RE: [Samba] password strength
If you are using PAM in your setup, http://samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/pam.html You might want to look into passwdqc pam module which gives similar password restrictions as on windows domains.

[Samba] PAM authentication to Active Directory
Hello list, I want to authenticate (only authenticate) through active directory with PAM. I googled around and everything I found, wheter it is forum posts or howtos, it always talks about winbind and joining the linux machine to the windows domain. I do not which to do this, I only want to get PAM to authenticate with the AD and then everything else is local. Should I use pam_winbind ? pam_ntdom ? Some help/hints would be greatly appreciated.

RE: [Samba] AutoCad and ArcView
1. Are the files constantly accessed by the applications ( like an excel file opened on a share ) ? 2. What RAID settings does your controller support other than 5? I know IBM servers use 5E, 5EE and 1E which are a little more interesting than plain 5 A raid 10 could be interesting too for file serving where writes are as common as reads. > -Original Message- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On > Behalf Of James McLaughlin > Sent: Wednesday, November 15, 2006 11:31 AM > To: samba@lists.samba.org > Subject: [Samba] AutoCad and ArcView > > Hello all, > > Just curious if anyone else has a SAMBA server that is serving up > AutoCad and ArcView files to users on Windows. > > We are utilizing a RAID 5 setup on dual 2.8 GHZ > 4 GB RAM > Intel Controller card (all latest firmware, BIOS etc...etc..) > > Only 4 users are accessing the server, but it seems after a > few days the > server starts to choke up, lock files, and it causes a hardware issue. > (We have burned through 2 320GB drives in 2 months) > > It is possible of course that the controller card is failing, but to > take some of the stress off of the machine does anyone have a tweaked > smb.conf that has NO issues with serving up files of this size all day > (80-200MB) > > Thanks in advance > -- > James C.
