Re: [Samba] Windows cannot create profile directory

[cut]


I only get this when user a domain user. If I login as an Admin everything
goes fine.


I'm somehow glad I'm not the only one facing that problem.
I had this on my own Win2k SP4 laptop, and I couldn't figure out where
the problem was.

Therefore I set up 2 different test PCs: one with Win2k SP4 + updates
and the other with WinXP SP2 + updates. Guess what? Both work
correctly with LOCAL PROFILES (after having joined my Samba PDC).
Therefore the trouble has to be my Win2k laptop. I just found out that
I could be working around that bug by using the Policies on Win2k
and FORCE it to use local profiles only. Take a look here:

That's what I did, but I don't know wheter to file a bug report to M$
or not! :-)

Re: [Samba] Windows cannot create profile directory

2006-11-01 Thread Boniforti Flavio

2006/11/2, Craig White [EMAIL PROTECTED]:

Generally the 'group' for the 'profile' directory should be set to a
group that all users belong to and if the group has write permissions to
this directory, all is good.


Well, this is how *I* set things up on my PDC, but nevertheless it
still didn't work from the *one and only* Win2k laptop. Instead, it
worked as out-of-the-box with other two PCs, Win2k and WinXP. I
think there is something messed up with the Win2k registry: the client
shouldn't be trying to create a roaming profile while it is by default
set up to *not* use them!

Re: [Samba] Cant login to Samba PDC

2006/10/30, timothy johnson [EMAIL PROTECTED]:

I have a gentoo install, running samba with ldap. I can access the PDC
shares and the auth works fine. I can even add a computer to the domain, but
after I reboot I can login. Something about not being able to fine the
domain. I am not sure where to start looking for the problem. Any Ideas?


First of all: which OS is your client running?
If it's Windows 2k/XP, are you able to select with the drop-down menu
your domain name?

I have tried it on both windows XP Pro, and windows 2k. Yes, it does have
the domain on the drop down menu.


Well, I'm not any kind of Samba-guru, but would you be posting your
smb.conf and maybe some log files? To me, it seems rather a Windoze
issue...

Re: [Samba] Samba Breaks with ACLs

2006-10-30 Thread Boniforti Flavio

2006/10/30, Henrik Zagerholm [EMAIL PROTECTED]:

But you can also take some time and study the ACL support in Samba.
Correctly implemented its a powerful feature.


I'm adding my comment here, as I read you talking about ACL support:
is there any sort of how-to for that ACL implementation?

Regards,
Flavio.

[Samba] PDC: client has profile.pds trouble

2006-10-20 Thread Boniforti Flavio

Hello list.

I just installed and configured my first Samba-3 PDC and I succeeded
immediately with the join operation with a Win2k SP4 client.
As I afterwards rebooted and tried to logon with the domain user, both
root and regular user, I got an error messagge telling me that it was
unable to create \\servername\root\profile.pds.

In fact, my /home/profiles directory remains empty (no user
directories are created at all). Permissions are chmod 1757...

I will really appreciate help on this issue.

BTW: I'm not wanting Roaming Profiles, I will try them after I can
logon to the PDC with local client profiles at first.

Many thanks in advance.

Re: [Samba] PDC: client has profile.pds trouble

2006-10-20 Thread Boniforti Flavio

2006/10/20, Veronica Hill [EMAIL PROTECTED]:

Samba and windows xp has them switched on by default.  IIRC you need to
set a blank config directive for profiles so as not to use them:
logon path =

Try that to switch them off.

or you could could create the profile path anyway..


I didn't know that WinXP has them switched on by default, if the PDC
is Samba. Nonetheless, I'm using Win2k, which doesn't behave any
better.
Actually I have following in my config:

logon home = 
logon path = 

As you suggested to blank the logon path, I did it, removing the
double-quotes.
The result is still the same, no way to log on and no profile is
getting created.

Could you please post me your output of ls -la of one of your
profile directory tree? And, could you tell me whether profile.pds
is a directory or a file?

I manually created /home/profiles/root and in there I created the
directory profile.pds - nothing changed, even as I created an empty
file named profile.pds instead of a directory.

Thanks, again!

[Samba] Samba-2 and ADS: do I need to set up krb?

2004-03-19 Thread Boniforti Flavio
As the subject states... do I have to set up Kerberos while using 
Samba-2 to join an ADS?
I was reading through the docs and got my Samba-2 Linux-box joined to 
ADS (with smbpasswd -j DOM -r SERVER -U Administrator)...

Now, I'd like to be able to assign permissions to the shares of Samba 
with the users of my ADS.

What else do I have to do now?

Thanks...

[Samba] Linux SAMBA and Windows environment

2004-03-18 Thread Boniforti Flavio
OK here we go.

Can anybody help me in putting a Linux-box with SAMBA in a Windows 2000 
ADS environment?

My goal is to have this Linux-box sharing merely a printer and $HOME 
directories.

What I would like to know (and learn) is:

- can I achieve my goal with Samba-2 or should I use Samba-3?
- how may I give permissions on my [printer/file]-share to AD Users?
- is there a precise walk-through which I should follow to get my Samba 
integrated into the actual ADS (Windows 2000 Server)?

Thank you.

Hello all!

Is anybody there who can help me in the task of having my Linux-box

I'm using Fedora Core 1, I've installed samba and krb5-workstation and
