similar to: migrating from Centos 5.8 -> 6.3 LDAP Client Config

Hi, any one has successfully joined a Windows 7 workstation to a samba (3.0.33) domain on CentOS 5.8? I am wondering if I need to install a newer version (from sernet by example) or if I can keep the old one and try harder... Thx, JD

Hello, I have a CentOS4 install and I am trying to mount a Windows Server 2008 folder. When I use this command: mount -t cifs //10.1.1.17/Org/MR\ Ops/ test, it only mounts the Org folder. When I try the same thing on a newer computer (Fedora 15), it mounts all the way to MR Ops. So I am pretty sure that my cifs file needs to be updated, but I am having a really hard time doing this. I updated

Hi guys, any CUPS / Samba experts out there? The CUPS printing guide is a horrendous maze of options. I've got nearly there but I've got one thing wrong and I don't know where to look. I set up our two printers (HP K5400s) using the GUI printer tool. Both print the test page just fine. I set up the [printers] and [print$] shares and can browse to the printers from Windows (XP for me)

So, the more I look at various ways to lay out my infrastructure, the more I am thinking about specs for hardware. Starting with firewalling. How does one determine the specs for a firewall? What I mean is: 1. motherboard/CPU - p4? Dual-Core? Intel i3, i5, i7? 2. RAM? 4gb? 8gb? More? 32gb? 3. Obviously GB Nics! I am bring about 300gb of traffic a month right now and I expect that to

Though I've worked with enterprise systems, I'm not familiar with FOOS backup software. Which of those recommended would allow me to backup a system while users are active on it? If it matters the system uses LVM. I'd also like to be able to avoid needing the network if possible. That is, I'd plug in a disk into a USB port and backup the system onto that... again, while

Hi all.

I'd like to run a CLI broadband speed tester on my CentOS server. I downloaded "tespeed" from <http://sourceforge.net/projects/tespeed/>. This ran fine under Fedora-19, but failed under CentOS with the message "# reject large message", although from a quick look at the source it did not seem to be using a large test-file. Does anyone know of an alternative CLI

Hi all, I issued the commands on a single disk system: with two partitions / is linux sda1 and /home is sda3 yum -y update yum -y install e4fsprogs reboot umount /home tune2fs -O extents,uninit_bg,dir_index /dev/sda3 e2fsck -yfDC0 /dev/sda3 That worked just fine. I then had a different system that is software raid. where / is linux and md0 and /home is md1 yum -y update yum -y

I'm running a headless server, so no GUI, just ssh logins. I don't seem to have the mechanism that automounts USB drives to a subdirectory of /media, and from googling around I think that's a feature of a GUI-based system. What implements it? Right now I manually create a mountpoint in /mnt and then manually mount by label from /dev/disk/by-label after plugging the drive in. It

Hi All, We have a problem, which is that several of our users are local admins on their own workstations. We'd like to let them retain these rights, but we're switching to a PDC. Is there a way to have them authenticate to the domain, and as a regular user, but on the Windows workstation have full control? What's the best solution for this? I obviously don't want to make them

hi! we seem to have a weird problem with our samba server and i hope somebody can point me in the right direction to find the cause of this problem setup: smbAT02:~# uname -a Linux smbAT02 2.6.18-5-amd64 #1 SMP Sat Dec 22 20:43:59 UTC 2007 x86_64 GNU/Linux .) the OS is debian stable (etch) .) samba version is 3.0.24-6etch9 .) the server has 8GB of RAM, 2 quad core intel cpus, about 1.5 TB of

I am looking for a supplier of Digium hardware in Canada. Any suggetions? Thanks, Adi

Suppose I have the first vector: c(1, 6, 8, 9) I will like to create a second vector of size 10 composed of 0 and 1's. The second vector will be composed of four 1's and six 0's. The position of the 1's will be specificed by the first vector. So essentially, I want a second vector in the form: c(1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0) Any help is greatly appreciated! -- View this message

Hi, I have a samba 3.6 PDC with ldap backend. Now I'd like to add an other storage samba server which uses the same home directory structure as the PDC. I have configured the new server using winbind, so the users can log in with the password stored in ldap. But the home directory stored in ldap is not used; the new server searches in /home/UID or /home/DOMAIN/uid. Any hints? Or

Hi, I'm planing to setup a new samba fileserver as a member to an existing samba 3.x SMB. The old server is still nss-pam-ldapd configured (historic left overs). As I dont have any pressure to have the new server up and running within the next few hours, I liked to set up sssd with our existing openldap. After googling and reading some documentations from redhat/fedora I think I do have a

Hi, we use kerberos with keytabs on our clients. We do *not* trust root on the clients! One client should never have access to any other client''s keytab. This is my proposed solution to get the keytabs to the clients, any comments welcome! 1. Use file to get /root/.ssh/authorized_keys 2. Use exported resource to let the client "notify" the server that it wants a keytab 3. On

Hi, forgot that... CIFS and NFS. May be we split both to different servers. One CIFS, one NFS. Regards . Götz Am 13.07.16 um 08:26 schrieb Garland McAlexander: > What shares will you be using?

Hi all, I have a Samba PDC with an LDAP backend. Yesterday, I tried to add a new machine to the network and received the following message: The following error occurred attempting to join the domain: The password of this user has expired Not a problem I thought, and then ran smbldap-usermod -e "2010-12-30 00:00:00" root to extend the password date.
