Hi everybody, after many weeks of searching/trying, I still can't manage to get vista to use/save roaming profiles with samba as PDC... It has apparently worked a few times in the beginning since the profiles directories are populated. Could it be related to a Vista update or SP1? Here's what I did so far: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\System]

My Windows XP SP3 clients aren't loading their logged_in_username.bat from my netlogon share, and I can't figure out why. It looks like in the log file the Windows PCs are loading the script, its just not executing it on the windows PCs for some reason, but if I click start, run, and type in \\roark\netlogon\scripts\jholland.bat it runs fine. Running samba 3.0.31 and here's the

I had previously tried to migrate our PDC to a new machine by simply copying the config over and such. That failed miserably but luckily the various home servers (BDC's in samba speak I think) took up the slack. So after much debate, this weekend we moved the PDC back to the original machine. We never moved LDAP off of the original machine, as only samba functions moved. I now know I did

I have a server roark (fedora core 5 with samba 3.0.23a-1.fc4.1) with a home directory awilliam. I'm trying to mount it on my linux workstation (fedora core 5, samba 3.0.23a-1.fc5.1). On my workstation I do: mount -t cifs "//roark/awilliam" /mnt/roark-awilliam/ -o username=awilliam,password=xxxxxx and when I cd to /mnt/roark-awilliam, ls works, but if I cat a file I get the

When I do net groupmap add rid=514 ntgroup="Domain Guests" unixgroup=nobody type=d and then try to connect to a share called share which only allows guest connections with the following permissions: [global] guest account = nobody map to guest = bad user map to guest = bad password [share] path = /samba/admin force directory mode = 777

I am having a problem getting users that were added in smbldap-useradd to be able to login. After I add them they are visible, but you can see I get this error - pdb_get_group_sid: Failed to find Unix account for test10 I believe that this has something to do with nss_ldap. because doing a getent passwd, it doesn't display any smb info. Any debugging info or help would be amazing, I'm

Dear Michael, I just have the same problem you have with samba 2.2.3a on a Suse 8.0 machine and win xp pro. Besides I performed all the steps below. >From my postings I learned that the prob might have something to do with a wrong mapping in smbusers file. It seems to me that the workstation account is mapped to user nobody. Up to now I was not able to solve the prob. Do you have any ideas

Hello all, We have just concluded a very drawn out test of our domain that is having some trust relationship problems with Windows 7 desktops. Here is a breakdown of our setup: roark PDC running samba 3.4.7 (also has OpenLDAP) on VLAN 2 archives3 BDC running samba 3.4.7 (also has OpenLDAP) on VLAN2 arrowhead BDC "home server" running samba 3.4.3 on VLAN 9 archives4 BDC

I added myself into OpenLDAP and deleted my user account from /etc/passwd. Now samba complains in the log file: Jan 25 10:17:56 roark smbd[2767]: build_sam_account: smbpasswd database is corrupt! username awilliam with uid 511 is not in unix passwd database! however, I'm resolving my awilliam with nss_ldap, so I can ssh and su -l awilliam fine. so shouldn't samba be able to get

Is it possible to have multiple domains and all of them authenticate to one PDC running openldap? Each building at work has a network segment, 10.8.1.x - 10.8.18.x, each having their own samba server using smbpasswd and DOMAIN name. Like the server arrowhead 10.8.9.2 has domain = HPADMIN in smb.conf, server archives 10.8.8.2 has domain = OLDCAPITOL in smb.conf, roark 10.8.2.3 has domain =

Using Seamonkey as my email client, and IMAP to check mail. If I create a new IMAP folder, and then delete it, I get the error: The current command did not succeed. The mail server responded: Target mailbox doesn't allow inferior mailboxes. Tried a google search, didn't really come up with anything. I have rw permissions on /home/awilliam/Mail/* and delete the files fine using rm

I have read over the lists and search the web, I know this question has been asked before, but I've not been able to fix my problem so I'll ask here. I have been successful in joining the XP machine to the domain however it when I try to login to the domain windows instantly kicks up the message: "Windows cannot connect to the domain, either because the domaincontroller is down or

I'd report this to Ubuntu as a kernel bug to see if this is an issue specific to that kernel version, but it might also be worth running a

I have 2 samba servers, archives3 (10.8.2.2) and roark (10.8.2.3). roark is the domain master. Users on roark are in /etc/samba/smbpasswd. I'd like the users on roark to access a share on archives3 (\\archives3\pubinfo). How can I have archives3 authenticate the users against the users in smbpasswd on roark?

Greetings All, I have a Samba-controlled domain, with everything in LDAP. I also have an off-site server that I rsync all our files to every couple hours. What I'd like to do is set up a new Samba domain on the off-site server so users can log into it for disaster recovery purposes - and I'd like to keep the user account information synchronized with the main server so user's

I am about to be migrating mail servers and have a few questions.

The user had forgotten that he had renamed his "Grants Active \ European" (.Grants Active.European) folder to "Grants Active \ International" (.Grants Active.International), he thought that

I want to make a subfolder read only for certain users. for example: /data/pool is public rwx for all users. and now i would like to make a /data/pool/subfolder only rwx for user1 and grant read only permissions to user2 and user3 how do i do this? any links or direct tips on that? my suggestion would be something like this, but as you can imagine it didn't work: # The general datapool

I've taken over administration of 25 XP computers that connect to a samba server (arrowhead). I need the to connect to a share on another samba server (roark) as guest. On the XP computers when i do \\roark\share or \\arrowhead\share it asks for a username and password, but it doesn't have the checkbox to save the username and password. All of the XP computers and samba servers use
