Was wondering if someone could tell me if this is correct. I want to set up some DFS shares. I have 3 servers with SAMBA/LDAP on them. My first is basically my PDC and the other two are my BDCs. I assume that I will have to set all of this up on each server, so that no matter which server catches the logon, the logon script will get run. Also, if one of the servers was to go down for a

I did not get this finished last summer, so decided to just wait and do it this summer. I have setup my new samba server and was trying to get some things tweaked to the way that I want them. I thought that I had asked this before and that I could do it, but it seems that it does not work. My new server is running as a domain server just like the old. It has the same domain name and I change

I am working on my permissions and something does not quite make sense to me. Here is what I have set. /DIR (Unix permissions are 3777) Then in samba I have the following [dir] path = /DIR read only = no valid users @teach @student create mask 3660 directory mask 3770 Then from a windows workstation, I create a new directory inside 'dir', and call it 'teach'. The

I have a problem with some Samba permissions. Here is the share. [bhs] path = /school/bhs read only = no valid users = @teacher @admin @bhs create mask = 660 force create mode = 2660 directory mask = 770 force directory mode = 3770 T: is mapped to a DFS share with permissions 3777, then the 'bhs' share is a link in the DFS share. I get inconsistent

I had this problem some last year and never got it figured out. Now it is bugging me. It seems that sometimes when a student writes his/her file to a directory, it will not keep the correct group. It puts his/her main group as the group owner and that fouls things up. Here is what I have. Unix Permissions /school 3777 admin.teacher /school/bhs 3777 admin.teacher /school/bhs/reese

I was just setting a Windows Vista machine up on my network and have the following problems. If the user logs into the domain, then there are no network drives showing. It is as if the script is not executing. If I logon locally with an administrator and then run '\\server-name' to get a list of drives, I can see them but nothing shows up in any of them except for two of the shares

It seems my logins are taking a long time to get logged in. I am guessing that it is worse when classes start and a lot of the kids try to login at once. My old server did not seem to have this problem though and we have the same number of students. Where should I start looking at this? I am guessing that it is ldap, but want to make sure. If I log in at a computer and go to start->run and

I am not sure if this is where I need to ask this or not, but I am lost to where to start even. I had 7 computers in one lab that would not login. It gave the standard "computer account password bad or domain not found". I had another 9 computer in my other lab do the same thing. It seems that they have suddenly started losing the domain. I can add them to a workgroup and then

I am setting up a new samba server that is going to replace my old one. Here is the question that I have. Am I going to have to go around to each computer on campus and have it rejoin the domain when I put the new server in place? If that is the case, can I set the SID on the new samba server to be the same as the old samba server and will that do the trick so that I do have to go around to

My passwords have expired again in my LDAP/Samba setup. I have been reading in the Samba How-To and just want to make sure this is what I need to do before I try it. If I want to have my passwords expire in the year 2015, do I need to do the following to all of my users? pdbedit --pwd-must-change-time="2015-01-01" --time-format="%Y-%m-%d" username Using the ldap-usermod

I have a samba server setup with LDAP. Before I was using LDAP, I could get a list of users and groups with my perl script by using the getgrent and getpwent routines. I cannot use this anymore, because for some reason, these routines do not see all of my users. They only see up to a certain point. If I do a 'getent passwd' from the command line, it only shows up to certain number of

Windows 2012 R2 domain at highest level and one rhel6.5 samba server(3.6) Been throwing everything at this for the last few days. I can join to the domain and create ACL enabled shares but this one command I am struggling with. $ net rpc rights grant 'BES\Domain Admins' SeDiskOperatorPrivilege -Uadministrator Enter administrator's password: Could not connect to server 127.0.0.1

I have fought with these before. I finally got them down the way that I wanted them, but I was wanting to set this up a bit different. I want to make sure that there is no way to do this without actually having to assign a bunch of different drive letters to shares. I basically one one Drive letter assigned to the top of the directory. Underneath that directory there will be several others and

Ok, I have played with this some more. Here is my setup. I have a local network 10.0.x.x/255.255.0.0 I have an off site network 192.168.0.x/255.255.255.0 The samba server is also my wins server and has the ip 10.0.0.2 on my local network. This is the only NIC in the Samba server. My firewall/router server shows the following from netstat -r

Here is my problem. I installed the OpenLdap 2.4.10 server and SASL client. I then went to install the Samba 3.0.30 Port and it tells me that it needs to install OpenLDAP client 2.3.42, but the 2.4.10 is in the same place and I need to deinstall it. I deinstall 2.4.10 and samba will install, but now openldap will not run because it has missing files. I went to reinstall the 2.4.10 SASL client,

I have the following setup. I have a 10.0.x.x network that has my samba server on it. I have a filter/firewall that has a 10.0.x.x NIC and a 192.168.x.x NIC in it. The 192.168.x.x network is a wireless network for a building up town. Can I have the computers from the 192.168.x.x network logon to my samba domain? I was going to try and add a remote announce in for the 192.168.x.x network and see

Hi everyone: I need to count the number of banks of each firm in my data. The firm is identified by the fiscal number.

Have IdealX.org lost their domain? it seems to have been pinched by some company selling domains. Site is partially mirrored at Idealx.com but stil links to idealx.org. Replace idealx.org urls with idealx.com but the samba downloadable stuff isn't there at the moment. Duncan
