similar to: Strange Usermapping problem with 3.0.23b

Hi, I just installed samba 3.0.3pre2 on a FreeBSD 5.2.1-RELEASE Box. It's a ActiveDirectory Member-Server and works so far - with an exception: It seems to me, that the "!"-Syntax in the user mapping file doesn't work any more. The man-page says, that samba will stop on a matching "!<unix-user>=<win-user>" line, but all my users (even if successfully

I'm compiling samba-3.0.23b as I write this. However, after studying the documentation, I have some serious concerns about installing it. The WHATSNEW file says that the method of mapping unix-native uids and gids to SIDs has changed since 3.0.22. As I read this, this would imply that upgrading Samba will cause much breakage because domain users will no longer be able to access files they

Hi Davor, If the mapping of administrator to root is not ideal, I do like the idea of having a specific FileShareAdmin group. But, why chown and not simply chgrp? Thanks!

Hi Rowland, Chown to Administrator seems less flexible than Chgrp to Domain Admins on the face of it. You could add/remove users from the Domain Admins group, which allows/denies them the ability to change the permissions on the share. By changing the owner to Administrator, only those credentials would have that ability, no? What advantages do you predict with the change owner approach? What

Hi Rowland, I'm also not an expert, but with the amount of help you provide on the list, I will defer to you. I'd love to know your rational for prefering the "change ownership to administrator" approach over the "change group to Domain Admins approach". If it's just gut, that's fine too!

Hello all, Sorry about the top-posting. I have added the bit about the linking (YAY!, I'm helping!). Now if we can clear up the ACL issue, this will be a great day! Summary: To edit ACL's from Windows on a Debian Member server, we need to either 1) map the domain admin to root OR 2) give explicit permissions to Domain Admins with a chmod 0755 and chgrp "MYDOM\Domain Admins"

Hello again List, Marc, and Louis! I'm afraid my message from yesterday may have been TL;DR. The short version is as follows: Following the wiki's for AD member server (building from source on Debian Wheezy) and Setting up shares with Windows acls did not give the expected results First, I needed to link libnss_winbind.so to /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu for winbind to work. Marc - may I

Hello again Rowland, list! Sorry for the delayed response, and top posting. To recap: I'd like to complete the member server wiki so that ACLs can be set from windows without taking undocumented steps. The three ways I've found to do this are: 1) map root to administrator. (LPH VanBelle's script uses this option.) 2) chmod 0775 then chgrp "<DOMAIN>\Domain Admins"

Hello, I found another strange problem while migrating from 3.0.22 to 3.0.23x (with 'x' eq 'd' now): I can't access my [homes]-share anymore - if i try, the samba-server prompts me for a password. What *is* working is accessing the same directory as [<username>]... E.g.: \\Sambaserver\matthias works whereas \\Sambaserver\homes works *not* Unfortunaely it

Hi! totally OT... Hoping there is a mailing list or wiki (or other help forum) for GWC, but haven't found one yet. I'm working on converting a bunch of my LPs to CDs, and am using GWC (Gnome Wave Cleaner, or GTK Wave Cleaner) to clean up the noise. It works great, but I can't figure out how to deal with certain types of pressing flaws that create a thump every time around. Anyone

Hello Rowland, Oh dear! I do feel rather silly. :/ Thanks so much for your patience! I think I'll clarify the wiki (which does mention this, but only mentions the local administrator). When I read it, it mentions that there will be mapping for non-domain accounts in TDB. I (quite wrongly) assumed that my domain administrator was not included in this, and, therefore, would need a UIDnumber
