similar to: SWAT: Non privileged user cannot access secrets.tdb

It appears that there is some setup missing for handling the -P option to commands (via popt_common_credentials_callback()). I was trying to use the example file examples/printing/smbprint.sysv which suggested using the "-P" option to smbclient. I am always getting an error that "/secrets.tdb" can't be opened. I think that what is mis-ordered is that secrets_init() is

I am a Mac user and am only using Samba to the extent that it is installed with Mac OS X. I am simply trying to share files between a Windows PC and my Mac laptop. I'm hoping that the error message below concerning the secrets.tdb file may be meaningful to someone on this list. I haven't had any luck yet with a similar post on Apple's forum. Before I upgraded to Leopard, I

I am trying to integrate a Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 server into our Windows 2003 domain. I was able to successfully join it to our domain, but the WBINFO commands keep failing when I start SMB and WINBIND. I looked at the log files and found this interesting entry in the /var/log/samba/winbindd.log file: [2006/11/29 21:49:11, 1] nsswitch/winbindd.c:main(864) winbindd version 3.0.10-1.4E.9

Hi everyone, In the last few days I've spended hours and hours on the web surching for a solution to my problems. Eventhough it looked like there where several other people having the same problem I couldn't find a way to solve it. Therefore I'm hoping that one of you could help me with the following problem. I've installed Samba 3.0.14a on RedHat 9.0. Samba is working perfectly.

IT WORKS!!!!!!!!!!! But before I say what I did... yall have to promise not to laugh! (MAH!! I HEAR YOU!!) ... anyone ever heard of.... /etc/rc.d/init.d/xinetd restart I can tell you from experience that 'killall -HUP xinetd' is NOT the same. I can also say that nobody will find that command line entry in "Using Samba". To show my appreciation to the groups involved,

On a fresh installed Illumos/Solaris in a VirtualBox Guest I get the following error after starting up samba 4.10: [2019/04/01 09:51:41.112485, 0] ../../lib/tdb_wrap/tdb_wrap.c:64(tdb_wrap_log) tdb(/var/samba/lock/gencache.tdb): tdb_open_ex: tdb_mutex_init failed for /var/samba/lock/gencache.tdb: Device busy [2019/04/01 09:51:41.141396, 0] ../../lib/util/become_daemon.c:136(daemon_ready)

Hi, I'm a linux newbie so be nice. I have recently installed a Smoothwall Express 2 firewall with fixes7, and am trying to get a Samba server to run on this machine. I compiled the lastest stable release of samba on this machine and it seemed to go fine. I then compiled xinetd and configured the xinetd.conf file for SWAT. Using a putty SSH session I ran the the command xinetd -d to

Ok, I should be able to start swat with xinetd, but I can't seem to get anything to start. 1. How do I tell if swat is running (other than trying to browse to aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd:901) 2. Can someone give me an idea of what and where I need commands for xinetd. Server is RH7.2, Samba 2.2.3a, following file "swat" is in /etc/xinetd.d/ ## /etc/xinetd.d/swat service swat { port

Hello All Samba-list Members, I have installed a Samba 2.2.7, the samba-latest.tar.gz, as a PDC on a Redhat8.0 GNU/Linux server. ( Of course, I first uninstalled the original samba that came with the Redhat installation CDs by rpm -e samba*.) The installation was successful. Then I modified /etc/services and /etc/xinetd.d/swat as suggested in the installation document uncompressed from

Hello: I have samba-2.2.5-1 running in RedHat 7.3, but I get the page cannot be displayed message when I go to http://sambaserver:901 My /etc/etc/xinetd.d/swat file looks as below. I have removed only_from = localhost and changed disable = yes to no service swat { port = 901 socket_type = stream wait = no user = root server = /usr/sbin/swat

I have downloaded, build and installed samba-4.0.9 from source on two separate boxes running RHEL6.4. My problem is that despite having identical configurations, swat is running on one server and not on the other. Here is my xinetd conf service swat { port = 901 socket_type = stream wait = no only_from = 192.168.1.0/24 user = root server =

Hi Sean, I had this problem when I upgraded our servers to RedHat 7. In RedHat 7 they changed from running the inetd.d to running xinetd.d. This is the daemon that figures out what programs to start when a port is accessed. Port 901 is for swat, this is configured in your /etc/services file. In the /etc/xinetd.d/ directory you'll find a file called swat. Edit this file so it looks

Hitting a big mystery here. I've configured samba properly but I would like to run swat. The /etc/xinetd.d/swat file contains: service swat { disable = no port = 901 socket_type = stream wait = no only_from = 127.0.0.1 user = root server = /usr/sbin/swat log_on_failure +=

hola, habla usted ingles? bueno, revise bien que 'xinetd' este instalado y corriedo como servicio: ps -ae | grep xinetd si resulta que si, entonces revise el documento de configuracion de swat (/etc/xinetd.d/swat): # default: off # description: SWAT is the Samba Web Admin Tool. Use swat \ # to configure your Samba server. To use SWAT, \ # connect to port 901

I know there have been previous threads about this, but I don't think they match my problem. I have the xinetd script provided by the Samba.org 2.2.6 binary RPM, and when I enable it and reload xinetd, I see xinetd listening in a `netstat --ip -lnp` command. When I point my browser at http://localhost:901/ I'm given an Alert dialog window stating "Document contained no

Hi all, I've googled and discovered that others have had this problem, but no one has given sufficient details about how they solved it, so I'm still stuck. As preface, I'm a high school teacher, and although I teach programming, my sysadmin experience is minimal, so please be explicit in your replies. I've been following the instructions in the O'Reilly Samba book for

Im trying to enable the swat utility so that I can manipulate the smb.conf file. I have done this on my PowerMac G4 computer, and now Im trying to set it up on my iBook - but it gives me the following error, xinetd[pid]: bind failed (address already in use (errno = 48). service = swat xinetd[pid]: {init_services} no services. Exiting... I have no idea what is going on, Im doing

I'm having problems validating when using swat on the localhost. The server is RH Linux 7.3. I'm using encrypted passwords and I'm able to connect to points using Windows products, etc; however, when I http://localhost:901, I get the login dialog, but it won't accept the root account or password. It tells me that the "Authorization failed". I did configure the
