I have a network where we have a main site with a PDC, and two remote sites with BDCs. The backend is LDAP which is slaved to the remote sites, Samba is 2.2.8a, the main server is part of the Suse Linux OpeneXchange Server, the other two servers are Suse Standard Server 8. What I wanted to do was to have users at the various sites map one drive from their 'local' server. Behind the

We are having great problems printing from XP clients through our Samba server. We are using the Adobe PS driver, and are configured for automatic driver download/install from the server. Samba is 2.2.8a and part of a Suse OpenExchange server, printing is through CUPS. Printers are an assortment of different makes of Postscript (and compatible) lasers. Basically, we have 'wierd'

I've downloaded Samba 2.2.6 (binaries) from SCOs Skunkware site, but when I try and run smbclient I get a message : dynamic linker : smbclient : error opening /usr/local/lib/libncurses.so.4 Killed I've checked and there is no libncurses.so.4 (or libncurses.<anything> for that matter) on the system. I've also failed to find anything relevant in either the list archive or SCOs

Sorry of I'm going over old ground ... We are in the process of putting in a Suse Linux OpenExchange Server (SLOX) which at present includes Samba 2.2.5*. We are also attempting to use this as a PDC for XP clients that we are going to be rolling out. Now, everything seems to be going down the pan, and it looks like the problem is that XP has dropped support for 'old style'

I have a network with several sites, and all clients (mostly win9x) using one WINS server (Samba on RH Linux). The different sites have one or more workgroups each, and I want all workgroups to be visible and browsable for all clients. As far as I can make out, the clients at the various networks can only browse the workgroups which are either local or the one the WINS server is a member of. Not

I'm not quite sure whether this is a plain browsing problem, or a wins problems, or ... I had wins running on one machine (Samba(2.0.5a)/SCO Unix), but my main file server on another (Samba (2.2.1a)/Linux).

Dear Mailinglist, this morning I had a very strange problem with my SuSE Groupware-Server SLOX 4.1. The webmail-access was very slow and even with thunderbird the access to my mailboxes was not okay. I rebooted the whole system, but the problem still was there. I thought, this may be a problem with cyrusd, but I realized, that the error was somewhere deeper in the system, maybe in the

Hi all, I have setup a Samba3 PDC and BDC with an LDAP backend to replace my current NT 4.0 infrastructure. This configuration is working fine. I also am testing integration of SuSE OpenExchange and would like to have it authenticate logons via the domain LDAP database. >From my preliminary testing i have found that OpenExchange attempts an LDAP search for some information regarding the cyrus

Hi, using samba 2.2.5-UL (on a SuSE-SLOX-System) we have to mangle long pathnames to short ones. We need this for some of our apps which generate batch-files (*.bat) for compilation. Normally this works correctly, exept for a directory named "Only_for_generation". This directory is mangled into "Only_~%0" (it' s NULL at the end). And this is the problem. In

Hello! I'm the email admin for a reasonably large Exchange/NT system, trying to make a go of a Linux/SLOX replacement as an example of what can be done. Obviously, to do my job I need to run a fair bit of Windows software, and this is where Wine comes in. One of the real biggies is the NT Server Administration tools (the ones provided to run from a workstation) such as USRMGR.EXE and

Can anyone suggest any apps/scripts for bulk generating passwords from real names (e.g. jsmith from John Smith) that would check for duplicated in an existing smbpasswd or passwd file and append a number to the username (e.g. jsmith1, jsmith2).

This is probably more of a Cups issue, however, I have a question about the spool files from sharing Cups printers in Samba. The spool directory on my Samba server seems to be holding print job files from past print jobs. I'm wondering what is the proper way to eliminate these files? Any help is appreciated. Tim

Hi List. I have some weirdness here which I have no idea how to resolve. I have been runing samba for the las two years on a suse 8.2 box with no problem at all. Last week I had a file system failure and was forced to rebuild. Rebuilt using SuSE 9.1 and SAMBA 2.28 When I started restoring data, I noticed that all files with .eml extensions could not be written to disk.!?!? As an experriment, i

Hi All, Has anyone managed to get a Mac (OS X I'm using) to authenticate to a Samba/NT domain? I've been playing with this all day, and am not getting very far - smbd, nmbd and winbind (3.0.2) all run fine, I can see the domain, can connect individually to windows shares, wbinfo shows users (and groups, I assume), but there's no hints as far as what the equivalent to

I have users that belong to several groups. I want a logon script to be run for each of the groups to which a user belongs. For example, when I logon, I want admin.bat, users.bat, and someothergroup.bat to run. On Novell I used to use 'if Member of groupName...', but I don't know how to do this in Samba.. Thanks, Dean
