Hi list, I am brand new to this list and have come across an issue with one of my servers that I can't seem to figure out: First the specifics of the clients and server: Clients: OS - Windows XP PRO SP2 10/100 MB Ethernet adapters (different types in all units) --> Not sure what else you need to know here Server: Mac OS X Server (v10.4.3) running Samba version 3.0.10 User Home

Hi, I am running a Panther Server as a domain controller with a Mac Tiger Server (all latest patches) as the location of home folders and group shares. I have one group of users who keep losing connection to the server (both home and group folders). The can only reconnect to the server if they logoff the XP client and login again. I have loads of other XP users and Mac clients who do not have

I'm running Samba on a Mac OS X server, and the server is a member of a Windows domain (Windows 2003). Samba is setup for security=domain permissions. I have opened up a file share to the Windows machines named AppDeployment. I'm able to open \\xserve\AppDeployment on a Windows server, and am able to create directories and copy files in there. (Btw, when i attempt to "net

Dear Samba Team, from a few days i'm trying to use samba on my powerbook, with panther 10.3.5. I'm also trying to enable swat where i succeded, but with some anomalies.

I've attached an Apple XServe to our Windows domain, and have successfully setup all the Active Directory integration. I've been able to expose a file share to Windows via Samba from the XServe, but it's still requring a guest account login. For example, when i try and open <file://\\xserve\AppStorage> \\xserve\AppStorage from the Windows Explorer, it shows a username/pwd

Hi everyone, I am struggling to promote a samba 3.0.10 standalone server to a BDC, because it cannot contact the PDC which is on a different subnet connected via a VPN. Having lost several days I believe this may be because it Samba is broadcasting WINS domain discovery requests on its local subnet, which of course it not reaching the PDC as broadcasts are not sent across the VPN. The PDC is

I recently switched from using Redhat Linux 9 to SuSE 9.2 Pro and am having problems with an auto mounted share served from a Macintosh running Mac OS 10.3.6. I can read from the share without problems. However, writing to it is a different story. All the files/folders on the share are owned by janee in the group janee and have rw owner and group permissions. I've tried playing with the

I am running Samba 3.0.5 on OS X 10.3.8 Server. It's the stock Samba supplied by Apple with no modifications. I am running a variety of shares on the system to around 50 PC clients. I came into the office this morning with a dead Xserve... could not login, could not ping or ssh into the system. Users in the office could not even browse the network. When they tried to browse the

Hi everyone. Could anyone tell me what would be the repercussion of adding all users to "Domain Admins" in a samba environment. The reason I am asking is because we are getting a picker object error when trying to add "Domain Users" to the Local Administrator group. Domain Admin gets added ok during join. Thanks. -- Dominique

Hello List, I have a bit of a strange problem with an OS 10.3.3 XServe (Samba 3.0.2) that I've inherited from a previous sysadmin ;). It's a bit hard to describe but I'll do my best and include applicable log files and the smb.conf. Ok, first of all this machine is bound to our Active Directory domain and authenticates users there (security = ads). It uses the Windows 2000 DC

Hi, I would be very grateful if anyone could give me a bit of help with this. I am trying to run Samba 3.0.5, as distributed with Mac OS X server 10.3.8, on an Apple Xserve. Things were working beautifully until I had problems with an IP address change and had to reinstall everything. At present, the situation seems to be that the smb protocol is operating, since I can make an smb

My company, which is a mac-heavy shop in the printing industry, needed to migrate to a faster file server. As our directory trees are very large, both Samba, and Netatalk were bogging down badly on our Linux server (Samba, due to heavy CPU usage during directory listings - the case-sensitive file system issue, and netatalk because the cnid db was getting too big). Our solution was to switch to a
