no


2.  I installed NetBeui and was able to ping the SAMBA PDC with its
NetBios name, without NetBeui I can only ping the IP but without the
NetBios name.
3.  I can also ping from Samba PDC the WinXP machine.
4.  I’ve already disabled the WinXP Personal Firewall Settings.
5.  The WinXP in the laptop is freshly installed with the default
workgroup membership as “WORKGROUP”


you have to tell windows that it belongs to a domain now. I have no  
windows machine here, but it should be something like this: right  
click on my computer, properties, computer name. then click on  
change, select domain and enter your new workgroup name and hit  
enter. The windows will ask a password, here it wants a Admin user  
from your samba PDC!



6.  The Samba PDC is supposedly be the Authentication, File and Print
server.


you will also need cups if you want to print.


7.  Pag nag “testparm” ako lahat naman ok at running


ehm... I don't understand this


8.  Am I missing something?



just try and see if it works :)

[Samba] Two PDC in one Network (NT4 + Samba 3)

2007-05-07 Thread Cristian Livadaru
I have installed a Samba 3 server to run as PDC in parallel with the  
old NT4 server.

They both use different Domain names and netbios names.
the NT server uses NT-SERVER as netbios name and INTERFACE as workgroup.
The new Samba server uses IFDOMAIN both as workgroup and netbios name.
When I try a smbclient -L //IFDOMAIN/ it's not working

read_socket_with_timeout: timeout read. read error = Connection reset  
by peer.

protocol negotiation failed

when I turn the NT server off and try it again, then it works.
I don't quite understand why since they shouldn't have any problems  
because of the differing names but unfortunately it seems that it  
does bother somehow.


Is there a way to have the old NT server also running until all users  
are moved to the new server?



Regards, Cristian Livadaru

[Samba] Big problem with Profiles being deleted

2007-04-20 Thread Cristian Livadaru

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Please, help :) Something is driving me mad!

I have just replaced a NT4 PDC with a Samba 3 PDC, migrated the users  
and everything works fine except of two problems


first, the big problem.
A user can sign in just fine on winXP or Win 2000 and the profile is  
being downloaded from the samba PDC, but as soon as the users logs  
out the profile is being deleted on the windows machine. I have no  
clue why it is doing this!


the second problem, the XP machines take much longer then the Win2000  
machines on the NT4 server the signon is quite fast. After it copies  
the profile (no action on disk anymore) the XP machines are doing  
something, no idea what it is doing, but it does it for quite a while  
and it just displays the screen after the loginpromt Userdate is  
being... not 100% sure how the messages look on a english windows.


Hope my mail is readable, almost didn't sleep 24 hours, so sorry if  
there are a lot of typos.

[Samba] printing on windows domain printer

2003-01-21 Thread Cristian Livadaru
Hi,
I have set up a red hat linux box and used winbind to connect it to 
the existing windows NT domain of our company.
well everything works fine, user can log in and mkhomedir creates a home directory at 
the first login.

but I still have one problem
how can I manage it that the user can print something useing his own username
and password.
at the moment I have set up the printer to use the windows share
but the problem is that now everybody that prints something from the linux box
prints with my name.
at the moment only 2 people are using the linux box but if all developers 
will use it in the future it will be a bit complicated to find his print outs
if every print has my name on it.

hope you understand my problem and have any tips/doc's/howtos or anything for 
me.

thx. Cris
