Hi, I am running Samba 3.0.1 on a Debian/Sid machine. I have installed winbind to access the AD of the local network, which I want to use for UNIX logons. wbinfo -u shows all the users of the AD, but "getent passwd" only shows the contents of the file /etc/passwd. I have been following the instruction for winbind (Chapter 21) in the Samba-HOWTO-Collection. Any comments would be

Hello, I am running Samba 2.2.3a-6 on a Debian(testing) machine. It is running as a PDC for 15 Win2K(SP2/3) systems. Everything runs beautifully except the users cannot change their passwds.

In the computer manager event, I see authentication request but with empty usernames......so the PDC reject the authentication request. Is this a know

Hello, Just wondering what I should be using for the password change program on a BDC.

I've been running the same configuration for a couple of years now, and since I've upgraded to Office 2007, MS Word and MS Excel files save to my samba shares as -r-------- even when they are opened as being chmod 777.

Dear samba-users We are experiencing some rather long logon times using SAMBA 3.5.6 on Debian Squeeze + Windows 7 and while trying to find out why we raised the loglevel to 5 resulting in a rather large logfile.
