[Samba] Can Samba be installed on Windows 2000
Hello, Can Samba be installed on a Windows 2000 machine (then create a share) so that on the Unix side you can mount the share thats been created (the opposite of installing Samba on Unix and then mapping a drive on a Windows 2000 machine to a Unix share)? I don't need to do this, i was just wondering. ^**^ This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.

[Samba] Samba share query
Hello Dominic, thanks for your reply, I've now got a good fix for my problem (after hours of trial and error). I coded the following in my smb.conf file :- [global] ... hosts allow = oplocks = Yes security = share [ts] comment = Tech support directory path = /information guest ok = yes guest only = yes browsable = no read only = yes force user = %U I created a Unix user with the same name as my network login as well as creating the user in the smbpasswd file. I can now map a drive to the ts share without being prompted for a password, if another network user tries to map a drive to the share and they have not been created as a Unix/Samba user they get an error. This is just what i want. If i've only got say Samba users user1, user2 and user3 set up on the Unix side then only these can map a drive without being prompted for a password. I set browsable = no just for extra security. ^**^ This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.

[Samba] Samba share query
Hello, I've coded the following in our smb.conf file (security = share coded in the [global] section) and this works fine where users can access the share without a password :- [ts] comment = Tech support directory path = /information guest only = Yes guest ok = Yes guest account = nobody writable = no browsable = no Is it possible somehow to restrict access to this share to say three users only (say tom, dick and harry) but still allowing the three users to logon without a password being prompted for? The above share works fine but i don't want everyone to access it, say just three certain users. I'm running Samba versions 3.0.14a and 2.0.5.a both on Sun Solaris8 Unix systems.

[Samba] Windows users that have a space character
Hello, Our site has implemented network login user ID's that now include a space, for example "fred smith". Can Samba support this? Our current Samba release is 2.0.5a but doesn't seem to like users with a space character? Thanks.

[Samba] Password query
Hello, I'm getting a password error when i do CTRL/ALT and DELETE on my PC, select Change Password and enter my network id, the samba domain and the old/new passwords. The error is "Unable to change the password on this account (c0BE). Please consult your system administrator.". I was able to change my samba password a short while ago but for some reason i'm getting this error. We've installed samba on a Sun solaris unix box (Solaris 8) and the samba version is 2.0.5a. I can change my network login password ok by selecting the domain that controls the NT users and passwords. Not sure if this error is something to do with samba on the unix server or something to do with the NT side of things. On the unix side there's nothing shown in the two samba logs (log.nmb and log.smb). Also nothing has changed on samba since it last worked.

[Samba] Synchronising NT, unix and Samba passwords
Our Samba is working perfect except that when a users NT password expires and the user changes it they can't access the share anymore from Windows NT explorer. At the moment i have to log on to our unix system and change the unix and samba passwords manually to match the new NT password. I've been looking through all the websites on Samba but nothing has helped. I've done all sorts of amendments to the smb.conf file (including setting encrypt passwords = yes, security = user and update encryted = yes). Should the unix and samba passwords be automatically updated or i'm i trying to do something that you can't do. We're using NT4 and Unix (Sun Solaris 8). The Samba version is 2.0.5a. I'm implementing a way around this by allowing the users to log into the unix system to change their Unix/Samba passwords. I've amended their .profile to include commands "passwd" and "/usr/local/samba/bin/smbpasswd" (and "exit" to log them out after).

[Samba] Looking for samba software
I'd like to install Samba on A Solaris 5.8 (Sparc) unix platform but can't find any download for this. All i can find on the websites are downloads for earlier versions of Solaris (2.5 to 2.8 etc). I've seen a file called samba-latest.tar.gz but not sure if this is ok.
