Hello All, I hope that you are all doing well. I have been trying to get Samba setup and running on my Redhat 7.2 box so that users on Windows machines can login and be connected to their directory. The problem is that no matter what I try, I can see the Samba server from the Windows machine, but it keeps telling me that the password was not recognized and is the same linux password for each

Hello All, Could someone please tell me if there is a was to use smbadduser in a non-interactive mode and just allow you to enter all of the particular user information on the command line? I need to set up a small script that will automate adding users to the smbpasswd file so that they can login. Cheers, Lonnie -- Lonnie Cumberland OutStep Technologies Incorporated EMAIL:

Hello All, Well my Samba server is up and running good, but I am now needing to be able to let some of my users connect to our server who is not located on our local network. Actually they are located some distance away and I would like to be able to allow then to connect. Has anyone had any success with this and how it might be done? Best Regards, Lonnie -- Lonnie Cumberland OutStep

Hello All, I am new to using wine on my Linux redhat 7.2 so please forgive the dumb questions, ok. I have been able to run a few of my Windows Applications from wine as a test, but ran into problems when I wanted to try a test and install OpenOffice 641c. I am getting messages like: ---------------------------------------------------------------- bash-2.05$ wine c:\\install\\setup Warning:

Hello all, We have a few aliased Ethernet addresses on our server and if I do not use the Bind statement in the "Global" section then the NMBD seems to try to bind to all of the addresses. We are actually using OpenVPN which make the connections just fine on a 172.16.x.x subnet to "tun0" device. The problem is that Samba does not seem to find the tun0 device and reports

Hello All, I have just been reading the docs on Wine and came across the --managed Allow the window manager to manage created windows --winver Version to imitate (win95,nt40,win31,nt2k,win98,nt351,win30,win20) Does the "--managed" allow my xserver to take care of the windows? Also, if I set "--winver nt2k" then does this mean that Wine will look for the

Hello All, I have installed the latest Wine onto my Linux Redhat 7.2 and it seems to run very well for the most part. I can easily map a Linux directory to a Windows drive, but I actually have a need to be able to map a linux directory to windows subdirectory. About the only way that I can currently think of that might work would be to use a symbolic link on the Linux subsystem. cheers, Lonnie

greetings All, I have been reading over the Tinc manual and have become very interested in the "4.2 Multiple Networks" section of the manual. In particular, I am wondering if I read this correctly in that by using: `-n, --net=netname' Use configuration for net netname. then I can have multiple daemons running on the same machine. If I have 3 machines A, B, and C with A being

Hello All, I am sure that this has been asked probably a million times on this list, but for our particular setup, I need to see if there is a way to have Samba authenticate its users based upon the Linux accounts password file? The reason is that we have other applications all working together and most of them are also using the Linux password file which make the process of maintaining

Hello all, I think that this is probably an easy question so I hope that I will be able to get a quick response. In our users directories, there are a number of "dot" files and folders and I was wondering if there was a way to tell Samba not to show them when a user is in their directory? Maybe some sort of file filter perhaps. thanks Lonnie

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly on this. In thinking about the topology that I am trying to set up, I will probably only set up a "private" DNS on the VPN for the 10.x.x.x users. With this in mind, I have now come up with a new question relating to this. What I will like to do is to give all of the uses, including roadwarriors, a static IP address on the 10.x.x.x address

Hello All, I have been trying all afternoon to rebuild the Samba RPM for my Fedora 3 with the MySQL passdb support and from what I can see it only needs the inclusion of "--with-expsam=mysql" in the SPEC file in addition to the regular ones. The problem is that no matter what version of Samba I try to rebuild, it always gice an error at the same place:

Thanks Guus for answering all of these many emails. I now had a question as to if it is possible for something like this. Suppose that you have a Tinc VPN network made up of 4 nodes (A, B, C, D) and you want to dynamically add new nodes (E, F). How can this be done without having to re-start all of the nodes A-D? Based upon what I can see, each node condifuration files need to be modified

Hello All, I have been working with the latest release of Wine after finding out that the recent CVS version would not run because of some error in loading the user32.dll. Currently I have implemented the bitblt Maskblt routine and is working, but still experiencine some little problems with the masking of the icon images. While testing an application that I have been working with, I have found

Greetings All, Can someone please try to answer a few questions for me regarding TINC so that it might clear up some things that I can trying to get a better picture on. 1.

How is that authorization

Hello all, I have compiled into RPM's on my Fedora 3 now 3 different versions of Samba (3.0.10, 3.0.14, and 3.0.20) which installs just fine but I am getting errors when trying to start the service. --------------------------- [2005/08/17 12:43:32, 0] smbd/server.c:main(802) smbd version 3.0.20rc2 started.
