Hello, I have two Samba 3.0.22 PDCs and each trust each other. When I add an user of each domain to the permissions of a file on a windows machine (W2k, WXP), it shows for them DOMAIN\USERNAME.

This happens on clients

Hello, I have two Samba Domains and each trust each other (PDCs run 3.0.22). Also I have a samba member server (3.0.24) that runs winbind. When I use wbinfo I can see the user and groups of both domains. I also can chown/chgrp files with users of the domain the server is member of. But I can`t chown/chgrp with accounts of the trusted domain. chown doesn`t work at all. chgrp works, but then only

Greetings, I run an automated process from cron that uploads a large file from my HP/UX server to a PC running Windows 2000 weekly. The process began to fail once the size of the uploaded file gre to over 2GB in size. I've upgraded the Samba 2.2 installation to Samba 3.0.10 but that hasn't fixed the problem. We are running NTFS filesystems on the Windows server. From what I

Hi folks, I'm sure this will be a lame question for you all, but I am not a seasoned Samba admin and the folks I know with more Samba experience than I don't have a solution for me, either. I need to map a large number of domain users to a single unix account. I understand there is a 1024 character limit on lines in smbusers and I'm hitting it. Is there any way around this limit?

I have a Samba server with Windows XP clients, and roaming profiles for every user. At this moment everyone can log onto any workstation, but it shouldn't be like that: there are some workstations where anyone can log into, but three of them should be restricted to some specific users.

Hiya, I'm trying to set up a Samba PDC with an LDAP backend. I experienced problems joining machines to domains, the machine account was created, but Windows said user name cannot be found. I resolved this by adding ldap to /etc/nsswitch.conf, but this has the side effect of allowing ldap users to login to the server via SSH. Whilst I can understand the need for LDAP users to be accessible
