Automatic change of machine passwords seems to brake trust relationship for Windows 7 clients
Hi Peter, thanks for your detailed instructions for a workaround! Just to get you right: Your proposals include changes for the win7- clients _and_ the samba domain itself, correct?

samba and ms server 2008
http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Windows7 I would be pretty sure that if Windows 7 doesn't work with Samba 3.0.x that Windows 2008 won't either. Rather than compiling samba 3.4 or 3.5 from source I would go with Fedora Core 11 (samba 3.3.x) or some other more up-to-date linux distro that has a newer versio... 10 Aug 2010 03:41

[Samba] samba and ms server 2008
Hi I am about to set up a Centos server with samba and an MS server 2008 for a new customer. The MS server is required because he has an MSSQL application. The samba shares will be for everything else. I've previously set up centos and redhat servers as domain members with a 2003 pdc before I get stuck, are ther... 9 Aug 2010 15:41
