I have tried to read the documentation, but I was not able to find a clear solution to my problem. I run Samba 3.0.14a on a Debian system with Posix ACLs. I have a share on a file system that uses Posix ACLs, and I have two directories in that share. Both directories have default ACLs set, so that every new file (or directory) created under each directory (by Windows XP/2000 clients)

Hi, this is my first post to the list. I have googled a lot, and still cannot find a proper solution. I hope someone here will be able to shed some light on my doubts. I have set up a firewall using kernel 2.6.15 (Debian) that does NAT for 100 clients, and uses two different ISPs, using the howto found at http://lartc.org/howto/lartc.rpdb.multiple-links.html. I have *not*

In testing pqR on Solaris SPARC systems, I have found two bugs that are also present in recent R Core versions. You can see the bugs and fixes at the following URLs: https://github.com/radfordneal/pqR/commit/739a4960a4d8f3a3b20cfc311518369576689f37 https://github.com/radfordneal/pqR/commit/339b7286c7b43dcc6b00e51515772f1d7dce7858 The first bug, in nls, is most likely to occur on a 64-bit

I have Samba PDC and use tdbsam backend. I use the version 3.0.11, but recently I have exchanged it for the version 3.0.23c. Now I have a number of problem. Here is one of then. I wish to move one user "gad" from Domain Users (RID 513) to Domain Guests (RID 514). Now Primary group of user "gad" is "Domain Users": pdbedit -Lv gad -d0 Unix username: gad NT

Hello samba, I have an issue with OpenVPN 2.0 and Samba 3.0.14a. My setup consists in a routed VPN (thus server and clients are on different subnets) between a linux OpenVPN 2.0 server and some Windows 2000 VPN clients. Samba is the PDC and is a WINS server. The VPN clients work, broswing works, and I see the clients registering on the server's WINS in

I am looking for some way to grant or deny internet access (that is, changing iptables rules) based on Samba domain logon. When a user logs on, I would like to run a script that modifies firewall rules based on the group that the user belongs to (this determines if he has internet access or not) and based on the workstation's IP address (so I know which IP address to grant internet access

I'd like to set up my samba 2.2.8a server to serve printer drivers to clients when needed. I have set up the print$ share, in which I still have no drivers. Tried adding drivers from a win2000 workstation by using "server properties" command, I can't add anything since all buttons are greyed out. The user I am using is in the printer admin group in smb.conf. I

I am currently planning "half a migration" (and half a new configuration) from NT to Samba PDC, and I would like to have some help. I have read the howto and I have understood something useful, but I also understood that I don't know enough of Samba domain internals to be sure not to make terrible mistakes. I currently have a NT4 PDC that also shares files and

I have installed lots of samba 3 servers as PDCs for little networks serving 10 users or so. I have always set up the user "root" as the domain administrator, by setting its group SID to <domainSID>-512 with pdbedit. My "root" user has usually a user SID of <domainSID>-1000 since it is the first user I add to Samba. I have never set up a username map

Hi All, I've been trying to tackle this for some time and so far did not find a way to do this. The problem is simple - as I don't enable printing through Samba I'd like to disable it in such fashion that user would not even see the empty Printers share when he lists the available shares. How can I achieve that? Best Regards, Marek C.

I am trying to setup a Netbois alias that uses it's own smb.conf file. I have made the following changes to the original smb.conf file: netbois alias = TPUB02 include = /usr/local/samba/lib/smb.conf.%L For some reason the smb.conf file in the include statement does not work. In touble shooting this issue I was able to hardcode the smb.conf file name in the include statement and that does

Hi, I upgraded a mid-sized samba install (+-150 pc's) from Samba 2.0.7 to 3.0.14a last night. It is acting as a PDC and the upgrade went smooth except for one thing. Under 2.0.7, it seems like the "include =" is recursive.. ie: in included files, you can include files. This behavior seems to have changed in 3.0.14a. Can someone confirm this? My setup: smb.conf include =

Hi all, I have a Samba 3.0.13 with ACL support running under SuSE and acting as a PDC for the hole organization. Among some shares, there's one that has about ten subdirectories. Everybody can access this share and restrictions are applied over those subdirs. The problem is that, for example, when I create a file (or modify it with Word or Exel) in the Finances subdirectory, the file has my

I know I have to update Samba, but it's a hard job on a lot of small installations, and it requires quite a lot of

I have googled a lot, but I have found no examples of the correct use of the tdbbackup program. I am looking for some advice on how to use tdbbackup. I mean, I know I can simply run "tdbbackup *.tdb", but I was looking for in-depth information on when and how to use it, about best practices on using it, or what NOT to do. The Samba documentations says I should run it in my start/stop

Hello everyone. I'm using SAMBA version 3.0.9-2.3-SUSE as a PDC and internal mail server (few users in user list) for quite some time and so far so good for what i wanted (Domain logins, shares, users files and backups). My problem is when i need to install software or hardware on a machine (client of the domain - Windows XP Pro). As the users don't have administrator priviledges on their
