similar to: Copying/migrating profiles

Hi everyone, I'm about to install a Samba PDC in a network that previously was working as a workgroup. All the users have been logging into their local machines as "administrator" and all with the same password. What I would really like to do is to move their profiles with them, but as they are all using the same username and the like I can see this is going to cause problems. So

SuSE 8.2/Samba 3.0.4-SerNet-SuSE One expects file's owner and date to be preserved when copying a file to an SMB share. But if a file with the same name is already there there are two different ways as to who will ultimately own the new file and what date will be stamped depending upon whether the file belongs to the copier or to someone else. If I try to copy a file to a samba share which

Recently, we added a Sharp AR-M550N copier to our network. This device functions as an MFC (scanner/printer/copier). When I attempt to install the drivers to the SAMBA server, I receive an error message which displays briefly and then I receive the following error message when trying to access the properties of the printer. Function address 0x3119c9f caused a protection fault. (exception code

Dear Samba Users, I set a samba share (4.8.1) on a linux (centos 7) as server member ; authentication is done against a AD win 2012 R2 server through winbind. I thought authentication was using kerberos, but I checked log and found : Auth: [SMB2,(null)] user [MYDOMAIN]\[mydomainuser] at [mar., 11 juin 2019 10:21:42.000927 -03] with [NTLMv2] status [NT_STATUS_OK] workstation [CANONDCE0BD]

Hi all, after the news that samba 4 is now supporting user lockouts after bad password attempts we need to plan our roadmap on migrating from Samba 3 to samba 4. We currently have Samba version 3.0.7-1.3E.1 installed with (passwd) database as a backend. I would appreciate if anyone can guide me on the migration process. Our old server Centos 4.4 Samba 3.0.7 (Master browser)

I need to copy over 100TB of data from one server to another via network. What is the best option to do this? I am planning to use rsync but is there a better tool or better way of doing this? For example, I plan on doing rsync -azv /largefs /targetfs /targetfs is a NFS mounted filesystem. Any thoughts? TIA -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

I wouldn't normally hurry you guys about a package release, (because you're doing an excellent job), but any eta on the above? samba-3.0.9-1.3E.1 is in the current repos and that install seriously fubar'd my ADS + winbind setup. samba-3.0.9-1.3E.2 (which requires krb5-libs-1.2.7-31) fixes the problem. NB, samba-3.0.7-1.3E.1 (the old version) was fine for me, its only this

Hi, I found this article http://cyll.org/blog/tech/2006-08-09-themongrelcomet.html on mongrel and COMET very interesting. I ran the code, and it worked just as Christopher explained. The one thing I don''t understand is why mongrel can only handle 1 connection at a time. I thought that mongrel used a thread per connection. It appears that each registered handler can only handle 1

Hello all, Does anybody share HP Deskjet 6940 and HP Deskjet 6988 off a samba server successfully? I currently using Samba versions 3.0.24 Ubuntu Fiesty Fawn in my production environment. I also the issue occurs on my laptop which is running Gutsy Gibbon 7.10 which uses Samba 3.0.26. The issue is when my users try to print multiple copies they can not through the samba server. These printers

Hi, thanks for your help. Your suggestion makes sense, however I think there should be some way for users to be able to change an expired password from login dialogue.  Actually I had a problem doing this previously with NT4 style Samba domain and never looked into a resolution.  Now that I've found Samba does AD style domain, I'm excited to use it in several customer locations.  Since I

I have a network of 2K and XP clients that I am migrating to a domain using Samba 3 as a PDC. I have the domain working quite well after quite a bit of tweaking. My problem is that I want people to logon to the domain, but I also want them to keep their profiles from their local users. How can I go about this? -- Andrew Gaffney

I've asked a similar question before, but this is slightly different - is there a reasonably good, cheap all-in-one scanner-copier-printer-fax device that works well with Linux, CentOS in particular? (Last time I asked about a scanner only, although it was in the context of a Canon MP160, which I never did get to work and wound up taking back.) Thanks. mhr -------------- next part

Hi, I'd like to be able to log file transfers to/from an SSH server (both through scp and sftp-server). Perhaps I'm not looking in the right places, but I don't see a way of doing this in the current code. The "scponly" shell goes some (small) way towards doing this, however, it logs patterns rather than filenames in scp transfers. I have even less success with sftp. If

Hi everyone, I''m new to Rails and Ruby, and have been working my way through the Pickaxe and Agile Rails books for the last week or so. With a background in payroll apps I found that the default ActiveRecord mapping of decimal columns to float variables really bothered me! Financial calcs need high levels of accuracy and floats just don''t give you that. I know there are a bunch

I'd like to start scanning our boxed up documents. I'd say about 30,000 files total. Mostly to eliminate the boxes of paper we have. I'd like to scan them, store them, Have some sort of index, and be able to retrieve them on multiple machines. I think PDF would be the desired format. I'd like be able to set some permissions as well. (not a deal breaker...) I've searched

Well, I have been busy getting child #4 off on her way to college (joining #2). So now it is quite with just the 2 youngest and I can get work done again!. tar stops as follows: /root/.nautilus/metafiles/x-nautilus-desktop:%2F%2F52F.xml tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors. I thought perhaps this is some file locked becuase I was running from a terminal session in gnome. So I
