similar to: Group Mapping Problems with Samba 3.0.2a & OpenLDAP 2.2.6

Hi all, I am running samba 3.0.6 on Linux and am wondering if anyone knows if it is possible to delete a print driver from the driver database? I have around 20 printers running off of this print server and occasionally we remove all of a certain type of printer. Also, for some reason, the drivers sometimes seem to become corrupt and it would be nice to be able to entirely remove a driver and

Hi all, I am running samba 3.0.6. I am having an issue on my print server regarding how the printer ends up registering itself on the Windows clients. We have a machine named "bob", "bob" has an alias both in DNS and in the netbios name in Samba of "printserver", "bob" has an IP address of 192.168.1.1. In a seemingly random fashion sometimes when I add

Hi all, I've been working on shell scripts that allow to manage ldap accounts (users, groups, machines). They are similar to the smbldap-tools but do not need PERL to work (and so on...) and are *very* simple to configure - they may be a good alternative. The only tools you need are standard ldap client commands (ldapadd, ldapdelete, ldapmodify, ldapsearch). The scripts can be used as

Hello, Concerning the upcoming 2.2.3 release of Samba with LDAP support. Question 1: Is it possible that you define multiple ldap servers in the option "ldap server ="? In the event that one LDAP server is down, the next LDAP server defined can take over. If not, no authentication is possible if the LDAP server is not available? Question 2: Is there any fallback possible to a

Folks-- I'm working with an old system I set up to copy files from one local directory to another. I was using rdist for this, but I would prefer to shift it over to rsync. The one thing I'm missing is the trivial ability to force the group owernship of the destination files to a specific group. A read through the manpage and various searches on the web do not turn up any helpful hints

When logs (e.g. /var/log/maillog) are rotated (e.g. to /var/log/maillog-YYYYMDD) is there a way via systemd or whatever to assign read permission to a specific group? Right now, for example - ls -l maillog* -rw------- 1 root root 3105240 Mar 13 22:04 maillog -rw------- 1 root root 1079031 Feb 24 04:39 maillog-20190224 -rw------- 1 root root 7237640 Mar 1 12:59 maillog-20190228 -rw------- 1

Hello, I have a strange problem with Samba and LDAP backend with the statement valid users = @group. The valid users = @username works great, but the @group oder +group statement does not work. But the users in the @group does never get access to the shares! I'm using Samba 3.2.5-4 on Debian Lenny the LDAP server is located at an Debian Etch system. But this ldap server works quite good.

Hi, I've a question about the syntax of the valid users option. Any help is greatly appreciated! Here is the Background: samba 3.0.4 Linux as Domain Member Active Directory, not in Native Mode Compiler opions: --with-winbind --with-pam --with-smbmount The goal is to authenticate via the Windows Domain and allow access via Windows groups. The syntax in my smb.conf looks like this:

Dear Friends, Is It Possible to Make a *Share* Visible to a List of Users *Only* ? e.g. If have shares Likes Account, Sales, Support Then I would Like make respective *share* visible *only* to persons in respective dept. Thanks and Best Regards.

Interestingly, I've now found that (on my current DCs, running 4.18.5), ldbsearch *does* seem to return the

Hi, Is it possible to request a new feature that will help out some of us doing many mirrors, that is each mirror has their own system uid for security puroposes, it would be of great advantage (to I'm sure very many) to have an option to "save as user" <some_user> rather than have the files/directories only owned by the mirror host side owner/group, or by root. maybe

Hi, I'm running Samba Version 3.0.25c on Solaris 10 8/07 on X86 hardware. It's successfully joined to AD. But, and there always is a but, if : * A user is a member of SomeGroup * and the share alllows SomeGroup to access it * and SomeGroup is NOT what the user has set as their Primary Group in Active Directory then * Samba will recognize that the user can access the share * but,

Hi all ! I've been using group mapping for a few weeks and found some bugs... For three of them, I tried to develop a small patch. I don't know Samba code very well and this is my first patch, so there could be errors :-p I hope my investigations will be useful :) * Platform : Here is what I used : Debian 3.0r1, Samba 3.0.2rc1 - PDC, OpenLDAP 2.1.23 as backend smb.conf extract :

I'm quite confused by this one, as I can't see how this would happen.. but after upgrading my DCs from 4.11.10 to 4.18.5, LDAP searches don't seem to work if they use the :1.2.840.113556.1.4.1941: modifier, aka LDAP_MATCHING_RULE_IN_CHAIN. (Yes, it was a fairly big version jump.. Yes, I should have upgraded much earlier.. Yes, I know 4.19.x is out now as well) Here's a search that

Hi guys, any CUPS / Samba experts out there? The CUPS printing guide is a horrendous maze of options. I've got nearly there but I've got one thing wrong and I don't know where to look. I set up our two printers (HP K5400s) using the GUI printer tool. Both print the test page just fine. I set up the [printers] and [print$] shares and can browse to the printers from Windows (XP for me)

The background: I host one of the unofficial slackware mirrors & push to a high speed (unlisted) mirror that several other unofficials use for pulls. To save time/disk/bandwidth I use a custom script to hardlink the trees prior to pushing the updates to said unlisted mirror. The commandline (linewrap from hell, sorry): (note: username/password/hostname/modulename deliberately obfuscated)
