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?

Mandrake 10.0 LDAP PDC with ldapauth. Server is a member of the PDC but not using winbind since we have ldapauth. 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.

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

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

Why does it run as root if there is a separate setting just for this, i.e. "root postexec"? I ran with "echo $USER > /tmp/err.txt" as the command and it spat out "root".

Guys, I need a clue here.

Samba supports links now, right? I was recently experimenting with a setup for cross-platform access to a user's FireFox bookmarks. Unfortunately, FireFox overwrites the link to the bookmarks file on exit. How is this possible if Samba is interpreting the link correctly? Shouldn't the file that the bookmarks link points to be overwritten instead? Both the link and the file are on
