We make use of NT4 policies on our Samba domain. NTconfig.POL needs to be in \\domaincontroller\netlogon. I don't believe that you can use Active Directory GPOs (group policy objects) with a Samba domain. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Tony Hoover, Network Administrator KSU - Salina, College of Technology and Aviation (785) 826-2660

The thing is, on the same machine, same net same moment, when I load the same folder from windows XP (through parallels) it takes like 10sec while samba 10min!!! MTU is 1500, set to match 100T devices like router and NAS on the LAN. Even on crossover cable it freaks out the same way. Btw my NAS is a Lacie Ethernet drive with linux based firmware and samba. Funny enough I load folders (ie

Due to a up-tick in the amount of SPAM my account has been receiving, I googled my e-mail address, and discovered that my e-mail address, along with the e-mail addresses of many subscribers to the SAMBA mailing list (samba at lists.samba.org) are being published in a harvestable form on your website. Specifically, this page: http://omgili.com/usrmgr.exe-, although there may be more instances.

Some default setting have changed. Use: testparm -v from your various versions of samba to detect which parameters may be causing you issues. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Tony Hoover, Network Administrator KSU - Salina, College of Technology and Aviation (785) 826-2660 "Don't Blend in..."

"net rpc vampire ..." does NOT set the SAM or SECURITY hives of the registry to "readable", which is what renders the PDC non-operable. "net rpc vampire ..." is safe to use as many times as it takes to get comfortable with the process. I did it my self when I was converting our "labs" NT4 domain to Samba. --

We recently ran into a similar issue. If you have any microsoft "Live" components installed on your 7 box, samba servers must be contacted by numeric IP address rather than netbios (or even IP mnemonic) name. http://www.sevenforums.com/network-sharing/8303-cant-connect-samba-share-via -name-ip-works.html ---------------------------------------------- Tony Hoover, Network

When I upgrade a major revision (3.4.x -> 3.5.x ), I always get a listing from "testparm -v" before and after the upgrade to make sure that a parameter (that I didn't specify in the config) didn't change it's default setting. ---------------------------------------------- Tony Hoover, Network Administrator KSU - Salina, College of Technology and Aviation (785) 826-2660

It looks to me like you have "ldap user suffix" and "ldap machine suffix" defined twice. testparm should tell you which of these definitions samba is using. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Tony Hoover, Network Administrator KSU - Salina, College of Technology and Aviation (785) 826-2660 "Don't Blend in..."

We use pGINA (www.pgina.org) to authenticate windows user logins via ldaps:// against the university directory. Don't know if that will fit your model, but it works for us. ---------------------------------------------- Tony Hoover, Network Administrator KSU - Salina, College of Technology and Aviation (785) 826-2660 "Don't Blend in..."

Have you checked the network end of things? This is the same type of thing I see when the NIC and ethernet switch don't autonegotiate to the same settings. Hope I didn't step on anybody's toes here. I'm new to the list. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tony Hoover, Network Administrator KSU - Salina, College of Technology and

Hi all, I've compiled samba 4 from branches and it worked like a charm. I'm trying to use regshell to read (remotely) the following Windows registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall I can connect to the remote machine with no problems: ./regshell --remote=192.168.50.142 --user=Administrador%xxx HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT> HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT>

Okay, so I've just put the sernet repo file in my yum.repos.d directory and a yum update will elevate my samba server to the latest version. Is there any pitfall that is out there that I can avoid before yum updating. Centos 5.3 samba3-3.0.34-37 & related packages openldap-2.3.43-3.el5 & related packages I still have my samba3-3.0.34 packages squirreled away so I can force downgrade

I recently setup a new server with CentOS 5.2. Everything works great on the server except when I try to join the domain it simply tells me: "The following error occurred attempting to join the domain "Domain": The user name could not be found. I have researched this error and attempted a number of fixes but have been unable to resolve the issue. I am able to connect to

Hello list, Is it possible to implement machine policies with Samba-3.0.x? Is so, how? I'm asking because I need to update registry settings and tz info for the computers on the domain, but the logon script is executed by the user (which doesn't have privileges to modify the registry entries nor date/time/tz configuration.) Many thanks in advance, Norberto

Hi I'm trying to get my samba file server to authenticate against my windows 2008 active directory server , so that there is a unified log in and if anyone logs onto the box the they are authenticated against the a server and there account is created. I'm battling to get my samba server server to join the domain .. I can get any further than this [root@technical-vmlab ~]# kinit

Glad to hear that you succeeded in getting Samba installed. Next steps to getting it to work are: 1) edit your /etc/samba/smb.conf file to fit the needs of your network. 2) use "testparm" (without the quotes) to verify that your smb.conf file is correct. 3) start your samba services with: service smb start service winbind start (if you need winbind) 4) connect to a samba share with

All, Looks like I'm in a predicament. One of our new sites will prompt users (in IE) to display "mixed content". Which is basically asking if you want to display some http in a https site. I have found the solution, (besides having a user go into IE's tools / privacy / custom settings / enable mix content) - with a registry entry. However, the registry entry goes to:

Hi all, I am currently fighting with roaming user profiles which shall be stored on an Ubuntu 8.04 Xeon (64 bit) box. I'm running the stock Ubuntu packages (version 3.0.28a-1ubuntu4.4). The Ubuntu box runs as PDC with a LDAP backend. Adding a Win 2000 SP4 workstation to the domain works flawlessly. If I log on on the workstation with a root-like account (UNIX user id 0, UNIX
