[Samba] Copying/migrating profiles

2005-02-19 Thread Colin E. McDonald
Specs:

RHEL 3 with samba-3.0.7-1.3E.1

Server is configured to be a PDC in domain

 

 

We are in the process of joining standalone Windows 2K Pro and Windows
XP Pro machines to the domain.

 

Once the computer is joined to the domain we have a new profile under
Documents and Settings. What is the best way to copy or get the original
user profile without having to manually copy all of the contents of the
original profile?

 

TIA

[Samba] Copying user profiles from standalone workstation to new domain profile

2005-02-17 Thread Colin E. McDonald
Hi all.

 

I am changing from standalone workstations to domain accounts under a
Samba PDC.

 

What is the best practice or suggested method for copying the default
standalone user profile to the new profile created after the machine
joins the domain? 

 

Thanks in advance

[Samba] smbpasswd -a -s /add smbuser via bash script

2005-01-13 Thread Colin E. McDonald
I have a script that used to work fine under Samba 2.2.7a.
 
I would pass the username and password to smbpasswd -a -s $user $password and 
it worked fine.
 
Now it isnt working with 3.07. 
 
Has anyone run into this?
 
It looks like I could pass the password variable to the command twice (password 
entry and confirmation) but i am not sure how to do this via bash (how to make 
the variable look like it came from stdin.
 
Thanks for any assistance
