Do these programs still exist? They don't seem to be part of the samba3x package on RHEL5.

There has been a low continuing level of confusion over the terms "Source NAT" (SNAT) and "Static NAT". To avoid future confusion, all instances of "Static NAT" have been replaced with "One-to-one NAT" on the web site and in the CVS configuration files (Shorewall/ project). The documentation in 1.4.9 will also contain this change. -Tom -- Tom Eastep \

This is some ramblings on why using proxy ARP (on a host in a DMZ) is a good or bad thing. The good is that a computer X retains a public IP address which makes it easy to connect it directly to the net if the firewall has to be taken down for extended periods. Thus, if computer X is a mail server for example, it can still function in a reduced capacity until the firewall is restored. The bad

On the firewall, what is the rationale for giving eth1 an IP address that is also assigned eto eth0? (Rather than a private one.) -- Taso Hatzi caesar 17 <<-salad cjbx jc vdwwjar jc xi jc jd salad

The problem scenario I describe was reported previously in the Shorewall lists but its resolution does not seem to have made it into the lists. Scenario: Windows XP client seeking to establish a VPN connection to a Windows 2003 Server located behind a Shorewall firewall (running on Mandrake kernel 2.4.22-37mdk). The connection cannot be made, the client reports error code 721. Discussion:

Hi, especially John H. T :) I'm yet again plodding through chapter 14 of the Samba-HOWTO-Collection.pdf. Not because I can't make what's in it work for me, I did that long ago, I found out for myself, because a great deal of what's in it is wrong. I just got fed up with trying to get Nagios to work - I gave up, for various reasons and started on the Samba doco. At the risk of

Is there a trick to being able to access shares via \\domain\dfsroot\.. rather than \\computer\dfsroot\... ? Only the latter works for me - samba 3.0.22

Scenario: a) Samba with an ldap backend. b) The ldap database becomes irretrievably corrupted. c) I roll in a new ldap database from a known good copy. d) Problem is the passwords for the machine accounts are out of date. e) Is it possible to coax Samba & the clients (mostly XP) to resynch their passwords? f) I want to preserve the client computers SIDs & names. g) I really

I have been having a problem with 'net getdomainsid' on a machine that I set up to be a BDC. # net getdomainsid Could not fetch local SID tdbdump shows that there is no machine SID in secrets.db, so I'm thinking that I overlooked the step that creates a machine SID. What creates the machine SID and when? Also, is it the hostname or the netbios name that samba uses as the machine

Are there any scenarios that require traffic from a zone to itself to be blocked? If not, Shorewall should possibly allow it as a matter of course. It seems strange having to explicitly create such a policy & it''s not immediately obvious when it is required. -- Taso Hatzi caesar 17 <<-salad cjbx jc vdwwjar jc xi jc jd salad

I don''t think this has anything to do with Shorewall but I am not too familiar with iptables stuff yet so I''m not sure. Running Shorewall shorewall-1.4.9 on Mandrake Linux release 9.2 (FiveStar) for i586 Kernel 2.4.22-37mdk. Run "nmap -sP 192.168.x.x/24" (for example), where 192.168.x.x/24 is the LAN. You can do this from a firewall/router, or even from a

Hello, I don't know if this was reported before, I never found anything related. A few days ago I installed a Domain Controller with samba 3.5.6, with an ldap backend. I added a Windows 2008 Server R2 to the domain but never was able to authenticate to the domain, I always got the error "There are currently no logon....." . After a time I decided to try samba 3.4.8, without any

Hi everyone I would like to know if it's possible to prevent many loggings on many computers from only one user? I have user who opened 12 computers, logged on those 12 computers and ran boinc-client on those 12 computers... I want to prevent this kind of behaviour... Thanks in advance.

I have a Samba 3.5 server running on Ubuntu 10.10 I'm have it the server on my Windows 2003 Domain but am having trouble setting up the ACL's. I can set some of my ACL's for users but it doesn't alwasy stick and apparently giving a user the modify right automatically gives them Full user rigths. This is probably related but it refuses to let me give any of my domain users any

Morning All! Anyone ever tried exporting a StorNext CVFS filesystem from a Linux box??? I?ve got this Samba server (3.5.6) running on CentOS 5.4 and it?s working fine, exporting ext3, nfs and an IBM GPFS filesystem just fine. So I know Samba is good an my configuration is working. I tried to add the exportation of a StorNext CVFS volume and that doesn?t work. All the other volumes still work

Hello, Is there a way to create an OU (in the AD sence) from Unix with the samba tools ? I have made a script that create all my users and groups (for a school). But I still need to create the OUs manually from windows with RSAT. Thanks. Baptiste.

Hi All, I am a bit new to Samba PDC. When a M$ tech article says: "Use Active Directory Users and Computers to create a new organizational unit (OU)". What does this mean in Samba PDC talk? Please translate. Many thanks, -T I have a lot of guesses, but I want to hear it from someone who has already done it.

Hello. I apologize for my English, I am still learning. How do I create an organizational unit (OU) via command in Samba4? I've researched very samba-tool and found nothing on the subject. Thank you. ? Atte, Johnata Tagliavini

Tomorrow morning, the following systems will be unavailable while I upgrade the OS on my firewall: a) shorewall.net b) lists.shorewall.net c) cvs.shorewall.net d) rsync.shorewall.net The upgrade will begin around 0700 PST (-0800) and will like take two hours or so.
