I have a client who has a bunch of macs accessing some samba shares, and they write these ._filename and .DS_STORE files all over the place, he would perfer it to not write these files at all.

Ok I narrowed down the problem I am having here... I have a master ldap server and a replica ldap server. If I point the DC at the master logins don't work, I get a "domain cannot be found" type message. If however I point it at the replica it works just fine.

I have two samba dc's, same subnet, the goal is to have them both be able to answer domain login requests and therefore if one goes down we still have the ability to login to the domain. Can this be done with samba? if so could you just tell me generally the procedure for this? heres what I have right now. server1, openldap master, samba points to loopback for ldap server2, openldap replica,

In the smbldap.conf file it reads... # Notes: to use to dual ldap servers backend for Samba, you must patch # Samba with the dual-head patch from IDEALX. If not using this patch # just use the same server for slaveLDAP and masterLDAP. # Those two servers

Is it possible (and correct) to have two DC's on the same subnet? Both have write access to an ldap backend. -- Matt Pruett <entelin@logicaldreams.net>

Hello all, I am new to this list and to samba. I used samba in a previous life, but someone else installed and maintained it. I am have a small issue that I do not know if it is resolvable.

Hi everyone, There's been a few people lately asking about this problem. I've already offered the solution twice, and I believe Andrew has mentioned it too, but we obviously keep getting new people on the list ;) So here's how to fix it, once again: Add the following line to the [global] section of your smb.conf: ssl CA certDir = /usr/share/ssl/certs That's it!
