We are using roaming profiles. I have a user that logs onto two computers that are in different buildings. Computer 1 is collections w/ default printer HP Laserjet 4000DTN (10.8.9.223) and Computer 2 is salesshop w/ default printer HP Laserjet 4100DTN (10.8.3.31). The user complains that when she logs into salesshop, does her work, logs out, and then logs in at the collections computer,

I have compiled Samba 3.0.25a from source on a Solaris 10 machine. I had previously been testing Samba 3.0.24 (from packages on www.sunfreeware.com) and have reused the smb.conf file. Otherwise this is a clean setup, not an upgrade. The server is configured as a PDC for my domain "SAMBADOMAIN" I created a samba password for the local root and administrator accounts. I joined the

Hello, Do you have tips or sample script code to deploy MSI (Firefox in my case) using script ? I miss my gpo software installation from Win2k/2003 :) Thanks !

I run samba-3 as PDC for a small domain with 4 clients. User A should be allowed to login on all client machines, while logins for the privileged user B should be restricted to 2 machines for security reasons. Any ideas how to manage that? Suggestions for further reading would be highly appreciated? Hans Musil

Hello all, We are trying to find a way to run login scripts for our users but all the How-To files seem rather complicated :-( We have been using Samba for several years and all our users have Windows 2000 PCs, Samba accounts etc. They log into their Windows with a username/password OK. The Samba server is set up with the same username/password combination as their PCs so they don't have

People who have reported this bug (Endless Password Expiration in 3.0.25, bugzilla id #4630) can you please let me know if you're working on 64-bit machines please ? I'm trying to track this down for 3.0.25a and am working on a theory.... Jeremy.

I saw Active Directory a bit today and was impressed with the ease one can manage many Windows workstations with that. Especially I liked the software installation (too bad it can install MSI packages only) and the ability to run custom scripts on the workstations (when the boot up etc.). Is it possible to run a custom script for a given machine when it boots up (that is already joined to

Hello, I sent this request to my local linux user group: <http://lists.luv.asn.au/wws/arc/luv-talk/2008-02/msg00000.html> Unfortunately it looks like nobody is able to answer, so I will try here: Does anybody know of any sane solution for (globally) managing the configuration of printers on a large number of Windows computers?

Hi all, I've managed to install an ubuntu server as PDC, everything is working fine. However, i've got a few questions regarding profile ( M$ XP ) and unix accounts. 1. Roaming profile : I believed that when logging off a computer, user's profile was moved back to the server. But i can still find one. Is there anything to do for the profile not to be stored on pc ? 2. An account

Hi, I have upgraded to Samba 3.5.6 for Windows 7 Pro compatibility. I am in a test phase to evaluate the behavior of Windows 7 in a Samba PDC environment. I have one Samba server as a PDC with tdbsam backend (no LDAP at all), and I applied the reg and patch as described in the wiki. I have a couple of questions related to Windows 7 : - opening a domain session on the Win7 client takes a

I've been very frustrated with getting XP to connect to samba. I added a machine account on Linux useradd -g workstation -d /dev/null -s /bin/false xpmachine$ then pdbedit -a -m -u xpmachine on XP i change the name to xpmachine and connect as root. I'm welcomed into my domain as expected When I reboot I cannot login because my account isn't recognized although I can login as

Am in testing phase with just a few lucky users to go live with samba. However, I just had a thought. What happens when we eventually do vista? Seems like I may need to add %a to my path = statement, but it did not work. No profile was created for the user under the "windows version" directory.. Here's my testing smb.conf. Please have a look and see what I may need to do to

Hi all, I've got some problems with vista sp1 + samba 3.0.28a vista will not save the profiles nor load them. ! I'm all familiar with the .V2 thing. vista however does create the "profilename.V2" directory, but does not populate it with the data Xp machines work like a charm however. profiles path's are: \\<server>\profiles\testuser so the problem with the .V2 part is
