similar to: transfer domain information from windows to linux

We have a bunch of dual-boot boxes (linux/winxp). I'd like to be able to use winbind (against ads) for user authentication on the linux side, but it appears samba has to join the AD too. Upon joining the AD under linux/samba, it makes the windows side of things stop working (machine account has been modified). In the past, when using an NT4 domain, I was able to tell samba to use a

Hi, this may sound stupid, but; - I'd like to install unsupported x86/i386 smp kernel because I need some support (for eg. dual booting for r/w files for winXP) etc. I'm now using 4.3 latest smp kernel. (I've tested that x86 still runs better than x86_64 like I was told in January. Thanks for the advice.) Questions: Is there any documentation for how to install unsupported smp

Greetings, all! Samba has served me well these past 4 years. Now I have encountered problems. I hope somebody can give me some insight: Server: custom-compiled Linux 2.2.19 Dual P-III 1000 512 Meg ECC RAM (never touch the swap partitions!)

Hi List - I have a friend that runs a Windows domain with Active Directory and is setting up some new laptops with Redhat. He wants to automate installs, etc. on these laptops as he would on a Windows machine. Just wondering if anyone has any experience with this - and also if anyone knows of a good tutorial for joining a Linux machine to a Windows domain. I've heard that it is possible.

I've been at this for days, and making no headway. It's very discouraging. I have a Win2003 domain, that has the Services for Unix extensions installed. I am trying to have multiple Samba servers as domain members. (in my case, one desktop sharing files, and one laptop, accessing the shares). And at the moment, it doesn't (fully) work. Each Samba server can see shares from the other.

I have a suse 10.2 system, that runs the latest samba version, Suse provides for 10.2: 3.0.23d-6 After a long time I had to join that system to an AD domain. Unfortunately that did not work as expected. net ads join -U DE7B07K0@WW901.MYDOM.NET -d4 asks for a password, but then it fails with: ...

Have you disconnected all your usb hardware before trying the repair? I've repaired my box more times than I can count and the only time I've seen lots of hdd activity is when I had some weird hardware attached.

Some thoughts, for anyone faced with this type of problem on a dual boot box in the future: My first thought was to try to Rescue the WinXP Spanish language installation that came on the Dell Dimension 2400, out of the Dell factory. Later, I decided to wipe the entire drive, since I now have a WinXP English language Restore CD and I wanted to redo CentOS5, so I would have room to experiment with

Hi I am currently using Samba 3.0.11 and Cups 1.1.23 with Windows PostScript drivers and manufacturer PPDs on WinXP clients. When I print multiples copies of a document from a Windows XP box, the number of copies appearing in the Cups "page_log" file always takes the "1" value but the printer prints the correct number of copies. When I do the same on Linux (with the lpr

I dual boot WinXP and Fedora Linux and would like to run Agent 3.3 when I boot to Fedora. Has anyone successfully installed WINE (codeweavers?) on Linux and gotten the current Agent to function? What has your experience been? What problems have you encountered? I've seen very little discussion in the newsgroup. The web page that Mark Prince pointed to a few years ago is no longer active:

googling around I found some interesting information about samba4. It is said, samba4 shall have an ldap server of its own, not openldap. Is this correct? If so, could this server fully participate in AD replication? Does a timeframe exist, within which samba4 shall arrive? Thanks Norbert Wegener

Hi David Go to the samba wiki on https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Main_Page, search for "2016", klick on FAQ, scroll down a bit. There it says: I Am Running Samba as an AD DC.

The following Windows server versions are supported as a DC together with a Samba DC: Windows Server Version     Comments Windows Server 2016

Hi folks, I've been asked advice in an area that I'm not well versed and am hoping for some help. Having read a recent thread where booting to anaconda's kickstart wiped a partition table unexpectedly (to the user...it did what it was configured to do), I'm following the 'measure twice, cut once' rule and asking if this is possible and if so, what is best practice: I

I wouldn't necessarily wipe the whole HD, just the windows partition. You could also use Xen in CentOS 5 for your Windows virtualization. I'd wait for 5.1 though which will be more refined then version 5. I've been thinking of setting up a Xen machine of my own with a Windows HVM and a couple of Linux PVMs with their GUIs/consoles pinned to different virtual consoles. It has always

Hi I would like to use xen on my company laptop (DELL Latitude D830 with dual core intel cpu + 2 GB RAM) but first have to unclear some doubts about xen hypervisor. So, my company provided winxp preinstaled with some special software for my job. In addition I made dual boot with linux or opensolaris. Now I would like to be on my linux all the time with ability of using winxp all the time. :-)

23 Sep 2010 I have a dual boot using two separate hard disks. Win XP is installed on sda and Ubuntu 10.04 on sdb. I have installed WINE on sdb. Can I use WINE to install a device driver for Win XP from sdb without starting Win XP? When I try to start WinXP it gives a message about the lack of a suitable device driver for my NVIDIA video card then stops booting. I want to install a new driver

Good one Norbert, And this is exacly as im doing my software installs. My collega finds it very annoying. :-) I also added ( through GPO ) that, once your logged in the Domain, all software add/remove functions are disabled, even for Domain admins, only "local - pc admins" can install software. ( use .\localInstallAdmin ) where "." is equal to the pc name. That is
