I'll test that configuration next time when I'm allowed to stop the relevant bureau-net. But I found a different solution: setting "oplock = Yes" on the share worked. It looked as if my samba installation couldn't handle this "opportunistic locking" thing the w2k clients required (even though "man smb.conf" said it was turned on by default). I had to enable it on the share. Now the M$ Word problem is gone. I found some hints about that problem (via the Samba HowTo) in the MS knowledge-base: About XP Problems and oplocking: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;812937 About "opportunistic locking" in general: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;296264 First time that an MS help was of some use.. > As a return favour - have you got add user script/add group script etc > working properly yet?

Apparently Samba adds the user to the group later: - set primary group script = /usr/sbin/usermod -g "%g" "%u" Giving passwords to users only worked after I adapted the "passwd chat" to the Debian passwd program: - passwd chat = "*new*password*" %n\\n "*new*password*" %n\\n "*updated*" New compis are added to the group "nogroup" in my config: - add machine script = /usr/sbin/useradd -d /dev/null -s /bin/false -c "DomainMachines" -g nogroup "%u" And (nearly) finally all that only worked after I did set the rights right: Groupmapping: see above smb.conf: see above and " valid users = +root, +domuser, +nogroup" Really finally: That's with Debian 3.0 and the Debian Samba package 3.0.1-2 Don't know if that helps, but I hope regards Alexander -- ------------------------------------------- agoeres _at_ lieblinx.net tel.: +49 (0)30 / 61 20 26 87 fax: +49 (0)30 / 61 20 26 89 ------------------------------------------- lieblinxNET we do software a Marwood & Thiele GbR ------------------------------------------- reichenberger straße 125 10999 Berlin http://lieblinx.net ------------------------------------------- -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
