Recently I migrated to samba4 in my company. So far so good. debian 6 samba4.1.0pre1 bind9.9.1-P1 (working pretty well. it even updates the reverse zone and no problems at all with the forwarder) ntp-4.2.6p5 All services authenticating with samba4: mail (postfix + dovecot + squirrelmail), jabber (openfire), proxy (squid), even MS Sql server 2000, Net Support Manager and GFI Endpoint Security.

I've just installed samba4 beta 7 with defaults and everything went OK. As I download bind9.9.1 tarball and compiled it I had to follow steve's advice: to declare we'll be using DLZ_DLOPEN_VERSION 2 in /samba-master/source4/dns_server/dlz_minimal.h /*#ifdef BIND_VERSION_9_8 #define DLZ_DLOPEN_VERSION 1 #else #define DLZ_DLOPEN_VERSION 2 #endif */ #define DLZ_DLOPEN_VERSION 2 I

Hi I have s4 with bind9 working fine. I see that it sets up a forward zone without using zone files (is that the dlz bit?) Is it possible to get it to produce a reverse zone? Thanks, Steve pp lcb

Hello: I would like to know what is wrong in my configuration. I can't see this server in network neighborhood. samba 3.5.6 joined to my active directory domain. [global] # message command = /bin/sh -c '/usr/bin/linpopup "%f" "%m" %s; rm %s' & security = ADS netbios name = dos realm = EPEPM.CUPET.CU password server = ad.epepm.cupet.cu workgroup =

I followed the Howto http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba4/HOWTO Using: -Samba4 alpha15 -Bind9.8.0 When I added an XP PC (192.168.123.244) to my domain I got this in syslog: May 11 12:04:18 samba4 named[10705]: client 192.168.123.244#1061: update 'mydomain.com/IN' denied May 11 12:04:18 samba4 named[10705]: tkey.c:486: ENSURE(result == (((1) << 16) + 28) || result == 0) failed,

I provisioned using the defaults. So now I'm using the internal DNS server. Since I've been having some issues with it (see Internal dns server stops forwarding) I would like to change to bind9, but now I don't have the files samba4 creates to use with it because I started using the internal dns server. How can I switch from internal dns server to bind9??? Cheers, Felix.

I followed this http://linuxcostablanca.blogspot.com/2012/01/samba-4-ubuntu.html and got dynamic dns updates working in forward zone. any ideas to get it working in the reverse zone too? By the way, nice article Steve. Best regards, Felix.

I have read in the samba http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba_AD_DC_HOWTO that you can start samba just typing samba at the command promt, but what are the commands to stop and restart the service? thanks

Hello to everyone >From one day to another my internal dns server in samba4 stopped forwarding queries. It was resolving well my domain. I had to restart samba4 then it worked fine. Cheers, Felix.

Could you, please, give me some clue on how to configure dlz in Bind to work with Samba4? I installed samba4 from git check out from a week ago, then I provisioned it but DNS is not working. Best regards, Felix.

git checkout dd5868d when I try to provision I get the following: Populating ForestDnsZones partition bin/tdbbackup: /home/samba-master/bin/shared/private/libtdb.so: version `SAMBA_4.0.0ALPHA18_DEVELOPERBUILD' not found (required by bin/tdbbackup) Failed to setup database for BIND, AD based DNS cannot be used Traceback (most recent call last): File "./source4/setup/provision",

Hello. How can I have my windows clients synchronized with my Samba4 domain controller without using startup scripts?? I've played with Group Policies the same way they are configured when a w2k3 server is used and I couldn't make it this way. I also tried installing ntpd. I'm using Samba4 alpha 15 in a Debian Lenny Box. Any suggestions?? Thanks in advance. Regards, Felix.

Hello. I noticed that any domain user can delete the content of the shared folder sysvol in the domain controller from a windows client. How can I avoid that? Greetings, Felix

Reading Whatsnew.txt in samba I understand that If I use s3fs, as it is set by default in the provision step, I won't be able to modify GPOs later, right? So I have a couple of questions: - What's the advantage of using s3fs over ntvfs in new installations? - If I'm planning to deploy a new Domain, probably needing to change GPOs later, should I select ntvfs??? Best regards, Felix

Hello: I'm using samba4.1.0pre1. I'm having some issues with users whose cn field length is shorter than 5 characters in specific with the openfire server (jabber server). It was working fine when I had a windows 2003 server as a domain controller and once I migrated to samba4, users with short cn fields get an authentication error: Not authorized. Is there any limitation on the length

I must set up a backup server for failover and have used tdbbackup to create backup files from the functioning primary server. I then copied the files to the backup server and used tdbbackup to restore all the databases, along with copying the smb.conf and other text files from /etc/samba. This does not seem to work and I was hoping someone could assist. Primary server is RHEL 5.4 with Samba

> Hello Felix, > > Sorry for the very late answer, > > Well I remade a test today, in gpmc.msc (group policy management console), I have no errors from Windows about the ACLs of the folders for my policies. Thanks a lot for your answers, Matthieu and Christopher. It makes me happy to know that you guys don't forget to answer the questions of samba users. My first solution was

Hi list, I have a quick question about the priority mapping of tos bits. The manpage of tc-prio shows a nice table with tos bits and the band they are mapped to: TOS Bits Means Linux Priority Band ------------------------------------------------------------ 0x0 0 Normal Service 0 Best Effort 1 0x2 1 Minimize Monetary Cost 1 Filler

IMHO, the priomap explanation in the 9.2.1.1. of the LARTC HOWTO is not clear enough. I only understood it''s real behavior until I read this document from Russell Stuart: http://ace-host.stuart.id.au/russell/files/tc/doc/tc/priority.txt So, based in this information, I''ve prepared an alternative priomap explanation for this section of the HOWTO, if you like it as it is I could

Hello list, We are facing a bug with Windows DNS MMC on a Windows 2008R2 DC.
