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

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

As a way to try and avoid using "prefix = INBOX." ad infinitum for the inbox namespace, I'm looking for ways to move on to "prefix =" for new mail accounts, and grandfather the existing ones. Previously running Courier-IMAP, now Dovecot, I looked at https://wiki.dovecot.org/Namespaces#Backwards_Compatibility:_Courier_IMAP and decided it's too risky to go down that

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

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 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

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

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

Hi, We''ve an application that uses url_for in controllers and views. In views, url_for generates a relative url (as if :only_path where used). All is fine there. However, in controllers, url_for generates a full url, with the host name. This causes problems when we have a chain of Apache proxy servers: My Browser ---> Proxy 1 ----> Proxy 2 ----> Phusion Deployment Server. In

I''ve been using btrfs as a spool space on our back-up server to get familiar with it and things work fine until the volume fills up. Our backup software (bacula) usually spools until the volume is full, then despools and respools, etc. With btrfs, it fills up and bacula thinks there is still space so it keeps trying and then finally errors out. I thought this was a problem because I was

Is it possible for the uid/gid numbers that are generated by the idmap_rid and idmap_hash to collide if there are a large number of users or groups? I cannot seem to find any documentation on the limitations of these plugins. Before using I want to make absolutely sure that there won't be any collisions. In doing some research about Likewise Open, I see it's hashing routine can have

Hey list, I'm wondering if there is any advantage to be gained by using kerberos with pam_winbind. I've configured pam_winbind and enabled krb5_auth though apart from being granted a ticket, I'm unsure as to any advantage that would be gained by enabling Kerberos.

Hi All, I am using Samaba for my network users and I run out of space soon as so many users store BIG files on the share folders. Is there a way to specify the max size for a file that can be stored using Samaba? Or At least max size for a folder will also help. -- Thank you, Kani

Hi, I actually have to install another samba server connected to Active directory by using winbind. All works ok, but i have a little problem.
