Hi -- I'd like to try running Samba as a PDC simply for authentication -- that is without doing any profile management, i.e. I'd like Windows to not write anything to the network after logout. Is this possible with Samba? I'm not seeing an obvious answer to this. Thanks! -jag -- Joshua Ginsberg <joshg@brainstorminternet.net> Brainstorm Internet Network Operations

I have Samba version 3.0.2a-3mdk with an LDAP backend. Works great but I can't seem to get user manager for domains to work with it. I'm thinking that perhaps it might be a samba bug that has probably since been corrected. Can anyone validate this idea?

Hello -- I'm testing out using 3.0.3 from the Fedora Core 2 distro (recompiled from SRPM to include ldapsam) as a PDC with an OpenLDAP backend. I've got the PDC functions working excellently. I've got Roaming Profiles (with the PDC as the profile host) partially working, but I can't get the full functionality I want. I have two test workstations that I'm working with. I

Basically this just means that I used: net rpc join -U Administrator%PASSWORD I've been going by the HOWTOs and books from the beginning. I even have the Samba HOWTO Guide and Reference in dead tree format. Today I tried using a simple setup from this site:

OK, just went through the research on how to set up scalable LDAP backends. By scaleable I mean without having Samba use the root dn to access ldap. This way, if you are going through the logs, you will be able to tell which domain controller is doing what. As far as I know, it *HAS* to be done this way because the posixGroup schema is way out of date (it wont take a dn as a member). This

Hello, I'm about to deploy Samba PDC and several BDCs. As far as I understand Samba and domain logons, this means that a user will be able to log onto any server, with his workstation choosing a domain controller that is probably the closest/fastest etc. one. As a consequence, this also means, that on each server there has to be a copy of a profile of a given user, right? If so, how can

Greetings NG- I'm putting together a Samba domain for the first time, using 3.0.2a-Debian.

Hi all, I am running samba 3.0.6 on Linux and am wondering if anyone knows if it is possible to delete a print driver from the driver database? I have around 20 printers running off of this print server and occasionally we remove all of a certain type of printer. Also, for some reason, the drivers sometimes seem to become corrupt and it would be nice to be able to entirely remove a driver and

I have a couple of Windows 2000 boxes that only accept logons from users who have logged onto the system before. For new users the logon appears to succeed, proceeds to "Loading your personal settings" and then the following error appears - Windows cannot log you on because the profile cannot be loaded. Contact your network administrator. DETAIL - The system cannot find the file
