Hi, I have some databases running on CentOS4 with users accessing the shell (bash), so I'd like to strong the security on my server in user's accounts and passwords..

mksmbpasswd.sh does not create accounts with the X flag in the password flags field. Does this X matter, and if so, what does it mean?

I am trying to set up dovecot in a postfix virtual account/domains setting. In the configuration file I would like to use %d in two places, for: mail_location = /var/mail/vhosts/%d/%n and to specify the location of the respective passwd file: passdb passwd-file { args = /etc/auth/%d/shadow } Looking at the logs, %d is empty while %n works, so dovecot is looking for something in

Could somebody please explain just how one is supposed to set up samba users, groups and passwords so connections can be established to Win2k clients to connect to FBSD samba server for file sharing and to use cups for printing. I am afraid that the manuals and config files and various examples I have found on the Internet are quite confusing. How is the Windows username/passord related to

Hi there! I'm not sure I can create a minimal example of my problem, so I'm linking to a minimal .RData file that has only two objects: obs and exp, each is a 6x9 matrix. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/10364753/test.RData link to dropbox file (I hope this is acceptable mailing list etiquette!) Here's what happens: > obs[1, 1] [1] 118 > exp[1, 1] [1] 118 > obs[1, 1]-exp[1, 1] [1]

Hi, I'm using samba-3.0.28-0.fc8. I'm trying to build a file server for 100 users. I created a perl script that automatically adds the 100 users plus their passwords with success. Now I'm having difficulty creating a script using the smbpasswd command because passwords must be entered in stdin. I also tried smbpasswd -s option but it asks passwd in stdin. Is there a way that I can use

Hello I'm running a Win2K box with a dialogic voice application. The prompt files are on an AIX 5.1 box. By using smbstatus I'm finding that the prompt files aren't closing. The open files build up until the server hits the per process limit, at which point everything falls apart. I was running samba 2.07, but I just upgraded to 3.0.23rc3 and I still have the problem. I used

I realize this is not a Samba specified quesiton... but I thought someone here might have some experience with this. After migrating from an purely S4 AD domain to a purely Windows 2008R2 AD domain one is left with no functioning SYSVOL replication (FRS or DFS).

How to do that? Many thanks for your time on my

Hi, I have samba installed on my Linux system (Red Hat 7.2), and Windows 98 on another PC as a Samba client. Samba works great if PlainTextPassword is enabled.

Hi, An offtopic quesiton, but I could not think of asking any other list where it might be answered. I have a client uploading a few designs (25-30 Mbs) daily at a remote ftp server. We download them in morning. Since we have a slow connection we daily waste a couple of hours downloading it. Is there any way I can download them at night. The only thing is that I am not sure of the time they

Hi List, I need my users to change their passwords, so I defined them as webmin users and gived them access only to the system/change password option to do so. So far so good... they changed their system passwords (in order to access email) but the change it's not reflected in samba passwords. I defined the option change password in other modules in webmin but it doesn't works, I also
