similar to: join linux client to samba domain

i'm not sure how to create different logon scripts for different users. right now i have one logon script called 'logon.bat' that maps all users to a server share and syncs the time with the server. i need to be able to map different users to different server shares. not all users should be mapped to all server shares. these should be automatic mappings. for example: user1 should

maybe this is a simple fix but i really don't know how to fix it... it seems that i cannot run any net rpc commands... i wanted to see the members of Domain Users group so i did the following: root# net rpc group members "Domain Users" -Uroot%not24get and i got this error: Could not connect to server 127.0.0.1 Connection failed: NT_STATUS_CONNECTION_REFUSED i can ping localhost

this may sound like a basic question but i'm not entirely sure how roaming profiles work so i'm not sure if i have it working properly. i created a local user account on a client machine and then joined that machine to the domain. i then logged in as domain administrator and copied the user profile from the local machine to the server. if i login with this user account (now the domain

os: debian etch 4.0 samba: 3.025c i am reading through the how-to (using samba 3rd ed), freely available btw at http://book.opensourceproject.org.cn/sysadmin/samba/sambao3rd/ i am interested in setting up a samba pdc for a good dozen windows xp pro clients. (i somehow could not wake up from the windows 2003 sbs nightmare). i have been able to join my debian box to the local windows domain and

section 13.3.2 of the HOWTO shows that i can add a user to a group with the following command: root# net rpc group addmem "MIDEARTH\Engineers" ajt -Uroot when i execute this command (replaced with my server specific values, of course), i get a NT_STATUS_NO_SUCH_USER error. i can verify that my user DOES exist and that he belongs to the posix group account. i can also verify that the

i'm reading through the samba howto. section 6.2.3 (page 105) shows the add machine script as follows: add machine script = /usr/sbin/useradd -d /var/lib/nobody -g 100 -s /bin/false -M %u i have a problem with the -M option. i cannot find this option in useradd's man page. can i assume this example is incorrect?? what would be a correct example???

Hello, Yesterday, users started to logon (Windows XP) without having their home directories mapped through netlogon (net use i: \\server\share), even though they can access the share as \\server\share in Explorer. The home shares have permissions 700. I couldn't find anything unusual, except for this (/var/log/samba/log.smbd): [2006/10/31 20:14:05, 0] smbd/service.c:make_connection(846)

I've been running a samba 3.0.28a PDC with XP clients for a while now. The setup has been working flawlessly. I'm considering upgrading some of the clients to Vista. Are there any known issues to Vista using this version of Samba that I should know about. I all need to do is join the Samba domain and connect to a few network shares.

I'm currently running samba as a primary domain controller on Ubuntu 8.04. I am going to do a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.04 onto a new hard drive and install that distribution's samba package. This will replace my current installation. I don't plan on changing the configuration file (smb.conf). The configuration file from my current samba installation will be copied to the new

Hi! I have 8 subnets: 192.168.100.x/24 192.168.150.y/24 192.168.200.z/16 etc ...

The network is correctly configured, that is, the teams are perfectly by "ping" and the open ports between the networks see no problems. Notes: - I disabled the

How long does one have to typically wait for an answer to a post? Tomorrow my message will have been up a week, and I've gotten no replies. It was about whether a file, while it was being written to, could subsequently be opened by another client for reading. I used a DVR with chasing play as an example. Didn't seem like that difficult of a question, but maybe it isn't geeky

the reason why the wallpaper was not following the roaming profile is because i was not using bitmaps... check out this post: http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2005-November/114588.html i am also quoting the last sentence on this web page: http://computertips.toups.info/roaming/RoamingXPPro.htm "There appears to be a problem where .jpg wallpaper does not appear to roam properly.

We're using Samba 3.0.21a-1 on a CentOS 4.2 server (kernel 2.6.9-22.0.2.ELsmp); everything works more or less fine, it's functioning as the PDC with an OpenLDAP back end (setup essentially straight from the Idealx.org playbook), etc. We're trying to mount Windows shares to back them up, and getting "permission denied" errors when trying to read certain files from those

I'm running Samba 3.4.7 on Ubuntu 10.04. This is a recent upgrade and we've starting experience a sporadic problem after this upgrade. When users are browsing through Windows Explorer they sometimes run across folders that appear as unassociated files. This requires the user to click the 'Refresh' button in Windows Explorer to properly see the folders. The files and folders are

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, There was a new Python setuptools release (36.0.0) today, that caused this compatibility issue. The suggestion to stop breaking the builds is to add a static setuptools version on lnt's requirements.client.txt. The latest known compatible version is 35.0.2. I have tested it building a LNT sandbox and it seems to works. setuptools==35.0.2 I'll create a bug on LNT so we can
