Re: [Samba] Windows XP and Samba 2.0.5a

2006-12-13 Thread Jim Shanks 
Updating to a Samba 3 will provide better support for XP clients.

That said, I used 2.2.7 for XP clients for about a year.  All that was
required was setting to 0 (zero) the Windows XP registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Service\Netlogon\Parameters\requiresignorseal

Then Windows XP should authenticate.

i assume you _have_ to use ancient software - production server, right?
Debian is "bleeding edge" compared to this ;-)

Like Volker said, don't expect more than basic functionality. Copying
files to a Samba server should work. Even your neighbours from Redmond
know about backwards compatibility.

I think you should give it a try. A basic samba installation is set up
in minutes and deleted even faster!

I don't think anybody will give you a definitive answer on
this one, you will just have to try. You will most
definitely not get all the functionality you might get from
a recent version. It should be possible to compile 3.0.23d
even on a 2.0.36 Linux kernel. Maybe not directly, it might
require some tweaks.
