I have to move all the files and directories between 2 file systems. Is it good practice to move them at once or first copy them and then move ? How to do this to preserve the permissions and directory structure ?

I want to setup a Linux File Server for a small windows network (around 50 users). I do know that I am gona need Smb service/pkg for that. I haven't used Samba for a while now and as per the best of my knowledge, entire communication (including usernames and passwords) between a samba server & windows client machines will be plain text. Is there any way to secure all this communication??
Secondly, if i remember correctly, MS windows wont let me mount more than one samba shares as network disk when all my shares can be accessed by different smb users with different passwords?? is there a solution to this problem? OR may be if there is any other package available for this purpose so that i wont have to use samba?

My Pug Server has worked faithfully for many years just sitting in a closet. It is designed wo that you never need to add a monitor or keyboard as it is administered through a web interface. Recently it had a problem with the motherboard and I had to replace it, but the machine is now working. However, it no longer is visible as a network drive on my Windows machine.Unfortunately I have no idea where to start looking to see what the problem is. I did attach a keyboard and monitor and logged on, but everything looks okay (I can see my files, etc.).
This is an old machine (c. 2003), so has an old version of Linux (I have no idea what version, or even how to find out). Since it is never meant to be used directly it doesn't have any GUI installed, so I have to do everything using command line.Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can even start to determine what the problem is or how I can go about trying to fix it? At this point I would be happy just to get the files out and replace it with a newer NAS.

I cannot access the server file (prompted again and again to enter user name and password). What did i miss

I would like to know how to link linux users to have their windows folder (on fileserver) into linux..I have a windows fileserver which hosts AD users home (personal) folder.I also have linux (redhat) with SAMBA. users have their home folder in linux but also want to access their home folder in windows. Is there any solution which automatically creates links in linux home folder, when a user logs into linux he can also view / edit his files in windows home folder.I know to smbmount but there are 500+ users and creating smbmount / smbclient for each would be time consuming also many of the users are dynamic (added / deleted frequently).

How to configure File Sharing server which will be in the same network along with Windows DNS servers and others.Googling showed me that "Samba server" will do the job of file sharing . Okay samba server is configured on Ubuntu Linux machine but how to add this to the existing domain where windows machines are ? Do i have to really add this Samba server to windows Active directory or adding it in the network will do? Please also help me in configuring samba server security and the ease of user access of the data on the server.

Two users on both Ubuntu server and Windows 7. Both users admins on Windows. Used SWAT to set up Samba. Printer is local to Ubuntu server. User A can access both file share and printer on Ubuntu server from Windows. User B can access the file share but can only see the printer, not use it. Have looked everywhere I can think of to find out why one user has access and the other doesn't on both Windows side and Ubuntu side. As far as I can tell, they are set up the same. Can anyone provide some direction on what I should look at to find out what might be preventing User B from being authorized to use the printer on Ubuntu?

I have a qmail mta that needs to be moved to another server. The current host system will be discarded due to end of SLA for the hardware support.
The qmail mta is setup according to the guide on [URL]. There are currently about 10 postboxes and about 30 forwards defined with a total of about 1000 emails.
I don't want to send each old mail to a backup postbox outside qmail and resend it back after I setup a new qmail mta on the new server.
I would like to setup qmail in a configuration where each mail would be automatically replicated on the qmail mta, where the new mta would take over duty when the old one will shutdown. Anyone had a similar project and know how to do this? If not does anyone know how to move a qmail install onto another new system? Or may be how to export and import the postboxes and forwards?

Im running my website on a Debian machine that started to get high load so i wanted to move the mysql server to it's own machine. and here is the problem. The second machine is also Debian and is behind a router only running mysql. i have forwarded the port 3306 to the second machine and created an A record for "mysql" so mysql.mydomain.com points towards the second machine. However, when i try to connect my websites script to the second machine i get the following error "Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Lost connection to MySQL server at 'reading initial communication packet', system error: 111" when i open the site in a a browser.
edit: i can connect to it without a problem localy trough phpmyadmin etc.

So I have tried google but it has been a big old fail on my end to find some info I need. I have been using Linux for a while now at home, and am currently running both Ubuntu Server and Desktop at home. Now because I like Linux so much I am trying to bring it into my work place.
What I am trying to accomplish, but do not know where to look is to have my Linux File server accessible through a VPN that is currently running on a Windows Server 2003. I have Samba up and running to share, and Likewise-open for AD.

I am able to view my windows network from my UBUNTU desktop after being prompted for a username and password to the windows network. No problem. But how can I accomplish this from the command prompt?
Here is my windows directory; smb://corpserver/d$/Data
And here is what I am trying to accomplish;
Code:
mv /var/lib/mysql/RSecuredData.csv smb://corpserver/d$/Data/Common/Secured%20R%20Reports/$(date +%Y%m%d)_RSecuredData.csv
Basically taking a csv file and moving it from mysql directory on my Ubuntu machine to a network folder on my windows server. (Windows Server 2003)
When I try that command from the command prompt I recieve;
Code:
mv: cannot move `/var/lib/mysql/RepoSecuredData.csv' to `smb://corpserver/d$/Data/Common/Secured%20Repo%20Reports/20100323_RepoSecuredData.csv': No such file or directory

Question for the sys admin types:So, say you want to do file sharing in an environment with a lot of Windows clients, but you want the shared data on a Linux server. You can use SAMBA, and that will make all the Windows clients happy (provided, of course, that you can get SAMBA working correctly). But is this your only option?I mean, obviously you can use ssh/sftp. But the Windows sftp clients I have tried don't make the file sharing process as simple for non-techies: you either just get a command-line, or you get some kind of two-pane application view like with filezilla or cuteFTP; it isn't as integrated into the desktop as what you get when using native SMB file sharing.So, is there Windows software you can install that can make the file sharing experience very non-expert friendly with some protocol like ssh/sftp or NFS?

I update my system to 11.3 and cannot copy file(s) to Windows Server 2003 by Dolphi (smb://user@server/shared). After error inform for dialog box, I click on Cancel Button and see the file, or better, part of file (32.0 KiB) try copy. I can create folder, create file empty, but not copy file or files. The problem isn't permission, because I inform my credentials correctly.

Don't ask me why, but I need to back up a website with complete structure to a windows machine (so no tar/gzip - just an identical copy). I'm experienced with rsync, so I thought to do it that way. However, in the process I'm bound to lose my ownership/permission settings for each file and that will give problems when placing back certain files. Is there a way to either:
1. save those settings on a windows machine?
2. have an easy way to save the filetree with relevant information and a shell script to attach the info back when uploading files again?
