I want to connect to the windows active directory domain in our company. To do this I want to run the samba service. But it is not listed in the services. (#service --status-all) but I cant see the samba config file smb.conf why I cant run this other services smbd, nmbd is also not listed. But winbind is listed and I started it.

I have to rename a group of machines in my little samba domain (tbd backend) but there is an ugly bug that makes this impossible. have set 'rename user script' variable corectly, also checked all configurations.When i change computer name in my windows box, it shows an error saying something like "Error calling remote procedure"Looking on server side, username for the machine gets correctly changed in /usr/passwd, and also in samba database.But samba log says:
===============================================================

I installed Centos 5.5 on a home PC to be used remotely.
All server daemons work fine but only start if the user is logged in.
How do I set the SSH server to start whenever the PC is turned on, rather than when the user is logged in? I read the chkconfig man page online but couldn't find anything.
Plus I put a script in my startup services to be run whenever the computer boots (I'm guessing when the users logs in). How do I go about setting that to run too whenever the system boots instead?

I have installed squid using CentOS 5. The server is dedicated only for squid proxy server. I want to know how can I disable unwanted services which load at booting time. Like sendmail,samba,etc etc. These services take memory and are not in use. I does not know how can I make my server only for squid proxy service by removing unwanted services?

I've installed CentOS 5.3 on a machine, and I need a Samba version 3.2 or higher. Since 3.4 is out, I thought I'd grab that. But, "yum list|grep samba" gives me only version 3.0.33. Is there a package of Samba I can grab that will upgrade the 3.0 installation so that I don't have two laying around? If not and I need to compile from source, do you have any suggestions for what arguments I should give configure? I'm not used to Linux coming from the BSD world

Since upgrading to Karmic, all my shares under 'Removable Devices' are listed twice...all was fine in Jaunty though, and I've done nothing to change them.Would anyone have an idea how to resolve this.In terms of what I see, there are all my shares with a white drive icon which, when clicked, do nothing. I then have all the same shares with a metal drive icon which open up the share when clicked.
I understand that the icons may look different, depending on what icon theme you're using, but the principal will remain the same.

I have been trying to get my Samba 3.x NAS to connect to my Windows XP laptop. I can see the server though I cannot open it and see the shares. I have run various tests on the network and Samba (ping, smbclient) though still cannot find why I can't connect.
I can access the NAS via webmin, so I am thinking I need the security or the services settings on the XP machine. Is there a list somewhere of the Windows XP services and security settings required to share files?

I am baffled by fedora's feeble attempts to work with Samba. I have ran various versions of Fedora for the last few years, and sporadically, the Samba gui and samba itself have had such problems. My current problem in Fedora 11 (64bit) is that samba doesn't seem to be running correctly. It is allowing the hosting of shares, but it does not show that it is running in the services gui. It shows enabled, but when I attempt to change it by starting or stopping, nothing happens. The samba gui also shows that it launches but then never actually starts. I saw very similar problems with Fedora 9.

I have a little bit of a problem, I run openSUSE as a server on a Dell PowerEdge T610. I use it for sharing files in a local network and as a web server accessible through the public IP (configured through router DMZ). Also, I use Teamviewer for remote control in order to avoid some compatibility and network problems. Generally the computer runs flawless but from time to time, as about once in two weeks, all network related services except the Apache server which runs just fine, and is still accesible, crash. The Samba share can't be accessed anymore, the Teamviewer is also dead and the only way to put everything back in order is a restart. The thing is I don't know if an error occurs since the server hasn't got a monitor installed, and more than that I do most of my work remotely (as in miles and miles away from the location) and it takes me quite some time to actually get there and see what's happening.
So, any ideas what might be happening? I belive that there might be some information in some of the logs, but as I am not an expert in Unix like operating systems I don't exactly know where to start from.

I have a perfectly functional Samba file and print server. I will be adding several Window 2008 servers to serve as terminal server hosts running in virtual machines. I would like to convert my Samba server to a PDC (Primary Domain Controller) for these terminal servers to use. And leave everyone else as a work group (the current situation). I'd like to
1) use /etc/password and /etc/samba/smbpasswd as the source of the user accounts
2) limit what users the terminal servers can see based on a particular group (/etc/group)
So far I have tried the example howto's on the samba site and wound up having to restore /etc/nsswitch.conf in rescue mode.

I have re-installed our operating system (CentOS 5) ,what is the best way to restore our Samba server? Can it be as simple as copying the smb.config and smbpasswd files back into the /etc/samba directory? That's what I am hoping. If I just copy the smb.config and the smbpasswd files back to the samba directory will the machine trusts, users and passwords just work? If not, what is the proper procedure for restoring. Actually i want to make CentOS 5.3 as my Domain Controller, I want to test all Scenario in case of any disaster of DC before putting it into production environment. I have some queries as:
1. Is CentOS 5 is more stable than RHEL 5 etc.
2. How can i take back up of entire samba server if need it in case of any disaster. How can i restore it.
3. How can i use logon scripts like GPO in windows servers.
4. How can add users in samba server and linux at one time with one command.
5. tell me any Web based samba administration tool other than SWAT.

I'm planning to use a virtual CentOS box for web development (to use the same software as on the real server). I configured Samba to have root guest access to /var/www/ but it doesn't let me in /var. Chmod 777 doesn't help. Nethertheless, I have full access to /sbin and /etc.

Still new to Linux and especially samba. I have setup samba for 2 shares, will list below shares. 1 which requires a login and 1 temp folder which I would like guest access to. Currently I have security = user which works great for the data folder which requires a login. If I try to access temp I get asked for a user name and password as well. I tried to set security = share which then allowed access to temp with out a login but also allowed access to the data folder. From the data folder I emoved public = yes. I then get asked for a user name and password like I should but the system will not accept it. This is a Centos 5.5 server with a mail server on it.
[data]
comment = Data Folder
path = /home/data/
public = yes
writable = yes
browseable = yes
printable = no
avaliable = yes
write list = glenn,
force create mode = 0660
force directory mode = 0770
[temp]
comment = temp folder
path = /home/temp/
public = yes
writeable = yes
browseable = yes
guest ok = yes
guest only = yes
guest account = nobody
available = yes
force user = nobody

Just completed a fresh install if V5.3. It works fine.
Samba server: I tried to create a Samba user named "root" with Windows user name "administrator". Message is something like "account already exists"? I know "root" exists, but why can't I use it as a login? I don't get this error when I use another existing user account "LouA".
This is important to me because many documents state that "root" is to be used as the user name. I don't want to change these.
Current set-up allows access to all users (there is no Samba user listed) and I can read, write and delete files from Windows just fine.

I'm trying to set up a test system for Windows 7. I've been having trouble getting it to map drives on the domain where I work, so I wanted to set up a test system with a similar setup so I can play around with settings without mucking up our network. Only problem is I can't get it configured to even work with XP, which does work on our domain.
When I type \server in the Run box I get the explorer window showing all of the test shares I've set up. But when I try to access them, it says the network path could not be found. Here is my smb.conf file:
[global]
workgroup = MAJOR
netbios name = VPN
realm = MAJOR.COM

Good evening, I get the following error when prompted for my user name and password credentials that have access to the domain rights on the server. After typing in root and the password I get the following.
"The specified computer account could not be found. Contact an administrator to verify the account is in the domain. If the account has been deleted, unjoin, reboot and rejoin the domain."
Posted below is my smb.conf file, however I feel like I am screwing up the last steps with group-mapping, net commands, and creating accounts.
[global]
workgroup = SCRUGGSHOME
passdb backend = tdbsam
printcap name = cups
add user script = /usr/sbin/useradd -m %u

I've been testing a PDC with samba and LDAP these days with the following unsolved issue. 1. I can add the client PC (Windows XP SP3) with the Domain Admin user (Manager) from the client PC, but when i try to add a user I get this message "The trust relationship between this workstation and primary domain failed", so as it can be added later I ignored this message and choose 'close' and reboot the PC. 2. Since the login screen is showed, the message 'Duplicate name exists on the network' appears. So I try to log on with a valid domain username and password after pressing ctrl+alt+del and get the error message: "System cannot log you on because domain rmprb is not available"
