Hello, I've got some problems with a Samba Server. The Samba Server is member in an Active-Directory Domain (Win2000), it is NOT the domaincontroller. Authentication is kerberos-based (smb.conf: securty=ADS, winbind). The Sambaserver is accessed by Windows-Clients, that are domainmembers and by some Windows-Client, that are not. Originally Users, who were logged on the domain could access

Howdy All, I have read with interest the problems that some people have with profiles and XP ( service pack 2 included ) in getting them to work. I, however, have not had any such trauma's ( thank goodness) and the smb.conf file listed below works a treat. The problem I have is people using profiles over several vpn connections ( just to slow ). So now I am in the situation of wanting to turn

Hi there, Currently Samba 3.20.b (SLES 9.3) is running in a standalone server in AMD64 platform. Users from Windows platform can create/delete NFS files without logging into the Samba server, username exist in the sambaserver but no password is required to map a share e.g. \\sambaserver\sharename.

Hello, I found another strange problem while migrating from 3.0.22 to 3.0.23x (with 'x' eq 'd' now): I can't access my [homes]-share anymore - if i try, the samba-server prompts me for a password. What *is* working is accessing the same directory as [<username>]... E.g.: \\Sambaserver\matthias works whereas \\Sambaserver\homes works *not* Unfortunaely it

Hello Louis, In fact, the shares mentioned in my original messages are used in Windows-only. The accounts, however, are used in both Windows and Unix-type environments (we have quite a zoo of OSes in active use); so we actually use the Posix part of accounts for attributes and Kerberos component to authenticate in all non-Windows use. So my primary intent is to make the homes/profiles shares

Dear all, ___Setup: - several wINDOWS 2000 workstations on SP4 (reg-patches applied, they worked on 2.x-stable) - Samba PDC (CVS 3.0.0rc2) (machine accounts added aswell as users in unix & samba) - OpenLDAP (2.1.12) <-- (Not really relevant since I tried without ldap too, so no info about that from this point) - Linux <HOSTNAME> 2.4.19 #1 Fri Jun 13 15:22:09 UTC 2003 i686

Hai, Sorry to say but.. > The solution (following the default how-to directories structure): No, the solution is to setup correctly. Just do a a small test here to see if its all correct. With a windows computer, browse to \\server Right klik the profiles share, check security. If this is set correct, the user should not be able to see the rights. Repaet, now as Adminsitrator.

But some apps used from the samba server share, apparently need to the user in the station have admin privileges.

Dear Samba gurus, I have a Fedora 8 linux server, running samba 3.0.28a-0.fc8. I am doing the simplest thing of all - exposing a public read-only share within MS Workgroup environment.

Hello, I am running Suse Linux Enterprise Server 9, and I am trying to get Samba to authenticate using LDAP. I am using the YaST system tool to configure the LDAP server, LDAP client, and SAMBA. The issue I am having is that after I configure the Samba server to use the LDAP backend it prompts me for a password creation for the root user. This root user will be added to the LDAP

The older installation's samba configs were backed up and restored after installation. The Samba shares are accessible if I access them from a Windows 7 client. The shares, however, cannot be accessed from a Debian client (newly installed amd64 Testing).

Hi all, We have a mixed network environment with Samba servers providing file storage for windows, Linux and MAC 0SX users. Authentication is handled by Active Directory on Win2K SP. On our campus we allow computer lab teachers to add users via the Active Directory MMC. However we have a couple of issues which make this far from seamless: After users are added to AD, the lab admin will add a
