Hi all Im pretty new to Samba. I would like to use Samba as a PDC, for some funny reason I cant browse the network. I cant find other machines on the network. The server says its a PDC, but my win clients (win2000) says its not.

Hi, I cant find any wins options in your smb.conf. I think you?ll need Wins for proper Network browsing.

All, I currently have a problem where the default user profile is not being picked up - Windows simply ingores it and creates one based on local settings. I understand samba supports default user profiles, and one can be put into the profiles share like this: /export/profiles/Default User/ This directory contains a copy of a working profile from a proper user. The relevant smb.conf sections

Hi all, Runing Samba 3.0.14a-3sarge1 PDC, using an LDAP backend Problem is I cant seem to load Roaming Profiles, as it gives the following error "Windows did not load your roaming profile and is attempting to log you on with your local profile.

Hi, I am trying to plan a migration of approximately 160 PC's from a workgroup environment to using Samba (3.0.14a) as a PDC (on AIX 4.3, to be 5.3 in near future). They will NOT be using roaming profiles, as this is not appropriate for the client. Joining the machine to the domain, logging in works, everything's cool. These computers were all in a workgroup previously and had a

Hello, I have Samba 3.0.4, OpenLDAP 2.0.27 (whatever comes with RH 9.0) configured as a PDC with LDAP as the password database. I can log on to the PDC box, ldap seems to be working fine with PAM. Password changes take affect etc. I can get passthru security working fine. I log into windows xp machine, browse home/profile shares, no problem. But I can't log on from the client xp machine

Help please I am running Samba 2.2.3a on Mandrake 8.2. My configuration file is below. I am trying to use XP as a client. It seems to find the domain, but it keeps giving me the dreaded "Multiple connections ... " message. I have tried running the "c:\net use * /d" command without success.

[i'm not subscribe to this list, please put me on CC...] I've asked this on samba-it (italian) mailing list, but with no clue. In my installation (debian sarge, samba 3.0.14a, kernel 2.6 and xfs filesystem) i've put roaming profile on quotas, and something i think strange happens. The client say to the user that cannot update the profile, also if it was under the soft (and hard)

Hi, I've a samba server set up with a ldap backend an I'v configured it to use roaming profiles (ie: logon path = \\%L\%U\profile), the users homes are exported by nfs to the server. My problem is that the profile of the user always end up in C:/Documents and Settings/$user . I've already erased the local profile and the profile directory in the users home dir, but every time that

Hello, I have just had a client of ours encounter an extremely weird problem with roaming profiles. Wheather or not it's samba related I do not know, but I believe it could be. The problem is that the person in question is MOVING files from one location to another inside "My Documents" while logged in using a domain account WHILE DISCONNECTED from the network. He also changes a few

running debian 3.1 "sarge" ppc and samba 3.08 I want to have my win98se computer users to have their shares automatically mapped. 1. I have read that I would use a netlogin directory and put scripts in there? 2. Does anyone know if samba has to be set up a special way ADS, wins, etc... to use the netlogin directory and it's scripts? "this server is the only smb server

I have had the following problems both with the stock samba 2.2 server that comes with RedHat 9 and several releases of samba 3.0, currently it's at 3.0.14a. When logging on to Windows 2000 computers using the samba server as an NT domain controller, certain profiles seem to get permission errors and windows just sticks you with a temporary profile that changes everytime you log on. It seems

Randy, I believe that it is a simple matter of calling out the local path that you wish to have profiles placed on each machine, in the smb.conf. Example: logon path = C:\Documents and Settings\%u The above should work, for you. I haven't done so myself, since each user on my network has their own unique mailbox, which is saved onto the server when they log off. Which is very

Folks, I am stumped! I have followed every tech tip I could find and I am still unable to complete my SMB installation. Specifically, I fail Test 4 and Tests 9 and 10. I believe the problem has something to do with the NMBD configuration. Below are the parameters of our system. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi there everyone, I recently upgraded to 2.0.6 from 2.0.5a in a hope to improve data integrity (I was having oplock_break problems that would affect the integrity of a lot of Excel files). So far so good with the oplock_breaks (even with oplocks reenabled). :-) However, I've started having problems with the clients' Windows profiles not being placed in my defined logon path.

Hi Federico, many thanks to you. This patch helped me too. Do you know the intention of the original changes by the samba team in ipc.c. I don't think, it is a good idea to store all profiles in an separate directory and the user registry in the home path. Thanks again Rudolf Rudolf Kollien email: Rudolf.Kollien@medas.de Rudolf.Kollien@kollien.de

Thanks to the enthuiastic help of Mr. Dan Shearer and the excellent writings of John H. Terpstra (Samba-3 by Example) I have migrated an NT4 PDC to Samba 3.0.14a-2 on Fedora Core 4 (Cries of amazement) The clients (XP, NT4WS, Win2K, 98 and 95) didn't notice the switch (once I had made all the correct folders!) My questions now are fine tuning and filling in gaps in my Windows knowledge.
