    Okay, the netstat results are tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:25 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 192.168.0.7:22 192.168.0.4:1259 ESTABLISHED tcp 0 0 192.168.0.7:22 192.168.0.4:1257 ESTABLISHED unix 2 [ ACC ]...

    Bind address error when attempting to start sendmail

    Hey guys, I have sendmail running on one machine. I still need to work to get it configured the way I want, but that's another issue. My problem is that I have a development box and I'm trying to run sendmail on that machine as well. In both cases, I'm just sending mail. Also, they're both RH...

    Don't know how to connect to MS Exchange server via pop3 client

    Hi guys From what I understand, if you want to retrieve mail from a mail server you connect to a pop3 server. If you want to send mail, you connect to an smtp server. My boss has this pop3 software and wants to be able to connect to our exchange server. With this is a username and password. For...

    Problems using mod_rewrite

    Hi guys. I have rh 9.0 and am running apache 1.3.27. I want to force all connections to my webserver to be https and read that mod_rewrite works well in this instance. After messing with my httpd.conf file, I finally got my webserver to recognize my .httaccess file (before it was just ignoring...

    Trying to adjust "From" in email with genericstable...

    ...which took me awhile to get working. In any event, it now works. However, it doesn't quite do what I want. Before, mail was being sent out as user [user@machine.hostname.net] Now, with my generics table feature, I'm getting user [differentuser@someotherdomain.com] What I'd prefer is...

    Backup domain controller to standalone server

    Yeah, I probably won't be able to take the route of moving exchange to another server. Right now, we have it on a dell server (not necessary for 20 people, but some consulting firm convinced my boss before I worked there that it was needed). Basically, my boss would feel like crap seeing the...

    Backup domain controller to standalone server

    No, I don't have any problems either with ours on our bdc. However, you lose flexibility. This machine will never be able to join another domain. Which is the main reason that I want to demote the machine to a standalone server. I configured a samba pdc running redhat linux 9.0 and want to move...

    Backup domain controller to standalone server

    Hi guys, I'm a unix/linux guy and I want to switch everybody from a nt domain to samba running on linux. The problem is that the mail server is running on the backup domain controller (the nt stuff was set up long before I started working here). My questions are: 1. How do you demote a bdc to a...

    Password aging

    I'm using samba 2.2.7a as a pdc. I'm switching about 20 pcs over to this domain today and want to implement password aging. How do I go about doing that? I have a ton of documentation and I don't even see it mentioned.

    Netlogon script does not execute

    Never mind. Although I have samba running as root, when I log on as a user, that user executes the script, which makes sense. So I did not have the permissions set properly for that user.

    Netlogon script does not execute

    Hey guys. I'm trying to set up a rh 9.0 box with samba 2.2.7a as a pdc. I'm able to log into the domain and even print to the samba printer. However, my netlogon script is not executing. The pertinent info in my smb.conf file is ... logon script = netlogon.bat ... time server = yes ...

    How do I copy profile info to samba

    I finally got samba working as a pdc on rh 9.0 and samba 2.2.7a. However, we currently run an nt domain and everybody has their client machines set up just so. How do I copy everyone's desktop settings, outlook setup, etc., so that when they log into the new samba domain their desktop looks and...

    "A duplicate name exists on the network" error

    Okay, I got things working, but I'm not really sure what can be learned from this. I did the following: 1. completely removed the smbpasswd file and started from scratch. (I did this because of the corrupt db message) 2. Eliminated the add user script directive in smb.conf (because it didn't...

    "A duplicate name exists on the network" error

    Here's the latest. I completely removed the trust account for the xp machine and added the add user script directive in smb.conf. Here's what I got in the logs: smb_create_user: Running the command `/usr/sbin/useradd -d /dev/null - g machines -s /bin/false -M hercules$' gave 6 What does...

    "A duplicate name exists on the network" error

    I tried that. I got the following in the logs build_sam_account: smbpasswd database is corrupt! username hercules$ not in unix passwd database! Now here's what I've done recently. I originally tried adding my machine manually. Then I added the add user script directive. I just...

    "A duplicate name exists on the network" error

    Alas, that has not fixed the problem. At first, I had nothing for the wins support directive. So I took your advice and tried wins support = yes. That did not solve it. I was actually kind of skeptical that it would. You see, after joining the domain and rebooting, the error shows up right away...

    "A duplicate name exists on the network" error

    I'm Completely stumped at this point. I got a separate firewall and didn't even connect it to the network. I connected my samba box and one xp machine to it. Once again, I was able to switch over to the new domain. Once again, it prompted me to reboot. Once again, upon reboot, I was greeted with...

    "A duplicate name exists on the network" error

    The first two links were some of the (MANY) resources that I used when doing this. Yes, I downloaded the registry update and configured my policies. Remember, I'm able to join the samba domain. The problem arises after I join and am told to reboot. At the usual log in screen after rebooting, I...

    "A duplicate name exists on the network" error

    I'm attempting to set up samba as a pdc on my network (on a rh linux 9.0 box). I've followed steps that I've seen in numerous resources, used testparm to confirm my smb.conf is syntactically correct, used the smbclient command to connect from my unix box, and even changed domains to my new one...
