similar to: unable to join XP/Vista to domain

I'm trying to join an XP SP2 PC called testpc to a test environment. Its network settings are statically set. IP address is 10.8.3.209. I have a PDC called gomer.mdah.state.ms.us w/ samba 3.0.26a and IP address is 10.8.3.37. On test PC I right click on my computer, properties, computer name, change from workgroup WORKGROUP to domain ADAMSTEST. But I get the error: Note: This information

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]

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

I have a PDC named GOMER with IP 10.8.3.37 and a BDC named BLDG1 with IP 10.8.3.231, both in the domain ADAMSTEST. I have a user testuser who logged in successfully to GOMER and has a roaming profile in /var/lib/samba/profiles/testuser. So I changed the TCP/IP settings of the windows XP computer testuser uses from the WINS server of 10.8.3.37 to 10.8.3.231 so it would use BLDG1 for

On my server, I have root in LDAP, and am following the Samba3 by example book, but I'm unable to get it to join the domain. I'm running samba 3.0.25b.

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

Hello, I did the steps described below and I have a problem with machine RIDs. When I first join a machine, samba adds to my sambaDomainName ldap entry a sambaNextRid attribute with a value of 1000. Now samba uses this value (incremented each time) to give its RID to the machine. This is going to be a real problem as my current samba computes RDIs as 1000+2*UID. FWIW I'm using

Back in January we upgraded/moved our domain from an old install of samba and openldap to a newer version (samba 3.5.10 and openldap 2.4.23) while also moving our domain to a new name. On the old domain, which was setup before I got here, our IT section was in an ldap group that allowed us to join PC's to the domain and when the prompt came up in windows to install software we could log in as

I have a domain controller called preshs. I have a few Windows XP computers using linksys wireless cards and a wireless access point that all connect to preshs. The network works fine. Logging in produces no errors, however when a person logs out of an XP machine they get the following error: Windows cannot copy file C:\Documents and Settings\awilliam\Cookies\index.dat to location

Hello List, I have tried to grant SeMachineAccountPrivilege to an extra group. Users in this group should not have Admin rights but they should be able to join workstations to the domain. My first try was to grant the right to a single user wich is working as expected. net rpc rights grant "TOPTEST\toptest.r" SeMachineAccountPrivilege -U domainadmin net rpc rights shows:

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

I have a PC running XP that several users share. I've logged in as them on it and right clicked on my documents and redirected it for each person to r:\my documents so that their roaming profiles will load faster. I've ran into a problem that when anyone logs out on this PC, XP attempts to synchronize my documents of everyone that has logged into that PC with folder redirection.

I created a group in ldap: dn: cn=web,ou=Group,dc=mdah,dc=state,dc=ms,dc=us objectClass: posixGroup objectClass: top cn: web userPassword:: xxxxxxxxxx memberUid: akazery memberUid: dhglover memberUid: cgoodwin memberUid: mglover memberUid: jlongmire memberUid: awilliam gidNumber: 1010 and ran: net groupmap add rid=3021 ntgroup="Website" unixgroup=web type=d and in smb.conf had:

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

hello, Preparing my first klibc maintainenace release. :) My plan is to have the patches cook in klibc-queue and once everythings is fine deploy them in the main klibc repo. Please test/review belows patches. I plan to release the current queue really soon for klibc 1.5.20 due to the urgent ipconfig fixes. For now you find my patch queue on:

The ipconfig code does not drop incoming packets that it can't handle. Since the packet socket sends ipconfig its own broadcast requests, ipconfig has the unfortunate behaviour of eating 100% of the CPU time when it does not receive an immediate response to its outgoing requests. This patch fixes the problem, by ensuring that packets are dropped if they are not handled. It also introduces a
