RE: [Samba] Samba & Active Directory - Login from non Domain Machine
Just in case anyone is interested, this was a simple case of case sensitivity of the username. The domain name needed to be in uppercase, so the login had to be: DOMAINNAME\username And then everything worked fine. I think windows might automatically use uppercase for domain names. You can check the log to see what it is using on a valid user. There are also options you can put in your config file to make thing case insensitive if you want but I am not familiar with them yet. Sorry if everyone know this, but I am still new to Samba.

[Samba] My Documents Folder Redirection to Samba Share
Does anyone know how to setup the smb.conf file for the my document folder redirection in windows. If I point it to a root share, with a Microsoft file server, it will automatically create a folder for each user with a my documents folder under that. How can I get that to happen with a samba share. Using Debian Etch and Samba 3.0.24 and fairly new to samba. The default smb.conf makes mention of %S but also says that it would need to be tweaked if using different auth schemes. I am using ads with winbind with AD2003. Everything else works fine.

[Samba] Group Polic Software Install Packages located on SAMBA share
Hi All, I am running debian etch and samba 3.0.24. I have it configured to for krb5, winbind, and ads. Everything is working perfect as far as accessing shares, authentication using AD logins. I have one issue. I have some computer group policies on my AD server to do various software installs. The msi and files themselves are hosted on a share on my samba server. The software installs happen when windows is first loading before the login prompt is presented and the user logs in. The software installs always fail saying it cannot access the files. My thoughts are that since the user has not logged in yet, that the samba server doesn't not how to authenticate the machine to access to files. Has anyone had experience with this issues? Anyone installed software through group policy and hosting that msi's on a samba share? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[Samba] ADS WINBIND WIN2K3 usernames with dots
I am new to this list and fairly new to samba. I am running samba 3.0.24 on debian etch with winbind and krb5 in ads security mode. Everything appears to be working perfectly. I can see users and groups with wbinfo and getent. I can even access shares I setup using the domain admin account from the w2k3 ad infrastructure. The problem is all our username in ad have dots (except the admin). So the usernames are [EMAIL PROTECTED] When I try and "set valid users = WORKGROUP\firstname.lastname" in smb.conf, I am unable to connect to the share from another machine. If I use a username without dots (and I created a few test ones to try) and set "valid users = WORKGROUP\username" in smb.conf then I can get into the share no problem. How can I get my usernames with dots to work correctly with samba?
