Please explain to me the net benefit of not being able to delete the directory entry. It means you can modify a file, but not create or delete one.

No. The native NT4 SAM replication protocols have not yet been fully implemented. Can I get the benefits of a BDC with Samba? Yes, but only to a Samba PDC.The main reason for implementing a BDC is availability. If the PDC is a Samba machine, a second Samba machine can be set up to service logon requests whenever the PDC is down. I don't understand what this means. I have a NT4 PDC and a NT4 BDC : they are on a different network. The BDC is old and i'd like to upgrade to Samba3. Do you think it is possible or not ??

Re: [Samba] Samba w/o local users on Samba server?
Robert Schuettler wrote: Hi everyone, is it possible to have a Samba server without creating local accounts for users on that server? Share level security doesn't count though. ;-) The idea is not to need to create and update users on the Samba server itself (i.e. no local users, no entries in /etc/passwd, etc). The documentation says something about Domain and ADS level security being basically just forms of user level security, so - for the moment- it looks to me as if there's no way around creating those local users. Is that correct? I can't say for certain, I believe it's possible, if you use ACLs on your file system. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
Re: [Samba] Unable to browse XP directory
I don't have a domain. And I can access the share, I just have to mount it manually. I can't use Konqueor, with a URL such as smb://xp/data, the way I can with OS/2 or other Linux shares. If I manually mount it, I can browse through the mount point, as normal. I seem to recall there was an XP registry setting for that, but I don't remember what it was.

[Samba] Wierd problem with file sharing over internet.
I've set up a CIPE VPN, between my notebook computer and my Linux based firewall. While the VPN generally works well, I've noticed a strange problem with file sharing from the local network to the notebook. I set up the VPN, with the idea of accessing my systems at home via a dial up ISP, to my home network via cable modem. The VPN works well for most protocols, such as telnet, ssh, ftp, X etc. However, when I try to access files using Samba, about 12 packets are exchanged and then the session stops. A similar problem occurs with NFS. What makes the situation more perplexing, is that if I connect directly to my firewall or via WiFi, Samba and NFS work fine. In all cases, the VPN enters my firewall via eth0. This seems to imply that the problem may be due to the extreme speed difference between the dial up access and my 100 Mb lan. If the problem were due to the firewall or VPN, it should be consistent, no matter what the connection speed. I'm using Red Hat 7.3 on all systems. The problem also occurs, when trying to access files on my OS/2 system. Also, when I try to access files on my notebook (connected via dialup), from my local lan, every is also fine, so the problem appears to be asymetrical. Any ideas? btw, I can provide ethereal or tcpdump records of some attempts. tnx jk -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
