Hello all: I have a Samba PDC (Samba 2.2.3) on RedHat 7.3 currently serving about 40 to 50 clients with the intent of adding another 60 to 70 in the coming weeks. Everything is working decently well. I do have one problem that I am concerned about though. I have had to make many users Admin users so that a certain application can run. This does not concern me so much except for where data

Hello, I am currently trying to replace a 2003 AD Server with LDAP backed Samba3 acting as a PDC. Two days ago, Windows7 clients (that are on a different subnet) than the samba server were working well and I thought my understanding advances. Then, I started to learn how to integrate printers and suddenly I noticed that the Windows7 clients stopped working -- even with the working smb.conf that

Hello, After an upgrade from 3.3 to 3.5, we ran into this bug when we tried using NTLM for authentication: https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7481 . To solve this issue, I am now trying to upgrade from the (latest) CentOS 3.5 packages, to the "Enterprise Samba" 3.6 packages from enterprisesamba.org. After upgrading, the SID changed, so I changed it back to the old value.

All: Before I actually go and take the plunge on performing this upgrade I would like to find out if there are any caveats I should be aware of. I am using RedHat 7.3 and have been using the pre-installed Samba since I began upgrading our network to Samba about 4 months ago. I plan on using the 2.2.7a rpm from Samba.org and would like to know if any of you have done this and whether or not

Hey, everyone. I'm running Samba 2.2.8a on a Debian Linux 3.0 box and for some reason, when someone tries to delete something they can't, it does give them the access denied message the first time. When they try to do it again, no message appears and it seems to be deleted (it disappears from the list), but when they refresh the list, it appears again. My file system is as follows

I'm trying to work out how I can create domain administrators with Samba 3. I currently have the following in smb.conf domain admin group = @smbadmins domain admin users = root jbb User "root" can do administrator stuff on the domain and any local machines it logs in on.

Hi to all, I'm configuring a samba server to act as Windows Domain Server through ldap, I've created the users for the domain, and seems to work fine when I'm not trying to log against the domain, (I tried with smbclient and mac os x).

Greetings all, While I haven''t given up on getting a dead gateway detection script a la nano.txt to work on my T1/DSL router box, I have taken a break and played with the mpath2.sh script that Robert Kurjata wrote back in 2001. This shows more promise in that I can actually get it to work - is it foolish to try and use this script for this purpose? Here''s my setup: My router
