Hi

I have a Samba4 DC (hh30.hh3.site, 192.168.1.30) and a Samba3 VM on
the same box (hh33.hh3.site, 192.168.1.33).

How do I tell XP and 7 clients to look at the S4 DC for authentication
and the S3 fileserver for files?

It already does the authentication bit OK. It's mainly the second part
of the question as to how to instruct the m$ boxes to look at the
file-server rather than the DC for files.

Cheers,

Hi,

It depends on what you mean by having to look at.

On way is to write some logon scripts, by which they would map the
shares as drives (of course that suppose to have the Samba3 boxes joined
to the AD of Samba4). If you intend to share some home directories, then
create the home share on Samba3 and specify the homepath for each user
as \\samba3servershostname\%USERNAME% and a homedrive according to your
taste (I had chosen U: (about 10 years ago (Samba 2.2.something))). If
you want to redirect some folders (e.g. Documents, Desktop, etc.) you
can do that by firing up the group policy editor and specifying the
redirects there.

Hi Geza
Thanks for the clue.

I specified
homeDrive: Z:
homeDirectory: \\hh32\home\user
profilePath: \\hh32\profiles\user

Is that what you mean? If so, it works.

That's great for users, but Administrator can't access the shares. He always gets a logon prompt. Even with the correct username and password he still cannot access any share on \\hh32

Anyway, great news for the users. Need to get Administrator sorted out.
Cheers and thanks again,
Steve


Could this be that Administrator is not a member of the groups that are allowed access?
