[Samba] Switching form NT PDC to AD
I set up a test machine running Red Hat 5.2 and samba version 3.0.28. We have a unix server sharing out a file system. The windows users accessed the file system via Samba and as they all had unix accounts they were just mapped to their UNIX id. As long as we had groups with the same name, the groups were mapp... 19 Jun 2008 01:20

[Samba] Samba and Win98
I have a friend that had a samba server go down. They switched to another server and are having problems with people logging into it from Windows 98.

MBoyle@ttcdas.com - Email found in subject - RE: [Samba] Files over 4GB not listing properly. Cannot getCIFSworking.

So far, I've set dev_t to be a u_qu... 7 May 2008 09:20

[Samba] Can't get 3.0.23d from SuSE RPM to be a member in an NT4 domain
Been working with Samba back to 1.9 or so, but this is the first time I've tried to set it up as a domain member server. I followed (I think) the instructions on how to do this in TOSHARG (which are about as disjointed as the book, which I took back), but I continue to be unable to get the box, running winbind, t... 6 May 2008 23:27
