Hello list, I'm running a samba server in AD domain, with some AD users explicitly mapped into local users by "username map = sambauser.map", which is a text file. Problem is found with explicitly mapped user, I can only access home share by //server/<ADusername>, not //server/homes (using windows explorer). This feels wrong because I also tried those AD users not listed in

Greetings list, I just upgraded to samba 3.6.0 trying SMB2. Though Windows 2008 R2 can work with SMB2 shares just fine, I'm unable to access SMB2 shares with mount.cifs or smbclient, even with "-m smb2" specified -- I get this "Unrecognised protocol level smb2", whereas smbclient comes with samba-client-3.6.0-63.1.rpm. So is this supported yet (from client side) or I

Hello list, I've got a question from reading Using Samba 3rd, where it puts: ... the final permission is caculated by below filters in the order used by Samba: 1. Apply any DOS attribute mapping options << I take this as either map DOS attributes to execute bits, or store DOS attributes in extended attributes. Correct? 2. Apply the create mask settings 3. Apply the force

Is there an option to the net command to not have it update DNS in AD? We are joining servers using the net ads join command and it's changing our static DNS entries to dynamic ones which then get deleted when AD does its DNS scavenging. It seems that dynamically updating DNS is the default. The command we're running is: net ads join -U adminuser%adminpasswd Thanks - Mike Mike

I didn't get any answers so I try again: I am using tdbsam as passdb backand. I have added root user with pdbedit. The machine trust account was added on the fly. I have added the user with pdbedit. I have created the user in /etc/passwd. When the user logs in from a W2k and mounts the home-directory I noticed that Samba didn't take the home-directory information from tdbsam, it

Hello, I have Samba server running version 3.0.33-3.29.el5_5.1. The Samba server is a member server of a Windows 2003 domain. Winbind provides authentication. We have a physical directory named hr that is shared as "hr" and is accessible to the HR department. A subdirectory of the hr directory named hrshared is shared as "hrshared" and should be accessible to specific users

Hi list! I deleted completely Samba on my Server and reinstalled it again. Now it seems to work, but I have a little problem: if I try to access the home directory of a user and write something, the owner of the created directory/file is a UID, but not the user itself... Could someone help me? This is the definition of the share in my smb.conf: [homes] comment = Home Directories

We want to copy files with the group in the admin list of the [homes] share. The problem is that the copied files then are owned by root. I know this is normal unix behavior. However we want the copied files to be owned by the user of the homeshare. I read the samba howto section "Users Cannot Write to a Public Share". Although I want to set the owner on the home shares and not on a

Hi! I'm kinda new, so i'm wondering how should i configure [homes] section, so only two of many users (e.g. "user1" and "user2") could see it shared in network (so only those users could access their homes)? thanks in advance, andrej

Resending this as I sent it using wrong sender and it never appeared on the list... I finally have a samba server running with security=ads and user name mapping using smbusers file. Now, to make this perfect I would like to have home directory shares show up using the users AD names instead of the unix names. Is this possible? -- birger
