Sorry still unable to find documentation Hello I have set up a Samba 3 PDC on RHEL4 using the tdbsam backed. I can log in as a user who has been added to the tdbsam database from a workstation. When I try to add the workstation to the domain (after breaking user connections to the server) I get "The following error occurred while trying to joining the domain xyz.com. Access denied. I

I'm setting up a new domain with Samba 3.0.30 as the PDC using the tdbsam backend. 'net group' yields an empty list, which is consistent with the cautious appoach that Samba takes: don't do anything automagically. But, a new Windows PDC will come online with several well-known domain users and groups. Did I miss the step where I run some stock script that creates these expected

My goal is to have a business with multiple locations, all have the same desktop for a certain user group. The quick Launch programs, Start Menu and Desktop icons should all be the same, and be 'read only' -- meaning they can't change them. I'm using ClearOS for the PDC, and I have it working already as the PDC, but I'm not quite sure how to setup the remote profiles and lock

We're using Samba 3.0.21a-1 on a CentOS 4.2 server (kernel 2.6.9-22.0.2.ELsmp); everything works more or less fine, it's functioning as the PDC with an OpenLDAP back end (setup essentially straight from the Idealx.org playbook), etc. We're trying to mount Windows shares to back them up, and getting "permission denied" errors when trying to read certain files from those

Hello, I'm trying to setup a PDC with Samba, but I have the known problem of the roaming profiles: big files. I think it's difficult to guarantee that a inexperienced user will copy is downloaded files, documents, or whatever, to a H:\ share instead of is handy desktop. Other problem is the files of Outlook or Thunderbird that can get big. The goal is to avoid email configuration each

Dear list, I compiled Samba 3.2.0 document like this. cd samba-3.2.0/source configure ... ... ... cd ../docs-xml make all but some error happen. --------------------------------- # make all ... ... xsltproc --output output/manpages-3/eventlogadm.8 xslt/man.xsl tmp/manpages-3/eventlogadm.8.xml runtime error: file xslt/man.xsl line 41 element if unregistered variable list-indent

I've got a bunch of Win XP Pro machines, and I setup domain logins to the samba server so I'd have roaming profiles, etc. Alas, I've now discovered that windows doesn't let you use fast user switching when you do domain logins. I really want fast user switching -- is there a way to configure samba / winXP to fake some the domain login features? I don't care about password sync

Hi, I got samba 3.0.26a on my Fedora 7, and when i try to add users with smbpasswd -a username, it only works if the user exists as a linux user... i got a Centos 4.4 system with samba 3.0.10 and it works even if the user doesn't exists on the system. Can anyone explain me why this happens? is it from this new version (3.0.26a) or may be a problem of Fedora 7?

Hi people. I have had been working in my first PDC with samba+ldap, is working in Centos 5.3. Now I have been searching about how to backup this installation, for samba, looks like I need to backup: /etc/samba Exist some else that I need to backup for samba? Now, I had not been able to find something about how to backup my ldap server. I just backup /etc/openldap and /var/lb/ldap

Hi, I use CentOS4 (RHEL4) and it seems that I was using /var/lib/samba for storing the .tdb files. Then I compilled the fedora .src.rpm from samba.org and it points now to /var/cache/samba I will build tonight the .rpm from the .tar.gz and see which directory samba choose for the .tdb files in CentOS4. Anyone can confirm this list of distro/.tdb directory: Fedora: /var/cache/samba CentOS4:

Greetings list, It's been a while since I've been able to focus on asterisk packaging but this weekend I took some time to audit and recompile packages for CentOS 4.2. You can find them here. ftp://ftp.linuxsys.com/ftp/pub/releases/CentOS-4.0 You have your choice of 1.2.1 or 1.0.10 releases. If you need zaptel modules then install this kernel as well:

Will Samba support "fallback" to local domain for authentication of local users? I joined a RHEL4 server running Samba 3.0.10-1.4E.11 to a Windows 2000/2003 mixed-mode domain today using "security = domain", after having run for many months in "security = user" mode. Authentication works fine for users defined in the Windows domain, but we have a few users (mainly

To whom it corresponds, I have been trying to connect my RHEL4 machine through public key authentication against a windows server 2003 machine running OpenSSH for Windows v3.8.1p1-1. I set up everything: keys, user, etc. Doing sftp -vv user@<wsip> I see that authentication went ok but somehow, connection hangs up. I removed anti-virus and other security software on the ws2003 machine

I recently set up a new RHEL4 server with samba-3.0.10 in a Windows 2003 server PDC domain. I can log on as one user from different workstations on to the new samba server. With several other users, I get this error: Oct 18 16:41:34 samba-server smbd[2502]: krb5_rd_req(CIFS/samba-server@MY.DOM) failed: Wrong principal in request Oct 18 16:41:34 samba-server smbd[2502]: [2005/10/18 16:41:34,

Hello everyone, We are investigating migrating our Windows 2003 active directory domain to a purely Samba one. I am a relative novice to Samba. I have used it many times to do simple file and printer sharing on an individual or workgroup basis, but never in a domain environment. One of the things I need to find out how to do involves delivering Windows profiles. On our Windows network, some

i can't find licence information for the following files: http://hostopia.samba.org/samba/docs/Samba3-HOWTO.pdf http://hostopia.samba.org/samba/docs/Samba3-ByExample.pdf As you see, they are two basic samba information sources, and I need to know if I can just print it and leave in computer lab for all who wish to avoid reading it from monitor. It is about 1300 pages total, so I need to make

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

Recently I posted to this list with a question about using the Intel 10.1 compilers in building R and one response was basically, "why in the heck would you want to do that?" The answer is that my sysadmin believes that there will be a performance boost with the Intel vs. Gnu compilers on our Linux cluster, of which I am one of many users. Wanting to be a good citizen and use my machine
