We are looking at implementing a Windows Domain structure very soon and I
have been asked to evaluate/investigate the differences between using Samba
as a DC vs a true Win2k DC. We run TCP/IP and Appletalk on a 100Base-T
network.
I'm the main Microsoft person in the group and have a lot of
I've seen various posts to this and other lists about CUPS, Windows
printing, and downloading of drivers for an IPP printer installed on a
Windows machine, the printer being serviced by CUPS.
I have downloaded the respective Windows 9x, 2K, and XP drivers from
manufacturers' sites, and want to

Although this should not be the cause of your problem, Is this correct?
No. A stuck key along the way. It has been corrected.

Now that I've been able to get Win XP added to a Samba PDC and users log
in, Windows results in a no-icon solid-color background as the default.
I can switch to Windows Classic desktop and get the icons back.

I want to configure samba to produce a common area (i.e. /home/shared) as

they will also get an S: drive (for example) for a common area.

I have several Windows XP machines that are domain members of a Samba PDC
running under RedHat Enterprise 5 Server, installed with just out-of-box
RedHat media.
Detailed audit logging is enabled on the Windows machines.
My question is this - if I find an entry in the Windows XP Event Viewer

this, too, but for how
I have a CentOS 5 box that is joined to a genuine Windows domain
controller and users can easily log into that box with their AD
credentials. I configured the Linux box' native config files

Logins work fine.

We have a Windows 2008 R2 w/Service Pack 1 domain controller and a

Part of the required security settings on the domain controller are:
