Hello, I have searched hi and lo for a solution to being unable to change passwords from Windows 2000.

Hi Samba people I saw this as a problem in the archives about a month ago but no solution ? I'm running samba 2.2.10 on Solaris 8. We have a script to replace /usr/bin/passwd which changes the NIS passwd and then uses smbpasswd to change the user's smb password to the same thing. Some users are getting : NIS password changed for diane on cauchy machine 127.0.0.1 rejected the password

Hello, I am trying to change my passwd via windows password utility.

I am trying to build 3.0.14a and use it's smbpasswd binary to change passwords on a remote debian woody samba install -- the samba install on the remote debian machine is listed as '2.2.3a-15' I can use the previous smbpasswd binary from the same version on the client linux machine to smbpasswd -r and change user passwords, but the new version from 3.0.14a does not work against the

Hi, we have a system (Debian sarge) that uses LDAP for user authentication, via pam. We also have virtual users by using a static userdb [1], using the directory structure /var/lib/dovecot/postoffice/%u (i.e., a directory under /var/lib/dovecot/postoffice with the name of the user). The directory /var/lib/dovecot/postoffice belongs to postoffice:mail. IMAP folders, indexes and stuff go here;

Hi there! I''m trying to spec out some code that will set the smtp_settings in a custom ActiveMailer object. Basically I want to check that if my configuration object has the right smtp_server, that the ActiveMailer object gets set up correctly. So, my spec looks like this: it "uses smtp server if config says so" do

We recently migrated from WindowsNT to Samba 3.0.2a. After about two months, we have started to notice a weird problem. As user's passwords expire, they are prompted to change them. When they attempt to do so from Windows, they get a message saying "You do not have permission to change your password". However, the password IS changed. Both the Samba and LDAP Linux passwords are

I installed a samba server about a week ago for a client and have been having some trouble with it. The two problems that occur are: 1. The "Microsoft mail postoffice" occasionally has files with deny_all locks on them that prevent other users from sending email to the user. My first impression was that this was an Outlook issue, but rebooting the entire (client) computer does not

Hello, I'm new to samba. Trying to get it running on Solaris on Intel using NIS+. I configured it with the --with-nisplus --with-nisplus-home and --with-automount. I don't seem to be able to get authentication to work. I've created the smbpasswd file from my nis+ tables, set the perms per the docs (encryption.txt to name one) and when I try to run smbpasswd to set a password for

Railers, I''m trying to figure out why invocations to my Web service URLs work with Rails 1.1.2 but fail both with Rails 1.1.4 (and 1.1.5) and when I apply the new 1.1.2 security patch to Rails 1.1.2. It looks like they are failing with SOAP clients but succeeding with XML-RPC clients. The URL that used to work is of the form http://localhost:3000/my_controller/ServiceName/api. When I

Hi, I would like to use Dovecot not only for virtual mboxes, but also for local users. In other words, I would like to use different "mail_location"s depending on "passdb" "passwd-file" versus "passwd". I need that as the smtp daemon I am using (david parsons' postoffice smtp server) serves both but is only able to process messages through

I've used oplocks = no for a long time now, because of the famous "oplock_break" error, but I decided to give 2.0.7 a try.
