Enforce Strong Passwords LDAP PDC
I've scoured the mailing list archives and the internet...has anyone
actually figured out how to enforce strong passwords when using Samba
and LDAP as a PDC?
My users are allowed to change their Windows XP passwords, how do I
enforce the use of strong passwords (either locally or globally)?

Administrator is Root
I just got Samba + LDAP up and running as a PDC. If I list the users in
the LDAP directory with pdbedit -L I see:
root:0:test
nobody:99:nobody
aster$:1001:Computer
toast$:1002:TOAST$
fordprefect:1003:Test Account
Shouldn't there be an Administrator account and no root? I don't want my

Problems since upgrade from 3.0.23 to 3.0.25b
I have a working Samba PDC, I can log in and out from a windows xp

Can No Longer Join to Domain
I have Samba 3.0.24 running on CentOS 4 as a PDC with an LDAP backend.
When I first set everything up, I could join workstations to the domain
automatically with the Windows Network ID Wizard. Now when I try to
join a workstation I get:
Your computer could not be joined to the domain because the
following error has occurred:

SIP/WiFi handsets?
Anyone know of any *portable* SIP/WiFi handsets? Looking for a decent
price:quality ratio, of possible. Keep seeing handsets for Vonage, etc.,
in Best Buy and the like, but I imagine it's locked to Vonage, and can't
be re-appropriated.
Thanks!

Domain Member Server passdb Migration/Change
Hi,
We have a linux/samba only domain serving files to about 16-18 Windows
clients (mostly XP, a few W2K).
PDC:

Currently the Domain Member Server uses the default passdb backend
(/etc/samba/smbpasswd). Each user in the ldap directory on the PDC has a
duplicate entry in both the

Backup Domain not working
I recently set up a backup domain controller using Samba 3.0.23. I have
a Samba PDC already running, and all is working fine, but once I added
the BDC, now when people log in to their windows account, their home
directory is now being mapped to their home on the BDC (which is empty)
instead of the PDC. Conf files from each below:

Cannot change expired password
I have a samba PDC set up and configured. I have been doing tests and
everything was working fine. I was able to set "User must change
password" to today's date and it would prompt the user that their
password has expired when logging into windows xp. I could then enter a
new password and be on my way. Now when I set the password to "User must
change password", when I

Strange network file access behavior
I have a Samba PDC and a file server (domain member). They are both
running CentOS 4, with Samba3-3.0.24-30 and LDAP 2.3 (on PDC). Domain
authentication seems to be running fine and file access on the file
server works also. I have one share on the file server that gives me
trouble. Whenever I access files from this one directory, the network
seems to lock up for close to a minute. I get 64%

Strange Mail Problem
I submitted this question to the Postfix maillist and they suggested
that I post to this one.
Here's my issue:
I have a Postifx email system running on a CentOS 4 box, with Dovecot
pop3 and imap. Last week, one of my users reported to me that about a
dozen emails suddenly showed up in his in box (as unread messages), but
none of them were addressed to him. Under further investigation,

[Urgent] Cannot make changes via pdbedit
I have been having some problems since I updated from Samba 3.0.23 to
3.0.25b. I have installed the latest version of smbldap-tools but I am
still not able to make certain changes to a user's account. I have
created a new user named JROLFE.
After I set up a new user, I will set it so they are required to change
their password when they first login. I usually do this through LDAP

cpu load on centOS 4.4
Hello all,
I've installed samba on pretty basic install on centos 4.4. I'm running
a P4 2.8Ghz, 1G Ram, Raid 5 SATA-2 disks running on both a 3ware and
Highpoint Rocket raid (this is going to get swapped out for a 3ware card
soon). When users copy files from a mac os x client I'm seeing the cpu
load avg (in top) get up to 7. These copies included 150+Gigs of lots

roaming profile not uploaded correctly when logging out for the first time
I have a strange issue with roaming profiles.
It only happens for users which has no roaming profile on a Samba server
yet.
When a user logs out for the first time, some files can't be copied from:
C:\Documents and Settings\username\SendTo\
to a profiles directory on the server.
(Files like 31/2Floppy(A).lnk, some *.tmp files etc.).
Only very rarely, a first-time logout process happens

Samba 3 as PDC and hidden folders
I'm running Samba 3.0.10 as a PDC for Win XP Pro (SP2) workstations.
User Outlook .pst files on desktop machines are (obviously) very
important, and must be synced with server at logout for proper backup
(which occurs on server).
I've noticed that said Outlook .pst files are stored on the XP Pro
desktops in a folder called:

Is there a way to support both local and roaming profile with one server / domain?
Recent list messages got me thinking... Is there a way to support both local and roaming profile with one server / domain?
As I understand it, the "magic" line that tells Samba not to do roaming profiles is the smb.conf line:
logon path =
Which the line must exist, and must be set to null.
But that is in the global section. So is there a way to support both local and roaming...

Move local profile to domain profile.
Ok, I got the W2K3 resource kit tool to move my local profile to my domain
profile (moveuser.exe). Didn't really work that cleanly.
Even though I used the /k (keep the local account), it didn't really. It
seemed to change the permissions on MOST of the files.
It didn't really move the files either. It's just pointed my profile (or
parts of it) to the existing folder. Can't

Dual boot Win98 Centos sharing files
Greetings -
I have searched the mailing list archives and my Samba 3 book and have not
seen this issue addressed anywhere. My home desktop box has Win98 installed
on a 20 GB drive and Centos 4.4 on a 160 GB drive with a Grub menu for
selecting which OS to boot. I am wondering if it is theoretically possible
to share (read and write) files on the Linux drive when booted to Window,

Roaming Profiles won't save
Hello! I am migrating an old Red Hat Samba 3.0.9 server to a new Debian Etch
Samba 3.0.23d with an OpenLDAP backend. I've got almost everything working
with the new server except the roaming profiles. When a user logs off,
Windows complains that the permissions are not correct and the profile can't
be saved.
I would LOVE to get rid of roaming profiles but that isn't an option

Access denied-message when joining domain
Hello list.
I have Samba working as a PDC, but when I try to join from a XP computer I
get the message: "Access denied". The message appears right after I change
the domain name in the XP network settings and the login window pops up.
My smb.conf is:
[global]
workgroup = DOMAIN.NAME
server string = %h server (Samba, Ubuntu)
obey pam restrictions = Yes
