I've got a very simple setup with Samba 3.0.24 running on Fedora Core 6, talking to Fedora Directory Server 1.0.4. I've got everything set up so that I can add computers to the domain, add users using the smbldap- tools, and have users logging in.

Hello, I've been trying to get part of a disk visible from a HP J5600 Unix machine (hostname = oed209, IP = 192.168.33.209) running HP-UX 10.26 and Samba v1.9.18p7 to a MicronPC XKE Laptop (hostname = oed123, IP = 192.168.33.123) running W98SE. Net masks on both machines are set to 255.255.255.0. Neither machine uses DHCP. Hostnames, their aliases, and their IP addresses are defined on both

Hi, I'm running into weird problems after switching from tdbsam to ldapsam user backend. I have transferred all local unix and samba groups with the sambaldap-tools scripts. The 'net groupmap list' command prints all group mappings correctly, and I also can use all the groups present in LDAP for setting local file ownerships. However these groups don't appear in the windows

Hello experts, I've migrated our NT4 domain to sambe 3.0.20b/ldap backend with "net rpc vampire", and nearly everything works as expected. But one big problem remains: it's not possible to login to the domains member maschines now, because "the domain is not available at the moment" (translated from german). After the maschine rejoined the samba domain, login

I can't get smbldap-useradd to add the sambaSamAccount workstation attributes.

Hi, Trying to be simple and direct. My last email didn't get answers. Thank you and best regards. Problem: ----------- W2K workstations remains connected do samba server at port 139, even after logoff, and this causes: false wtmp information and no possibility do control (even no fail proof) simultaneous logins. Workaround ( not acceptable )

Hi, guys, I'm trying to create a PDC using Samba with an LDAP backend. According to all the guides I read, this should be fairly easy really, but I've done nothing else for the last week and it still doesn't work the way the manual says it should! As far as I can see, everything is set up and working correctly right up to the point when I try and join a machine to the domain.

Hi again, all: I followed Adam's advice and investigated the transmission of broadcast packets to the Samba PDC. Using a packet injector, tcpdump and Ethereal, I was able to determine that broadcasts are both going out onto the network and being received at the PDC, in both UDP and TCP formats. Again, using this configuration [global] domain master = yes local master = yes preferred master

Hi everybody, I have a Samba 3.0.4 PDC configured on my network. Previously, there was a Windows NT 4 PDC, that was migrated to my Samba / OpenLDAP configuration. Everything is working fine, except our ISA Server. Indeed, ISA Server was previously configured to let users that belong to the "Internet Access" group to surf. During the migration phase, we did not change anything.
