Hi All, We are migrating users from Linux (Mandrake 9.0) and Novel NetWare 6.0 to Windows 2000 Active Directory. We have migrated successfully user from Novel Netware to Windows 2000 but facing problem in Linux Users. Do you know any utility which can help us out? So, we can move users IDs and password to Windows 2000 active Directory instead of manually creating more 900 users in W2K AD. Thanks

Hi, I am hoping someone can kick me up the learning curve (!) on Virtualization: We have an old piece of data logging software that was written in Turbo Pascal 6 using a file I/O module tuned to Netware and so it expects its data files to be on a Netware server and will not access them locally or via an MS/Samba share - essentially, it uses direct NCP calls for parts of its data access. The

Hi all, Allow me to quickly sketch our backup situation: we have about 40 sites. On each site there's a Rsync client on an NT machine (Cygwin). In the main site we have a huge Win2K fileserver which acts as a Rsync server. I'm doing tests now with syncing the volumes of several Netware servers on the sites (to which the Rsync NT clients have a mapping) to the Win2K server. Initially we

Hullo, all. I diligently consulted the suggested reading on the way in: > Welcome to the rsync@lists.samba.org mailing list! PLEASE READ THIS > IMPORTANT ETIQUETTE MESSAGE BEFORE POSTING: > http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html 'Twas a quick read, given that I'm the co-author. ;-> I recently received an odd inquiry from someone I didn't know at all,

Hello, I've been Googling and O'Reillying around this problem for the last week without success, so I'm either stupid or it's not possible. My money's still on stupid. Can someone confirm that I can't do what I want to do: - Have a SuSE 9.1 Linux box running Samba 3.0 exporting shares by SMB. - Have users log into Windows boxes running a NetWare client,

Hi all, I am trying to migrate a NetWare file server to samba (on Red Hat 9). My problem is that unfortunatelly samba is somehow painfully slow, when we run DOS programs from it on the client machines. The NetWare server is an ancient machine. P1, probably. The Samba server is P4 3G, 1G RAM, RAID mirroring, etc. We are running and old DOS program on the client machines, and when it's

Howdy All, I am the adminstrator in a school which has netware 4.11 ( five servers in the nds tree )as its main student platform. This has been working very well over the past 6 years or so. The school has the ability to obtain a microsoft solution at no cost ( except for the new hardware required, which is the reason for this email in the first place ). Advice and opinions are sought on the

Howdy everyone, I'm new to this list and new to Samba (although others at my company have experience with it). Anyway, I'm sure this has come up many times in the past but I have several Netware servers that people at remote sites need access to. The clients are Windows 95/98/NT, they all connect to their own NT domain (one domain per site), and they do NOT want to install the Novell

I am using Rsync to backup 4 Linux/Samba servers to a Netware 6.5 server over a VPN. Also using cyRsync to backup XP computers to the same Netware 6.5 server ovre a LAN. Rsync is run from a cron job on the Linux servers and the actual process works fine. However, I have found that when I rsync to the Netware Server from either Linux/Samba or Xp, the file Date Modified is changed to something like

I'm getting samba setup, and it seems to be working. I have PDC/BackupPDC issues to resolve, and want to change things so the NT PDC authenticates users instead of setting them up using smbpasswd. Right now, I can access the samba box from Win98 and WinNT workstation with "manually setup" smbpasswd's. I have been testing performance and am a little disappointed, I hoped samba

Does this list supports the NetWare version (rsync.nlm)? if not does anyone know of a list that does? I'm having all sorts of issues with this ported version on my NetWare 6.5 server. Thanks Jon L.

I have just installed the IRIX binary version (2.2.2) on an SGI Indy called "indy2" which is running IRIX 6.5.10. I then started to work through the tests in DIAGNOSIS.txt documents and all was well until test 8. To try to get things going I reduced the smb.conf file to the following: [global] workgroup = indy2grp [homes] guest ok = no read only = no [tmp]

I'm a software developer at Novell. I have been tasked with porting OpenSSH to the NetWare 6.0 OS. I would like to include my NetWare specific changes,#ifdef'd of course, in the portable releases at some point. Whom should I contact with regard to this? And are there any guidlines I can look at online to minimize any disturbance this may cause to other platforms? Any assistance that

Hello Sorry for the newbie question.. I am new to Windows environment. I have setup a Samba -Version 1.9.18p10 on a Solaris 2.5.1 m/c. I want to hook WIN _NT and 95 /98 clients to it. The Win clients are on the same network and are also hooked to other Netware servers. I am not sure how this is done. I have set up entries for the Samba server in the 'lmhosts' file. The

I have a couple of questions on Samba that I haven't found in any documentation. 1.) How do you set and manage Quotas for user folders on Samba file system? 2.) Dose it have support and connection to Novell Netware 5.1 to 7.0 beta relese? (client to Netware or Gateway services to Netware?) 3.) Is 3.0 beta and final release will be avalable under mandrake 9.0? Please respond to these

Hi, I run rsync, with a Netware-directory mounted on a linux system (using ncpfs) as DESTINATION of the copy. This configuration works fine, but rsync incorrectly sets the archive bit (modify) for ALL the files included in the transfered directory (both modified and not modified). In consecuence, the incremental backups on my netware server don't work. Any help will be apreciated.

I'd like to migrate a Netware 5.0 serve to Samba and LDAP. I'm wondering how I might export the usernames, passwords, and perhaps group memberships to the destination LDAP. If I can get the data into LDIF form, I'm okay from there. Does anyone know how the passwords in Netware 5.0 are encrypted? I hope to bring them over, but reseting the passwords is not out of the question (just

Dear Experts, I got Two Netware 6 Servers in the Same LAN. Server A is a main server (File Server). I'ld like to configure Server B as Backup server for Server A with RSync.

I have attached a diff file with the changes to existing OpenSSH source files to accomodate the NetWare platform. All changes are #ifdef wrapped using one in one of the following defines: HAVE_NETWARE - Building for NetWare USE_EDIR - Using eDirectory(TM) for authentication. NICI - Using Novell International Cryptography Infrastructure (NICI) I have successfully built the OpenSSH-3.5p1

I'm using an old version of Samba 1.9.18p8 (it's the only one that'll compile on the system I'm using it on) and am having trouble with Win98 clients, 2000/XP clients work OK. Windows 98 can see the server and see the shares but can only open files as read only and cannot browse and sub folders within the share. If anyone can shed any light on this I'd be grateful. Cheers
