Hi this is really a last resort as I'm literally pulling my hair out over AIX and Samba and cannot find any threads on this particular issue. Basically we have 3 systems running AIX 5.1 and Samba 2.2.7 We upgraded one system to Aix 5.2 and everything works no problem. Upgraded the next two and both will not join the domain using the smbpasswd -j domain-name -r ny0000000 -U

Hello all, Am trying to set up a guest account for employees from other offices to come in the office to login and do stuff. I want to block access to all public drives so this is what I've done: Consider the SAMBA server in Office A and I want to create a guest account so that people from Office B and C can access. There is a public drive that everyone in Office A can edit, and a drive

Hi all, A bug popped up recently when I upgraded to fedora core 2 (from core 1). Whenever I used the bitmap() function, ghostscript complained that it couldn't handle png or tiff devices. This was NOT a bug with R. It was with the version of ghostscript shipped with core 2. Going to rawhide and getting ghostscript 7.07-29 (core 2 comes with 7.07-25) solved this problem. Unfortunately, I

Hi Think this is probably straightforward, but I don''t know enough about rails to work it out, so was wondering if anyone can help I keep on running into this error when I''m deploying my app: "FastCGI: server ".../public_html/public/dispatch.fcgi" stderr: ../config/../app/views/items/_side_share.rhtml:8: warning: Object#id will be deprecated; use

Hi all, Due to a security breach at my office recently, we need to log successful / failed log-ins.? I've put in "log level = 3" in smb.conf on our active directory domain controller which seems to log what we need, however this is generating massive log files, due to it logging every file opening/closing by all users.? How do I log successful/failed log-ins without having to

Hi all, We're a small charity and we've got a working and stable Debian 9 AD system using one Samba server (version 4.9.5-Debian) and 4 x Windows 10 Pro clients.? The server has two shared folders - "Profiles" for roaming profiles and "users" for user's home directories. We've just got delivery of two donated computers, and we got 2 new staff members.? I

Hello all, I've got a simple active directory server set-up with 5 computers and about 5 users which works reasonably well, but recently, when an user changes to a different computer, it takes about a hour for the user to log in.  However, future log-ins on the same computer is pretty much instant, but the exact same problems occurs when the user changes computers - even to one

Hello, I'm aiming to migrate a few Windows 2000 Server boxes to Linux with Samba and I would like to check what Samba can do before actually comitting myself to this idea. There are a few servers, all located in different locations, connected to one central server. The remote servers contains files only, and the central server controls internet access and has Exchange installed on.

Rowland, Thank you so much for replying!  I'm not exactly sure of the issues, but it includes very slow log-in times (>30 minutes if I move to another computer I've not used previously) and the KDC doesn't work.  I've tried joining the two servers, but it stopped the new one from working entirely, and I had to wipe the server and start again.  I've now spent some time

Hi all, So I've set up a new Samba server for our small office.  As it's completely separate to the old one, I had to use rsync to transfer files over to the new server.  Unsurprisingly, the permissions on the freshly transferred files are incorrect - what's the best way to reset permissions? Many thanks! Cheers - Piers

Hello all, We're running a Samba AD DC and we want to move to a new server. The old server is slightly misconfigured and have some issues, and the new server has already been set up freshly set up with no issues and everything working fine.  I need to move users, groups & passwords from the old server to the new one without moving configuration and retaining the old issues, am hoping

Hi all, I've decided to completely replace an old AD with a fresh, brand new one - the only thing linking the two is that I've transferred the user profiles & home folders over to the new one and I'm testing this configuration by disconnecting one of the Windows 10 computers from the old AD and then connecting it to the new AD. Old AD: Name - ad.domain.intranet IP -

Does anyone know how do you get acts_as_ferret to automagically update non-standard fields? I''ve followed Rails Envy''s tutorial (http://www.railsenvy.com/2007/2/19/acts-as-ferret-tutorial#nonmodel) to get aaf working across different models. And once the index is built it searches fine. In my (main) model, I''ve put: acts_as_ferret :fields => [ :name,

Hi all, An user queried whether the error "Your profile was not synchronised with the server" was a big problem, so I had a look into it.? This only happens on one computer, all non-admin users has this problem, the Samba admin account don't have this problem.? Looking into the windows error log, we get plenty of messages of the below:

I would be incredibly grateful to anyone who'll help me translate some SAS code into R code. Say for example that I have a dataset named "dat1" that includes five variables: wshed, site, species, bda, and sla. I can calculate with the following SAS code the mean, CV, se, and number of observations of "bda" and "sla" for each combination of

Hi all, So we have a single AD-DC master, and I'm trying to join a fresh new DC (DOMAIN-ad.DOMAIN.intranet, 192.168.0.11) to the master (ad.DOMAIN.intranet, 192.168.0.17), and I'm using the HOWTO here: https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Joining_a_Samba_DC_to_an_Existing_Active_Directory and I've hit a problem in the section "Built-in User & Group ID Mappings" - when

Hi When running a disk performance tool in multiple DomU simultaniously, then it seems that one DomU get done before the next DomU can start. It seems as if once disk I/O has started between a DomU and the Storage, then the hypervisor will continue servicing that DomU until the DomU has a pause in the data requests, before the hypervistor switches to the next DomU.
