Hi there, I switched servers yesterday. The old server was running 2.2.7a-1 on RedHat 8.0. The new server is 3.0.8-0.pre1.3 on Fedora Core 3. I did the migration by copying the following: /etc/passwd /etc/group /etc/shadow /etc/samba/* I then copied /home and fixed all the permissions on stuff. I then started up samba on the new server, and unplugged the old one. Most everything went

Hello list last week we upgraded a 2.2 samba installation to the latest 3.024 release (with CUPS as printing backend). till now we granted some users the right to cancel printer queues from others with 'printer admin = printadmins' in smb.conf.

I've got a Fedora Core 2 box running Samba smbd version 3.0.7-2.FC2. I've set it up as a Domain master for a new domain. I setup a Win2K Server box and had it join the domain. I made an "administrator" user, I mapped the groups via: net groupmap modify ntgroup="Domain Admins" unixgroup=admins net groupmap modify ntgroup="Domain Users" unixgroup=users I

I'm running debian testing, so samba 3.05 atm. As of a few upgrades ago, which i think coincided with a library restructure or somewhat samba is no longer honouring read/write/admin lists on share definitions. Using the below share as an example, previously all users could access the share with read access, and those in the ntadmins group had write access. Since the upgrade users can only

Hye, we use a samba 2.2.3a which works fine most time. now i found that one client has some strange problems. when the user copies files to the smb-share some of them will be created with very strange filenames.

In version 2.x the global "domain admin users" could be used to give administrator privileges to a user/group. In version 3 i've some difficulties giving administrator privileges.

Dear all, When I create a share with the "admin users" permission (see smb.conf) and map a drive to it from win2k, it does not allow me to: Edit files Create files Remove files Add Directories Remove Directories Each time it gives me a permissions error.

Hi all, Just wondering what Samba administration tool is the most frequently used ? What tool do admins use daily ? I've tried Cmd line / Samba tools, Swat, Webmin, LAM... and still haven't found a full-featured one and *user-friendly* one... Many Thanks :) Ganael.

Hye every one, My question will certainly seem stupid as I am quite a beginner in R. I would like to trace a curve which fits these two vectors: x<-c( 2,3,4,5,6,7,8,10 ) y<-c( 20, 12, 8, 6, 5, 4.5, 4, 3.8) It seems to follow a non linear model. Could anyone help me because I could'nt find the answer I am looking for in the FAQs. In advance thank you for your time. G. Lefebvre

Hi, I've got an interesting problem with my Samba 3.0.2a on Debian Woody. I've created the Domain Admins group as I could read in the documentation, and I added a user to this group called "star".

Hi ! I'm using samba-3.0RC3 as a PDC (for testing). I'm using the ldap backend. I created 1 user, 1 computer and some groups. I mapped the unix groups domainadmins to "Domain admins" with my_personnal_sid-512. I added my user to domainadmins. I set "admin users = @domainadmins" in my smb.conf, but I still do not have domain admin rights on workstations :( Any idea
