Since upgrading to samba 3.0.23c when I try and access the samba shares it continually prompts me for a username and password. The samba server has been joined to a win2k3 domain and should be allowing access based on the windows domain accounts like it used to be doing, but that is no longer working. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Kind regards, Elvar

Hello all, I've set up samba as a PDC in FreeBSD 5.1-release. I seemed to have no problems joining my computer to the domain as it said "Welcome to the domain" but when I try and log in it says it can't contact the domain controller or the domain account doesn't exist. Can anyone offer any help on how to fix this? Here is my smb.conf. Kind regards, Elvar [global]

Hello, I've managed to join four other samba servers to win2k3 domains in the past but I am stuck doing so with samba-3.0.23c_2,1. I've verified hosts / domain forward and reverse lookups succeed.

Hello everyone, I've been tasked with setting up several computer labs in a school with Ubuntu workstations. I have successfully joined those workstations to the windows domain and set it up so they authenticate to the windows domain as well.

Hi all, I ran across a few threads on google regarding FreeBSD's rsync mknod problem but I didn't find any good fix. I was wondering if anyone knows more about this and a good fix. Here's an example of the output. mknod qmail/queue/lock/trigger : Invalid argument mknod qmail/supervise/qmail-send/log/supervise/control : Invalid argument mknod

I'm reposting this problem (perhaps a bug) now I've got more information on it. This is another point of view of the situation and I hope someone could have run into the same trouble before (and solved it :-)) This is it: * with ntbackup 2000 I create a 22Gb .bkf file in the windows machine. * I can copy that file over a samba share and get correct info form the file in windows

Hi all, I experienced the same problem with 3.0.4 that Jeremy and Bruno were discussing - NTBackup unable being to connect to shares and erroring out with 'Access Denied'. I have today upgraded to 3.0.5 (using the Debian Woody packages) and that didn't fix the problem. Was the fix in 3.0.5r1 only applicable to 2000/2003 server? I am stuck in the dark ages of NT 4 here, maybe that is a

Hi I have a Linux/XFS/Samba that Windows Domain users access through client machines either by UNC or mapped drive. I am trying to work out a backup plan. I would like to use ntbackup to achieve this with Normal (once) and Differential (daily) backups. However, when I run the normal backup the archive checkbox does not get cleared so the differential backup backs up everything again. I have

Hello. We are having a really strange problem and I have been searching the net all day for a answer. We are trying to restore files from NTBackup to a Samba share using alternate pathing in ntbackup. The samba machine is a Solaris 8 machine with Samba 3.0.3 beeing a member of out AD domain. We map the samba share to Y:\ on the XP machine using a named account in AD, with a local

Hi all, I'm experiencing a problem when NTBACKING'UP my W2000 Server files against a Linux 2.4.9 + ReiserFS 3.6 file system + Samba share. It works OK for the first 4 Gb's around file size. Then ntbackup stops serving data and the file on the samba side appears to be downsized to 0 and growing ssssslowly. Once you stop ntbackup by killing the process, the file reappears at its real

Hello, I tested to transfer all 7 FSMOs from Windows Server 2003 Enterprise to Samba 4.3.0 DC. (I think some users still use Win2K3 and want to migrate.) But unfortunately is failed. To reproduce, (1) Promoto Win2K3R2 Enterprise host to first DC. (2) Join self-built Samba 4.3.0 to the domain. (3) Run 'samba-tool fsmo transfer --role=all' root at jessie64-1:~# samba-tool fsmo

Hi all, Has anyone got any advice on the best way to backup Exchange mailboxes (Exchange 5.5) running on a Windows 2000 server? We already use rsync on a number of other Windows boxes for general file backup. I've read that even if you get backups of the Exchange mailbox files, then it's really tricky to get the mailboxes back into Exchange if the server dies. Anyone got any tips on

Hi All, I have been having problems with the known issue on 3.0.4 with NTBackup and a DFS related issue. Therefore I decided to give 3.0.5rc1 a go, as SuSE have released the rpms on their website. Once I installed the rpms, I found that all daemons started correctly, but all domain authentication failed (I am running a samba server as a member server against a Windows 2000 mixed mode domain).

We are migrating an LTO2 library off Veritas and NTBackup on a Windows Server to a Linux Server with either Bacula or Amanda. Originally, the Windows server used scripts to sync changes from various other Windows servers using Robocopy to a locally attached set of volumes, then ran the backup nightly (Full's were always done). I now had hoped to rsync the Samba shares to a local replica on
