Appologies for double posting this. I managed to add it to the end of an old thread instead of starting a new one, anyone recommend a mail client that shows threads? :) Hi, I'm trying to run 2 domains from the one server. I've got my 2 config files and both servers run, bound to the correct interface if started normally. The problem I have occurs when I try to start both at once.

Hi there, I am facing some file locking problem with samba. Below are the environment : OS : Fedora Core 1 Samba version : 3.0.0-15 I have used security = share, oplocks =no, level2 oplocks=no, locking = yes, strict locking = yes. The detail of the smb.conf can be provided. The situation is like this : When I use openoffice (in a windows 2000 server machine) to access the file in the share

Hi folks, I have Samba 3.0.10 with SuSE 9.1 running and a problem with the recycler feature of Samba. Following setup: - User A deletes file F1 in directory D - Samba produces file .recycler/D/F1 - D has permissions -rwx------, F1 has permissions -rwxrw-r-- (owner A) - User B deletes file F2 in directory D - F2 doesn't show up in .recycler/D So all files User B deletes in directory D are

s there is trick to fully copying an existing local profile over to your new domain profile after you join the Samba domain? I tried the profile copy under System Properties, on the advanced tab and although it completed, I log on and MS office wants to load files from the CD and my start menu seems to be missing the entire left side column. When I look at the size and number of files my

Hello! I've got into problems with simultaneous access to files on samba server. Two (or more) people from different computers may open the same file and may independently change it (with openoffice, for example). Certainly, this is not the expected behavior. If the file is shared on windows machine, when the first user opens it, he gots RW permission, while the next one(s) may open this

Recently i've moved to samba 3.0 beta1 and noticed, that drivers for shared printers couldn't be uploaded from WindowsXP GUI any more. After copying files to \\smbserver\print$\W32X86 folders it says something like "Unable to install HP LaserJet 2100 PCL6, Windows2000 or XP, Intel driver. Operation could not be completed". It works OK on samba3.0alpha20, but doesn't work

I have upgraded recently from alpha22 to rc1. While trying to access printer properties from XP, i'm getting error "Runtime Error! program: C:\WINDOWS\explorer.exe abnormal program termintation". Printing is not possible as well. This error is reproducable from any WinXP computer on network on any shared by samba printer. Printers are HPLJ2100, drivers are latest PCL6 downloaded

Hello, I run a Windows domain based on Samba 3 and I am searching for a way to distribute/deploy software to clients. I.e., a user logging on to a client, software should be automatically installed or upgraded. Is there any common solution? I heard of MSI packages, but I don't know if it is necessary to create MSI packages of all installations... Thanks Florian

Hello there, where are the Windows file permissions (i.e. ACL) stored when using Samba? How can I change them from within Linux? Or is it only possible with the Windows file permissions dialogue? Thanks Florian

Hello there, I am playing around with Asterisk the first time and it really looks great. ;-) However, I have one problem: Any SIP device can connect to my PBX. How can I requre logon for SIP users and deny access in the case of wrong or missing credentials? Thanks Florian

Hello, I have found out that a domain administrator is always mapped to root in the UNIX filesystem: drwx------ 2 jive smbguests 1024 2004-12-23 18:59 jive drwx------ 13 salsa smbusers 1024 2004-12-23 18:58 salsa drwx------ 13 root smbadmins 1024 2004-12-23 18:56 tango jive is a domain guest user, salsa a domain user and tango a domain administrator. Is it possible to change the root

Hello there, I'm trying to set up Samba as a PDC for Windows XP Professional (SP2). It seems to work fine. Machine accounts are created automatically, passwords between Unix and Samba users get synced, I can logon, profile directories are created - but there's a problem. I know that this is well-known, but it drives me crazy and I don't know any solution. First of all, the

Hello, I am looking for a command-line utility to automatically purge one Maildir folder. I want to periodically run sa-learn from cron, and after the spam learning folder has been added to the Bayes database, its contents should be deleted. I've searched a bit, but only found a few old utilities or some telnet+expect scripts, which both didn't look too reliable. Is there any

Hello, I use Thunderbird as IMAP client and do a lot of server-side filtering with Sieve scripts. To be notified of new mails, I want to check all folders (a lot of them...) at once for new mails, and not only the inbox. According to http://kb.mozillazine.org/Checking_for_new_messages_in_other_folders_-_Thunderbird it should be sufficient to enable one setting -- given that the IMAP server

Hello, I've searched the Howtos, but I did not find anything, so I'm asking this question onlist. When are connections between Samba and the client encrypted? I run Samba 3.0.20a on a network with Windows XP SP2 and some Windows 98 machines. - Are connections always encrypted? Are there any smb.conf settings I have to make in order to get encryption working (server signing?)? - Are

Hello, is it possible to define the sender for the Dovecot Sieve implementation's vacation extension? It seems to be impossible to add, e.g., a name, or choose a different sender address. Thanks, Florian

Hi! I've been trying to find a solution to a printer problem. All I found is a message posted to this list about a year ago, which describes about the same problem (the message is in the end of this mail). So, each time I try to print from windows 2000 or XP I get this error message: Microsoft Visuall C++ Runtime Llibrary Program: C:...Winword.exe Abnormal program termination I have three

Hi, I had a simple domain under samba 3.5, but because of our company's complex structure, management made a call to move to win2k8 infrastructure. And my task is to do this migration seamlessly as possible. My plan was to upgrade to samba4, then to add win2008 DC, transfer FSMO roles, then demote samba server and shut it down. However, i run into some troubles i couldn't solve... I

Hello.

Hello fellow list members, does anyone knows of a good HOWTO (or a book) for setting up Samba as a PDC? I have been dealing around with the Samba HOWTO collection, but to be honest, this is a hard job. There are some errors in it and descriptions are not this good. I even don't know what all the tools are for. I'm really experienced in Linux server stuff, but this one drives me mad.
