Re: [Samba] Netbios over VPN
did you have the dns service enabled? 2012/7/5 Andrew Mark andr...@aimsystems.ca: I am attempting to utilize BackupPC on a Fedora 14 server to backup a remote client. As I understand, it's primary mechanism for finding clients is performing a nmblookup clientname This works fine for computers connected to the local network. My issue is extending ?Samba's? search to encompass our other network - the point-to-point VPNs Using OpenVPN, we have a number of road warriors who connect their VPN to gain access to the samba server. Each has a unique static IP address in the 10.30.251 range and when connected, I can find them but not samba i.e. # ping john_laptop --- john.inspirah.com ping statistics --- 3 packets transmitted, 3 received, 0% packet loss, time 2001ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 9.900/14.764/24.388/6.805 ms # nmblookup john_laptop querying john_laptop on 127.255.255.255 querying john_laptop on 10.30.7.255 name_query failed to find name john_laptop How to I configure Samba or whatever Linux service is necessary to query the 10.30.251.255 network as well -- Cheers, Andrew Mark | Development Analyst | www.aimsystems.ca local: 519-837-1072 | fax: 519-837-4063 | int'l 800-465-2961 12-350 Speedvale Ave. W. | Guelph, ON | N1H 7M7 | Canada -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
[Samba] is possible change the PDC IP address without damage the domain?
Hi. I have a virtualized PDC, and now i need asign a dedicated server to that service. The problem is: the IP on the virtualized server dont use the same range of the local network. To add the new PDC server, we need use an IP on the same local network, but i dont know how can affect that the existent domain. Actual PDC IP. 10.0.0.2 Local Network : 192.168.12.0/24. access to the domain server using the GW 192.168.12.2 now i need assign to the new PDC server the IP 192.168.12.10, but continue using the same domain. Is that possible? thanks and regards. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
Re: [Samba] is possible change the PDC IP address without damage the domain?
2011/3/10 John Drescher dresche...@gmail.com Yes. Just make the change. If you use a DNS server make sure you update the pdc records in that. John I have the dns updating dinamically with the dhcp, including the PTR registers. the trust relationship can be affected changing the IP? (i have stations with windows XP and 7) thanks and regards. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
[Samba] Windows7 roaming user profile can loose parameters after reboot samba server?
Hi. I have a xen virtualized samba server. Today i was experiment a very strange situation. Practically all the stations are windows XP. Some station are vista or 7, but they are not connected to the domain yet. I have just 1 win7 logged on the domain, and today, after restart the samba server, the station cant load the apps correctly. We use roaming users and use a centraliced access application shared by samba in a public folder, and all the others clients work today without problems; only the win7 start with problems (apparenlty is requesting some dll files). If we start local session in the win7 station with the local admin user, work perfectly; but wf try to access with the domain user, present errors. I give to the domain users all the local permission (is a local administrator), but the problem continue. I dont make any change in the samba conf or any server configuration. Just restart the samba server, because was added more ram. The win7 station was worked correctly with the domain user before reboot the server; After that, is presenting problems. Why can happen that? win7 store some cached configuration in the samba server? Im very confused. Thanks in advance.

[Samba] strange performance some times
Hi I have a samba server (3.4.3-2 lenny version). This server is a PDC with roaming profiles. was migrated from an old woody server. Some times, all the users report me low performance when run an app shared on a public folder. The app is an access database. Some times work very fast, some times work very slow. how can i detect the reason of the low performance? the cpu, memory process and swap usage is always minimal. Never show heavy process. This is a virtualized server (i use Xen). The virtualization can affect the samba performance? the virtual server has four times more resources than the old server. thanks and regards.

[Samba] deny access to stations

I have a PDC on Lenny. is possible deny the access from the station to the others station over the network?, or only permit the network access to the admin users to the stations? thanks and regards. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
[Samba] local admin rights for roaming profiles
Hi. I have a samba server designed to PDC on my network. The roaming profiles is enabled and work fine. But some apps used from the samba server share, apparently need to the user in the station have admin privileges. Im enabling in the station (XP or Win7) the admin privileges to the station asigned user (DOMAIN\user) but in that case, the roaming profile is not a complete solution, because is necesary modify the local permission. Any user can access on any station, and the user profile is loaded correctly; but that admin privileges requirements affect the dalily work, because is for an internal apps. The another reason is to i dont wanna give local admin privileges to all the users! (some users are extremly dangerous with local admin permissions). how can i provide that admin privileges only to access the app shared on \\SAMBASERVER\shared . Thanks in advance. regards -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
