Hi Samba folks! I have a problem concerning RPC calls. In a domain environment running 3.0.3pre2 I have no problems shutting down remote computers. I now have a small environment with only 2 computers in a workgroup. My samba server is running on a FreeBSD 5.4 box and my client is a Win XP Pro SP2 box. When I try to use net rpc shutdown -I 192.168.1.50 -U Administrator i get the

All, I have been working on a component that is included with samba called SMBSH. The binary allows you to automount your NT shares by accessing your profile . I have been working on this for the last few days and have been unsuccesful at getting it work. Now I am not much of a programmer, but I did my best to try and troubleshoot this. However it just does not want to work in Linux. I

I am using Samba 3.0.2a as Domain member into ADS w2k3 domain. net ads join -U administrator work fine. This integration include support of kerberos ( krb5.conf) and winbind wbinfo -u and -g works fine. I am able to mapped Samba shares with IP address (\\192.168.0.x\share) but it does not works if I use netbios name ( \\redhat9\share) the system asks me for authentication but never I get into

We are trying to migrate to samba from NT4 data servers, We don't currently allow users the execute permission on data drives, so I have setup data drives with a creat mask of 0660 which seems ok. The problem I'm having it that both powerpoint and PDF files seem to need the 'x' bit set before users can edit or open the files. Has anybody else had this problem? and if so could you

I've got a Samba box (2.2.5a) as a member of a Samba domain. Both the PDC and client are running 2.4.18 with XFS and ACLs compiled in. Problem: on the client, I can -NOT- modify the ACLs for files from Windows. (Note that I can modify the stock Unix permissions, but not the extended users/permissions that ACL support offers.) If I try, they just vanish when I click "OK".

Hi, I can successfully run Samba (v2.2.10 or v 3.0.10) in the smbpasswd mode. However, I cannot get it to connect to the IBM LDAP server (IDS v5.2). Can someone point me to a doc or web site for this? Thanks, Andy

I have a Samba PDC running on RHEL3U4 with the following smb.conf: # Samba config file created using SWAT # from 127.0.0.1 (127.0.0.1) # Date: 2005/06/01 15:50:07 # Global parameters [global] workgroup = TESTDOMAIN server string = Samba Server passdb backend = ldapsam:ldap://localhost, smbpasswd log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log max log size = 50

Hi everyone, I run to some confusion here and hope someone give me a answer before I implement it. I am trying to install samba2.05 on my AIX 4.3.1, but the binary file in the web site is for AIX 4.3.2. Can I still use the binary file for my installation on AIX 4.3.1 ? Thanks !

I always smile to myself when reading the replies on the mailing list from Gerald (jerry) Carter. That cheers at the end of everything always makes it seem that he is such a nice person. Of course half the reason I smile to myself is the inanity of getting that impression from one word in an e-mail. For all I know he is a complete jerk. And even the huge power lifters at the gym'll

Hi; I have a client who wishes to implement SAMABA in a windows 2k AD environment. The client has not moved to wk2 as yet. Can Samba be use for w2k mixed mode authentication?

Hi, I was hoping some one may be able to help with a problem I have. If I try to modify/write to a share from a windows 2000 desktop (through windows explorer or through command prompt) then Linux crashes with the following error. kernel BUG at fcntl.c:417! illegal operation: 0001 CPU: 0 Process smbd (pid: 347,

I've had a problem since I had installed samba with ldap support. It's impossible deleting and managing [ex.: add user to a group] the user; only with smbldap-tools. When I try to manage new user with usermgr.exe, who's added the log tell me: ldapsam_update_sam_account: failed to modify user with uid = foo, error: sambaMungedDial: value #0 invalid per syntax (Success) Trying

Hi there, I tried to connect OS2 Warp 4 to Samba server. The network used to be NT 4.0 Domain, then migrated to Samba to become Domain Controller. I've followed below instruction, and still can't login to the domain. I can get an IP address and ping the Samba server, but can't login to domain and map any network share.

Hi Jim, I did what the doc says but the problem is the same. Does anybody saw this work ? I mean, is the Samba 3.0.2a+Kerberos MIT 1.3.3 able to be accessed by a WXP, W2K or W2K3 machine, using Kerberos tickets generated in a Windows 2003 KDC (W2K3 AD) ?

A colleague has seen a problem (with Samba 3.0), in using LDAP. A very simple version of the problem is as follows, where he tries to authenticate a user "grw" > > I am almost there...

Does anyone have any experience using PGina with Samba for a simple "single sign on" approach using Windows clients? If so, I would love to know how it is working for you. I tried posting here a bit ago for a way to do this ("single sign on") with samba only, but I didn't get any responses and therefore looked into other opportunities. Thanks. Paul

I've upgrade to Samba 3.0.4 a System wich it's running SLES 8. The System is working with LDAP and smbldap-tools 0.8.4 for managing users and groups. I'd like to manage the user and group with usrmgr.exe running into a Windows 2000. When I tried adding new user the programs didn't work and it's reported an error. The log system running in the PDC [SLES 8], reporting:

Hi all, I've been spending some time with customers lately and I've discovered an interesting thing. Many IT departments completely delegate the settings on directory and file ACLs to the users who are interested in the data. For example, on a given share for "Finance", the finance group is given full control on the containing directory (ie. they're allowed to set ACLs on

I have a customer that is using 250 gig drives for his business data. I have been using rsync to keep mirror copies of his data on a second machine. In the last 3 months I have lost 2 of four drives, the last one being the system drive. I have been doing a manual switchover. Each time rsync runs, I copy my samba conf files, passwd, shadow and group files from etc. Has anyone setup a HA

I have a server running Centos 4.2 with samba 3.0.14a running and using roaming profiles in a domain setup. There is a user with 125 tmp files in his Outlook Express Folder. They date back to June of this year with different sizes from 300K to 65 meg. Is this a sign of a problem with syncing? This same user has another problem. Let's call the user jdoe.
