Thanks for getting back to me so quickly on this. In thinking about the topology that I am trying to set up, I will probably only set up a "private" DNS on the VPN for the 10.x.x.x users. With this in mind, I have now come up with a new question relating to this. What I will like to do is to give all of the uses, including roadwarriors, a static IP address on the 10.x.x.x address

Hello All, Well my Samba server is up and running good, but I am now needing to be able to let some of my users connect to our server who is not located on our local network. Actually they are located some distance away and I would like to be able to allow then to connect. Has anyone had any success with this and how it might be done?

Hello All, I hope that you are all doing well. I have been trying to get Samba setup and running on my Redhat 7.2 box so that users on Windows machines can login and be connected to their directory. The problem is that no matter what I try, I can see the Samba server from the Windows machine, but it keeps telling me that the password was not recognized and is the same linux password for each

Hello All, I am new to using wine on my Linux redhat 7.2 so please forgive the dumb questions, ok. I have been able to run a few of my Windows Applications from wine as a test, but ran into problems when I wanted to try a test and install OpenOffice 641c. I am getting messages like: ---------------------------------------------------------------- bash-2.05$ wine c:\\install\\setup Warning:

Hello All, I was just looking over how to set up the hosts files for Tinc and was wondering about how to handle Roadwarriors? It appears that the variable "Address=" must be set for individuals to connect to a host, right? Also, I am wondering about possibly using a private DNS+DHCP server combination that would allow the 10.x.x.x users to have their VPN ip resolved but this does

Hello All, Could someone please tell me if there is a was to use smbadduser in a non-interactive mode and just allow you to enter all of the particular user information on the command line? I need to set up a small script that will automate adding users to the smbpasswd file so that they can login. Cheers, Lonnie -- Lonnie Cumberland OutStep Technologies Incorporated EMAIL:

Hello All, How are you all doing today? Good i hope. I am wondering if some one could please comment on the scalability limitations of Tinc as far as bandwidth usage and connections? Thinking about the documentation on Tinc suggests that if it is always trying to maintain a full mesh topology and if there would be many nodes, e.g. more than about 100 or so active at a give time, then Tinc

Hello All, I am sure that this has been asked probably a million times on this list, but for our particular setup, I need to see if there is a way to have Samba authenticate its users based upon the Linux accounts password file? The reason is that we have other applications all working together and most of them are also using the Linux password file which make the process of maintaining

Greetings All, I am new to this list and currently have a Fedora 3 server set up with Samba which just needs to be configured. I would like to set up the MySQL database support for users and passwords as we have another project that will want to add entries to the Samba database so when the users are created so that they will have access to their home directories via samba. Could someone

Hello all, I think that this is probably an easy question so I hope that I will be able to get a quick response. In our users directories, there are a number of "dot" files and folders and I was wondering if there was a way to tell Samba not to show them when a user is in their directory? Maybe some sort of file filter perhaps. thanks Lonnie

Hello All, I have been looking over Tinc & VPE for a project and really like what I have seen in Tinc. In the VPE documentation, I came across: ----------------------------------------------------------- *connect = ondemand|never|always|disabled * Sets the connect mode (default: always). It can be always (always try to establish and keep a conenction to the given host), never (never

Hello All, I have just been reading the docs on Wine and came across the --managed Allow the window manager to manage created windows --winver Version to imitate (win95,nt40,win31,nt2k,win98,nt351,win30,win20) Does the "--managed" allow my xserver to take care of the windows? Also, if I set "--winver nt2k" then does this mean that Wine will look for the

Hello All, I have installed the latest Wine onto my Linux Redhat 7.2 and it seems to run very well for the most part. I can easily map a Linux directory to a Windows drive, but I actually have a need to be able to map a linux directory to windows subdirectory. About the only way that I can currently think of that might work would be to use a symbolic link on the Linux subsystem. cheers, Lonnie

Hello, I just downloaded all of the tinc subversion stuff and was wondering what was the state of the 2.0 version located in "branches" directory? What is the difference over 1.03 other than a nice layout for the directory structure which I like very much? Thanks, Lonnie

greetings All, I have been reading over the Tinc manual and have become very interested in the "4.2 Multiple Networks" section of the manual. In particular, I am wondering if I read this correctly in that by using: `-n, --net=netname' Use configuration for net netname. then I can have multiple daemons running on the same machine. If I have 3 machines A, B, and C with A being

Hello All, I have been trying all afternoon to rebuild the Samba RPM for my Fedora 3 with the MySQL passdb support and from what I can see it only needs the inclusion of "--with-expsam=mysql" in the SPEC file in addition to the regular ones. The problem is that no matter what version of Samba I try to rebuild, it always gice an error at the same place:

Greetings All, Can someone please try to answer a few questions for me regarding TINC so that it might clear up some things that I can trying to get a better picture on. 1. I am trying to understand the ideas that allow a TINC host to join multiple networks which raise questions. What prevents a user from joining multiple networks without authorization to join. How is that authorization

First of all let me say thanks for answering all of my emails to the mailing list with the many questions that I have had. Your answers have been a great help. Just a few more questions, ok. I have been reading over the documentation and need to find out how Tinc behaves regarding the VPN and hosts as I will have to distinct situtations to address in our system. 1. Which is a web server for

Hello All, I am having a problem trying to ger Samba wot work again. It was working a few days ago and now it has stopped. My OpenVPN is working just fine but Samba does not seem to find the names.
