Hi all,
I'm here again ith a non-strictly samba related problem, but I hope
someone in the list has already faced and perhaps solved it...
I've got a 60 clients network (most Windows 200 and XP) organized in a
domain. The pdc and bdc run on Fedora 2 + samba 3.0.7-2.FC2 +
openldap-2.1.29-1, and everything works fine.
To limit the use of internet bandwidth I installed a Windows 2003 server
acting as SUS (Software Update Services) server (for those who don't
know it... it's something similar to an internal Windows Update server)
The problem is I can't configure the clients to point to the new server
instead of the official Windows Update servers. If the domain would have
been Windows-based I would have done it with a group policy, but I have
no possibility to do it with Samba.
I've tried to remotely modify the registry keys on the clients, but with
no success (the change requires also a local policy change, not just a
registry key change, and I don't know how to do it remotely).
Has anyone of you guys ever tried a setup like this?
Sorry if I'm a little bit OT...
Thanks!
Bye... Mattia
