Hi there ! This is my first post and I really would like to have this stuff working ... if not, I should go to Win2k3 server .... please help me to avoid it !!!! I've been trying to integrate Mac OS X (10.3) clients to my Samba server through the Active Directory Plugin with no success. This PDC is currently working for 90 PC's with XP SP2. My server is well configured from the DNS (or

I think I found some of my cutover problems. I found a couple Win98 machines which had the same name for user and machine names. While it never seemed to be an issue in the Netware realm, under Samba, it appears to have undesirable results. Although the machines have been renamed, there still seem to be strange problems. Any ideas on where to fix/change/clean whatever to remove the machine

Hi, i have the Samba Server 3.0.20b running Debian 3.1 Sarge and clients with Mac Os X 10.4.3, after update to 10.4.3 version while the clients copy via Finder to Samba volume, after copy the files hide in directory. The others clients running Mac Os X 10.4.3, dont see the files but the Linux Workstations and Windows Workstaions dont present problems. Please some idea for the problem. Thanks.

using samba v3 windows xp sp2 clients. i have profiles working to some extent, that is when i create a new user on the server, when that user logs in, the profile gets downloaded from the server from the /etc/netlogon/default user directory. any customizations that the user makes work just fine and get saved to the profiles share under profiles/username when the user tries to go to a different

Hi, I got samba 2.0.30b running on a Sparc machine with Solaris 10. I installed Kerberos 1.4.2 Openldap stable version 20051018 To compile Samba 2.0.30b with ADS Looks like Kerberos works kinit Administrator@MYDOMAIN.COM <mailto:Administrator@MYDOMAIN.COM> ==> works klist ==> shows ticket I added the server to the domain net join -U Administrator Joined

In reading the documentation I havn't found anything that covers the use of winbindd when authenticating against one domain (lets call it 'A') while also allowing users from a domain trusted by A (lets call it 'B'). My linux box is a member server in domain A which is a new domain we are working on transitioning to. We are not renaming because 2k server doesn't have that

Hi, I have been trying to join a Samba Domain member server to the AD and use LDAP for IDMAP storage. I have run into many strange issues and I was hoping someone can please take time to clarify things for me. I have read quite a bit (I own both the Samba books by Terpstra) and done a lot of Google searching. I think part of my problem is the unusual setup I have, as all the examples in the

I will shortly be replacing a couple of proprietary VPN boxes with a FreeBSD solution. Section 10.10 of the Handbook has a detailed description of how to do this. However I remember a lot of discussion about a year ago about whether the gif interface was necessary to set up VPNs like this or whether it was just a convenience, for "getting the routing right". A number of people said

I would like to control the inner margins of a lattice graph. The graph is a single superposed panel, but there is too much white space around the data for my liking. I've played around with some of the layout options, but so far have found only how to control outer margins. R version 2.7.1 (2008-06-23) MS Vista OS Thanks for any help. Todd Hatfield

I've been using ipfw for a while to create a router with NAT and packet filtering, but have never combined it with stateful filtering, instead using things like "established" to accept incoming TCP packets which are part of a conversation initiated from the "inside". I'd like to move to using keep-state/check-state to get tighter filtering and also to allow outgoing

The nss_ldap has some performance problems and doesn't have any caching features that windbind does. What I was aways wondering is does IDMAP write UID/GID derived from SID to the extended schema in AD? Can winbindd use this extended schema, instead of using nss_ldap? -----Original Message----- From: samba-bounces+letz_samba=realmspace.com@lists.samba.org

Hi, I have some strange output in my log file, where I am sending information via a form to the database, eg: <-- snip --> Processing StoreController#add_var_product (for 127.0.0.1 at 2006-01-30 12:30:19) [POST] Parameters: {"size"=>{"id"=>""}, "x"=>"44", "y"=>"11",

I'm running Pegasus 4.31 via the latest version of Wine on Ubuntu's Breezy Badger version. I've looked at the Wine applications page for bugs etc and Pegasus crashing on sending mail is documented. It shows as bug 1611 and shows as resolved but I cannot fathom out what the resolution is. My Pegasus appears to run fine except when I press the send button whereupon pegasus

Dear R-help, First of all, thank you VERY much for any help you have time to offer. I greatly appreciate it. I would like to write a function that, given an arbitrary number of factors from a data frame, tabulates the number of occurrences of each unique combination of the factors. Cleary, this works: > table(horse,date,surface) <SNIP> , , surface = TURF

I recently downloaded R for Windows, running on Win XP. I'm trying to create a perspective plot but not having any luck after reading the R manual and several examples found on the Internet. I have a 100 x 100 matrix of Z data as a tab-delimited text file exported from Minitab. I read this in to R using read.delim; this seemed to go ok. I created X and Y using seq() to get 100 divisions

I have been updating my FreeBSD systems for many years by updating and building from source. For the FreeBSD 9.2 cycle, I decided to use freebsd-update for binary update instead. I use Sendmail + Cyrus-SASL and the freebsd-update process only installed a 'bare bones' binary. How do I compile just Sendmail from source so that it uses my /etc/make.conf for the smtp_auth components?

Hey folks, I like what I''m reading about improved performance via Service Oriented Architecture for my Rails app. Stepping in that direction will require some code reorganization, though. Has anyone regretted the time invested in Rails SOA or suffered any other drawbacks that might -- from a business perspective -- have disinclined them from going SOA? Lille -- You received this
