Hello, Does anyone test ZFS on Linux and ACLs? I can't setup POSIX ACLs and any extended even using acl_xattr or acl_tdb. Is any way to use ACLs with ZFS on Linux (Samba 3 or 4)? Best regards /Adrian Berlin --

Hi all, I have a Centos 6 box running samba-3.6.9 and I have a problem with files turning to 0 bytes after being edited and saved. One of the users reported that he changed the name of two files and both ended up sized 0 bytes and opening them revealed them to be empty. Has anyone had a similar problem? I've been looking for 3 days and there's obvious pattern to the events

We recently migrated our install from an ancient fedora 11 install of samba and openldap to a centos 6.3 setup with its openldap and samba. The domain has been totally recreated from scratch as the person that did the previous setup has not been employed here in many years. After fighting with shares for a while we mostly got them fixed and working. However the biggest issue now is when our GIS

Hi, I have built two samba4 boxes, one as a PDC and the as a DC, all working perfectly. If I create a user through the mmc snapin then turn off the PDC, I can still login to the domain using the DC which is great. The problem is their files and ntfs permissions on BDC. I have assigned user and group rights using windows explorer to certain folders, i.e granted user1 full permissions to that

Can I deploy software/applications through group or domain policy with samba?

Hi, I have tried both RC4 and from the repository but I can't seem to get samba4 to compile. I have rebuilt the OS (Centos 6.3) from scratch and I am still having the same issue. I get: WAF_MAKE=1 ./buildtools/bin/waf build Waf: Entering directory `/opt/samba-master/bin' Selected embedded Heimdal build [ 133/3978] Generating VERSION [ 168/3978] Generating smbd/build_options.c [1815/3978]

Hi, im trying to setup a password policy with samba and openldap. while lockout works perfect on openldap it looks like it does not work with my samba. Ive set "sambaLockoutThreshold" to 3 and "sambaLockoutDuration" to -1 (lockout forever) within the Domain-Object in LDAP. So i expect whenever a windows user does 3 false logon attemps his samba account will be LOCKED

Hi list, I can't make idmap talk to my LDAP server. And I haven't found an updated howto. Some entries from log.windbindd-imap: [2012/04/13 20:05:40.500475, 5] winbindd/idmap.c:153(smb_register_idmap) Successfully added idmap backend 'ldap' [2012/04/13 20:05:40.501112, 5] winbindd/idmap.c:153(smb_register_idmap) Successfully added idmap backend 'tdb' [2012/04/13

Hello, is it possible to let samba update the DNS entries in our bind DNS server whenever a windows PC connects to the network ? Bye Andreas

I have about 60 PC's running windows XP behind vpn routers in different locations. I find that they lose connection or sync (or whatever the right word is) to the domain periodically, probably when the vpn shuts down due to low demand. The result is that any domain user not already in the local password hash cache cannot log in and any local share with domain permissions on it will not

Hi, all -- I am trying to set up an additional domain server within? my network using SAMBA and LDAP.? There's a problem that I think is with LDAP.? If any of you have set up a system like this, I would appreciate your expertise. Question # 1:? My PDC, which controls the domain and SAMBA, should clearly use LDAP server.? Should the additional server use SAMBA server or client??

Hello I want to add Win7 machine to my Samba PDC with WinXP clients. Google tells me I have to add a .V2 to my profiles. The samba log ask about a .v2 share. Can someone explain me the difference of the v2 extension at the profile names and the roaming profile share? Following my settings: smb.conf: [global] logon path = \\%L\nt-profile logon home = \\%L\nt-profile [nt-profile]

I'm rsync'ing an rdiff-backup repository to a different machine and I have a few questions I'm hoping you guys can help me out with. Should I use --archive? Or maybe -rlD instead? Can I restrict an SSH key to rsync? I can do it with rdiff-backup with command="rdiff-backup --server" but I can't figure out how to do it with rsync. The rdiff-backup repository I'm

Hi, i have a samba server setup on debian to use a server 2k3 AD for auth. This works perfectly fine what doesnt work, is ACL permissions.

Hi, I have configured a samba PDC with a logon script. The logon script includes dos commands to map a drive letter for different shares. One share has user home directory, one has common folder for all the users and other share is group share. For assigning a drive letter to group share I have used the command "net use g: \\%L\group\%G" but group share drive is not mounting for any of

Hello, I've setup a PDC with Samba 3.0.23 and a ldap-backend. Roaming Profiles are working, but I always have the desktop.ini visible in some folders of the Windows-Startmenue. I found several hints for the dos-attributes in smb.conf, buit notthing seems to work. Any hints? Here is my smb.conf: [global] workgroup = example server string = b-login passdb backend

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 sure this is related to name-spaces, but for some reason [brain damage perhaps? :) ] I can't seem to figure out how to fix it. In TBird, for example, I have a folder tree that looks like this Inbox -| Folder-A Folder-B Folder-C Folder-A Folder-B Folder-C And Folder-A, Folder-B, Folder-C are the same folders, just shown twice. [In two different hierarchies.] I'm using

I'm still in the "what's wrong" stage of figuring out what's going on. But I've got a mail user who isn't getting new messages. Postfix accepts it and drops it in the users mbox. [This is verified. If I tail the Mbox, I can see the new messages.] "Mail" will see the messages too. But dovecot doesn't seem to know they exist. I don't think the MBox
