similar to: SAMBA 4 the ways to backup

Hello, list, Anyone running a recent version of samba4 as the only one AD controller in the domain, *in production*? If so, what is your overall experience? I am going to make such an install for a site with some 50 users (and frankly speaking, I am frightened ... so give me some courage!) Would you recommend me to go ahead and do it? Latest release? Any feedback is more that appreciated

Hi all, I've setup samba4 according to the samba4 wiki on centOS 5.4 in KVM. This went without any problems. I only had to install a higher version of bind to 9.6.x because Centos bind in repo will install version 9.3.x. I've used the Fedora12 source rpms for this to build bind 9.6.x on Centos 5.4. Then I configured bind according to the samba wiki

Greetings, I have new project on directory service and account management. I choose to implement Samba4 as DC since it has many features. I have done the setup and able to join windows 7 and Ubuntu 10.04 clients using Likewise-open 5.4. I have done roaming profile very well for Windows 7 machines. But I have some questions which I can't answer and implement like 1. Is there any way to use

Hi All, I am using Samba4 Alpha12, and i am trying to edit the password policy (which I believe is derived from the PDC's policy), but I am trying to figure out whether Samba4 can respond to GPOs. If It cannot, how would I define the password policy for the domain? Thanks.

Hello to all, I am running samba 4.3.4 on centos 6 and I recognized that new windows 10 clients do not register dns . Windows 8.1 and below do with no issue. Do I have to configure something special in my smb.conf?

I am trying to find a good guide for setting up the smb.conf and can't seem to find anything. Here's what I have been trying to do and it hasn't been working correctly. We had a Windows Server 2003 DC. I had to upgrade it because of some problems we were having and upgraded to Windows Server 2008 R2. After that, my Samba 3 with Winbind file server quit authenticating to the AD

Hi list, Some years ago, here at University of Poitiers, we used something called Netware. But it was expensive, so it was decided to abandonned it : some services migrated to samba and OpenLDAP, and others migrated to Windows Server. So now, Win7 is coming, and unfortunately we can't use Samba2 anymore. So the solution should be to use Samba3, wich supports Win7. But (yes there is

hi All, first of all, please keep up the good work. I use samba for at least 10 years now, and it never let me down. And the samba 4 release would even be better then ever (tried the alpha's already in test labs with multiple AD controllers, very impressive). But, now I am facing some difficulties. I need to migrate a small firm (40 users or something, will increase to 50 in 2 years or so)

Hello everyone, I am using samba4 as my Primary Domain Controller in my company. But I am concerned if my DC goes down due to some reason then is there any way I can create a Backup Domain Controller or Secondary Domain Controller which can be used at that moment of time so that all my users can login to their respected machines with all the policies. I don't want my organization's work

Dear all, to your notice:Samba 4.1 pulled from git will not compile under CentOs 6.4 if Glusterfs 3.4 is installed from epel-repo. Make will die with an error concerning "vfs modul glusterfs". There should be more documentation about the "vfs modul glusterfs". Daniel ----------------------------------------------- EDV Daniel M?ller Leitung EDV Tropenklinik

Hi, I setup a secondary DC to server as a fileserver for testing purposes. The DC (DCBACKUP) in question runs on top of a Fedora 21 x64 with VirtualBox. The DC OS also runs Fedora 21 x64.

Hello, ? I can read/access the registry on my samba 4.1.6 server, but I get a ?permission denied? if I write to some locations. Also, I cannot change the permissions. ? Is there any documentation about the registry on a samba4 server? ? Thanks, Mark

Dear all, Im testing samba4 and replacing the [nelogon] directory: What I have done yet: Deleted the original scripts directory from /usr/local/samba/var/locks/sysvol/my.domain/scripts Set a link to a new place : ln -s /mnt/glusterfs/ads/scripts /usr/local/samba/var/locks/sysvol/my.domain/ When I search my samba server using network neighborhood clicking on "netlogon" I am successful

Hi Daniel,  In that example that I wrote, I didn't create users yet, because I did public share only, but windows tell that I don't have permission. Do I need to create groups and users to that situation too? But when I add private share, I create local users (add user) and samba user, but when I type user and password Samba answer that I don't have permission too.I think the problem

Have a 2003 server located outside of the Domain network over a VPN. The server originally existed inside the network (10.1.1.0/24) but now exists on 10.10.12.0/24. I can access shares over the VPN to the domain controller, but when I try to log in as a domain user it says the domain is unavailable. I added the domain controller as a WINS server on the 2003 server. nbtstat -c on the 2003 does
