Hi Thanks in advance. I know my question below is not really related with samba but I'm really confused, and you guys are expert on windows authentication, I really hope you have patience to read this and I'll appreciate any of your help. I learned a lot from this post http://lists.samba.org/archive/jcifs/2008-October/008227.html. I know that a "man in the middle" technique,

Hello Samba Team, Have a W2K8 not-R2 (NT6.0) server that compiles code served from a CentOS 5.6 server running Samba 3.5.5 over an Infiniband link. Works nice but an 'imake' step that grinds through every source file several times takes ten-to-twenty times longer than when it runs locally on the Linux side. It's apparent that the entire source tree is cached in memory by Linux, but

Hi there We've been merrily chugging away with a large number (>30) of samba-3.2.11 CentOS4.8 servers for some time now. Unfortunately in the past two months our AD team has started replacing our Win2K3 domain controllers with Win2K8 RODC (read-only DCs). As each site has been migrated over to RODCs, the Samba server associated with that site has started experiencing sporadic problems.

Hi. We are using samba4 as our production AD for a while in a mixed (XP, win2k3, win7, win2k8) environment. This post: http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba-technical/2011-February/076525.html mentions that to raise the functional level one should use this command: samba-tool domainl evel raise --domain=2008 --forest=2008 but in our current git version this command doesn't work due to the

I searched but was unable to locate a close match for this case. I doubt that Samba was the culprit here, but unus vir nullus vir. Your feedback would be appreciated. Situation: Windows clients, mostly WinXP desktops, got "no logon servers are available" when trying to access shared directories on fileservers. The Windows domain controllers run Win2k3. Member servers range from

Hi everyone, I have a licencing question : do one need to buy CAL for every user in a Samba4 domain when there is a Windows Server as a domain member, knowing that the Windows server will be accessed using SMB by Windows workstations? As per http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/using_samba/ch01.html and many other web sites, one of the main advantage of samba is that no user CALs are required. And I

I've attempted to create a Windows Server 2003 Native AD/Samba3 hybrid network (for curiosity's sake). Read extensively through all resources I could find and from what I can tell, I've set everything up as it should be. The Samba3 server properly authenticates to the Windows Server 2003 kdc, pull down users and groups via winbind, and is able to view the Win2K3 shares via smbclient.

Hi there I've got a problem CentOS-4.9 Samba server that we have never been able to join to an existing Win2K3/Win2K8 AD domain correctly. We have before and since installed Samba successfully on other sites btw. We actually have 55+ CentOs-4.9 Samba servers world-wide with identical configs - there's something about this one. Anyway, "net ads join -Uadmininstrator...." works

Hi folks, Does anyone have a clue of how to by/pass the group scope value when creating a group in AD by using the net tools? I can delete an AD group, add/remove members from a group but I can't create a group. I reckon it's because of the group scope value (even Power Shell/New-ADGroup prompts for it) $ net -U $ADMIN_USER -S $DC_ADDRESS rpc group add $GROUP_NAME -c $OU Error

I'm unable to have samba4 join an existing AD domain as either an RODC (preferrable) or merely a DC. AD domain is Win2k3, but we recently added a pair of Win2k8 DCs to it. Domain functional level is Win2k3. ### Adding samba4 as an RODC ### # samba-tool domain join -d5 my.domain RODC -U'adminuser at MY.DOMAIN' --server=nysv-vmdc3.my.domain INFO: Current debug levels: all: 5 tdb:

After upgrading Win7 and W2K8 R2 clients to service pack 1 it is no longer possible to log in to domain(before the upgrade the clients can log in into domain). Clean installation of Win7/W2K8 R2 with integrated sp1 has the same effect. Our domain PDC is running on samba 3.3.7. I'm curious if anyone else has seen this already. Thank you Mikhail Zuskov

Hi. I have some new 64bit Windows 2008 R2 domU''s running on SLES11/xen_3.4.2. What is everyone using to get 1gb network performance on win2k8? I''ve used GPLPV on win2k3, but I see you have to sign the drivers yourself for 64bit. Maybe that process isn''t difficult, I only glance at the link from gplpv''s page. What is everyone using? GPLPV is about the only

I''m experiencing a problem with XenEnterprise migration for a Windows 2008 server VM where a large % of the time I notice a 45-50 sec delay after the VM has been migrated to the other side. I''m wondering if anyone in this list is using XenEnterprise and has tried W2k8 migrations. Thanks in advance. W2K8 online migration delays guest execution 45-50 seconds Posted: Mar

Hello everybody, could samba (version 3 or 4) act as a "bdc" for an w2k8/r2 AD? There's one external office with a few users only, and there will be a samba-based system for file-storage - so if that system could also do the user-authentication for all users there it'd be nearly perfect ... Have a nice weekend! Torsten

Hello, I'm trying to connect my W2k8 (x64) Server farm to our new installed printserver based on debian lenny with sernet samba 3.5.4 installed. Everytime i try to connect to a printer share via point and print, it fails with error 0x000003e6. When i do the same from Windows XP or from our old w2k3 (x64) server farm everything works excellent. Does anybody know a workaround. I installed

Hello! We have a w2k8 R2 64-bit machine in a Samba 3.4.4 controlled domain. When logging in as a domain user there is a ~30 sec delay waiting for the User Profile Service. This has nothing to do with the size of the user profile. Looking at the network traffic I can see 2 gaps, the first about 11 sek and the second about 19 sek with no packets sent except one TCP ACK (from the client) in each

I've searched both the archives and dejanews, to no avail. I'm trying to get a hp 4mp (PostScript) print out sane output. I've got a old machine running Red Hat Linux, hooked up to the 4MP.

Hey guys! This is my first message to this list... I'm must say that I'm very impressed with Samba4! It is an amazing project! Nice job!! Last time I used Samba was back in 1998~2000... But, I got a new job that is forcing me to remove 3 Windows Servers with AD, by Samba4. So, I just deployed Samba4 on top of Ubuntu 14.04, it have Bind9, IPv6, a Secondary DC with replication, everything
