Hi all. I am a total newbie at Samba. I am running Ubuntu 6.06 (Dapper) and have Samba 3.022 installed. I am trying to set it up as a Domain controller (to be a domain server that Windows machines can log into). So far, I can get it to do this, but only with the ROOT account. Any other account and it tells me that the user/password is incorrect or invalid. Below is my smb.conf file. In the

Hello, I've set up Samba 3.0.22 on an Ubuntu box for testing purposes. Below is my smb.conf file. The Samba server, ubuntu, is on the other side of a Linksys WRTP54G router, serving NAT to my Windows XP clients on the inside. I've opened port 139 on the router, set up NetBEUI, placed entries in the clients' hosts & lmhosts files. For some reason, the clients can logon to

I'm wondering if anyone has run across that and MUCH more importantly, if the data can be recovered somehow. I'll put as much details as I can at the bottom but here's the gist of the problem: I added my wives computer (which contains 8 years worth of pictures) to the domain. When I logged into the new domain account it was empty and my wives domain users had no access so I did the

Attachment is my own smb:conf, the same that's on air. [global] workgroup = NO1KNOWS netbios name = PBT ? ?server string = Samba %v, File

At one site I support, I have just recently put a policy file on their server to try and make some stuff easier to manage. Only problem is Windows is not even trying to load it. I watched the traffic in Wireshark, and there's no request for the ntconfig.pol file at all. And of course nothing from it is being applied. I had read that this can happen if someone has set the policy refresh

Hey guys, I'm trying to migrate my NT4 Domain and am having some problems. Ignoring my other post related to this, I can't get any of my machines to be able to login.

Hey all, I have a fileserver running Debian Etch and Samba 3.0.24 that I use to serve media and private home directories. I have a couple roommates, and therefore have a couple accounts on the box for those users. I had everything working perfectly until last week when my system drive took a crap.

In the computer manager event, I see authentication request but with empty usernames......so the PDC reject the authentication request. Is this a know

Hi, I am running Samba 3.0.1 on a Debian/Sid machine. I have installed winbind to access the AD of the local network, which I want to use for UNIX logons. wbinfo -u shows all the users of the AD, but "getent passwd" only shows the contents of the file /etc/passwd. I have been following the instruction for winbind (Chapter 21) in the Samba-HOWTO-Collection. Any comments would be

Hello! I tried to run a samba3 server as pdc for windowsXP clients with ldap backend and kerberos authentication. I stuck with these two possibilities: 1. Samba is pdc, winxp is domain-member, users are autheticated against smbpasswords within ldapsam.
