similar to: assigning letter in smb.conf other than logon drive

I want to configure samba to produce a common area (i.e. /home/shared) as an assigned drive letter to all users. Thus, in addition to users logging into the domain and having an H: drive for their personal account, they will also get an S: drive (for example) for a common area. How do I configure this in smb.conf? Thanks. Scott

Hello all, New to Wine, not so new to Linux but still a newbie. I need to run my Goldmine software on my Ubuntu machine, so I need to mount the drive letter that I use on my workstation (windows) to the share on my Windows server so that Goldmine can see its database and license file. I tried pointing the drive letter to the path using SMB://server/share but that does not seem to work. Please

Hi, I have on the same domain a linux server runing samba as a PDC, and a 2000 server. I want the linux box being the boss. What do I have to do on the W2K box to avoid any interference. thanks in advance Philippe

Well it took forever (three days actually) to: 1) setup a working ldap server. Unix users now authenticate against the LDAP server perfectly. 2) Setup samba to use LDAP authentication. 3) Get the WindowsXP machines to become members of the domain. Everything seems to be working fine except for 1) roaming profiles, and 2) User's home directory (logon drive) doesn't get

OK, what I want to do is access files on my Samba server remotely. Currently, I can use WinSCP, but this isn't ideal because it is more like an FTP client, where you have to download a file, edit it, upload it. I could set up a VPN (using open source software), but these can be kind of a headache to get working (I've done it before) and they don't necessarily support multiple

I have had a problem with mkdiskimage for quite a while. It seems to always exit with the syntax messages. I'm not really familiar enough with Perl to figure out exactly what it's checking for there that it determines is incorrect, but, my guess would have to be that it doesn't like the letter. Eg, I think the last time it suceeded I was running it on sda, but, not I'm typically

In .wine/dosdevices I have links d: -> /some_path d:: -> /dev/some_device How can I get the device name (/dev/some_device) in a Wine program for drive (letter) D: ? Is there an API-Call?

Hey guys, I'm in kind of a crunch right now. Due to a poorly written script that I don't have control over, I need to be able to map a drive letter to a Samba share so that it works seamlessly with UNC (i.e \\server\Share <file:///\\server\Share> ). Basically, I need a way for a share name with a $ in it to be recognized as a valid network name. My current setup is like so:

Hello! I have been running rsync on some machines and rsync for NT on others. Recently, I discovered that on one of the NT machines we are getting this error: @ERROR: chdir failed rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (33 bytes read so far) rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(165) The module pathway has been moved to a new drive letter on the NT box due to a

We have this working. however Some developers edit files using "windows editors" and when they then copy them to the Windows Drive Letter which is mapped to a Unix machine, the resultant file is full of ^M characters..... build breaks..... and so on Until now we have been telling users to run "dos2unix" beforehand, but somebody told me that "Samba" can

Hi, I use Samba's root preexec funktionality to create dynamic logon scripts: root preexec = /usr/local/samba/install/bin/make_logon_script '%m' '%U' '%a' '%g' '%L Who do I check in the by make_logon_script generated logon .bat script, which is executed on the windows clients, if a drive letters is already occupied by novell. The logon.bat script should

Hi, I have a print server on ubuntu gutsy using samba and cups. all users are able to print from the server and their name appear into the logs (i am using phpprintanalyzer) if I try to print from another pc, it prints fine but then the name of the user is nobody instead how to make sure that the name of the user will be inscribed into the log when the user is on a remote machine. thanks

Hello. When using sftp under cygwin, a "cd d:" attempt to change to the d: drive, results in the following: sftp> cd d:/ Couldn't canonicalise: No such file or directory. It can only be done by using a cygdrive-type path: sftp> cd /cygdrive/d sftp> pwd Remote working directory: /cygdrive/d sftp> yet a local cd (lcd) works fine. "lcd d:" works, and then lpwd

Hi, I have configured a samba PDC with a logon script. The logon script includes dos commands to map a drive letter for different shares. One share has user home directory, one has common folder for all the users and other share is group share. For assigning a drive letter to group share I have used the command "net use g: \\%L\group\%G" but group share drive is not mounting for any of

Hi, Excuse in advance my poor english. After installing two new servers debian buster with samba 4.9.4 , one as AD ,the second as a fileserver, I was stuck when i tried to connect my users.

Good morning, I'm trying to write a function to assign the mean separation grouping letters to the factors of an experiment. A client wants this so I thought I'd write my own function for future use. But I'm having trouble doing it because I don't understand the logic of the assignment. As a general example, consider the following data and the results from SAS and its weak

Dear list, I have a vector of letter strings as follow: > LETTERS[c(1:7,9,15,18:25)]  [1] "A" "B" "C" "D" "E" "F" "G" "I" "O" "R" "S" "T" "U" "V" "W" "X" "Y"   I need to find sequences of length 11, which are made from  all
