I have samba 3 with ldap as a authentication backend. When I use pdbedit -a user everything works ok and the user is adding to the ldap database. But I have problem with exporting smbpasswd to ldap, when I try pdbedit -i smbpasswd:/etc/samba/smbpasswd -e ldapsam I've got a problem that failed to bind to server ldap://localhost Error: Can't contact LDAP server, but my ldap serwer is on

dear list, in the output of pdbedit -L -v heupink I'm getting these errors: convert_string_allocate: Conversion error: Illegal multibyte sequence(???p? ????????) Any ideas where to look..?

Hi folks. I discovered this odd behaviour a few days ago while playing with SAMBA_3 for the first time. The following points apply to samba-3.0.0beta and to cvs-20030807. 1. (tested with tdbsam) If I create a user entry with pdbedit, the domain name field is not set to the domain specified in the configuration file. For me it's getting set to the local machine name. If I logon to a

I have Samba and LDAP up and running, but I'm having problems editing the password policy using pdbedit. (I'm running 3.0.22) I've had a look at the man page for pdbedit but I don't really fully understand what it does in relation to passwd backends. Does pdbedit update just one backend and expect a user to export the updates to other backends? I think I've set up ldap as

Hello everyone, I am having a problem adding a machine account with pdbedit. My setup is the latest samba (3.0.21b) compiled from source on Solaris 10, SUN's latest JES' Directory Server.

Please help, I am experiencing a weird error when trying to join a winXP Pro workstation to my samba3 + LDAP Domain. When I specify the account to on my system that has uid 0, I receive a user account cannot be found error. Now I know this isnt the case since I can browse the samba server with this account.

Hi ! I cant add any user (person, and machine) to my domain made with samba-3.0.1, openldap-2.0.27, new samba.schema, smbldap-tools-0.8.3. I have to migrate from ldap_compact to ldap backend.

I'm just migrating a whole samba-installations ffrom old 2.2 to 3.0 with LDAP. I was successfully able to migrate all useraccounts with smbldap-useradd but now I'm stuck with the machine-accounts. All machines are part of the domain and they should be able to logon the new server without noticing any difference. I can add them with smbldap-useradd -w but the resulting ldap-entry does

Previously our smb.conf file included the line passdb backend = ldapsam:ldap://server.domain.net/ With this line in place the connection to the LDAP server fails, and peoples shares drop off every few minutes. I

I am having a problem getting users that were added in smbldap-useradd to be able to login. After I add them they are visible, but you can see I get this error - pdb_get_group_sid: Failed to find Unix account for test10 I believe that this has something to do with nss_ldap. because doing a getent passwd, it doesn't display any smb info. Any debugging info or help would be amazing, I'm
