Hi, are there any know problems with f-secure scanner and roaming profiles? We have a lot of users with problems syncing their roaming profile from the domain server. It seems to be a problem with f-secure's on-access scanning (may be timeout problem?). Some users have to login three or four times, before getting their roaming profile and not the default profile. System: 3.0.24-6etch9

Hi, I've problems to install printer drivers as a normal user with unprivileged rights on WinXP in a samba 3.0.24 domain (debian etch) using the "Point-and-Print" mechanism. I've read Volker Lendecke's Samba book on page 131 footnote 1, which mention to enable "point and print". Which reg keys do I have to set to install drivers by "Point and Print"?

Hi, I have a strange behaviour when creating new files. When opening word, excel, ppt or txt to create a new document (e.g. I use the word icon on the desktop to start word) and save the file to the home share H: an empty (0 KB) file with the same name as the saved document is created in the trash folder. Why this second empty file in the trash folder? Going directly to the home share H: and

Hi, do ports 445 and 139 (incoming) have to be open for the samba server's IP on WinXP client side (all WinXP clients are using netbios over TCP/IP)? F-Secure 7.10 blocks all incoming microsoft-ds (445) and netbios-ssn (139) by default, which ends up in very slow printer-shares behaviour (for example opening the properties or the spool window of a samba-printer takes up to 30 seconds). For

Hi. I'm tesing Samba 3.0.7-a on Debian Sarge with Debian kernel 2.6.8. I am working on auto-creation of logon scripts, & am using a root preexec on the netlogon share for this. In testing I have passed the user ID to the script, and have used echo to test output. The netlogon service parameters and other info are below. The output from the script occurs twice in the output file,

Hi, are there any known problems with Debian's Samba version 3.0.14a-3sarge1 ? I read about client/server connection problems. Are there any reasons, why not to use 3.0.14a-3sarge1 version or should I go to Version 3.0.22-0bpo1 from backports.org? Thanks, Marcus

Hi, I've problems to get accounting information for print jobs. I'm using samba and CUPs on debian etch.

Hi I have a little problem with my ldap authorization of samba against Novel LDAP server. This is the log output from the Novel Ldap server: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- New TCP connection 0xcb1e3980, monitor = 0x1bf, index = 2 (0xcb1e3980:0x0001:0x60) DoBind on connection 0xcb1e3980 (0xcb1e3980:0x0001:0x60) DoBind: name =

Hi, I'm using vfs object recycle with samba 3.0.14a on Debian sarge and can't figure out, why the trash folder is created with the rights drwx------ 3 admin2 admin 4096 2007-02-06 17:49 Trash and not with the directory mask 0775. -------- [vol] comment = share vol path = /vol/ create mask = 0664 force create mode = 0664 force group = admin

Hi, I am trying to setup a Samba PDC with Windows XP Pro Clients. I currently run a Samba 2.2 PDC and am trying to change over to a Samba 3.0.5 PDC with an LDAP backend. I can join the domain fine, but from there things are getting rough. The Samba server is running on a Fedora Core 2 box with all the current updates and all my clients are XP Pro. As soon as I logon (with any account), I get

Hi, a while ago i had to migrate from old server on Debian Sarge to new one on Debian Etch (amd64). Since then, with the same config i had earlier it became a common problem that client workstations connecting to the server have to reauthenticate very often (at least few times a day), and the staff is going to kill me if i dont fix this soon. Any ideas what could be the cause/solution ? --

I have a patch that enables "user password timeout" for 2.2.2. It works only for WinNT, Win2000 (tested and Samba on AIX and Linux) and I think with WinXP. It does not work with Win9x. You can download the patch from http://www.m-wohlfarth.de/Downloads/Samba/samba.html. I never had the problem with automatically expiring password as described in the originating message - I couldn't

Hi, I'm building "cheap" print servers using old Pentium 133 (150, 200 or 233) with 32 (or 64) MB of RAM memory. Small HDs (2.1, 3.5, 4.2) GB and using Debian Sarge (3.1), with kernel 2.6, CUPS and Samba 3.0.10. The print part is ok, works fine and it is just information to the background. Now our IT team decided to put a CD and make the "cheap" print servers became

Timo Sirainen writes: > #expire = Trash 7 Spam 30 Does the above mean one will be able to indicate multiple folders to expire? That is great! Any thoughts on having a per mailbox setting? For ISPs , one may want to give users the option to enable/disable the feature and perhaps give them a choice of dates.. ie Trash 7 days or 30 days. Spam 1 day or 7 days.

Hello, I'm using Samba 3.0.21a on Debian Sarge, tdbsam account backend. I was playing around with pdbedit and the account control flags, and noticed a different behaviour from what I expected: if the password for a user has expired, and I set the "X" account flag for him (pdbedit -c "[X]" username), I'd expect the system to never tell him about his expired

Hi, I'd like to install a groupware server in our institute and looking for a software, which connects samba and the groupware server, for example for authentication (may be LDAP) and (more importent) to see the samba shares (user and groups) in the groupware web-front-end. I've talked this week to the open-xchange people at CeBit, and if I understud them right, the samba integration is

I am running debian sarge 2.4.27-3-686 and samba version 3.0.14a-Debian . The previous machine was running rh 7.3 (valhalla) 2.4.20-29.7.progeny.11, samba version unknown. I have restored all shares and directories. Most of users can access everything, however our login script will not run. For those users that cannot log in re-joining them to the domain not only works but then the login
