[Samba] mapping accountnames and SID's error in winxp sp1
Hi all, I am trying to set up a samba pdc with several win95 and winxp sp1 pc's connecting to it. I've used the samba-ldap-pdc howto with samba 2.2.7 and as far as i know i am all settled. Still i get a message when really connecting to the domain instead of shares from winxp (no problems in win95) that tells me that it can't map the accountnames to the security-id's or something like it (I had to translate it from dutch to english). Authentication is ok, I can access shares in xp (can this be turned off as in domain logon only, or will I get problems with win95 then?), but when i try to do domain logons I get the previously mentioned message. Seems like I have missed a step. Had done the registry editing signorseal and have set up groups in ldap and they're working in linux. I have assigned the users to the group: Domain Users still it ain't working. Where did i get stupid (probably 27 years ago or something :))?

RE: [Samba] libnss on solaris
Hello, have you ever made nss_wins work on solaris ? No. But others have. This WINS support library was built on Solaris. could you please give me a contact to such a person ? from nsswitch/README: This extension provides a wins module for NSS on glibc2/Linux. Make sure that you rename nss_wins.so to libnss_wins.so and set links accordingly. I did, as I wrote in previous email. Also, please check Solaris documentation to find how to bind dynamic link libaries so that solaris can find them. Do you have an /etc/ld.so.conf file? Maybe it is in /etc/system.{cnf,conf}. I used to run Solaris X86 and vaguely remember a file like it. i checked the docs and without any tweaking libraries are searched for in /usr/lib. you can change it with crle command, but in this case i dont think it needs any changes. Also, what happens it you have in your /etc/nsswitch.conf? hosts: wins dns file, ie: wins first. i tried even hosts: wins only, with no luck :( Please show command failure output. bash-2.05# ping cww ping: unknown host cww i have also ran snoop (sun's network sniffer) and if i do a ping i cant see any broadcasts nor wins traffic... so i guess that nss library is not even touched :( how can i debug it ? truss doesnt show anything useful :| i need it badly, terry -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
[Samba] system error 64, win xp and samba
Just so that it gets into the archives for future googlers: If you get 'system error 64' on a windows xp machine trying to connect to samba, then make sure you have nothing running on port 445. I had an apache ssl instance running on that port. Doh! Had to scratch my head a bit over it. XP doesn't actually need anything to be on 445, it just gets confused and gives up if there is.

[Samba] Problem authenticating against a W2K server
Hi there. I'm having a problem letting a Samba server (MYSAMBA) authenticate users (using security = domain and a password server = MYPDC) against a Windows 2000 PDC (MYPDC). The Windows 2000 machine seems (I'm not 100% sure about this) to be configured to restrict anonymous and it seems to me that this is where the problem lies but don't know what to do. I joined the MYDOMAIN domain by first confirming that MYSAMBA was not already a member of the domain. Then I issued the following command: smbpasswd -j MYDOMAIN -r MYPDC -U Administrator And the Windows administrator typed in the password. The command responded that I had joined the domain and a secrets.tdb file got created in the /etc/samba directory. We confirmed on the Windows side that the machine was now a member of the domain. So.. anyone have some pointers for me? Below are some more information about my setup and the errors I get. Hope it's not too much or too irrelevant. :-) This is what I get if I try to connect to a share on MYSAMBA from a Linux client (MYCLIENT): [username@MYCLIENT]$ smbclient //MYSAMBA/tmp -U username -W MYDOMAIN added interface ip=10.10.20.42 bcast=10.10.20.255 nmask=255.255.255.0 Password:- Here I typed in the password, not empty password session setup failed: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE [username@MYCLIENT]$ And I get this in the /var/log/samba/10.10.20.42.log file: [2002/11/28 09:39:53, 0] smbd/password.c:connect_to_domain_password_server(1335) connect_to_domain_password_server: machine MYPDC rejected the tconX on the IPC$ share.

Re: [Samba] Cups
Perhaps you are using an older version of cups (1.1.15 or earlier). In this versions the daemon puts itself to background before having loaded all printers (including ppds, filters...). This leads to the situation, that samba may request the list of printers before cups is ready to serve it. That's the reason, why samba gets the list after a restart. Solution: wait a little time after cups has been started or (better) use a current release of cups (1.1.16 or cvs). bye On Thursday 28 November 2002 11:22, Simon Chappell wrote: Can anyone advise how to get Cups to survive a reboot with samba.

[Samba] Connection failed with smbclient
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Folks, I looked through the archives, but didn't see anything like this. I have a network with a mix of Win95, Win98, and WinME clients (and one Linux system w/ Samba server version 2.2.2). All systems belong to a workgroup called Oteima. All Win95 and Win98 clients see all other systems (including the Linux box) in one list. However, a couple of systems (notably the WinME systems) see _two_ Oteima workgroups. Problem is, the Samba server, using nmblookup can find _all_ systems, but using smbclient can only connect to the Windoze systems listed in one Oteima workgroup, but get a connection failed when trying to connect to systems in the other Oteima workgroup. I very methodically checked using nmblookup and sbmclient whether I could see/connect to every system.

Hi, I'm having problems with M$ Office files on an samba mounted fs. Here's the deal. Server A is an NFS server holding the homes. (Irix 6.5.14) Server B is the Samba server (Samba 2.2.2, kernel oplocks = no, Irix 6.5.14) The homes are nfs-mounted on the Samba server (autofs), and all is well until someone tries to open or create an Microsoft Office Document. I suppose it has something to do with the (bloody) ~$blahblah.doc files that are created by Office..

[Samba] Samba and WindowsXP
Hello all. I'm writing to inquire about two particular problems with Samba and Windows XP that have me perplexed. Problem #1: I have a Solaris9 Samba 2.2.5 server, which acts as a print server to all the other UNIX nodes on the network. This works fine, however, when I print from WindowsXP, instead of getting the actual printout, I get the PostScript source code, pages and pages of it. The printer is an HP LaserJet4ML/PS, so it's PS capable. Under UNIX, it's set up as a PS printer on the print server. I've already read the documentation under docs/Registry and applied the WinXP_SignOrSeal.reg. UNIX clients (IRIX, RedHat, HP-UX) print to it without any problems. Problem #2: I can not map a network drive on an IRIX 6.5.17f box, even though I can see the share. I log in under XP with the identical login as I would under IRIX. When I try to map the drive, I even pick Connect using a different user name and type in my UNIX login and passwd, but it won't map the network drive. I've applied the Win2000_PlainPassword.reg, with no results, of course. The only thing that works right now is reading and writing to a share that has guest ok = yes configured. Another two crucial pieces of information are that the PC bucket which runs XP is part of a work group, as are the Samba servers. The reason being, I use NIS and for a Samba server to be a domain controller, I would have to maintain three separate passwd files. One for local system accounts, one for NIS users, and one for Samba, which obviously defeats the whole purpose having NIS. Does Samba not work with authenticating against NIS? I thought this is handled at the OS level, and not by Samba. Can anyone help with suggestions or experiences? -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
RE: [Samba] Samba share is not writeable
Steve, thanks. Your tip makes mounting the share easier. I found what I believe was the problem, so I'll share it in case someone else has the same troubles, and browses upon this thread... I read somewhere that you can only set permissions on Win XP machines that are formatted to use the NTFS file system. Mine was FAT 32. So I changed my file system type to NTFS without data loss by executing: convert c: FS:NTFS /V And viola, whatever I say dmask is, it is!

[Samba] Netware copy fails
Affected: Various 2.x.x releases of samba on Solaris 2.6/8 and Netware 5.1 SP5. Problem: Unable to copy files from a mapped Netware drive to a mapped samba share on a PC desktop (W2K). Error: Several, but commonly Cannot copy MYFILE. Access is denied. The source file may be in use or An unexpected network error has occurred. Has anyone seen similar? It appears that some sort of corruption happens to a file once it goes to a Netware server. This does not corrupt the data in the file, but prevents the file being able to be transferred to the samba share. For example, I have a W2K desktop with: S: mapped to a samba share. N: mapped to a Netware drive. I create a new file on my PC, call it 'MYFILE'. I can drop this file onto S:(samba) OK. Now, I can also drop this file onto N:(Netware) OK. I get the error if I try copying from N: to S: Now, if I then copy the file back from N: to my desktop, the file is broken! I can no longer copy the file from my PC hard drive to the S: drive. If, however, I do a Save As from within Word, I can ALWAYS save the file to S:. This happens with both IP and IPX connections to N:. If I ftp the broken file from my PC to the Solaris server, and then copy it back to my PC, it is fixed. I can once again drag and drop it to the samba share. ftp both the good file and the bad file to Solaris. Run bdiff, and the files are identical. So, is it something in the inode information (or whatever there is in Netware) that is causing the problem? It would be good to hear from someone who has seen similar so I know I'm not imagining this!

Re: [Samba] Samba and WindowsXP
#1 I would print a job to a file on the client, transfer it manually to your server and view it with gv, vi, or whatever, to make sure it is a proper postscript file. Then, try to print it on the server to your printer. If all goes well, then you have to simply change the print command in your samba share to the print command you used to successfully print the file manually. Also, note there are different versions of postscript. Maybe your printer doesn't understand the version being sent to it. Joel On Thu, Nov 28, 2002 at 01:03:34PM -0500, VB wrote: Hello all. I'm writing to inquire about two particular problems with Samba and Windows XP that have me perplexed. Problem #1: I have a Solaris9 Samba 2.2.5 server, which acts as a print server to all the other UNIX nodes on the network. This works fine, however, when I print from WindowsXP, instead of getting the actual printout, I get the PostScript source code, pages and pages of it. The printer is an HP LaserJet4ML/PS, so it's PS capable. Under UNIX, it's set up as a PS printer on the print server. I've already read the documentation under docs/Registry and applied the WinXP_SignOrSeal.reg. UNIX clients (IRIX, RedHat, HP-UX) print to it without any problems. Problem #2: I can not map a network drive on an IRIX 6.5.17f box, even though I can see the share. I log in under XP with the identical login as I would under IRIX. When I try to map the drive, I even pick Connect using a different user name and type in my UNIX login and passwd, but it won't map the network drive. I've applied the Win2000_PlainPassword.reg, with no results, of course. The only thing that works right now is reading and writing to a share that has guest ok = yes configured. Another two crucial pieces of information are that the PC bucket which runs XP is part of a work group, as are the Samba servers. The reason being, I use NIS and for a Samba server to be a domain controller, I would have to maintain three separate passwd files. One for local system accounts, one for NIS users, and one for Samba, which obviously defeats the whole purpose having NIS. Does Samba not work with authenticating against NIS? I thought this is handled at the OS level, and not by Samba.

[Samba] delay while browsing printer list
Hello, while using samba 2.2.7 with cups as print server for windows clients, every user gets a 15-20 seconds freeze of the complete desktop (mouse movement still works) when opening the printer list the first time after login. (If all printers are closed the can be reproduced). Has anyone else noticed this ? The workaround is to use a local printer instead and point its port from lpt1: to /servername/printershare.

The kernel Samba is running on supports 64 bit fcntl locks, however the underlying (NFS) filesystem that the files are being shared from only supports 32 bit locks. Thus the lock request is being denied. If these files are only being accessed by Windows users (the usual case for MS-Office files, unless you have OpenOffice on IRIX) then you can turn off the mapping down to POSIX locking by setting the parameter posix locking = False.

Justin, What type of performance do you get when putting a file to the server using FTP? Or NFS for that matter? If there is a networking issue other than Samba, you should see slow write performance using those protocols as well Samba will probably be close to NFS in speed, with both being somewhat slower than FTP, which has less protocol overhead (no filesystem involved). -- Jim Morris ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

Re: [SAMBA] config/performance problem on solaris 8
Jim, Good call! ftp suffered same performance. i never noticed a NFS problem to my other Sparc's because most of the time I was reading data off of the server. Now to determine where the problem is.. the only settings I have changed in /etc/system is adding: set tcp:tcp_conn_hash_size=32768 set hme:hme_adv_autoneg_cap = 0 set hme:hme_adv_100fdx_cap = 1 no other changes (such as ndd commands). I took the 3 above settings out of /etc/system, rebooted and ftp performance was over 10 meg/sec both directions, samba is now doing 7.5 m/s read from server and 8 m/s write to server. It seems strange that I can write to the samba shares faster than I can read?? both nic's come up as 100meg full duplex, so it must have been the tcp:tcp_conn_hash_size setting. at any rate, thank you both for helping me look at this problem! this kind of performance will keep me happy for a while! Any idea why tcp:tcp_conn_hash_size=32768 would have such negative affect? We have tweaked this setting on some of our larger servers at work (E4500's, E6500's and Sunfire 4800's) and it never had bad results.. - Original Message - From: Jim Morris [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Justin Richards [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, November 28, 2002 7:39 PM Subject: Re: [SAMBA] config/performance problem on solaris 8 Justin, What type of performance do you get when putting a file to the server using FTP? Or NFS for that matter? If there is a networking issue other than Samba, you should see slow write performance using those protocols as well Samba will probably be close to NFS in speed, with both being somewhat slower than FTP, which has less protocol overhead (no filesystem involved). -- Jim Morris ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
Re: [Samba] Connection to a Remote XP Box
As I recall your error was called name not present, yes? I am not sure what is doing this. To troubleshoot this, I would make sure that your host resolution is working right. The parameter: [global] name resolve order = lmhosts wins bcast hosts determines how things are looked up. lmhosts = lmhosts file on your linux box wins = use wins server bcast = broadcast hosts = use host lookup. Will check /etc/hosts, then your DNS. The default order, as listed in loadparam.c, seems to be: string_set(Globals.szNameResolveOrder, lmhosts host wins bcast); (Yes, host and hosts both seem to work, dunno.) Edit smb.conf, and use just one method at a time, eg: name resolve order = wins smbclient will only try the wins server with this options specified. You might be able to track down where the error is coming from. You don't have to restart smbd after you make these changes. My suspicion is that one of the methods of lookup is returning wrong data.

Re: [Samba] Connection failed with smbclient
nmblookup likely uses bcasting or a wins server to find a host, whereas smbclient may use lmhost and host (/etc/host and DNS) as well, or none of these, depending on smb.conf. What if you mess with name resolve order in your global section of smb.conf? Joel On Thu, Nov 28, 2002 at 09:30:30AM -0500, David A.

Re: [Samba] Access Linux PC from other windows machines in the WorkGroup
It looks like you probably need to read some beginner's introduction to Samba. To answer your question, we'd need a copy of your smb.conf file, at least. You also might add information such as: 1. Unix version used as Samba host. 2. Version of Samba in use. 3. Is your Windows network a workgroup or domain? 4. Version of Windows the client is running. My guess is that you didn't set up your accounts on the Samba server using smbpasswd. Try: # smbpasswd -a username (run as root user), where username is the name of an account on the Samba host (Unix system), and is used by the Windows user to log on. - Jay Ts - On Thu, Nov 28, 2002 at 08:41:27PM -0800, Rakesh Rajan wrote: Dear Sir, I want to access my Linux shared folder from other windows PC's in the same work group.

2nd attempt: Modify location of printerdriverfiles
Hi! Maybe this time someone can give me a hint - or is my english that bad - so that nobody can catch the point - or my question is posted to the false list? Please each answer is welcome! Thank you! Hello, Samba-Team, hello samba-freaks! My question/problem: I like to use a samba-server as printer-server for about 500 users with ~ 40 different printers. The client OS is NT4 or XP. The problem I encountered is that there are printerdrivers out there which use for different models dlls with the same name but the dlls are not compatible - great!! - ! So only the last installed printer works flawless, because the dll for the other model is overwritten during driverinstall. My question: Is there a tool, which allows save tempering with the *.tdb, to change the path to the driverfiles or to change the behavior to rpc getdriverinfo? This way it would be possible to create an own driver-directory-structur and all those printerdriver related problems are gone... Greetings Ralf Btw.: Redhat 8.0 and latest Samba. Calling the printermanufactor is hopeless. The only answer I got is: This must be a problem with your OS... thanks for your help. :( Greetings Ralf
Re: 2nd attempt: Modify location of printerdriverfiles
That would change nearly nothnig, because the printer drivers will be copyed in the same structure on the client and there you will find the same naming problem. It is a known windows problem (just faces some day ago with drivers for 2 HP laser printers on a windows 98 :-/) If the Printer Manufacturer tell you so she is both right an wrong. Right it is an OS problem, A windows OS problem. Wrong the manufacter must know this issue and try not to make drivers with overlapping names. However you may try just a workaround. If any of your clients will use only one printer, you may try some symlink + macro expansion tricks to use different directories, but it may not work or corrupt badly your printer settings and prnting related tdb file, so at your own risk: - you may use a macro expansion on the print$ share path and then make a number of directories that match that macro expansion eg: path = /usr/share/samba/%G/drivers and have a pool of printers per group or other parameter.

I think the workaround will not work. I can´t predict which user on which machine will use which printer. Our users have in most case max. two networkprinters connected - for our luck long physikal ways prevent the need to connect to more printers. We have created a small script which erases all printerrelated registry-entries and files on the client. A user or admin can run this script and the client is clean for a new printer-installation. This way we work around the naming-problem on the client. (The users *theoretical* know which printers cannot be installed at the same time). Of course this works not on the printserver :)).

Re: RE RE: 2nd attempt: Modify location of printerdriverfiles
Uhm not sure either if this will work, but you could try to use %S as substitution This way you may have a directory for each printer name ... of course if you rename a printer you may get into troubles, but it is unlikely that you like changing printer names every day :-) Here it is a list of macros you may think to try: These substitutions are mostly noted in the descriptions below, but there are some general substitutions which apply whenever they might be relevant. These are: %S the name of the current service, if any. %P the root directory of the current service, if any. %u user name of the current service, if any. %g primary group name of %u. %U session user name (the user name that the client wanted, not necessarily the same as the one they got). %G primary group name of %U. %H the home directory of the user given by %u. %v the Samba version. %h the Internet hostname that Samba is running on. %m the NetBIOS name of the client machine (very use- ful). %L the NetBIOS name of the server. This allows you to change your config based on what the client calls you. Your server can have a dual personality. Note that this paramater is not available when Samba listens on port 445, as clients no longer send this information %M the Internet name of the client machine. %N the name of your NIS home directory server. This is obtained from your NIS auto.map entry. If you have not compiled Samba with the --with-automount option then this value will be the same as %L. %p the path of the service's home directory, obtained from your NIS auto.map entry. The NIS auto.map entry is split up as %N:%p. %R the selected protocol level after protocol negotia- tion. It can be one of CORE, COREPLUS, LANMAN1, LANMAN2 or NT1. %d The process id of the current server process. %a the architecture of the remote machine. Only some are recognized, and those may not be 100% reliable. It currently recognizes Samba, WfWg, Win95, WinNT and Win2k. Anything else will be known as UNKNOWN. If it gets it wrong then sending a level 3 log to [EMAIL PROTECTED] URL:mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] should allow it to be fixed. %I The IP address of the client machine. %T the current date and time. %$(envvar) The value of the environment variable envar. There are some quite creative things that can be done with these substitutions and other smb.conf options. On Thu, 2002-11-28 at 12:16, Kätzler, Ralf wrote: I think the workaround will not work.

Yes - what I was talking about, and the original poster in this thread, was restricting the NUMBER of logons, not necessarily where the logons come from. Mmm.

Password encryption *with* failed login tallying *will* be part of security policy .. Well - sounds like you are going to put yourself into the same situation I have been talking about in the thread 'Encrypted Passwords Restricting Logon Attempts' over the past day or so. If you have followed that thread, you know that there is no way to do the tallying with current versions of Samba. I implemented PAM support for the company I am consulting for in order to expire passwords every 60 days - PAM allows for no grace period, but does allow for a warning period. During the logon script execution on the PC's, I implemented a process to throw up the user's web browser if they are within that warning period, prior to expiration. They are given a change to go to a web page and change their Samba password, or told that they can do it through the Windows Control Panel as well. I would have just invoked the Control Panel option to change passwords, but did not know how to do so. Plus, there are Win95/98/NT/2000 boxes to support, and each one has a different way to set the Windows networking password. ... What is needed is an examination of the various security policies that can be setup in an NT/2000 Server environment, so that a list of such items that are appropriate to a Samba environment can be built.

This allows for those occasions when (e.g.) someone is away for a whole month, during which their password expires. That sounds great. Right now, the problem they are having is that many PC's are left on for days or weeks at a time. Or people will be on vacation when their password expires. So in those cases, they suddenly loose access to network resources, without seeing the expiration warning, since that is only displayed during the logon process. Having a chance to change the password on the next logon after it expires would be great. PAM won't give me this flexibility right now. -- Jim Morris ([EMAIL PROTECTED])

Re: samba on lynxos 3.0
Unfortunatly there is no crypt() available on Lynxos. So you have to work around this issue somehow. With a little work, you can probably port the FreeBSD version of crypt.c to your system. The FreeBSD license should not give you any problems. Hi, The freebsd sources are not particulary useful because the DES algorithm seems to be missing in libcrypt.

Calling the printermanufactor is hopeless. The only answer I got is: = This must be a problem with your OS... thanks for your help. [:(] Greetings Ralf Hi, Ralf, may I suggest a radically different approach to your problem? * Let the Windows Clients use a PostScript driver, to produce PostScript as their print output sent towards the Samba print server (just like any Linux or Unix Client would also use PostScript to send to the server...) * make the Unix printing subsystem which is underneath Samba convert the incoming PostScript files to the native print format of the target printers (would likely be PCL? I understand you have mainly HP models?) * You're afraid, that this would just mean a *Generic* PostScript driver for the clients? With no Simplex/Duplex selection, no paper tray choice? But you need them to be able to set up their jobs, ringing all the bells and whistles of the printers? -- Not possible with traditional spooling systems! -- But perfectly supported by CUPS (which uses PPD files to describe how to control the print options for PostScript and non-PostScript devices alike... CUPS PPDs are working perfectly on Windows clients who use Adobe PostScript drivers (or the new CUPS PostScript driver for Windows NT/2K/XP). Clients can use them to setup the job to their liking and CUPS will use the received job options to make the (PCL-, ESC/P- or PostScript-) printer behave as required. * You want to have the additional benefit of page count logging and accounting? In this case the CUPS PostScript driver is the best choice (better than the Adobe one). * You want to make the drivers downloadable for the clients? cupsaddsmb is your friend. It will setup the [print$] share on the Samba host to be ready to serve the clients for a point and print driver installation... What strings are attached?, I hear you asking... You are right, there are some. But, given the sheer CPU power you can buy nowadays in German supermarkets, these can be overcome easily. The strings: Well, if the CUPS/Samba side will have to print a *lot* onto 40 printers serving 500 users, you probably will need to set up a second server (which can do automatic load balancing with the first one, plus a degree of fail-over mechanism). Converting the incoming PostScript jobs, interpreting them for non-PostScript printers, amounts to the work of a RIP (Raster Image Processor) done in software. This requires more CPU and RAM than for the mere raw spooling task your current setup is solving... It all depends on the avarage and peak printing load the server should be able to handle If you want, I can point you to or give you more more info in private mail. Cheers, Kurt

I added --with-sambadatadir witch is default ${datadir}/samba (--with-fhs) or ${datadir} ${datadir} is ${prefix}/share by default, so $(sambadatadir) is ${prefix}/share/samba or ${prefix}/share. the valid.dat ... files are now installed to sambadatadir I'm happy with this patch, but NOT with the name 'sambadatadir' DOES ANYBODY HAVE ABETTER IDEA? Need a new capslock key? ;-) Would the name datadir be ok to you - is there anyone who has problems with putting the *.dat files not in the libdir ? How's your winsdb stuff btw?

Porting guide Samba 2.2.x - 3.0
Folks, unfortunately I wasn't able to follow the 3.0 development nor this ML very closely. Does a porting guide from 2.2.x to 3.0 exist? I've just discovered that the following code void send_message(pstring msg) { [..] unix_to_dos(msg); len = strlen(msg); if (!cli_message_start(cli, remote_machine, username, grp_id)) { DEBUG(0,(message start: %s, cli_errstr(cli))); return; } [..] does not compile anymore with Samba 3.0 alpha 20, as the unix_to_dos function seems to be removed. Any equivalent available? Thanks! best regards, Rainer Link OpenAntiVirus.org

Just as a note - it has been proposed that in Samba HEAD we should store it in LDAP - I would like to see a 'domain' record that contains things like this, account policies - so we don't need to worry about TDBs for basic PDC/BDC operation.
