Hello all, I'm getting ready to upgrade an old outdated Samba installation. Moving to new hardware and Samba 3.0.7. And now I've got a little conundrum. How to I get the local SID from the old samba server. It's running Samba 2.2.2 and it doesn't appear to have the -X flag for smbpasswd that is supposed to be in 2.2.8 and it obviously doesn't have the "net

Over the last week I've upgraded one of my samba servers to FC3. I ran into some problems joining XP machines to the domain. Tracing back the problem I've found that FC3 has changed the behavior of the useradd/adduser script. It will no longer allow a UNIX account to be added to the system that has a '$' in it. I've verified this behavior by trying it at the command line,

All, As some of have no doubt found out, scripting is subtly different on 95/98 machines and NT machines. I have a logon script called by: logon script = xxxx\main.bat %G %U that works great for NT boxen. However it does absolutely nothing, no execution of main.bat at all for a W98 client. If I remove the parameters so it is: logon script = xxxx\main.bat it executes on the W98 box,

Hi All, How do I make windows file explorer to not show "Printers and Faxes" when clicking on SAMBA server while browsing for Microsoft Windows Network. Also, once I click on it, the "Add Printer" icon shows up. In smb.conf I have: show add printer wizard = no load printers = no But it doesn't seems to help. Any idea? Am I missing something in smb.conf or something

Hi, I'm using samba 3.0.4, with XP clients and server-side-profiles. Sometimes, my users save bookmarks with strange characters in them. These files are saved flawlessly on the server, but Windows is unable to copy them back to the local profile, and so the user can not log in. I'm using a iso8859-15 charset. I hope this is not a common question, I looked in the archive but I had been

Hi, I'm using samba 3.0.4 (stock debian packages) as a client and a server. The problem is I have a different uid on server (1001) to my client (1000) so when I try and access a file I appear to the client as not being the owner. I have tried the uid and gid options in smbmount, but they do not seem to have any affect (I assume the unix cifs extensions are overiding them). On the server

I have been trying to setup point and print on a debian testing box. I have a HP5550 printer and am trying to install the drivers through the add printer wizard, the drivers appeared to install fine. Afterwards I right clicked on the printer and clicked connect, per the SAMBA howto, this also appeared to work. When I tried to enter the properties screen of the local printer or on the share I

Hi I hope someone can help We currently have Windows XP Professional PCs that logon to an old Novell Netware 3.12 server. We?re just using the standard Windows Netware client, and each user has a Windows XP User account and password that matches their Novell one. When they logon to Windows, they are automatically authenticated to Novell. However, we are now in the final stages of

Comcast DNS servers enforce dnssec, AT&T does not (last I checked). If by chance your zone has DNSSEC enabled but mis-configured then it is possible the domain name you use for the dovecot server is not resolving because of a dnssec validation failure. I have never heard of comcast or any ISP blocking port 993. That would seem to be a violation of net neutrality rules. I use comcast

Yes, I am pretty sure about that. I originally was connected via AT&T DSL but wanted the fast access of cable modem. I need permanent IPs which required me to contract with Comcast buisness. Once I switched over, I was no longer able to access my imap server, which was as I mentioned, stunnel listening on the imaps port and forwarding to dovecot listening on the imap port. I was getting

I'm having an issue with my samba Domains. When I browse to Microsoft Windows Network with either Windows 2000 or WinXP I see two copies of the Domain. I see the proper domain (I'm using Matrix for testing) "Matrix" and I see another "Matrix " that appears to have 5 or 6 spaces or a tab appended onto the end. The domain w/o the spaces is the proper one, the one

Dovecot 2.3.4, FreeBSD 11.2 Due to comcast buisness ISP intercepting imaps I need to have my clients connect to non-standard port (9999). Previously I had been using stunnel to receive the imaps connection and forward it to the imap port over 127.0.0.1. But I would like to retire stunnel and have my imap clients connect remotely. I have configured the imap-login service - service imap-login {

Hi! I have Q, we have an application in the office that needs to be run on every computer. It is a "client interface" to our buisness database. On the MS machines, this one is run as a shortcut to the .exe file that resides on the fileserver. This, and 4 lines in the registry is all that is needed.(except for some DLL's of course) So, can I do something similar with wine on a Linux
