similar to: FW: POLEDIT replacement?

I've been reading about policies and the documentation says to grab poledit.exe from the NT SP6a file. There are many policy settings that are not available via this tool. Isn't there something newer that could be used to create the .pol file needed by samba to implement policies? Or will this only be available with samba4?

You can set the type of Profile by using the control Panal system application to set the type to local. Anyway this is probably not the main intention in handling profiles: Aim: 1. Exclude some files like tmp or temporary internet file 2. Include desktop or personal Therefore you can use (to exclude) the poledit: double click on the user in poledit and as far as I remember under

Hi samba gurus, I have a successful install of samba/LDAP (on FC5) and am looking at applying security templates for different groups. I had this successfully working on my old RH9 box running samba (but not using LDAP). Using poledit, I created groups (sales, it, etc) that were the same as my linux groups, and created a Ntconfig.POL file. Referring to this article for use on poledit.exe and

I've googled my brains out trying to find the "latest" NT 4.0 System Policy Editor files: POLEDIT.CNT POLEDIT.EXE POLEDIT.HLP COMMON.ADM (NT & W9x) WINNT.ADM (NT) WINDOWS.ADM (W9x) I only have dialup access, and it will take me a zillion days to download SP6 for NT so I can extract the above files. Can any one point me to where I can D/L those six (or 0110) files? Thanks

Hi, I am using poledit.exe in my samba domain. Unfortunately I am a little confused about if and when different settings will take affect. In my case I configured Domain Users with certain restrictions. I do not want the Domain Admins to inherit the same restrictions , so I added the group of the Domain Admins in poledit and in the list of priorities they ar at the top. Does this

i am using samba 3.0.14a as recommended but it seems that for some reason that i can't understand, no domain groups show up on any administration tool like poledit and nitrobit policy editor groups like users (domain not local) and ntadmins where are they Thanks Nikos Sarantopoulos --------------------------------- ??????????????

So only for old NT4 style PDC - BDC environment one needs poledit. While AD's (with virtual pdc role servers) can use the MMC.? We got a pure Samba AD environment and thus it should work. Be it that we might not have all mmc templates (not yet checked that). Thanks Viktor. -----Original message----- From: Viktor Trojanovic?<viktor at troja.ch> Sent: Wednesday 21st October 2020

I'm creating a deploy plan, for strict client policies (to comply to ISO standards and security) For mixed win 7 enterprise and win 10 enterprise on a Samba Active Directory. On the lookout if Samba would be any different towards client policies. I did some googling, and got pointed to old samba articles of 2007: https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Implementing_System_Policies_with_Samba

I have an NTConfig.POL I created from poledit with the Windows 2000 Administrator toolkit. It contains my WSUS configuration, and NTConfig.POL is placed in my [netlogon] share and is being loaded fine by the clients. Is this still the propery way to create NTConfig.POL files, or is there a newer utility I should be using? I'm looking at Vista and it uses .admx templates, which I guess

Hi, I think I have two questions - one which is samba and one which is windows policy files. I'll try to limit this question to the samba side but will give the full picture for completeness. I'm trying to implement a simple policy to redirect a few simple folders (for starters). I have a policy file called NTConfig.POL that is available on my share \\wilson\netlogon (wilson is the

Well, I put it here. All the experience gained in about-half-an-year-management of Samba-PDC + numerous NT4 workstations is included. Also, I'd be glad to hear from you what did I miss! 1) when NT4-workstations are organised into "domain", there's some action assosiated to this: "to log into domain". samba ain such case acts as PDC (primary domain controller),

Hello, We recently install a Samba PDC for linux and W2k clients. I don't find how to apply security policies editing with Poledit to users-groups defined by ldap organisation units. Policies are only working with default user and individual user. I see with poledit on the domain two groups named "domain users" or "admin users" but I don't understand what they are. I

Hi Jerry ,hi Sambatsitas, yesterday i installed a brand new ldap smb pdc with latest smb sources ( all suse 9.2 ), and latest ldap scripts from idealx.( orginal source rpm ) All work fine ( as far i testet it ). (Usrmgr was just wow..!) So at last i did a NTConfig.POL with poledit.exe for win xp serv Pack2 on the netlogon share. I used adm modified adm files and a other poledit cause system.adm

I'm just exploring the Profile Editor, described on http://www.pcc-services.com/custom_poledit.html - and policies saved to NTConfig.pol file and copied to the netlogon share work great for Windows XP machines. However, with Windows 2000, they don't work at all. Winh XP machines - policies are applied. I see in Samba logs that the NTConfig.pol is copied from the server to the w2k

Hi list. I've just configured a PDC server using RedHat Enterprise Linux 4 (update 5) and Samba 3.0.25a. Everithing is working fine. I'm not using LDAP and all my client machines are installed with Windows XP Professional. I used the Mike Petersen website ( http://www.pcc-services.com/custom_poledit.html) to help me creating the NTConfig.pol file and created custom profiles

Hi! I have a problem using ntconfig.pol-policies for domain groups other than "Domain Users" and "Domain Admins". I am using Samba 2.2.7 with LDAP support as a PDC. Policies work as expected for "Domain Users" and "Domain Admins" but setting policies for any other group doesn't work. The "Browse"-list for AddGroups in poledit only shows

Hello all, I am a new user of samba, that's look pretty cool. I use samba 3.x. There are only windows 2000 client(and 1 XP) in french language. I don't have any license of some server version like windows NT4 server, 2000 or 2003 server. One think i would like to do is setting the time of the windows 2000 client. I write in the "logon script" : net time /domain:mydomain
