Hi there, I switched servers yesterday. The old server was running 2.2.7a-1 on RedHat 8.0. The new server is 3.0.8-0.pre1.3 on Fedora Core 3. I did the migration by copying the following: /etc/passwd /etc/group /etc/shadow /etc/samba/* I then copied /home and fixed all the permissions on stuff. I then started up samba on the new server, and unplugged the old one. Most everything went

Hi there, Here are the facts: - I have samba 3.4.2-0.42.fc11 running on a Fedora 11 system. - Samba is acting as a domain controller, no Windows server involved. - I am using tdbsam. - I need to enforce certain password requirements. The password requirements are: - min 8 characters - expiration 90 days - last 10 passwords may not be reused - not a dictionary word Per the Samba 3.2 FAQ, the

I am yet another person who is having a problem with Win98 clients needing to make several attempts before successfully logging in to our Samba box. I get the "broken pipe" message in the smb.log just like everyone else. This did not seem to be a problem until we got a phat broadband connection. All the Windows boxes are set to point to our ISP's DNS. I am not running DNS on the

Well, I've asked a couple times already but I will ask one more, since I still havent' managed to get any further. We have several sites. Each site has it's own network and domain. We are connected via a WAN. Is the best practice to have one WINS server for each site? Or is a single WINS server for the WAN the way to go? Right now I have a single WINS server for the WAN. I CAN NOT

Hello, I am calculating 'Betweenness' of a large network using R. Currently, I have the node-node information (City1-City2) in an excel file, present in two columns where column A has City1 and column B has City2 that city1 is connected to. These are the steps that I go through to calculate betweenness of my network. a) Convert the City1-City2 (text) into Number1-Number2 in the excel

Dear R helpers   I have a city.csv file as given below.   'city.csv' city_name1        city_name2 New York City    Buffallo         So I define   city_name = read.csv('city.csv') city1 = city_name$city_name1 city2 = city_name$city_name2   My problem is how do I repeat the names one after other say 10 times i.e. my output should be like   New York City Buffallo New York City

Hi folks, I am having a weird problem that I just recently noticed on this particular server runnng Samba 3.0.10 on Fedora Core 3 and am hoping someone could shed some light on this. We're using tdb for our backend database. The user "nsu" is a member of unix group admin. The unix group admin is mapped to "Domain Adminstrators". This works OK, in that when logging in

Dear all, I would like to save few variable-names with their values in a tabular form, with that I mean that files can be printed easily in R in a tabular form and also saved in a ascii file that when one opens it see also the variables in a nice tabular format. IS that possible? Below a small example of how should look results in R and in a txt file.              Postal Code | Superb

Hi Samba folks, I had a couple questions about password complexity checking. To preface, in smb.conf, we set: check password script = /usr/local/sbin/crackcheck -d /usr/share/cracklib/pw_dict Also, if I understand correctly: /usr/local/sbin/crackcheck comes from samba source rpm package. maybe we need to compile it ourselves. /usr/share/cracklib/pw_dict* comes from cracklib-dicts rpm

Is there a specific way of doing the smb.conf to make windows7 join the domain? was able to make windows7 join in one instance but when is not successful in logging into the domain using a domain user and also cannot add a domain user to the local machine. From my initial attempts, I was able to join the win7 machine but after I upgraded to 3.4.7 everything seems to have gone to hell.

Hi Samba List, I've been trying to get a samba+ldap working on centos 6.3. I've had some troubles adapting to the new slapd.d configuration format for the openldap, which seems unnecassarily complicated. Most of the tutorials refer to the older style slapd.conf configuration. I was following this tutorial:

After update my PDC server from Centos 5.5 to 5.11 and then samba 3.5 to 3.6.22 all work fine, except printers: all CUPS printers shared are not visible and usable from clients. If I put manually each printer (like suggest here[1]) into smb.conf, all printers manually added are visible and usable (this is my workaround for now). In smb.conf I have set: load printers = yes

Hi Samba List! Used samba3 for years, now it's time for samba4 (thanks!!!) Unfortunately I am not familiar with certain microsoft concepts about AD and the roles of domain controllers. I've got three vm's for my experiments: 1) a samba4 domain controller test1.test.local 2) a samba4 additional domain controller test2 joined to my domain test.local. 3) a win7 workstation that is

Ok...I can't believe I'm still struggling with this!!! I've setup a SAMBA server using ARCH Linux 0.7 (Wombat) *what a distro!!* and everything is fine except when it comes to adding machines to the domain (aaarrrgghh). When I try to do it via windows, I get "the domain is no longer available". So I add a machine account manually, then go to windows and walla, I get the

Hi, I have searched for days on Google and can't find a clear answer to my question. I have a NT4 PDC which I am migrating to Samba 3 (Version 3.4.2-47.fc12) on FC12 with kernel(2.6.31.5-127.fc12.i686). I am using tdbsam as my passdb backend. I setup Samba as a BDC and then joined to NT4 Domain succesfully. When I go to vampire the accounts I get lots of errors and some user accounts get

I'm working on migrating from Mandrake 10.0 to Ubuntu 5.10. The last, and probably most important, service to be moved is Samba... The setup is fairly simple, here is is: - Mandrake Linux 10.0 - Samba 3.0.10 Here's the "global" Samba configuration of my server: [global] workgroup = <workgroup name> server string = <string> passdb backend =
