similar to: Samba 3.4.0 in Debian unstable

After several months of testing in the "experimental" branch of Debian, samba 3.2.0 was uploaded to Debian "unstable" as of July 20th 2008 and entered the "testing" branch of the distribution as of August 1st. As the "testing" branch is the future stable release of the Debian distribution, this means that Samba 3.2.0 will be in the upcoming release of

Hi, i visited wiki.samba.org and read the "Release Planning for Samba 3.2" information and the "Release Planning for Samba 3.3" information. So my question is: Is samba 3.2 development stopped and all concentration given to Samba 3.3 ? Because there isnt any further release note available for 3.2, but instead there are some notes for 3.3 ? Bye and thanks for your

In 1.6.0, when creating a MDT, you could specify multiple --mgsnode options and it would failover between them. 1.6.3 only seems to take the last one and --mgsnode=192.168.1.252 at o2ib:192.168.1.253 at o2ib doesn''t seem to failover to the other node. Any ideas how to get around this? Robert Robert LeBlanc College of Life Sciences Computer Support Brigham Young University leblanc at

(please note that this mail is crossposted to 3 lists. No need to CC me to answers, I read the 3 of them...) Some users (including me with my professionnal hat) want to use 3.5 versions of samba on production servers running Debian. Of course, most of the time, these production servers are running Debian lenny (the stable version of the distribution). Debian lenny ships with samba 3.2.5, so

I've looked around and can't find the answer. We have a Samba file server joined to our Active Directory and using ACLs. We are enforcing quotas on this machine, but when specifying the home directory, the directory is owned by the person who created it. Using Windows and going into the security permissions, there doesn't seem to be a way to remove the owning user/group. When you hit

I'm currently building a Samba3-based domain (DomA) that has a trust relationship with an existing production NT4 domain (DomB). DomA uses an LDAP backend. The LDAP server is local on the PDC and is dedicated to such use. DomA runs Samba 3.5.6 on Debian 6.0. DomB is an old-timer: NT4 domain that's running for ages. The trust relationship has been established: DomA trusts DomB. Clients

I was looking through the change log of 3.3.0 and noticed that a new idmap_hash was introduced that seems to play well with trusted domains. What means are available to convert all my rids to this new hash so I can update file permissions?

We have a user trying to share a OneNote 2007 notebook and it takes minutes to load a 20 KB notebook. I've opened a 500 KB Excel spreadsheet from the same share and it took seconds. Has anyone else run into this problem? We are running Samba 3.4.8 on Debian Squeeze. Thanks, Robert LeBlanc Life Sciences & Undergraduate Education Computer Support Brigham Young University

Hi all, According to this bug report: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=566977 This particular error is actually a bug in the samba code. Does anyone know if there are patches that fix this ? Adding "allow_weak_crypto = true" to /etc/krb5.conf does not solve this for me :( Has anyone got a working solution for this ? -Alex IMPORTANT: This email remains the

Hi all, I did upgrade from samba 3.0.28 to 3.4.1 on a domain member server. Now it seems there is a problem with reverse name resolving of winbind. The tools "ls" and "getfacl" shows UIDs instead of the usernames. When I run id "<username>" the username and the UID are shown correctly. After using "id" the name is also listed fine in the output of

Ok, I can't seem to search for the right thing to get what I need. I'm looking for a solution where if quota or some other mailing system needs to send an email to an Active Directory user, that it uses the email address listed in Active Directory for that user. We are connected to Active Directory using winbind, on one system we are using pam_winbind, on another we are not. Of course,

I'm trying to think about how to setup a Samba system and would like to pick the brains of some experts. We are looking up put a large amount of storage ~75TB in a central data center. We have some remote (ok, not remote, but across slower links, ok if you consider several hundred clients over 1Gb to be slow) locations that we would like to set up samba servers that 'cache' the file

Hi list members, i run a Debian etch system. I upgrade my samba to the sernet deb packages. All runs fine but i have a error message with SWAT.

The day after Karolin announced the release of 3.2.0-pre3, the Debian packaging team was able to upload .deb packages for it in Debian *experimental*. To use them, you need to already use Debian testing or unstable, then add this to /etc/apt/sources.list: deb http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian experimental main contrib non-free (replace "fr" by your favorite mirror country code) If you

Hello, I have enough details on how to have Linux users authenticate to a 2003r2 AD, but I need help getting their home dir's to automatically mount to a windows share. Any details would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks, James

I'm setting up a debian squeeze file server with NFS mounted home directories and authentication via ldap. Now I want to give Windows users access to those same home directories. I thought I'd try samba4. I figure I have nothing to lose since this is a virtual machine and if I don't like the results, I can just restore from a snapshot. Its not a production machine yet. I'd

Hi, I'm using a domain where the DNS is hosted by a couple of domain controllers on the network, outside of my control. I do have ability to work with group policy and active directory users and computers. I was able to join a samba/linux computer to the domain using 'net rpc join -S <IP of local DC/DNS server>'. This caused an entry for the computer to show up in Active

Hello samba gurus, I have a couple of questions regarding Linux file systems, and their ability to mimic NTFS, and the other question is regarding winbind and its uncanny ability to virtually lock up a samba AD member server once connectivity to the AD is lost. I apologize if anyone gets annoyed by this question. Environment: I am using samba 3.2 with XFS+ACL support joined as a AD domain member

Package: xen-api Version: N/A Severity: normal Dear Debian maintainer, Hello, I just noticed new or modified debconf templates appearing for this package.
