Hello, I've searched the Howtos, but I did not find anything, so I'm asking this question onlist. When are connections between Samba and the client encrypted? I run Samba 3.0.20a on a network with Windows XP SP2 and some Windows 98 machines. - Are connections always encrypted? Are there any smb.conf settings I have to make in order to get encryption working (server signing?)? - Are

Hello there, I am playing around with Asterisk the first time and it really looks great. ;-) However, I have one problem: Any SIP device can connect to my PBX. How can I requre logon for SIP users and deny access in the case of wrong or missing credentials? Thanks Florian

Hello everyone, Hello Jelmer, in 3.0.20, it still is not possible to add new users using pdbedit. See bug report at https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2531 In 3.0.14a it was possible to copy pdb_sql.c and pdb_mysql.c from 3.0.11 and it worked, but this workaround does not help anymore, as the files seem to be incompatible. Jelmer, could you please have a look at this one? I consider

Hello there, I'm trying to set up Samba as a PDC for Windows XP Professional (SP2). It seems to work fine. Machine accounts are created automatically, passwords between Unix and Samba users get synced, I can logon, profile directories are created - but there's a problem. I know that this is well-known, but it drives me crazy and I don't know any solution. First of all, the

Hello there, where are the Windows file permissions (i.e. ACL) stored when using Samba? How can I change them from within Linux? Or is it only possible with the Windows file permissions dialogue? Thanks Florian

Hi all I have a samba 3.0.4 pdc compiled with acl support built in, and the following options configured at compile time: ./configure --with-acl-support --with-smbclient --with-sm bmount --with-quota --with-ads --with-tdbsam I am just trying to provide acl support to my users, and I know that acls are working properly on the linux machine (setfacl and getfacl work superbly!). Samba acl

Hello, I run a Windows domain based on Samba 3 and I am searching for a way to distribute/deploy software to clients. I.e., a user logging on to a client, software should be automatically installed or upgraded. Is there any common solution? I heard of MSI packages, but I don't know if it is necessary to create MSI packages of all installations... Thanks Florian

Hiya... Trying to auth users against a mysql database using pdb_mysql. Using samba3.0 from CVS, running as a PDC. Few questions as well: In the "username column:", I'm assuming I need a real unix user here? Can I have a whole bunch of "nt username" users (i.e. non-unix users) in the mysql db to be auth'ed with samba, but they're all using the same unix user?

Hi, for those who are using ldap for managing Samba, here's a quick script I wrote to make it simple to list users or machines on the commandline. I use it to delete old machine entries that are not in use anymore. For usage, read the perldoc in the script. Place the script in the same directory as you have your other smbldap-tools scripts. The script is based on smbldap-usershow. Kind

Hello List, I have successfuly brought samba 3.0 on SuSE (8.1,8.2,9.0) to work together with an Active Directory Server. I have (also successfully) enabled squid to use winbind for authentication for internet access. (I need winbind, because only members of a certain AD Group are allowed to access the internet.) Kerberos is running fine. My Problem is: After I add a new user to the AD: With

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Dear List, Few days ago I've posted, that my Win9x boxes are unable to get the list of domain users and groups from samba-3.0.0 server (for details see bug 596). Unfortunately the same is true for samba-3.0.1pre1. Please people also having win9x boxes and Samba3 PDC confirm that it is a bug, or a configuration error. Thanks for any suggestion.

Hello, I am looking for a command-line utility to automatically purge one Maildir folder. I want to periodically run sa-learn from cron, and after the spam learning folder has been added to the Bayes database, its contents should be deleted. I've searched a bit, but only found a few old utilities or some telnet+expect scripts, which both didn't look too reliable. Is there any

Hello everybody, First of all, congratulations on samba 3.0 :o) Iam trying to install samba 3.0 with pdb_mysql support though im getting some trouble i cant understand.

I was following docs from http://ftp.easynet.be/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/passdb.html#mysq lsam But I?m stumped I?m running FreeBSD 4.8, and need to create a mapped relationship between SOME windows users and SOME freebsd users I got Samba 3.0.8 running based on : ./configure --with-krb5=/usr/heimdal And everything works if I manually add matching Windows usernames to my etc/passwd,

Dear All, wasn't sure my last question got posted, i decided to re-post with more concise explanation of the problem i'm facing. I have samba PDC (version 3.0.14a) working fine before with smbpasswd backend. a few weeks ago, we decide to move to mysql backend since we have email server with mysql backend as well. I'm trying to use one username and password for both email and samba

When windows is set to USER mode, samba stops working, even when defined in DOMAIN SERVER mode. Anyone know why and how to fix it? If I am sharing is SHARE mode, then I can acces fine. Also, when in Share mode, I cann't get Windows to read a user list for shares from the Samba server. Anyone got any ideas? smb.conf: # This is the main Samba configuration file. You should read the #
