When I let yum install the latest samba updates, it ate my smb users file and smb.conf. Once I restored those, it gave me several selinux avc denials, one of which I can't clear up. See http://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=2965 for details. Anyone else having problems like this? Dave

First, let me apologize if this is a simple question, I am trying to get away from Microsoft and learn Linux. In the past, on my Linux test server I have installed samba 2.2.3a and a seperate install of winbind for that same version. I followed the directions I've seen posted and it all works well.

I have a network where we have a main site with a PDC, and two remote sites with BDCs. The backend is LDAP which is slaved to the remote sites, Samba is 2.2.8a, the main server is part of the Suse Linux OpeneXchange Server, the other two servers are Suse Standard Server 8. What I wanted to do was to have users at the various sites map one drive from their 'local' server. Behind the

Hello, We have recently upgraded to samba 3.0.10 (RedHat 7.3) and are now having authentication delays with some of our shares. We are using unencrypted passwords so we can use the pam system-auth...we have the plaintext registry patch on all windows machines that are connecting. The problem is that if you manually connect or browse to a share from a windows box (2k or XP), the client sends your

Has anyone been able to get a zip drive working with samba? I want to set up a systsem where the drive gets mounted, in a letter like F: and students can pop in and out zip disks without having to deal with any unix interfaces. Any idea?

Hi Samba team, Is there a command or a way to build samba-debuginfo rpm from the samba source. I have been through wiki.samba.org, but failed to find out.

Hi, I have a Debian stable (woody aka 3.0) machine. I am moving my existing samba 2.x installation (that has users stored in smbpasswd) to samba 3.0.4 with LDAP as the backend. I am able to move the users to LDAP just fine. However, the password policy of bad lockout attempt does not seem to work. I installed the samba deb file from the samab.org site.

Hi folks, I have got a Samba PDC with roaming profiles: CentOS 7 x64, build 1511 The server is set up with roaming profiles according to the current Samba Wiki. Roaming works, but the permissions in the profiles are too wide, giving access not only to the user in every profile, but also to the group (770). For example, if I log in under Windows, add a file (or folder) on my desktop, and log

I have set up a Samba PDC with LDAP password backend schema. I found the way of connecting win2k workstations to this Samba server by setting the parameter "workgroup" (in smb.conf) to the name of the domain I created previously in Samba/LDAP. Once in win2k workstations, I changed the identification from workgroup members to domain. But when validating, it asked for any user who

Dear group, I know this is not the first post related to NT domain authentication with Samba. I actually did manage to set up NT domain authentication on a FreeBSD 5.4 using Samaba 3.0.12 based on infos I mostly found here. I'm stuck however to get the same thing working on a FreeBSD 4.11. The steps I've tried to follow are described in the Samba Howto. Configured/compiled Samaba 3.0.20b

Hi, when saving a file to this share the permissions (0777) are being ignored under OS X 10.11.5. All files will get these permissions: 0755. I don't know why?

I have a network of Windows XP desktops, and a Samba PDC server, in an ideal world i'd like to have single installations of applications on a samba shared device, and also if possible a default start menu profile with the applications already added... is such a setup possible?

Hi, as windbind is not supported on FreeBSD I hope to get some hints how to solve the following issues: I want to setup a samba (2.2.2) fileserver that just contains the home-directories for all users of a Win-NT 4.0 Domain. - How can I use the PDC for authentication instead of smbpasswd? - I am looking for an easy way to auto-genarate a home-dir each time a new Domain-user is created via the
