Hello, I am having problems with all my clients (windows 2K and 9x) that don't have rights to modify printer settings, like tray or page size.

I've been fiddling lately with Samba 3 coupled with openldap, nss_ldap, pam_ldap and the smbldap-tools to create a PDC. Following various examples, most things work, but I have an issue with changing passwords from Windows. If I manually change a password with smbldap-passwd, the script correctly adjusts the sambaPwdMustChange attribute according to what defaultMaxPasswordAge is set to. If

I've seen this asked before in various forums and even on here, but never answered; here is a list of the symptoms and what I have done, hopefully someone here will have a solution.

Hi All, I finally signed up for the list after years of using Samba successfully - a testament to the quality of Samba. Yet now I have a problem with the point-and-print functionality.

Hi, I've just upgraded an old samba 3.0.23 on an old Fedora Core 5 to samba 3.5.4 using an rpm built from the source.

I've been at this for a few weeks, and have read quite a bit on the subject. I try to follow "Samba-3 by Example" as much as I can. I'll apologize in advance if my problems should be discussed elsewhere. Samba's involvement is integral, but I have no reason to suspect Samba is at fault. I'll start by describing what is working. DHCP and DNS look fine. Samba
