Does this relate in any way to the Samba authentication with Windows
2003SP1? I'm still having trouble getting my samba machines authenticating
users. I even installed the latest versions of Samba (14a and 15pre).

Murad,
Why not just share a folder on the local user's workstation? That
doesn't require the changes on the DC, and you can always sync the
folders back to the DC if you need some backup.

Hi All,
We have had arrival of new scanner/printer/copier in office. It uses SMB
to scan files to shared folders on our W2003 network. In order for it to
work however, I have had to do the following;
1. From Administrative Tools open Domain Controller Security Policy 2.
Smile 3. Select \Security Settings\Local Policies\Security Options
folder. 4. In the details pane, double-click Microsoft network server:
Digitally sign communications (always), and then click Disabled to
prevent SMB packet signing from being required. 5. Click OK. 6. In the
details pane, double-click Domain member: Digitally encrypt or sign
secure channel data (always), and then click Disabled to prevent secure
channel signing from being required. 7. Click OK.
Before that, the scan would fail to be sent to the server in question.
What are the implications of this--given that we do not ostensibly use
SMB for anything else.
I've heard scare stories of SMB man in the middle attacks and was under
the impression that this is what these specific security settings were
pertaining to but am not sure.
There are other options for the scanning ie ftp/email but neither would
work as we cannot get approval for cost of ftp server nor can the email
system take the file sizes that are often req'd by scans our users make.
I can see there will be advice against having shared user folders etc on
DC's too but the big boss wants more from less if you see what I mean.
Kind Regards
Murad Talukdar
