Ah ha... I was browsing through the Globals in SWAT and came across the Time Server = yes option. But, can't figure out how to get my W2K clients to sync to it (other than DOS.. net time \\server /SET ). Any ideas ? Thanks Mike --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti

Re: [Samba] Upgraded to 3.0.2a but...

Thanks again Daniel, Yes, I edited rc.samba to point to the new files, still told me I was running 2.2.8a ! I didn't know there was a "make uninstall", I'll run that now. I'll read through the configure file to see if I can modify it myself (I suppose I could compare it to the configure file ori

Re: [Samba] Upgraded to 3.0.2a but...

Thanks Daniel, Seems that the 3.0.2a installation put most of the files in different directories from the original 2.2.8a (which came bundled with this slackware 8). The rc.samba file would not start nmbd or smbd and I couldn't manually start them from anywhere except when I went right into the /

[Samba] Upgraded to 3.0.2a but...

Hi folks :-) I've just downloaded Samba 3.0.2a, run ./configure , make and make install. All seemed to go OK but my system still appears to be running the previous 2.2.8a version. New installation seems to have placed smbd, nmbd and swat into /usr/local/samba/sbin (older ver was in /usr/sbin) so

[Samba] couldn't find service ?!

Re: [Samba] Automatic SAMBA user creation from UNIX

I _think_ you can do it by pointing Samba at the Unix password shadow file... something like In your smb.conf: update encrypted = Yes smb passwd file = /etc/shadow unix password sync = Yes Mike - Original Message - From: "carmoda" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL

Re: [Samba] limitation in the homes share

Ah, this is something I needed to set up on my system. I created another share "Private" which is /home and allowed access to myself and one other staff member so we can inspect user's directories and also backup the entire /home directory and all subdirectories. Here's the section from my smb.c

[Samba] Stopping new directory creation ?

Hi, I've been looking for a way to stop users creating new sub-directories under a top level (shared) directory - which will need to contain 3 readymade directories and/or to stop users placing files outside the 3 readymade directories. Is this at all possible ? Got a really basic system - Slackw
