Hi all, I have a problem while trying to migrate print services from a Win server to Samba 3.0.23c on an old FC 4 box. The Samba box is part of a AD domain, with spoolss enabled: <snip> security = ads domain master = no local master = no preferred master = no disable spoolss = no use client driver = no </snip> On the Linux box, I also have Cups 1.2.12 (self-compiled) running, with

Hello I've a samba printing problem: while all cups handled printers work perfectly, a fax printer application recently stopped working because of the default 'max print jobs' of 1000. In reality, the spool directory is empty. My question is: where ist this 'max print jobs' stored and how should it decrease or be decreased automatically or manually? Is there a way for the

I am currently using the Fedora Open directory with a posix structure user information to authenticate several hundred Mac users. Currently this is being done using the netatalk package for userId, UID, GID, password, home directory. What I am looking for is a way to move from netatalk to Samba without losing my LDAP capabilities. I have seen several post related to doing this but none

Suddenly in the past week we have been having users who share excel files via our Samba complain that the file has become corrupt, and also some database files (Orcad .tdb database files). Fortunately there has in each instance been a good copy in the .recycler... so far. I came across some docs and threads in the net about oplocks. I did find an error in the samba log: [2008/04/14 10:19:05,

Hi list, This is my first post and I hope I will not make people mad as this may have been answered before. Here it goes. I am running Samba for some years now (3 years) and had absolutely no problems. For the last month on one of the machines the NT ACL stopped working and everyone have full access everywhere even if they are not in the acl. If I try to add them and restrict them only to read

Hi, I got samba 3.0.26a on my Fedora 7, and when i try to add users with smbpasswd -a username, it only works if the user exists as a linux user... i got a Centos 4.4 system with samba 3.0.10 and it works even if the user doesn't exists on the system. Can anyone explain me why this happens? is it from this new version (3.0.26a) or may be a problem of Fedora 7?

Hi, does anybody know how to decode/recode sambaMungedDial attribute? I need to store the terminal server profile path in it but can not find any documentation. Thanks, Alex

I'm attempting to setup samba authentication via PAM and more specifically the pam_pwdfile module. So far I have had trouble determining the right mix of global settings to get this to work. I have read through many tutorials online, but so far I have not found good documentation on how to achieve this. What I am really attempting to do is unify the credentials for access to the

Hello, I have a working PDC with ldap-Backend under SUSE 10.2. Everything is working fine, except 2 thing: Can I change the sambaNTpassword and sambaLMpassword under Unix so that the User can change the samba-Passwords and the Unix-Password with one single command? Can I automaticly connect the Home-Networkshare to a Network-Drive? Without a Logon-Script? Regards Daniel __________

I'm having trouble wading through the various documents that only partially apply to my situation. I have an exsting LDAP instance providing NSS login data to my small group of linux machines. I want to also now provide domain logins against those user accounts. So far I have determined that I need to 1. add the samba schema to the directory 2. set the attribute access appropriately 3. add

Hi everyone! I'm trying to install a network printer (HP 2600n) in my primary domain controller(samba+ldap), and control the printer, create a list of users able to print and deny the others, etc. I've been searching about in Internet, but didn't find anything good to learn. Somebody could tell me if is it possible and where can I find some good material to study and do this using

I'm try to create a single sign on configuration for a home fileserver, storing user accounts in the directory and using those credentials to authenticate Linux shell logins, server applications and PDC logins. I have NSS working correctly and am trying to extend my LDAP schema to accommodate Samba. For the benefit of my own understanding, I'm trying to make the necessary changes to my

Hello listmates, I know this may sound stupid... but I am trying to set up a firewall/filter/forwarder using CentOS 5.5 machine as a platform and I am succeeding but only partially. Fro example, I am literally trying to forward HTTP and HTTPS (TCP 80 and 443) from the public interface to a private IP and TCP 80 works like a charm whereas TCP 443 seems to be a no-go. To that effect: does anyone

Hello all, I could not find anything in the discussion groups or documentation about using LDAP and Unix group mappings. The documentation states that in order to map unix groups to samba groups, you need to use the net group add command. However, I have an ldap backend and all my groups, that I care about are in LDAP. So I have a group called mainwdev. dn:

After I add them they are visible, but you can see I get this error - pdb_get_group_sid: Failed to find Unix account for test10 I believe that this has something to do with nss_ldap. because doing a getent passwd, it doesn't display any smb info.
