Re: [Samba] Deploying apps via policy
Btw having GPO at place reduces much of the hand work you have to to for client PC setup. Hi, IMHO currently the only way to deploy GPOs with Samba is by using Nitrobit Group Policy [http://www.nitrobit.com/].

Re: [Samba] Deploying apps via policy
Hi, No just use Samba4, it brings server side GPO support. If you miss some config options from samba3 you really need, you can try compile samba with --enable-merged-build to enable building samba3 +samba4. - samba3 then takes care of file sharing stuff - samba4 handles the AD stuff. see http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Franky.

Re: [Samba] Deploying apps via policy
Hi, depends on what your config should look like, as some parameters aren't implemented. AD stuff works great. for the rest I would recommend installing samba4, creating config and let 'testparm' have a look at it. It tell's you whenever there's an unknown parameter. if it's something you really can't live without you know that you need franky ;-)) I didn't test franky, but from my understanding you only have one config file, so IMHO it seems as the best (full working) solution right now.

Re: [Samba] Deploying apps via policy
Hi, yes I've seen quite the same that network browsing does not show the server. This is kind of 'uncomfortable' but my users just live with it, as they don't really have another choice. Could you manage to try if a franky build would fix that? I'm curious but horrible out of time to play with samba right now :-(( Regards, --- Mr. Olli On Mon, 2009-07-20 at 18:12 -0300, Norberto Bensa wrote: On Mon, Jul 20, 2009 at 5:27 PM, Marcio Merlonemarcio.merl...@a1.ind.br wrote: Mister Olli escreveu: see http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Franky.

Re: [Samba] Deploying apps via policy
Hi, don't know about that. Would be nice too. Somehow implementing Active Directory with Samba4 is a straight-forward job and enables espacially small companies to have a well structured IT. trust me this solves a lot of problems with daily IT ;-)) It's somehow cheap as you already have some kind for server for central data storage/ printers/ scanners/ ... but not licence costs. Some thing I'm currently missing is ability to configure samba shares with some MS tool (don't know if this would ever be possible???) that integrates into MS domain administration tools.

Hello, Hope this helps you: http://www.laslow.net/?p=29 It's a guide on how to install fonts using WinInstall. This one creates a MSI package that you can install via GPO. maybe you're able to customize this to your needs, or already have a MSI package that you can install via GPO. let me know how you solved it, I'm interested in that too, but time is short ;-))) Regards, --- Mr. Olli On Fri, 2009-07-17 at 00:13 -0400, Adam Del Vecchio wrote: Can I deploy software/applications through group or domain policy with samba? -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
