I think I understand perimission in this environment with one exception: I need to add more than one group to a file/folder. With Windows..the security tab would allow any number of Groups and each group could have different permissions. (As well with files and subdirectories). With

I'm trying to set up Samba 3.0.20-4-SUSE on a opensuse 10 machine. I'm working with XP Pro on the client machine. I can't get the XP mahcine (RDS7) to join the domain (UCD).

The samba log is: auth/auth.c:check_ntlm_password(317) check_ntlm_password: Authentication for user [root] -> [root] FAILED with error

Hi guys, Not sure how to diagnose this problem however i have recently upgraded one of my schools sites from gentoo to freebsd which moved us from samba 3.0.14 to 3.0.21b and the first thing I noticed was when the students came to login if they all logged in at once the performance of login was crippled to a near standstill! As a test i swapped in the gentoo box and forced the upgrade to

Hi Everybody, I've been asked to upgrade an old NT4 server with a new server running Debian/Samba. I've got no problem with migrating the old server, but I do have one "unknown". The company mail run on an Exchange server that is most likely part of the NT4 network. Has anybody tried this setup? I did look in documentation and google and found precious little - which to me

Wlcome in the club :-) I wrote a topic "Limit of group membership for a user?" with the same problem, and I don't have any answer by the samba team. I have the most recent Samba 3.0.21b, OpenLDAP 2.2.28 and Glibc 2.3.6 version on a Gentoo (kernel 2.6.15) and I have the same problem. I check the NGROUP_MAX (65535) and the NSS_BUFLEN_GROUP (2048) value of the glibc. For the AMD64

dear list, I'm trying to migrate nt4 to samba3, and have two issues at the moment. First is: I'm getting two (small?) errors using smbldap-populate on my ldap database. At first I tried ignoring this, but now also rpc net vampire complains. (maybe because of this..?) This is the output of smbldap-populate: <quote> server:/usr/local/sbin # smbldap-populate Using builtin directory

Hello, Just wondering what I should be using for the password change program on a BDC. Should it be: passwd program = /usr/bin/smbpasswd -r <PDC address> %u I'm having a problem with passwords not staying in sync between the PDC and BDC with pass backend ldap. The systems are all Fedora Core 4, Samba 3.0.14a, openldap 2.2.23 Kent N

I have done all I can think of to make Samba be a PDC, but I can't get my Windows XP-SP2 client to join the domain. I've already edited the Group Policy for the roaming profile thingumyjig. I am asked for the user/pass (I use root) to add the machine to the domain, and the error is: "The user name could not be found". Here's my smb.conf, and group information.

I was wondering, if it's possible to set up Samba as a sort of a domain controller for Linux workstations? I'm thinking of benefits like roaming profiles, managing printers etc. Or perhaps for Linux there are better choices than Samba, when it comes to the office / school use (many users, many classrooms, many workstations etc.)? -- Tomek http://wpkg.org
