Hi People: In the how to posted on .. http://us3.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/winbind.html The docs says several times to the option -B in the winbindd , but I can't find anything on the manpage about that switch and I can't notice any difference by using it. The docs are outdated? or my 3.0.24 dosen't have this feature? Tnxs in advance.

Hi, I am testing share parameters, and have the following share definition: ## Section - [shareA] [shareA] path = /tmp/shareA writelist = user1 and do not understand why user1 cannot write files in the share when connected as user1. Unix permissions for the share files are rw for everyone, and the share directory has wide-open permissions. Samba version is 3.0.20b-3.4-SUSE.

Hi, I discovered that SGI XFS for Linux har a utility called xfs_freeze, which freezes the filsystem and makes sure that the filesystem is consistant. It is a bit like a mount -o remount,ro but it does not fail when applications have open files. When we take snapshots of our XFS volume, we do "xfs_freeze -f /mnt/foo; lvcreate -s /dev/vg_foo/bar /dev/vg_foo/bar-snapshot;xfs_freeze -u

Im having some problems with the samba 3.0.24 in Debian Etch when I try to list the groups, like this: wbinfo -g or net rpc group -U username All the times the output of the command is... "NOTHING".

Hi there! I been using samba3 with ldap for years, and now im about to move to samba4 to leave the slapd. I didnt try yet to migrate the directory from samba3 to samba4.

But also, groups that are unix

Hi All, I have setup my samba as a PDC and testparm gives me the right result, but when I am trying to add my XP client to SAMBA I receive an error as "Logon failure: bad username or password" or "Username could not be found".

Hello, I'm new in Samba Ldap. I use samba-2.2.3a and openldap2-2.1.4-46. I am going to load in Ldap a lot of users in a ldif file as it is shown below. But I don't know how to put samba password. I can use: smbpasswd juan1 and then the fields lmPassword and ntPassword are changed. In this way, after load all users in Ldap I would need a script to do a smbpasswd for each user
