Hi all, I've compiled samba 4 from branches and it worked like a charm. I'm trying to use regshell to read (remotely) the following Windows registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall I can connect to the remote machine with no problems: ./regshell --remote=192.168.50.142 --user=Administrador%xxx HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT> HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT>

Due to a up-tick in the amount of SPAM my account has been receiving, I googled my e-mail address, and discovered that my e-mail address, along with the e-mail addresses of many subscribers to the SAMBA mailing list (samba at lists.samba.org) are being published in a harvestable form on your website. Specifically, this page: http://omgili.com/usrmgr.exe-, although there may be more instances.

Is it meanwhile save to use samba over the Internet without using VPN ?

I recently setup a new server with CentOS 5.2. Everything works great on the server except when I try to join the domain it simply tells me: "The following error occurred attempting to join the domain "Domain": The user name could not be found. I have researched this error and attempted a number of fixes but have been unable to resolve the issue. I am able to connect to

Some default setting have changed. Use: testparm -v from your various versions of samba to detect which parameters may be causing you issues. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Tony Hoover, Network Administrator KSU - Salina, College of Technology and Aviation (785) 826-2660 "Don't Blend in..."

Hello list, Is it possible to implement machine policies with Samba-3.0.x? Is so, how? I'm asking because I need to update registry settings and tz info for the computers on the domain, but the logon script is executed by the user (which doesn't have privileges to modify the registry entries nor date/time/tz configuration.) Many thanks in advance, Norberto

Hi I'm trying to get my samba file server to authenticate against my windows 2008 active directory server , so that there is a unified log in and if anyone logs onto the box the they are authenticated against the a server and there account is created. I'm battling to get my samba server server to join the domain .. I can get any further than this [root@technical-vmlab ~]# kinit

All, Looks like I'm in a predicament. One of our new sites will prompt users (in IE) to display "mixed content". Which is basically asking if you want to display some http in a https site. I have found the solution, (besides having a user go into IE's tools / privacy / custom settings / enable mix content) - with a registry entry. However, the registry entry goes to:

We recently ran into a similar issue. If you have any microsoft "Live" components installed on your 7 box, samba servers must be contacted by numeric IP address rather than netbios (or even IP mnemonic) name. http://www.sevenforums.com/network-sharing/8303-cant-connect-samba-share-via -name-ip-works.html ---------------------------------------------- Tony Hoover, Network

When I upgrade a major revision (3.4.x -> 3.5.x ), I always get a listing from "testparm -v" before and after the upgrade to make sure that a parameter (that I didn't specify in the config) didn't change it's default setting. ---------------------------------------------- Tony Hoover, Network Administrator KSU - Salina, College of Technology and Aviation (785) 826-2660

Hi all, I am currently fighting with roaming user profiles which shall be stored on an Ubuntu 8.04 Xeon (64 bit) box. I'm running the stock Ubuntu packages (version 3.0.28a-1ubuntu4.4). The Ubuntu box runs as PDC with a LDAP backend. Adding a Win 2000 SP4 workstation to the domain works flawlessly. If I log on on the workstation with a root-like account (UNIX user id 0, UNIX

But today samba server performance badly, even sometime mapped drive on xp disappear. When i tried to connect samba shares, error appear server not available.

Samba 3.5.6 I must be really misunderstanding 'log level' somehow. I have tried all of the following and cannot get my logs to show anything related to authentication or share accesses at all: log level = 20 log level = all:20 log lovel = 3 auth:20 If I access one of the server's shares successfully, not a single thing shows up in the log. Yes, I am looking at the

Dear Samba Community, Because Apple has transitioned away from the open-source SAMBA protocol for their new 10.7 release of Mac OS X, I was wondering if there is a third-party solution to fill this void. Because OS X is based on Darwin, and Darwin is an open-source "free" version of UNIX, I thought there might be a solution with an Aqua front-end that would make it easier for Mac

Hi, I'm going to migrate from SAMBA 3.2 to 3.5 (Debian Lenny -> Squeeze). The server is an AD member and uses ACLs. Are there any preliminary steps to make the upgrade as smooth as possible? What kind of problems could I expect? Best Regards, Christian -- __________________________________________ Christian Reischl Fraunhofer Institut f?r Verfahrenstechnik und Verpackung Giggenhauser

Greetings, My odd question for the week - I've been unable to figure out if/how to do this. Given an Active Directory user ID, is there a way to get the user's real name? During testing of our Samba AD member servers I have seen user's given names appearing in the log files - is there a way that I can pull that for my own use? Our site uses loginIDs for users that give no clue

Hi, I have a samba share on centos5 that uses AD authentication. I can do wbinfo -u and it returns the AD users.. but getent only returns the local centos users. Any pointers on where i have gone wrong? I am trying to chown to an AD user/group, but it is now working.. is the format chown domain\user:domain\group path/to/file ? Thanks..

We use pGINA (www.pgina.org) to authenticate windows user logins via ldaps:// against the university directory.

Hello samba, I would like to ask about what is the most common and less effort way to let users change time without admin privileges on windows workstations. To be exact I'm trying to find out the quick and dirty way to sync time between win workstations (xp and vista) and PDC Samba 3.3.2. I do use net logon scripts and it is failing on net time \\pdc-server /set /yes command because of

Hello everyone, I've got a Xerox Work Centre 5735 that I'm printing to via Samba. When I install the drivers on a client (using the right-click-Connect method) from the samba shared printer then the install goes smoothly but I can't load the Printing Preferences dialogue for that printer, I get an "Operation could not be completed" error. This same error does not occur
