Hello, Samba refuses to be browseable. I started out wanting to configure it as a PDC, just as I have done previously with samba 2.2.8 (and openldap). smbclient -L localhost -U% gives "Error returning browse list: NT_STATUS_NETWORK_ACCESS_DENIED". Using debian 3.0r1, samba 3.0.0, openldap with nsswitch, etc. I am a newbie at looking at the logs, I see the access denied

Hi all, I'am trying to set up my Samba server to use DOMAIN auth. I followed the instructions in the "security = domain in Samba 2.x" and had good results. Used this command to join the domain "smbpasswd -j DOM -r DOMPDC -UAdministrator%password" and I got the result "smbpasswd: Joined domain DOM." I added the entries into the configuration file to complete

Hi list, sorry in case I do ask a FAQ, but I did in fact find some more mentions of a problem like this, but always without a solution. I upgraded our Samba server today (from 2.10/SuSE to 3.0x/Debian) and have problems with some of the clients (Windows XP). When trying to access a share from these clients, I get a NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE, and increasing the log level reveals several occurences

For a few weeks now we have been trying to research why our domain will not authenticate when we are logging in. The Samba logs indicate that our computers properly add into the domain, however after rebooting and attempting to log in we recieve an error message stating that our computer account is not in the domain. After reading the logs we have realized that Samba is indeed recieving and

I have installed samba 2.2.7 on freebsd from the ports collections. I had a previous installation of samba 2.0 and I used my old smb.conf file to duplicate the funcationality I had. Trouble is, printing from winNT/2K clients doesn't work. Printing from win9x machines still does. I've been through the docs on samba.org and looked in chap6 of HOWTO collection on printing and the

Hello experts, I?ll try and keep this brief but detailed (if that?s possible.). I?m sure I don?t understand the technologies sufficiently but I believe I?m seeing counter-intuitive behavior with my Samba 3 setup. What I want is nice, tight Win 2K3 security. What I?ve got is ADS integration, including domain user authentication using winbind, but I can?t get the security level right. Problem

Hi, I have a problem with Samba 3.0.4 and DOS 6.2.2. Our clientinstallation works with PXE. This setup connects the samba-server with a DOS 6.2.2 batch-script, which attempts to copy a text-file from the client to the installation-share. I have interrupted the script and attempted to do the copy manually. Error-message: File not found. "copy a:\hwinfo.txt w:\$BmNewPc.Dir\05100be5.chi"

I have been having a problem that has had me scratching my head for the last week and a half. I have searched with google, read the 13th hour troubleshooting guide (stopped when it got to the sniffer diagnostics), and have even upgraded samba to 3.0.0. I will post a description followed by a level 4 debug log file. When a user opens the "Public" share they can browse the share without

Hi all, recently I asked for help with a problem Samba had to write files (http://lists.samba.org/pipermail/samba/2002-November/085003.html, http://lists.samba.org/pipermail/samba/2002-November/085083.html). Since that hasn't solved, and since it occurs regardless of changes of the smb.conf, I'd like to post some passages of the smb log file (log level 4) of the attempt to copy a file to

Hi all, Using Samba 3.0.0beta3 on FreeBSD 4.9 and a WinXP SP1 client. I was able to join the domain with the WinXP machine, but I cannot log-on.
