I hope that someone here can give some advice on the following: I have a Samba based Active Directory. A CentOS 7.6 machine runs as a file server and hosts the Windows user profiles for all the Windows workstations. Now management has decided that they need a Windows server for a couple of administrative applications, which need MS SQL Server. That would be the only role of this Windows.

>> Did you think to run 'samba-tool domain tombstones expunge --help' ? No, I didn't, I just assumed that the message "'samba' will remove them daily, 'samba-tool domain tombstones expunge' would do that immediately" would mean exactly that :-). It worked now. Thank you!

I'm using RHEL 7.4 I have built the samba from source, downloaded the tar file then extract ./configure make make install and I have installed all required packages and dependencies including gpgyme and I don't know why it's not working. ________________________________ From: Rowland Penny <rpenny at samba.org> Sent: Sunday, March 31, 2019 3:57 PM To: samba at

Please ask this question on the Samba list. The probability of getting an answer is higher there. samba at lists.samba.org

In that case, if you don't have "browsable = yes" on a share, that share will not appear in the Computer Management applet in Windows and you won't be able to set its

Hi list, Today, I spent most of the day figuring out why my password policies set via GPO are not applied on a domain level, just to find out that this is not one of the many occasions where Windows is the problem but it's really Samba, for a change. Apparently, password policies can only be changed using samba-tool and not via GPO. IMO, the FAQ is not very clear here.

I have been using shares with spaces in their names for years without running into problems even once. Windows fully supports it, so should and does Samba. In a business environment you NEED proper, human readable names, not ugly convoluted substitutes. Just

I'm struggling with trying to create a unified, ldap-backed for my home network. I have an existing directory that handles my posix logins correctly and I'm able to auth smb users against those accounts, but I'm not able to join any machines to the directory. It would be profoundly helpful to see a ldif dump of a working configuration. Surely others have created similar setups at home

I did that kind of in the past. Now I dont because I have plenty of resoruces available. But. So far you have not provided stats on server usage (cpu,ram) over a 24hour or 7 day 8am-5pm timeframe. So I will asume you have plenty of usage/performance to spare. I suggest you to -if possible- replicate the current server setup somewhere else and then install the KVM and dependencies via yum. That way
