Hi, I would like to change the Logon script name attributes of a samba user account to something like logon%u.cmd using pdbedit with the --script option. It does not work because the string logon%u.cmd is litteraly taken as the value, loosing the variable substitution at evaluation time. pdbedit -v output gives "Logon Script : logon%u.cmd" .? When creating a user account without

In samba3-3.3.9-40.el4 and samba3-3.4.7-42.el5 there are 3 .tdb files /var/lib/samba/locking.tdb /var/lib/samba/wins.tdb /var/lib/samba/mutex.tdb which are not documented in http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/install.html# tdbdocs. Are they persistent or temporary? Moray. "To err is human.? To purr, feline"

Hi Volker, It would be useful if your 3.3.9 build (currently in recent) included the /var/spool/samba directory - it just took me a while to figure out why Samba printing wasn't working on a new EL5 server ;-) Moray. "To err is human.? To purr, feline"

Hello, I've a Samba Server 3.0.24 with LDAP backend. I've tried to migrate to Samba 3.5 (Version 3.5.2-SerNet-Debian) with again a LDAP backend. But once the server was installed, my XP machine can't connect the domain. The error is : netlogon_creds_server_check failed. Rejecting auth request from client DEVH machine account DEVH$ Since I've done the test locally the

CentOS 6.4 appears to have been shipped with a broken Samba 3.6. The new NMBDSOCKETDIR option defaults to /var/nmbd, which of course is an invalid directory and should not be created[1]. While hopefully they can fix it with an option to their configure script at build time, could Samba itself provide better defaults so that new options like this don't take OS developers by surprise? Moray.

Hi I am trying to use usrmgr.exe in order to manage users and groups on my samba server PDC (passdb backend = tdbsam ) . I have the following strange behavior of usrmgr.exe : * when I launch usrmgr.exe from a user account that is part of the Domain Admins group or that explicitly has the SeAddUsersPrivilege privilege, I can see the list of users and groups , and create a new user, BUT when I

Hi all, hope someone can help me out with this.?? out of the blue all of my win98 machines (4 of them) cant access my domain.? I know they should be upgraded to a XP, but the app that we use on them only runs on 98.? the error i get on logon is: the domain password you supplied is not correct, or access to your logon server has been denied. at first i was thinking that it was the win98

Thanks to all at SerNet for the timely updates to your Samba packages! Your CentOS rpms do not automatically restart Samba after an update, so "yum update" must be followed by "service smb restart". Is this a deliberate design? Most RHEL/Fedora daemon packages include a "service x condrestart" in the postinstall script, so that yum updates can be completely

Hi there, I'm wondering if there any patch or recent developement that would allow to include a directory rather than a file in smb.conf Something like includedir = /etc/samba/shares.d/ instead of include = /etc/samba/shares.conf Thanks for your help Santiago ------------------------- *Santiago DIEZ* *Director* *+33 6 37 90 81 98* -------------------------

Hi. I have two servers located in two different time zones. I want to know if there is a way to keep the shares synchronized. Right now what i thought is to run rsync from Server A to Server B . However the issue is say Server B has a new version of the file in server A and that should not be overwritten but should be copied back to server A. How to go about this? Regards Janantha

I'm not sure that this is the right place to ask about this, but one of my users is having a problem with her files,specifically excel files which she is editing with openoffice. I suspect that she is closing down her PC without logging out or something and so appears to be still logged in. She is using Vista and the server is a Debian Lenny box. Whenever she tries to access the files on

Hi, I've been through a long discussion of this on the CentOS list, where people are quite helpful, yet we've gotten nowhere with it. With smbd Version 3.0.33-3.14.el5 on two different CentOS 5.4 64-bit boxes, "/etc/init.d/smb start" reports OK for both nmbd and smbd, but an instant later smbd stops running, with no errors reported - just fails, no matter what logging level is

Hi, I'm trying to join a Windows 7 client to a samba domain.? We're running samba 3.3.9 from SerNet.?

Unfortunately, I'm still getting: The following error occurred attempting to join the domain because the following error has occurred: The specified domain either

Hi all (and best wishes for the new year to everyone :-) ) I have currently a Samba 3.5.6 server that acts as a PDC and print Server, with tdbsam backend, no LDAP at all. In a very next future, I will have to migrate samba to a new server (a VM actually). This migration will have to be seamless for all users (more than 200 user accounts with more than 200 PC in the domain). The

I have samba setup to use an external password change command using: [global] ... unix password sync = Yes ldap password sync = No passwd program = /path/to/smbldap-passwd -u %u passwd chat = *New*password* %n\n *Retype*new*password* %n\n I use the Idealx smbldap-passwd command to update my LDAP database and everything works fine.
