Re: [CentOS-docs] Samba
Hi Everyone, I have a few windows XP professional machine and a inux server running machine with samba, Now, I want to make a centralized XP user's using samba server for user authentication, as we are doing in Active Directory service. In one word I want implement roaming profile. (mean suppose there is user sam, now sam can login from any windows XP machine since samba will manage user informatation and profile along with authentication ) How do I do this? thanks On Mon, Sep 1, 2008 at 1:55 AM, Ralph Angenendt [EMAIL PROTECTED][EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Fabian Arrotin wrote: Hmm, let's coordinate first about Samba .. if there is *one* package that can be configured in multiple ways to do the same thing, that's surely samba ;-) To be honnest, just writing a 'how to create a share on samba' wiki page is not enough (my opinion) .. but explaining how to configure the backend (old smbpasswd, newer tdbsam, or ldap when acting as a pdc), how to integrate in existing Samba/Windows domain/AD , explaining Filesystem ACLs . etc .. is duplicating the official howto ..

Getting deeper into the advanced topics of Samba explaining how to configure the backend (old smbpasswd, newer tdbsam, or ldap when acting as a pdc), how to integrate in existing Samba/Windows domain/AD , explaining Filesystem ACLs seem better suited for samba.org since anyone who wants to implement that really needs intimate knowledge of their environment. I don't think they would want to read a summarized version in a CentOS wiki. Comments? Thanks, -will I agree with your view. I would suggest you get started with a draft and we can all join in and make it most suitable for CentOS users. Akemi Agreed - many hands make light work for a task like this. As a thought - I'm wondering if the topic needs slitting up into multiple sections/pages? Maybe something like: An introduction/overview to samba (users, file permissions etc) Basic samba setup with example (security=share) Group shares with examples (security=user) Printing AD integration etc ... --- How about Security=AD err domain How To; See previous Post on this. JohnStanley --- That seems to me to be the best way. Let's try to put ourselves in the shoes of someone who just tried to set up samba. Ok, he can go to the basic guide that Will writes. (Or anyone--and yeah, those of us using older versions of EMC Celerra at work are stuck on CentOS 4.4--I've lost track, I think it was Will who mentioned they'd overlooked people using older versions, but as we're talking about Samba, it's appropriate. 5.x versions don't work, and I haven't yet tried with later versions of 4.x, though I have to once my current project is done.) Ok, that's the home user. Now come the sysadmins, and for them, something like AD might be important. So, they go to the CentOS wiki, and they see, aha, an AD article. (If anyone is interested, I have my own--though about 96 percent is from the samba wiki--at http://home.nyc.rr.com/computertaijutsu/adsamba.html. ) And so forth--therefore, I think this idea is excellent. I would also make the strong recommendation that EVERY article about samba makes reference to the troubleshooting guides CentOS provides in the /usr/share/doc/ directory--it's also on the samba website at http://us1.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/diagnosis.html That can really be an invaluable resource for all levels of user. That way folks could chip in more easily on the bits they feel able to contribute towards and it needn't seem like a herculean task from the outset. Thoughts?

Primero necesito me indiquen el hardaware necesario para un cluster de alta disponibilidad y balanceo de carga. Segundo las herramientas necesarias para esto Ya he revisado las guías de red hat respecto a la suite, y me gustaría saber de las experiencias de ustedes. Tengo 4 equipos para usarlos en este cluster como no hay más plata no se me ocurre un SAN o algo por el estilo, por lo que la información deber ser compartida entre todos los nodos. En principio es mi primera vez en probar, por lo tanto no tengo ni idea de como empezar.

[CentOS-es] Duda sobre Samba+WINS
Buenas tardes amigos, tengo esta pequeña duda que espero me puedan ayudar a resolver. En un servidor Samba hay unos cuantos usuarios y un par de carpetas compartidas, está configurado con la opción de USER en seguridad, la pregunta es la siguiente: Para habilitarlo como WINS y usarlo con el resto de equipos que no entran a ver las carpetas compartidas, ¿es necesario que esos usuarios extras tengan su usuario y clave en Samba?

[CentOS] How to check for rootkit, troians etc in backed up files?
Hi, there is a remote (VPS) Centos 4.2 server which *may* have been compromised. Reinstalling everything from scratch isn't a problem, it may even be an occasion to improve a few things, the question is another. There are backups of necessary shell script, ASCII configuration files and more or less important email (maildir format, if it matters) including messages with binary attachments in .doc, .pdf, .jpeg and other formats. What is, in the context above, the best way to make sure that **those** backed up files (which _must_ be put back on the server after reinstall) do not contain any rootkit, troian, virus, whatever? Which Centos / linux tool you'd recommend for this specific case?

[CentOS] kickstart problems
Hi I'm having a problem with setting up a kickstart environment based on CentOS 5.2 x86_64, on a Sun X2200 M2 server (both the server and the client in the kickstart environment are Sun X2200 M2 systems): the first attempt to load stage2.img fails with the error screen: unable to retrieve http://192.168.11.10/source/images/stage2.img;. Pressing the OK button brings up the HTTP Setup screen with Website name: 192.168.11.10 and CentOS directory: /source if I press OK it successfully loads stage2.img file and continues with the kickstart installation to a successful completion. I checked the apache logs on 192.168.11.10 and there is no attempt by the client to even load stage2.img before it prompts for the error. Has anyone encounter this problem and has a solution for it? -- ttyl Paolo ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

But keep in mind that many folks (and distros?) believe ed is hopelessly outdated and some even advocate its removal from distributions. Thankfully some other packages(s) depend on it. You would be better off using other techniques, sed, (g)awk, some minor programming language, perl, ... Regardless, you can't do it precisely as you desire do to the nature or ed. It's a pure context-sensitive editor. Fortunately us outdated relics hang together and I can offer a solution. Whether it is acceptable to you is another matter. More discussion below. A script i have parse several files and append text after a specific text is matched. If one file do not have this text, i get a no match and the script terminates. How can I avoid this behavior keeping the original coding style for ed and append text. I have tried tried but still cannot get it correct using (.)a. Is it even possible to do it that way using the (.)a command? You have a basic problem with trying to do it without commands using a range, such as those in your second example. From man ed: DIAGNOSTICS When an error occurs, if ed’s input is from a regular file or here document, then it exits, otherwise it prints a ‘?’ and returns to command mode. An explanation of the last error can be printed with the ‘h’ (help) command. From 1) memory, 2) recent review of man page, there is no way around this. Further, your specification of the file leaves a lot to the imagination. If there are more than 26 instances of addresses you need to add some more to my sample script to remove existing marks, after they are done being used, and mark again. Repeat, rinse until done. If there is more than one occurrence of any pattern, my sample is inadequate, due to the use of marks to get around ed's inability to handle a not-found silently and gracefully. This example will process only the last occurrence. Although ed is very fast, if the target files are large this may be slow due to the repeated traversal of the buffers. With a limit of only 26 items (in my example) this may not be an issue. Once again, you really need to be using some stream processor, as suggested above. Thanks in advance Thomas snip code example in consideration of those with no interest I have attached my example and test cases so those with no interest don't have to read.

Paolo Supino wrote: Has anyone encounter this problem and has a solution for it? Network autoconfiguration failed, most likely there is not a compatible driver for the network card in your system. If there is a driver disk for that NIC you can use that, what I typically have done in the past is build an updated driver from source and insert it into the installation program which is a fairly complicated process involving extracting the initrd, the modules.cgz inside of it, putting the compatible driver built against the same kernel into the modules config and recompressing the modules file, updating the pci device table for the new device, and rebuilding the initrd. Also adding a step in the %post section to install a compatible driver with whatever kernel the installer ends up installing so when the system reboots it has network connectivity. I also repeat the first part of the process where I insert the kernel, again in the stage 2 netinst.img? file(forgot off hand exactly what the file is called), it may not be required for network drivers, but I think it is for storage drivers, I forget, been a while since I had to do it. nate ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

snip 8 floppies. Now that does bring back a memory for me. I was working on a project in Texas. The customer was in Kentucky as I recall. I fixed a problem and gave an 8 floppy to our Shipping department, to send to the customer. The customer called me on the phone, to inform me that the floppy had been bent, so it would fit into the box. As I recall, it did work, after he straightened it out. For the rest of the time that I worked there, I packed things myself, before they were shipped, and that wasn't my job. I couldn't believe someone in the Shipping department was that stupid. Are you kidding? The shipping and the mailroom departments are usually the first place that get their budgets cut.

Re: [CentOS] kickstart problems
Hi Nate Autoconfiguration failure makes sense, but it's not a drivers issue: 1: It's a broadcom tg3 driver that is well supported in the kernel. 2: the kernel fetches successfully the kickstart configuration file I supply it in the command line and 3: After the error comes up I get the HTTP setup configuration screen with the source website (in IP) and CentOS directory as I entered them in the pxeconfiguration file and as it appears in the kickstart configuration file and all I have to do is press the 'OK' button to continue the installation to a successful completion. 4. Sniffing the network showed the following: the kernel fetches the kickstart file, fails to fetch 'product.img' file prints out the error message of being unable to fetch 'stage2.img' file and only when I press the 'OK' button in the HTTP setup window actually contacts the HTTP server and successfully fetches 'stage2.img' file. My guess is that my configuration isn't handled properlly by anaconda, I just need to find out where (or change my configuration so that anaconda will handle it properly). I (out of haste of getting this email out) omitted the configuration files I use in the kickstart configuration.
