This is great!!

Hello, Just wondering what I should be using for the password change program on a BDC. Should it be: passwd program = /usr/bin/smbpasswd -r <PDC address> %u I'm having a problem with passwords not staying in sync between the PDC and BDC with pass backend ldap. The systems are all Fedora Core 4, Samba 3.0.14a, openldap 2.2.23 Kent N

Hello, I have a question about machine accounts. I using Samba 3.0, OpenLDAP 2.1.30 and Berkeley 4.2.52 on backend on RedHat machines. I also have 3 slave/BDC's and 1 master/PDC Right now all of my users and groups exist entirely in the LDAP directory. I have a few accounts in addition to the normal system accounts that are used for emergency access. All authention and group enumeration uses

Hello, It's me again. I'm running Samba 3.0 and LDAP 2.1.23 on a RedHat 8.0 system. I am able to browse shares and home directories. I get a: Logon failure: unknown username or bad password when I try to connect a W2k machine. For Win/95/98 the system already works. I believe it is setup OK I need to work on scripts that work with MMC. I just want a basic connect a w2k machine right

Has anybody done such a thing as this? I'm looking to make this transition as smooth as possible. I have the new fileserver up and running, and I'm using rsync to keep the Novell data current on the Samba server. Any words of advice on transferring the users and groups and permissions over to the new server in the least painful way possible? I have some idea that Novell uses LDAP

Hello, Is it really possible that just the user root with the samba password can join workstations into the domain? I have also some other users who are domain administrator, but with this users i can't join any workstations into the domain. This is mor me a important security point, because I want to give some people the acces right to join workstations into domain and only this function.

Hi, We've just put in a Samba fileserver to replace our windows box for our School District and it seems to be working great. I have a question about defining some specific permissions though. We set up 'Drop boxes' for teachers that kids can drag files into, but they don't have read permission so they can't read each others submitted work. Here's what is looks like on

Here is my rsync command as it currently stands. /usr/local/bin/rsync -vvv --stats -Pzrtpl --delete --password-file=/export/home/webuser/.appprod --log-file=/export/home/webuser/logs/rsync-log -F /export/home/ webuser at appprod::dprweb_extranet/ > rsync-test Here is the current .rsync-filter file. + das + em + enf + internal + itb + medtox + pml + psb + reg + whs + htdocs + docs - /* -

Hi, I have a problem. I upgraded from samba 2.0.7 to 2.2.3 recently, and one of my 2 printers have driver issues. Whenever I print to SAVIN 2545, I get binary and hieroglyphics, so I assumed that it's driver-related. I can print to our HP8100 just fine. Some machines were still configured with: "\\server\savin", LAN Manager Printer These machines STILL print fine. However, if

Hi, I am running samba and lprng for 4 hp laserjets. Sometimes a samba print job goes to the wrong printer. Normally everything works just fine. Shown below is the lprng acct log file enries for the concerned print job. Please notice that the print job was supposed to go to hp4050-mail, but ended up in hp8100. Any suggestions are much appreciated. Thanks Balagopal jobstart

Morning Everyone, I'm busy doing a rebuild of my home server and am tossing between VMware and KVM for this build. I already have experience with ESX, we use it at work, but I'm debating trying out KVM for a while. The server itself is a budget build using a Supermicro X8SAX board w/ i7-950 & 12GB RAM, LSI 3081 SAS RAID (1068e based), rolled into a NorcoTek 16 Bay SAS case. Not fancy

Hello, I thought I had this all figured out but I don't. I have a RedHat 8 system using LDAP 2.1.23 as backend to Samba 3.0.0. I wasn't able to get machines to join the domain so I used the debug option in slapd -d 10 to see what Samba was sending the LDAP server. It looked like it was resolving my admin to the guest account. I went back to check groupmap list and got the following error

I trying to share a printer using samba, but is not working. I already share the files but the printer didn't workout. I'm using CUPS. Can anyone help me solve this problem?

Hi there, Some days ago I've sent a mail talking about some problems printing from a Windows machine to a printer installed on a Linux server (running CUPS 1.1.19 and SAMBA 2.2.7) What was happening is when I send a page to be printed, I way 15/20 secs per page. I've installed the network printer with the correct HP drivers. After trying a LOT of stuff, I've installed the

hi there, I''ve been googling for a while but cant find anything of interest... Has anyone tried running Windows Home Server as a Xen guest? I would like to use WHS on my Home server as it greatly simplifies the management of storage, however i''d like the server to be able to other things aswell, hence wanting to use Xen... Any ideas?

Hi: I am haviong problems with Landscape mode on our HP printers (many models). I am running 2.2.7a on two different servers. One is using the "old style" printing (using "printer driver file" parameter). The other is using the newer printing system. It is the same code on both. Both are Solaris systems. For the old one, the drivers are installed on the client, for the
