similar to: Codepage conversion between 2.2.8 and 3.0.14 - what's 2.2.8 default charset on disk?

Hi all! I'm REALLY depressed! After moving from samba 2.2.8 to 3.0.4 I can not read my files. All names are corrupted. I used NO charset options in the original (2.2.8) smb.conf (which means that all names are in cp850, doesn't it ?) No I have installed 3.0.4, libiconv also. But can not figure out what to set in smb.conf. I use Solaris 8, LC_CTYPE=ru_RU.KOI8-R. And windows XP/2000

Hello samba, I have an issue with OpenVPN 2.0 and Samba 3.0.14a. My setup consists in a routed VPN (thus server and clients are on different subnets) between a linux OpenVPN 2.0 server and some Windows 2000 VPN clients. Samba is the PDC and is a WINS server. The VPN clients work, broswing works, and I see the clients registering on the server's WINS in

I am looking for some way to grant or deny internet access (that is, changing iptables rules) based on Samba domain logon. When a user logs on, I would like to run a script that modifies firewall rules based on the group that the user belongs to (this determines if he has internet access or not) and based on the workstation's IP address (so I know which IP address to grant internet access

I have tried to read the documentation, but I was not able to find a clear solution to my problem. I run Samba 3.0.14a on a Debian system with Posix ACLs. I have a share on a file system that uses Posix ACLs, and I have two directories in that share. Both directories have default ACLs set, so that every new file (or directory) created under each directory (by Windows XP/2000 clients)

Hi, this is my first post to the list. I have googled a lot, and still cannot find a proper solution. I hope someone here will be able to shed some light on my doubts. I have set up a firewall using kernel 2.6.15 (Debian) that does NAT for 100 clients, and uses two different ISPs, using the howto found at http://lartc.org/howto/lartc.rpdb.multiple-links.html. I have *not*

I am currently planning "half a migration" (and half a new configuration) from NT to Samba PDC, and I would like to have some help. I have read the howto and I have understood something useful, but I also understood that I don't know enough of Samba domain internals to be sure not to make terrible mistakes. I currently have a NT4 PDC that also shares files and

Hi there, I am running rsync in server mode on linux (redhat 8) and I am running cygwin (latest version) on a mixture of win2k and winxp machines for Japanese users. When I Rsync from windows rsync complains about a no. of Japanese filenames (not all of them) and this is due, as far as I can work out, to incompatibilities/clashes between SJIS filename encoding (which Windows uses) and certain

I have installed lots of samba 3 servers as PDCs for little networks serving 10 users or so. I have always set up the user "root" as the domain administrator, by setting its group SID to <domainSID>-512 with pdbedit. My "root" user has usually a user SID of <domainSID>-1000 since it is the first user I add to Samba. I have never set up a username map

I am quite desperate. I have been trying to migrate a NT4 PDC to Samba. At the first try, I have used samba 3.2.5, which seemed to complete the vampire process but then I have found that there is a bug that prevents password from being migrated properly (and in fact passwords were not migrated properly). Then, I have removed the Linux server from the NT domain, deleted all TDB files, installed

I have just run into two printer drivers (Brother 1870N and HP Deskjet 890cxi) that seem to crash windows explorer as soon as they are uploaded to the samba server. I have tried using "default devmode=yes" with no success for both drivers. I have found an horrible workaround that maybe should be useful to others, so I'll describe it here. First, uninstall the offending

I'd like to set up my samba 2.2.8a server to serve printer drivers to clients when needed. I have set up the print$ share, in which I still have no drivers. Tried adding drivers from a win2000 workstation by using "server properties" command, I can't add anything since all buttons are greyed out. The user I am using is in the printer admin group in smb.conf. I

When I use the smbpasswd utility that came with samba-1.9.18p5-1, I get the following error: load_client_codepage: filename /etc/codepages/codepage.850 does not exist. It's true. There is no /etc/codepages directory. If you have one, maybe it belongs to an rpm package, and you can tell me which one (rpm -qvf /etc/codepages/codepage.850 to see)? Or is this a direct product of samba, and I
