registering samba in wins
for some strange reason, our wins servers occasionally drop samba servers out of there name space. to deal with this, I cron'ed a restart of samba at midnight everynight. This was a quick solution, but a lousy one. I would rather have some way to have samba regularly send name registration requests to wins. Is there a way to do this? barring that, is there some interface I can query on samba

non-windows management solutions
I would like a non-windows management solution for all the stupid windows machines we have. I will gladly exclude any of the win9x machines from this -- so I will be working with win2k and winXP machines. I would like to have the capabilities that AD offers -- but I would rather not use AD. These include things like group policy objects, trusted user accounts data base, etc. All the things a

remote windows management
I keep hoping for better wasy to remotely manage windows machines through samba. In the very old samba-tng there was an rpcclient that could connect to a remote machine and do various things like read/write the registry, grab event logs, etc. I could never get it to work very well and waited for a better one. The trouble is the rpcclient program in samba-current doesn't have these features.

active directory pains
After googling a bit, it seems that only way samba playes with active directory is with samba 3.x I'f been use samba 2.x with 'pass through' authentication and would like to get rid of the pass through auth cause it seems to cause problems. Yet, I don't know if I can trust samba 3 -- Has anyone been able to get a samba 2.x server to join a an Active Directory domain? My

long print times
we have two machines/users that experience extremely long wait times when printing documents to samba servers. Both machines are Windows XP. We have also noted that both were running personal firewalls, one was micrisofts, the other was kerio. We also noted that when turning these firewalls OFF, the wait times vanished and the systems behaved normally. Has anyone else seen this behavior? Any

problems with samba 3.x
I upgraded from Samba 2.x to Samba 3.x on my FreeBSD box. I used the ports collection to do it. Currently, samba is at samba-3.0.10,1 I did a rapid test of after make install from a windows XP box. It worked fine. I also test from another samba client on linux. Again, all was fine However, when I attempt to access this server from ANY windows 2000 box I get the message: >net use s:

AD function without AD
I'm very interesting in attempting to get the control over my windows machines that AD offers, without actually have AD. I know samba 3 can be a AD member server.. Are there any other projects that integrate samba, ldap, kerberos to make a active directory like system? Note that I said AD like. My goals include 1) single sign on through kerb 2) access control through ldap groups 3)

samba and kerberos
I'm trying to understand what kerberos support samba has. If I have a windows XP client with MIT Kerberos for Windows, AND I authenticate to a KDC, will I then be able to use those kerberos auth credentials to access shares in samba? My ignorance here is what happens to the NTLM password hashes. Samba is going to expect a password hash. Can samba be configured to ask a kdc if a kerberos

strange authentication issue
I have a samba v3.0.x server that is a member of an nt 4 domain. I have an nt 4 PDC that I have effectively joined the server to. Using smbclient from a linux box I can connect to the samba server we'll call srvX using userid/pwd credentials from the domain and it works great. However, from a windows XP machine that is not a member of the domain, I cannot make a connection to srvX using

homes share inclusion
We have a domain controlled by nt4 and are added 3 samba server to it. The easiest way for us to handle user accounts on the linux machines is to have a central repository of id's -- and then script adding the accounts. We do not see building ldap as something that will work for now. I am thinking that all domain users will just need accounts on all 3 linux/samba servers. The difficulty

lock file information
Does samba store information on lock files in a tdb somewhere? If we have a process that has a lock on a file that we can't get samba to surrender, is there a recommended way of forcing samba to release it? For example, a process on machine A has file B on server X open an locked.. and the machine A hangs for some reason never releasing the lock on file B. Is there a recommended way to tell

securing root to administrator mapping
I'm just starting to convert to using samba 3 --. Untill now, my use of samba has been pretty simple. I've not used it as a DC and I've use passthrough auth.. I know some say its ugly (and it can be) but its made my life easier most of the time. Now I'm reading through the samba docs, howto's, etc and I am still very uncomfortable mapping the windows Administrator account to

posix acls vs unix groups and nt acls
I'm looking for info on using posix acls in samba. I'd like them to look and feel like nt acls. I'd like to use the windows client to set the acls on the samba server. I've got the official samba 3 howto book, but can't seem to figure things out from there. specifically, in the past I've used a force group entry in combined with create modes to keep shared files access to
