I would like to build it myself and gain some knowledge on the way. Greetings Marc --

I have been running a customized version Amahi for a couple years for my Samba server. It is time for an upgrade, and I will be moving away from Amahi, as they have abandoned Fedora for Ubuntu. Back when I selected Amahi to replace my 15 year old NT server, I looked around and only considered SME Server as an alternative, but they were still on Centos 4.7 with the Centos 5 based version

After years of delays and side trips, I really am going to dive in and build my own Samba server. And I have a few questions. All of my servers will be ARM. The main hardware will be Cubieboards (2 and truck). They will be running Centos-7 once the development is finished. For now I am using Fedora 22 arm. My backup file server will be a pogoplug (armv5) with Redsleeve 7.1. My current

I have set up a Samba PDC using the Amahi.org distro, so there might be some things they still have a bit off... Anyway, I have a somewhat old program, Quicken 2000. On my old Win2K workstation on an old NT server, it ran just fine for domain users. The software is installed on the workstation, and the data is on the server. But on my new XP Pro workstation on my new Samba PDC, it only runs

All, I've spent almost two months learning about setting up Samba and OpenLDAP for SSO. I was finally able to get it done (at least for Win XP Pro at this point) and I've compiled some notes on how I did it. The latest copy of my notes will be at the link below: http://bit.ly/smbldapsetup I've also discovered during my travels in Google-land that when you try a potentially useful

I had been running a samba server, the AMAHI F12 distro, that has samba 3.4.9. It ran well enough, but I was planning on replacing it with ClearOS. Well monday night I lost my server harddrive, so now it is crunch time to update/upgrade. I think I have ClearOS configured properly, it is running samba 3.6.10 (Redhat 6.4 based). So far I have tried to add two of my XP systems to the new

Hello, I noticed all my DC's have port 5353 closed. I'm using the internal DNS and wasn't sure if multicast DNS must be enabled? I do not appear to be having any DNS issues. My only concern is with the wiki on Multicast DNS. "By default, mDNS only and exclusively resolves host names ending with the |.local| top-level domain (TLD). This can cause problems if that domain

hi! does anyone has a good howto, docs how to set up an smtp, pop3, imap server, with webmail, and has anti virus solution, and even spam filtering? :D [plus secure connection for the clients :D ] wich softwares are the best for this? [e.g.: "vsftpd is the most secure ftp server"..] users would be from /etc/passwd [so not virtual users] thank you! p.s.: I've already googled :(

Hello, after two decades without a dedicated file server at home, it is about time to have Samba. While I am mainly a Linux guy there is a couple of systems that don't find rsync and sshfd adequate. We do have a handfull of standalone Windows 10 machines, a bunch of smartphones and a zoo of home entertainment appliances such as a TV, Sat receivers, IP radios/audio players. In addition to

My PDC is based on the Amahi server in PDC mode, running on Fedora 12. I got it working previously through a bit of trial and error, and then bug fixes to Amahi. Friday I lost my drive and did not have backups of my smb.conf, or my profile directories for my roaming profiles, or most of my data. I had a rsync kind or written, but had not croned it yet.... So the rebuild is well underway.

doing some googling, this seems to be about the most current/relevant thing I have found wrt to running freeipa server on CentOS http://howtoforge.com/how-to-build-rhel-ipa-rpms-for-centos-5 which I'm not totally adverse to doing but I have to ask, is there something packaged? (I've looked in 'testing' and in 'extras' and in epel) Has anyone followed some other

It seems that the nagios_service type will not write out the "name" property of nagios service objects. I had thought this was an oversight or a bug, till I saw this thread: http://www.mail-archive.com/puppet-bugs@googlegroups.com/msg10387.html which seems to imply that this is a deliberate "feature". Is this prohibition on "name" really the desired behaviour?

Hi, im trying to use our LDAP server as backend for Samba (PDC). I used smbldap-tools to transfer samba users to our LDAP server. Now i have ou=computers, ou=idmap, ou=smb-usr and ou=groups.
