similar to: Roaming Profile synchronization errors on new samba

I'm just curious how this works. I've set up an Active Directory Domain controller using Samba 4.0.0. I DO NOT have Winbind configured. When I run "ls -al /samba/share/directory" I notice that I have users named like 3000000 belonging to the group "users". Without windbind configured, how do I have users and groups inside of my Samba domain (for instance the

I'm pretty new to compiling software, although I would rather compile my own Samba 4.0.0 server rather than wait for it to become available in the repositories of my distribution. How do you update compiled software. Like if I compile and install Samba 4.0.0, and then 4.0.1 comes out, Is there a way to update to that without starting from scratch and having to rebuild my domain? Thanks

Hi, I am running an old CentOS 4 server with samba 3.4.9 and am trying to move to a new server running Centos 6 and the latest stock samba 3.5.10-125. Upon trying to switch over to the new server, I noticed that accessing shares and copying files worked perfectly fine, however upon login off, the roaming profile fails with error message: Your roaming profile was not completely synchronized.

I have Samba 4.6.6 running as an ADDC and all is working great. I have a Samba 3.6.9 File Server that I want to join to the domain. I have gone through the steps but am having issues. In my smb.conf file I have added the following realm = my.domain security = ads encrypt passwords = yes I edited my Kerberos file [libdefaults] default_realm = MY.DOMAIN dns_lookup_kdc = true

[I post the same message on Ubuntu forum] Hi, I need help to fix a problem with Samba as PDC and Folder redirection on a Roaming Profile. I know it's not the best place to post this, but I don't know any better place. So if you have suggestion, tell me. Here my problem : I'm in a testing environement with a Samba server setup as a PDC with some share (netlogon, profiles) to support

Hi, I have a domain controller which was configured to use the local profiles. We have a relatively small group whose work required it. Now we are moving toward using the domain for all machine with roaming profile. There are a lot of posts dealing with the roaming profiles and the folder redirection. But I've met some issues. My configuration: NS3 and SMB are hostnames of our servers.

Hey everyone. I compiled Beta 9 and used the Bind9 DNS server for Samba DNS. Now I'd like to compile and set up RC1. I hear that it uses the new internal DNS server by default. Is there any additional configuration that needs to be set up here with the new DNS implementation?

Hi, Just a quick question about Roaming Profiles : Is there a way to force Windows to use Roaming Profils only on the share network, and without local copy ? I set Roaming Profile on a samba share with a GPO, but some users have a big profile so login is very slow Thanks Tom

I'm running Samba 3.0.7 on SuSE 9.1 with OpenLDAP for auth. I've been mostly following along Terpstra's Book "Samba 3 By Example", as lots of other people here have been. The three big problems I'm having are: 1) After a Windows XP user logs out for the first time, upon next login they get an error message saying "Windows cannot log you in because your profile

Hello, I'm using a WIndows Server 2016 as a DC and Samba 4.5 (Debian Stretch) as a fileserver. The fileserver is made with Windows ACLs (exactly like the Samba tutorial). The Windows 10 Client cannot copy these 4 files: C:\Users\testuser\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\UPPS\UPPS.bin -> UNC\FS\profiles\testuser.V6\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\UPPS\UPPS.bin

We are migrating all of our users from the current domain to a new one we created. In this process we are moving them from roaming profiles to local. What would be the best practice to accomplish this? I can find plenty of writeups on how to do the opposite. Also we will be doing some extra folder redirection. Currently we only redirect their my documents to the server. On the new system we plan

Hello, I'm about to deploy Samba PDC and several BDCs. As far as I understand Samba and domain logons, this means that a user will be able to log onto any server, with his workstation choosing a domain controller that is probably the closest/fastest etc. one. As a consequence, this also means, that on each server there has to be a copy of a profile of a given user, right? If so, how can

Hello, I'm quite new to Samba administration and I've inherited a working samba setup with roaming profiles however the login and logout times for users has been growing and I'm starting to think it's time do something about it. I'm thinking redirect some folders to a samba share on the network will speed up the login and logout times. Our setup has 25 Windows 7 workstations

Hi folks, I've got a bit of an issue with roaming profiles and I wondered if someone might be able to help please? :-) We've started rolling out Samba 4 across our network. Currently it's on 3 of our 4 sites, one site has two Samba servers and two sites have one Samba server each (well one site has two Samba 4 servers but one of the servers was an oldish test box which I'm

Hello All, I have a problem with my roaming profiles where they are becoming too large due to the Thunderbird mail accounts (stored by default) in Application Data. What I would like to do is exclude this directory from being part of the roaming profile. How can I do this? Also, how hard is it to have some users not use a roaming profile but others continuing to use a roaming profile? We

I've compiled, installed, and set up the first Samba release candidate three times this last week, and every time I've noticed that the provision step is not creating a Reverse Lookup Zone. It creates a Forward Lookup Zone with all the A records of the test clients that I join, but there's no Reverse Lookup Zone for the client's PTR records. When I was using the BIND DNS server,I

I created a test domain on a Samba 4.0.0 machine, and added a Server 2008 R2 server. I joined it as a domain controller and DNS server. I've noticed that records that I create on one server aren't being replicated to the other. I experienced this with some of the Betas and Release Candidates too, but I thought it was fixed. Why isn't DNS replication working? Thanks Samba team
