Is possible to store the Group Policy Container (GPC) on a OpenLDAP? Is possible to store the Group Policy Template (GPT) on a Samba share? The idea is to manage windows desktop policies using the new Win200x GPOs without using an Active Directory. Any other hints?

Hi all, I've managed to install an ubuntu server as PDC, everything is working fine. However, i've got a few questions regarding profile ( M$ XP ) and unix accounts. 1. Roaming profile : I believed that when logging off a computer, user's profile was moved back to the server. But i can still find one. Is there anything to do for the profile not to be stored on pc ? 2. An account

Hello Mailinglist, I have created a local user "localuser" who is in the local group "localgroup" $ id uid=1001(localuser) gid=1001(localgroup) groups=1001(localgroup) My machine authenticates against Active Directory - works The AD-User "aduser" belongs to a domain group "adgroup" $ id uid=6161(aduser) gid=5513(dom?nen-benutzer)

Hi, I am running a Samba 2.2.7a on Redhat 7.3 in a NT domain. For authentication I am using the domainusers.This is done by Winbind 2.2.7a which verifies the existens of the users on the PDC. So I dont't have to create local users (/etc/passwd) for users who want to connect to the shares in the smb.conf. I authorise them by adding valid users = domain+domainuser to the smb.conf. This works

Considering the following page... http://us3.samba.org/samba/docs/man/guide/small.html First of, my compliments to John for some great examples to study. In my mind I see three levels of security: 1) Linux - such as SSH'ing into the Linux server, Linux accounts and groups come into play here 2) Samba PDC - "Domain Admins" "Domain Users" come into play here. Examples

I think you are talking about making it act like WSUS or RIS role. This is not possible (but would be cool).

Hi colleagues I am trying to implement security for my network with samba, I am using poledit, but it has very few choices, I am using nitrobit group policy, but this needs a serial, and I do not have it. Someone I can recommend a software like nitrobit to implement security to the network. -- -- Roylan Suarez Reyes Admin. Redes JC. Vinales roylan04012@pri.jovenclub.cu Telef: 793210

Can I deploy software/applications through group or domain policy with samba?

Greetings, I'm running Samba on a Debian stable server and have run into a problem I can't seem to get past. It's version 3.2.5. The basic setup is that it authenticates users via 'security = ads' and controls access to individual shares using local groups via 'valid users = @localgroup'. All of the users have accounts in /etc/password and are added to the groups in

List, Thanks tremendously to JC and JHT for guiding (nay, kicking) me toward getting ACLs to work on RHAS3. Reading the RH sysadmin guide about ACLs and searching elsewhere, as well as thinking for myself, were also a pre. Now for something completely different: High school in Amsterdam Netherlands: - RHAS3 - Samba 3.0.11 RPC, not ADS (no way we're upgrading while the bug reports keep

Hello, Server: Ubuntu Lucid server version Role: Samba file server (I administer it) Authentication: Against a Windows AD (I do not administer it) using winbind.

Hello! It seems to me that correct deletion of message in thunderbird still doesn't work with ThanderBird and dovectot 1rc1. As I've said before messages are not removed phisically from filesystem, just marked for deletetion. Though I'm not sure that this is dovecot bug and not ThunderBird. Anyone to clarify this issue ?
