Hello! I want to permit the root account to be called administrator from the win clients in my network. Therefore I have added 'root = administrator' in my /etc/samba/smbusers. I have also added 'username map = /etc/samba/smbusers' in smb.conf. When I try to log on as administrator from a windows client I get a message that the user does not exist. I am running samba 3 on

Hallo! Sorry for posting this two times - I forgot the subject!! I am running samba 3.01012 on a fc2 server. I have problems with samba/ cups for some of my printers, and samba is filling up /var/log/messages with the following lines: -printing/print_cups.c:cups_queue_get(900) -server smbd[23036]: Unable to get jobs for ipp://localhost/printers/[printer-name] - client-error-not-found The

Hi, first of all: my name is uli... i'm from bavaria/germany and i'm working with linux quite a long time (maybe 10 years). Now my "problem": my samba is setup with ldap-backend. my configuration with mandatory profiles is working quite good. i created a Default User - Profile in my netlogon-share (migrated from a windows-xp client). ntuser.dat has been renamed to ntuser.man.

Hi there, again me, again similar question. First of all, what is it, what I'd like to have: 1.) Every user in my System should use the same profile. In dsa.msc I gave every user as profile-path \\samba4\profiles\stud 2.) The users should not be able to change anything in that profile (I think changing ntuser.dat to ntuser.man should do the job, proposed i got step one managed ;) )

Hello all, I've been trying to figure out what the best way of doing the group policy thing is. We are running samba 3 on slackware 9 with winxp clients. We are a school. i'm unclear on how much AD is actually supported... OU GPO all that. so i decided to go the "administrative template" way (used to be .pol files) I'm thinking of having the students run off of a

Hi, I'm new to R and stats, and I'm trying to speed up the following sum, for (i in 1:n){ C = C + (X[i,] %o% X[i,]) # the sum of outer products - this is very slow according to Rprof() } where X is a data matrix (nrows=1000 X ncols=50), and n=1000. The sum has to be calculated over 10,000 times for different X. I think it is similar to estimating a co-variance matrix for demeaned

Hello, I have a PDC and a File (member) server for homes and profiles (Samba 3.4.17). For XP clients I have mandatory profiles with all user shell folders redirected to their respective home share. Now I'm adding win 7 clients to the mix and I want the same thing. It's (almost) working but I think my procedure is a bit dirty (i.e. I use "windows enabler" to build my ntuser.man

Hello all. I recently upgraded to Samba 3.0 (CVS HEAD) and finally have a working Samba-PDC with Windows 2000 and XP clients. Right now, I'm working with the profiles and I'd like to force some mandatory settings. I read something about using NTUSER.MAN. Can someone further explain this file and how to create it? Here's what I'd like to do: 1) My Documents path = H:\My

Hi, Yesterday I found big problems concerning my roaming profiles. They seem to work on some computers where they are always used, on some other the did not load properly (i.e. a default profile was loaded instead). After some debugging with userenv.log I found the very strange problem: case sensitivity for ntuser.dat!: [...] IsCentralProfileReachable: Testing <F:\testuser\ntuser.dat>

After having migrated my machines and user to Samba 4.3.11 on Ubuntu 16.04.1 (no domain upgrade, new provision, all accounts new defined) and old data copied over to the new machines, I have now a broader testbed and notice issues I didn't see prior to that. Having roaming profiles (defined in the user object in LDB)... Seemingly at random smbd keeps locks on NTUSER.DAT and ntuser.ini for a

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi folks, I also have the problem that the notepad pops up (with desktop.ini opened), everytime I logon. I know the workaround that was mentioned a thousand times before: hide files = /desktop.ini/ntuser.ini/NTUSER.*/ I put the file to the [profile]-share, to the [global]-share, but it won't work! An extract of my smb.conf: [profiles]

I need a little advice on finishing off a Samba PDC. I have Samba 3.0.0RC1 installed and working as a PDC on a Redhat AS 3.0 machine. It authenticates users nicely but the "roaming" profiles don't work. Tailing the samba log, I see the an attempt to access the users ntuser.dat file, which doesn't exist before the first logon, when logging in. The profile directory

Hi, is it possible to create the user profiles by copying a template, change file ownership and modify the SID in NTUSER.DAT using the profile tool? We have many problems with broken profiles. This has become time consuming and frustrating - when a user experiences an error or weird behaviour of an application I can never be sure wether the cause is a "wrong user error", a broken

Hi I have a problem with the cmd : profiles. I want to change the sid in a ntuser.dat. I have already read many message in mailing list who explain how to use profiles but it's dont't work. i use profile like this: profiles -c S-1-5-21-my-old-sid -n S-1-5-21-my-new-sid ./ntuser.dat on the output i see the new sid like i want but the change take no effect on the file when i do

What are the implications of locking the ntuser.dat file on the user's server profile? That is, if I make the ntuser.dat file read-only, what affects will that have on the client?

Hi experts I have a trouble in access rights I am running Samba 3.0.31 on Solaris 10 x86 64 bits as member server of an Active Directory 2003 R2 domain (MYDOMAIN) using Identity Management for Unix I set rights to access a sub folder of a Samba share.

Hello, I've got problems with my fresh install of samba. Here is the background : We have an old machine on which I installed samba, release 3.0.9. It ran a linux from scratch system, but I was not well documented about samba at the time I did this install, so here is how we used to use it. The users accounts were both created in the system (/etc/password) and for samba (smbpasswd). All

Following TOSHARG and "Samba 3 by examples" I implemented Folder redirection plus some security restrictions by building a custom NTUSER.DAT which is the default profile of my users. The problem is that each user has read/write access to its profile share therefore he can replace its NTUSER.DAT. This is why I chose mandatory profiles. Is there another solution? The problem with
