Greetings We just updated two RH9 servers to 3.0.14a-1 and are still seeing a lot of errors in the logs. They're not stopping us working but I would _really_ like to understand what is causing them. On the first server, in the logwatch, we get a whole swag of: samba: Unknown Entries: session opened for user janicer by (uid=0): 6 Time(s) session opened for user sonjap by

Hello, I'm trying to get my Eicon Diva 2.01 PCI ISDN card working with Asterisk and was told that I still have some chance if I tried using chan_capi. I tried compiling it (chan_capi) on two systems running 2.6 kernels, but got lots of errors. Before I go investigating - is it possible to compile chan_capi on 2.6 kernels? Or does it work with 2.4 ones only? Tomek

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

Hello, Is there a list of software phones which will work with Asterisk? For Linux and Windows? I don't have any hardware yet, and before I buy anything I would like to know how Asterisk really works (with software "phones" for example). Tomek

Hello, I have Samba 3 PDC and win2k sp4 client. I would like to install printer on a machine globally, for all users. To do this, I use: net use X: \\server\unattended /user:domain\unattended password rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /q /y /ga /in /n \\server\HP2000C First line is mounting share (Administrator is not logged to the domain), and the second line is to install printer.

Hello, I use Samba 3 as a PDC. When a user logs in, a user-specific script is executed for him/her, as stated in smb.conf: logon script = %U.bat This is handy when it comes to do some minor tweaks, but can become pain when one have to do bigger changes. Is it possible to execute also a "machine script" (for installing software etc.), and "group script" (users belonging

Hi, this is really great, you can get Windows command

I was wondering, if it's possible to set up Samba as a sort of a domain controller for Linux workstations? I'm thinking of benefits like roaming profiles, managing printers etc. Or perhaps for Linux there are better choices than Samba, when it comes to the office / school use (many users, many classrooms, many workstations etc.)? -- Tomek http://wpkg.org

I just wanted to know if the domain admin password is stored on the local machine, when that machine joins the domain? Or is it just used to authenticate, and it is not stored anywhere on the workstation? -- Tomek

I have made some changes to try and get the PDC working and now I am down to one thing where I believe the problem lies. All such documents on the setup show that the addition of users to the PDC should be added to passwd as well as LDAP but for my system that is not the case. I am running the listed software: Fedora Core 4 OpenLDAP 2.2.23 Samba 3.0.14a This is what currently happens when I

Hello, I just compiled and started Asterisk 1.0.2 following "Getting Started With Asterisk Version 0.1a" from http://www.automated.it/guidetoasterisk.htm I made only one change to default config files - I changed from using oss to alsa. I don't have any devices so far. I started asterisk from the command line: # asterisk -vc and I got this warning (this was also before I

Hi, I have been having issues with NTLMv2 on newly provisioned domains, using Samba 4.1 from backports on Debian Wheezy. Everything seems to be working fine, except for NTLMv2 authentication with Squid and "ntlm_auth" on newer Windows versions. If I set "Lmcompatibility" down on the Windows PCs, then authentication works, but that is temporary workaround at best. I have

I would like to have roaming profiles for one group of users (student1, student2), and local profiles for another group of users (Joe, Mary). Is it possible with Samba? From what I've tested, one can use either roaming profiles with a setting similar to the one below: logon path = \\%L\profiles\%G\%U Or local profiles, using the logon path empty: logon path = I have no clue how to

Hello, I want to be 100% sure that rsync copies something from one location to another. However, I did not see an option which would make rsync retry an operation if it failed for whatever reason (network was down when rsync started, or network went down during rsync was copying something, connection timed out etc.). For example, wget has an option like --tries=number Set number of retries

Hello, I just configured Samba 3 PDC + LDAP. The aim is to have a Samba 3 PDC + LDAP in each branch office; and there should be one user/password database. There are about 20 branch offices in different locations and users travel a lot between them with laptops. Each branch office has a below configuration: - Samba 3 PDC - slave OpenLDAP server There is also one central user/password

I am looking for some solution, working with Samba preferably, which would allow multiple users to work on one document. This means that if a user makes a change to the document, a previous version of that document is saved somewhere else. For example, user A opens a document (rw - read/write, ro - read-only document): rw \\server\share\document.txt User makes some changes, and saves it to

Hello, I've been trying to figure out if it's possible to replace Active Directory with Samba (+ OpenLDAP, Kerberos, DNS etc.) on Linux - but from what I've found I'm not sure. Is it possible, or partially possible (I don't need every feature of AD)? What additional software (besides Samba) will I need? What functionality will I loose? Where can I find any

I'm using PXE booting to make operating system installations. There is one problem with it - it won't work when BIOS or NIC doesn't support network booting. Is it possible to put pxelinux somehow on a CD or on a floppy? -- Tomek http://wpkg.org

I was wondering if there is a pstools / psexec (tools by Sysinternals) equivalent, which could be run on Linux machine to execute a process on a remote Windows machine?

Hi my problem is just like the subject, I could browse the shares with the same username & password but I can't login to the domain, I'm using samba 3.0.2.a with ldap backend, can anyone help me with this, I know it's been posted before but I can't find a solution. thanks
