Hello, I'd like to know if with the current version of samba it is possible to limit the number of simultaneous login sessions? I have a lot of users which share their passwords despite being warned against it, so I was told to stop them.

Hello, Now I'm trying to move the LDAP backend from the master OpenLDAP server to a slave one. The ACL rules for all directories requires a "ssf = 112" (Security Strength Factor) just to be sure that all connections are properly encrypted. Also the slave directory has a referral directive pointing the master directory. Samba works perfectly with the slave directory except when

Hello friends, I'm having a problem with my home server (ASUS A7V133 motherboard) which has a horrible performance with ATA disks connected to an integrated promise controller.

Hi, maybe I didn't explained myself well. What i meant is that the user can't have the SID S-1-5-21-528226156-890416033-2029241632 but MUST have a sid like S-1-5-21-528226156-890416033-2029241632-xxxx ( where x is usually assigned automatically by the add user's script) Best Regards, Bruno Guerreiro -----Original Message----- From: Jos?

WHat is the significance to Samba of pam_password exop vs pam_password md5 in ldap.conf?

Hi all, Just a quick question about login scripts for a large number of users who change rooms a lot. I have several rooms each with a printer, and nearly a thousand users divided into two main groups - pupils and teachers who change rooms on a routine basis.
