Configuration: Samba 2.2.8a with openLDAP 2.1.30 on a SeSE 8.2. server When adding a user using a ldif file we give the user a given name, say Ruud Baart. The cn and uid are the same, say 21cs12345 (a studentnumber). After adding the user to LDAP the displayname is as expected: "Ruud Baart". However after smbpasswd -a 21cs12345 -s secret the displayname is "21cs12345".

We upgraded from 2.2.3a to 2.2.4 on a SuSE 7.2 server. We compiled Samba just default. The new version seems to work ok with the exception of printer administration. Printer admins are not able to see the properties of the printers (right click on printer gives on error). Our workstations are W2k SP2. But users that are not printer admin are able to see the properties of a printer, but they

I'm converting my NT 4.0 Print Servers to Samba Print Servers. Which printing system should I be using? LPR, LPRng or CUPS. I would love to have some feedback on the advantages and disadvantages or what the Samba Team recommends as a standard for working wih Samba. In case you need it, my system is SuSE 7 kernel 2.2.16 running under VM on s/390. Thanks, Josh Konkol, CNE MCSE Senior

Our server is a SuSE Linux 7.2 with CVS samba 2.2 branche. Version number is 2.2.pre-4. We updated today. We have a problem with the default devmode in Windows 2000 (SP2) clients. We have uploaded the printerdrivers to the share print$. The Samba printeradministrator is able to change the printer capabilities as memory, trays, papersize. etc. Changes are global: when a user logs in, he sees

The problem description below is relevant for those who use samba + LDAP. We installed four Intel Xeon servers with standard SuSE 8.2, samba + ldap. The W2K client complained about very, very, very slow reponse from the server. Below is we descripe the reasons and the solution. We have big problems with openldap version 2.1.12 (standard suse 8.2 rpm) and the name server cache daemon versiom

Server is PII-350MHz/256 MB RAM, hardware mirrored high speed SCSI disks. Installed is SuSE 8.2 with Samba 2.2.8a RPM, XFS filesystems and LPRng as printservices. Server acts as PDC and WINS server.

Not very important but installation of shorewall 4.4.14 (and probably other versions) on a old Slackware system (10.2) fails: install -T -o root -g root -m 0755 shorewall /sbin/shorewall ERROR: Failed to install -T -o root -g root -m 0755 shorewall /sbin/shorewall Setting T="" instead of T="-T" in install.sh solves the problem but it is not a solution. -- Regards,

Hi I have successfully configured my SuSE Linux 9.0 server to use Samba 3.0.14 and accept my Windows 2000 users through Active Directory to access the shares. However I have some shares that have paths that are made up of %g/%U variables. The %U works fine but I cannot get the %g in any format to give me just the group name I get DOMAIN/groupname sent through instead which is making the paths

As far as I saw, since some microsoft patch for AD, winbind client from samba 3.0.14 (and prior versions) does not work properly for getting users and groups from Active Directory.

Hello, I was using version 3.0.14 and upgraded to 3.0.20a. I did not change my config, however, I am seeing some serious problems now, and I am not sure what to do about it. I noticed there were a large number of changes between these two versions. I looked at the changes briefly, but there are just so many. This samba server is a domain memmber, on an ADS domain with a win 2003 enterprise

Hi, I'm interested in the update of the samba version in one of our servers, but I'm confused: http://www.samba.org says the last stable version of samba is 3.0.14, but the link is not working, and in various ftp mirrors, in their "stable" subdirectory, I see the 3.0.9 versi?n as the last versi?n. What's happening? Can you help me? Thanks --
