...ver = <the central campus samba server> in its smb.conf file. The problem wound up being that, as a password server, samba closes idle connections after 60 seconds; but as a client, it has no idea how to re-open a connection to its password server! We were stunned, but there it was: in the server_validate() function, if cli->initialised is false, server validation is simply abandoned with an error message. For those trying to diagnose similar errors, look for messages on your password server that report `Closing idle connection'. On the cluster server, you will then see threads reporting:...

...#39;m getting pretty bogged down trying to work out how to do this - it seems like it should be simple - just take the password and username and ask the NT server if it's correct. If anyone could point me in the right direction for doing this, please do. I think I just need to call auth_ok = server_validate(user,domain,pass,passlen,ntpass,ntpasslen); .. but I think I must do a little more than just call the function. What's the difference between pass and ntpass ? Thanks in advance, Rik -- /* ** Rik Hemsley ** Unix Admin ** Keyline Builders Merchants, Glasgow, UK ** X ? Naah. rX :) http://www....

We are using samba with a NT4.0 Primary Domain Controller as a samba password server. Logon validation on the primary domain controller works fine, the NT machine validates the user password. BUT: On the NT PDC the event log shows numerous entries saying: Unknown user or wrong password Did anybody experience this too ???? Rainer von Bongartz /D/I/L/ rainer.von-bongartz@dil.de

...39;t "feel" right. Problem with this is that it seems to cause the server to be unacceptable as a password server by another samba since I get the following when trying to point the new samba server at the old one with a "security = server" and "password server = mi": server_validate: password server MI allows users as non-guest with a bad password. server_validate: This is broken (and insecure) behaviour.

Hi Toni, This error is the result of a test that samba does in the module "server_validate", (in password.c) to check the password server for a bug where NT 4 (some versions) would not correctly set the guest bit. There is currently no smb.conf parameter to allow you to control this behavior, so to change it , you would need to actually hack the password.c module to disable it. Not...

...kdestroy on the client and get a fresh ticket. Being told VERY strenuously that this wasn't a krb problem, I started digging in the samba HOW-TO docs and found this, in a section talking about the differences between "security = share, user, domain, server" ...etc: ? Why does server_validate() simply give up rather than re-establish its connection to the password server? Though I am not fluent in the SMB protocol, perhaps the cluster server process passes along to its client workstation the session key it receives from the password server, which means the password hashes submit...
