Hi, I have samba-3.0.23d-1tr on a trustix 3.0 system. This samba was joined to a win 2k3 domain and it works perfect for lot of months.

If I launch wbinfo -u or wbinfo -g, I still see the users/group from win2k3 server, but in the log of my winxp client (whose name is Euro15), I see: [2006/12/27 11:52:31, 2]

I have a friend that had a samba server go down. They switched to another server and are having problems with people logging into it from Windows 98.

For reasons that I won't bother to detail here, I ended up volunteering to upgrade the server at my kids school. It's a small private school with an all-volunteer tech support staff (me!). We currently have about 40 computers serving about 150 people.

Hi, I have a very small setup, one XP/clinet and one Vista/client and a Ubuntu/samba server. I like to cleanup my log.smbd but I can't figure out how! I have everything up and running and I can access the share's from the XP client. I googled around and it seems that I should bind some Windows group/user against Unix group/users with something like 'net groupmap add rid=2512

Samba version is 3.0.26a IIRC (I can't access the machine ATM) I'm stumped with a problem and I believe it's related, somehow, with the 'force user' parameter, so I created this testcase to seek for help... In the example smb.conf I'm trying to create one share accessible

Hi list, My brand new samba network is working pretty good, ironing out some glitches. Win XP users cannot change their password. I use SaMBa as a domain-controller with an LDAP backend. A stripped down version of the config is below. I set minimum password length to 8, trying to change the password to a 7 char long gives me the messages that the password does not meet requirements.
