similar to: Samba, Win7 login failure

I'm curious how others manage their windows 7 machines on a samba 3.x.x domain .. especial the part of policies and scripts. i got the win7 running in the samba domain, but i'm stuck in the policies part.. and i don't want to use nitrobit for this. how do other users do this.. ?! thx, Collen

Hi, I found that login to Samba4 PDC takes few seconds in XP, but very long in Win7. The Login in Win7 is fast when setting this: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\System] "WaitForNetwork"=dword:00000001 If I set it to 1, the login takes about 3 seconds. If I set it to 90 (decimal), then the login takes more than 90 seconds. Setting it to 0 means using the

Good day all! I administer two Samba servers (RHEL 4.5) which, up to recently, had been working well. Our security officials changed the LAN Manager group policy for the new Win7 systems from 'Send NTLMv2 response only; Refuse LM' to 'Send NTLMv2 response only; Refuse LM & NTLM'. We were running samba 3.0.33. I have upgraded to 3.6.8-44. I have tried a variety of

In the course of upgrading from CentOS 5.4 to CentOS 5.5 I changed from using the samba (v3.0.x) packages to the samba3x (v3.3.8) packages, mostly because the newer version was said to better support Win7. The Samba server services Linux, WinXP, and Win7 clients. Now I get many, many errors logged to the Samba logs shortly after 3:00 AM, but only from the Win7 clients. I get roughly 430

Hi Davor, I finally found it! After going through https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Joining_a_Windows_Client_to_a_Domain , I checked the time settings on said clients and they differed from the AD DC too much. This also explains why some clients could join after a while...they synchronised with a NTP server after a day or so and then I was able to join. After that, joining the rest of clients was

hello list, i have a running vm with win7. When i fire up an 'virsh shutdown win7' nothing happens. When i fire up a second the same command, then the win7 machine is shutting down. Why do i need to fire up this command twice? Any ideas? best regards marko --

I?ve got a 4.1.3 Samba PDC Server on Debian Wheezy. It?s running in Classic mode ? all existing clients are Windows XP Pro. I?m installing a Windows 7 Pro 64-bit PC, and have managed to join it to the domain, but can?t get the user?s login script to run. The login scripts work fine on XP. The pertinent sections of smb.conf contain: logon script = %U.bat logon drive = G: [netlogon] path =

Dear Ola, I cannot say anything about Windows 7, as we do not have any Win7 machines here in our institute and I even do not know someone who have Win7 on a private machine. I will try to find a machine with this OS and test it. Anybody having experiences with Win7 yet?

Hi Davor, most of the domain accounts were part of an old NT4 domain. I did a classicupgrade. Your theory with the NTUSER.DAT-files seemed so promising, unfortunately that was not it. I created new accounts on an XP machine and a Win7 machine and tried to join with them, but still receive the same error. One of the machines I'm not able to join with, wasn't even part of the domain

Hi Some advice needed on samba-3.6.6 for win7 Since getting my win7 ultimate pc, I've only used my centos server with samba for a workgroup connection. Previously I had an XP client on this domain. I've updated today (17 feb 2013) to the latest centos5.9 (Linux 2.6.18-348.1.1.el5.centos.plus on i686) which includes samba3x with samba-3.6.600.129_el5 passdb backend has to be tdbsam now for

HI I'm running samba3x-3.5.10-0.110.el5_8.x86_64 on a fully updated CentOS-5.8 system as PDC. We upgraded our lab machines to Win7 over the summer The logins work ok and the homes share is being mounted from a separate fileserver. However the login batch command script is not running. It's just a simple script which syncs the system time and mounts another share. Part of smb.conf

hello, I skipped Vista and was using WinXP on all clients until now. I deployed my policies using a file ntconfig.pol in the [netlogon]-share, but this does not work with win7 any more. How do you deploy your policies with Vista or Win7 ? I use recent samba 3.4.6 and hope there is some way. Every experience welcome. I think thousands of readers here might have similar problems somehow :) Even

Hello, everybody! Does anyone have experience of running win7/winxp with xl? As for me, I got HAL_INITIALIZATION_FAILED BSOD on win7 booting and guest hanging in case of winxp. When i run these guests (with the same configs) with xm, everything is ok. The guests boot perfectly. Did anyone run into it too? I use the lattest xen-unstable, but i saw the problem several months ago too. My

After upgrading Win7 and W2K8 R2 clients to service pack 1 it is no longer possible to log in to domain(before the upgrade the clients can log in into domain). Clean installation of Win7/W2K8 R2 with integrated sp1 has the same effect. Our domain PDC is running on samba 3.3.7. I'm curious if anyone else has seen this already. Thank you Mikhail Zuskov

Hi All, I have a strange problem with my SAMBA server as PDC. I have some win7 machines joined to my domain but when I try to access some folders on the server I get messages like these: Authentication for user [machine$] -> [machine$] FAILED with error NT_STATUS_WRONG_PASSWORD [2012/01/17 11:34:52, 0] rpc_server/srv_netlog_nt.c:_netr_ServerAuthenticate2(555) _netr_ServerAuthenticate2:

Apologies, but after a fair amount of digging, I still only have a foggy understanding of the cause of this problem, due to my own ignorance. I hope to use RODBC package to connect to an Access DB when running 64 bit Win7 (R version 2.11.1, 64 bit). I have successfully done this before on a winXP machine. Currently I am unable to establish a connection using odbcConnect("") (I am

Hi All, I have running a PDC with samba and with my WinXp clients I have no problem but when I try to join the Domain with a Win7 I get the next error: [2011/09/15 14:15:58, 0] rpc_server/srv_netlog_nt.c:_net_auth_2(478) _net_auth2: creds_server_check failed.

Hi All: I'm facing a weird behavior with Samba 3.5.10. It's a CentOS 6.3 repository RPM. Samba is acting as a PDC and integrated with OpenLDAP 2.4.23, also a CentOS RPM, through smbldap-tools 0.9.3 (from EPEL). In my network I have Windows 7 64 bits and Windows 7 32 bits. The problem is that Samba is losing local master browser 'status' to Win7 32 bits machines. From time to

Started this over on the main list, but remembered there is a CentOS-virt list also where this would be more appropriate. At home, I'm all Linux and only run Windows in VMs when I absolutely have to (e.g., TurboTax on Win7 during the tax filing season). Now I'm trying to get Win7 running in a VM on CentOS 5.6 and kvm to connect to my iTouch and iPhone so I can sync them with iTunes.

I would like to create a bootable DVD containing Win7 from an official Microsoft ISO that I have on a CentOS-6.5 box. Is this even possible? If so then how is it done using CentOS? If I must create a Win7 repair disk on a Windows machine then this will be possible, but somewhat logistically challenging. I would much rather just get it done with the tools I have to hand. -- ***
