[Samba] Netware 5.0 to Samba/LDAP migration
I'd like to migrate a Netware 5.0 serve to Samba and LDAP. I'm wondering how I might export the usernames, passwords, and perhaps group memberships to the destination LDAP. If I can get the data into LDIF form, I'm okay from there. Does anyone know how the passwords in Netware 5.0 are encrypted? I hope to bring them over, but reseting the passwords is not out of the question (just inconvenient).

[Samba] 'add machine script' broken after upgrade to RHEL AS 4
I just upgraded to Redhat Enterprise Linux AS 4 and now my 'add machine script' doesn't work. If I run the command manually from the console, I get this error: useradd: invalid user name 'machinename$' I figured this is because of the '$' at the end of the machine name. I think the useradd command is part of Shadow-utils. RHEL AS 4 is using shadow-utils-4.0.3-41.1 (RHEL AS 3 was using shadow-utils-4.0.3-22.02). Does anyone know if this is in fact the problem? Also, I know I can add the machine name without the '$' and then edit /etc/passwd to put it back, but is there a way to automate this with the 'add machine script'?

[Samba] Migration to Samba
I'm migrating to Samba on about 50 desktops. After I join the domain (this is on Windows 2k or XP) I get a whole new set of settings (under documents and settings). Is there a way to tell Windows to use the old directory? It matches their username on samba if that helps. Note, I'm using local profiles.

[Samba] Login scripts based on group
I have users that belong to several groups. I want a logon script to be run for each of the groups to which a user belongs. For example, when I logon, I want admin.bat, users.bat, and someothergroup.bat to run. On Novell I used to use 'if Member of groupName...', but I don't know how to do this in Samba..

On Novell I used to use 'if Member of groupName...', but I don't know how to do this in Samba.. Two ways : 1) Use ifmember in the main login script to check for group membership and call the appropriate scripts. ifmember is (IIRC) downloadable from the Microsoft web site. 2) Use the pre-exec facility of Samba to build a users login script on the fly each time they connect to the netlogon share. Use %u (again, IIRC) in the declaration of the login script parameter so that each users uses their own script, then write a script (executed on the host) that will build the login script (which of course can use any information available to the host scripting language) and set it as the pre-exec script for the share. 3. Use Kixtart! It's perfect, it works for all versions of Windows, it's very easy, and you will be able to script things you haven't even thought of yet. Misty I don't think I want to think of new things to do in a logon script! :) ifmember is working beautifully! Thanks Simon!

[Samba] Windows XP SP2 doesn't login to SAMBA domain
Hello, We have a samba server for our computer lab. Currently all the machines are either windows 98 or windows 2000. The 98 machines are assigned to the 'INTRANET' workgroup, while the windows 2000 machines are part of the 'INTRANET' domain. We have no problems with this setup. I'm now trying to deploy Windows XP (sp2) computers to this lab. I'm constantly getting errors about not being able to access the server (e.g. Windows cannot connect to the domain, either because the domain controller is down or otherwise available, or because your computer account was not found). Note, I was successfully able to join the computer to the domain (I created the machine account on samba first). Also, browsing the network shares works fine. I've tried the following: - added an lmhosts file with a '\0x1b' entry for the domain - told the XP client to use the samba machine for WINS - disabled 'Domain Member:Digitally encrypt or sign secure channel data (always)' - enabled NetBIOS over TCP/IP - disabled Windows Firewall It sounds to me like a resolution issue (there are no entries in the log.smb file), but I'd expect the WINS and/or lmhosts to fix that. Any ideas?

RE: [Samba] Windows XP SP2 doesn't login to SAMBA domain
I haven't gone samba3 yet because Debian Stable has stuck with 2.2.3a-13. Do you think Samba 3 will fix the problems with XP? Also, Windows products are far more vulnerable when not up-to-date than Linux products :) Dean -Original Message- Hi, Why keep your XP pcs updated with the latest while neglecting your Samba?
