Good afternoon/morning/evening everyone,
I've been running into the problem of clients using Windows 7 with CentOS 5.X and file/printer sharing. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the stand samba-3.0.33-x.x.x packages DO NOT provide compatibility with Windows Vista/7. I've had to manually compile samba from source or use the samba3x packages to fix the problem. Just wondering if we're ever going to have the NTLMv2 subroutines compiled into the update/centosplus repo packages.
Thanks,
Hi Andrew,
According to the Samba website, Samba version support Windows 7 Domain Logons started with Samba 3.2.12.
FYI....
---snip---- Samba versions supporting Windows7 Domain Logon
Support for Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 using Samba Domain Controllers has been added to the following versions:
Samba 3.4 or later Samba 3.3.5 or later Samba 3.3.2, 3.3.3 and 3.3.4 (with NOTES) Samba 3.2.12 or later
We successfully tested Windows 7 Ultimate (Build 2600) with Samba 3.4.0, Samba 3.3.7, Samba 3.3.5, Samba 3.3.2, Samba 3.2.15, Samba 3.2.12 and other versions. Also tested Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise with Samba 3.5.6.
If you use older versions, Windows 7 box still can join the Samba Domain but after rebooting, you will receive an error message: "the trust relation between this workstation and the primary domain failed" and no one can logon as any domain user.
