similar to: Samba lock problem?

Greetings- I have not found discussed / documented what to do with machine accounts when moving a Samba PDC to new hardware. I have seen that uid/gid numbers must match between the old/new system. I am thinking to use adduser to accomplish that, then make the numbers on the new server match, using a text editor. After that, can I simply enter the machine account entries by hand with a text

Greetings- I am wondering if anyone from the Samba team would happen to have interest in creating official builds for Ubuntu? To add a twist, unfortunately I would not be fishing for 7.10 packages, but rather 7.04 as we ran into too many issues with 7.10 whereas 7.04 seems rock solid stable. Or, are there packages built of Samba releases for Ubuntu external to samba.org? Thanks, -- Michael

man smb.conf does not specifically say admin users supports @groupname syntax. Google turns up lots of examples of it being used, but everyone hanging their smb.conf's up to air does not mean they are 100% accurate either. Here, Samba 3.0.4 in PDC mode, I can not get it to accept the name of a group in /etc/group, user ID's only. -- Michael Lueck Lueck Data Systems Remove the upper

Is there a trick to append an additional directory level onto the defauly behavior of a [homes] share looking in /etc/passwd to find the users Linux home dir? It would offer a bit of protection if Windows clients ended up in say the WinHome directory within their Linux home directory when logging in from Windows so they are not tempted to tamper with their desktop settings files for Linux from

I'm in the process of setting up a domain controller (moving from a workgroup configuration). I've installed the latest version of Samba (3.0.5), and have configured it to work as a PDC. However, when I try and connect to the domain, I get an 'Access Denied' message after entering my userid and password. Here's the snip from the client system log: [2004/07/06 12:01:15,

I found the solution, or at least a work around, for my posting: "Can not grant SeMachineAccountPrivilege on Debian Etch" I ended up: 1) ssh to Debian Etch as root 2) smbpasswd -a root 3) issue the "net rpc rights grant ..." command SUCCESS!!! So, that raises the question that what MUST be executed as user root verses a member of ntgroup="Domain Admins"? I suspect

I downloaded the drivers from: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=pdrv&platform=win 7.4MB Adobe Universal PostScript Windows Driver Installer 1.0.6 - English 5/23/2002 And installed the Generic Driver, shared the printer and went the the print$ share - none of the expected files were in there ... any ideas???

Hello, and Happy New Year. My default working directory is getting very cluttered. I know that I should be using a different working directory for each project (I work in Windows), but do not know how to go about creating different ones and moving back and forth between them. I have read Venables & Ripley (Modern Applied Statistics with S-PLUS, 1994) but this seems out of date with respect

Hello. Please excuse this off-topic request, but I know that the question has been debated in summary form on this list a number of times. I would find a paper that lays out the advantages and disadvantages of using different types of SS in the context of unbalanced data in ANOVA, regression and ANCOVA, especially including the use of different types of contrasts and the meaning of the

Hello. I am trying to determine whether I should be using ML or REML methods to estimate a linear mixed model. In the book by Pinheiro & Bates (Mixed-effects models in S and S-PLUS, page 76) they state that one difference between REML and ML is that « LME models with different fixed-effects structures fit using REML cannot be compared on the basis of their restricted likelihoods. In

Hello, and please excuse this off-topic question, but I have not been able to find an answer elsewhere. Consider a value Z that is calculated using the product (or ratio) of two means X_mean and Y_mean: Z=X_mean*Y_mean. More generally, Z=f(X_mean, Y_mean). The standard error of Z will be a function of the standard errors of the means of X and Y. I want to calculate this se of Z. Can someone

Hello. I have a script in which I repeatedly fit a nonlinear regression to a series of data sets using nls and the port algorithm from within a loop. The general structure of the loop is: for(i in 1:n){ … extract relevant vectors of dependent and independent variables … … estimate starting values for Amax and Q.LCP…

Hello. I am sorry for posting a (seemingly) simple question, but I have just spent 2 hours trying to find the answer, without success. I want to make a histogram with conditioning on a factor, using Trellis graphics. However, I do not want any colours (only black and white) either in the histograms or in the strip. There must be some simple argument but I can’t find it. Here is my code so

To avoid angry replies, let me first say that I know that the use of Type III sums of squares is controversial, and that some statisticians recommend instead that significance be judged using the non-marginal terms in the ANOVA. However, given that type III SS is also demanded by some… is there a function (equivalent to drop1 for lm) to obtain type III sums of squares for mixed models using the

Hello. Following pages 342-347 of Pinheiro & Bates, I am trying to write a self-starting nonlinear function (a non-rectagular hyperbola) to be used in nonlinear least squares regression (and eventually for a mixed model). When I use the getInitial function for my self-starting function I get the following error message: > getInitial(photo~NRhyperbola(Irr,theta,Am,alpha,Rd),dat) Error

Hello. Slope estimates in lme are shrinkage estimates which pull the OLS slope estimates towards the population estimates, the degree of which depends on the group sample size and the distance between the group-based estimate and the overall population estimate. Although these shrinkage estimates as said to be more precise with respect to the true values, they are also biased. So there is a

Hello. I have to fit a mixed model from a repeated measures split-plot experiment in which the response variable is binary. This requires a generalised linear mixed model in which I can specify a binomial distribution. I can’t find the appropriate package in R. I have looked at glmmML, but it doesn’t seem to allow any mixed structure beyond a simple 2-level one. Can anyone point me to the

Hello. I want to plot the distribution of a continuous variable (y) in each of two groups on the same graph as histograms. I suppose one could call this a 2-d histogram? Can this be done in R?
