HI, I am working as research assistant at South dakota University, in Computing Services Dept. Right now we are working on Suse Linux, We are trying to configure Samba Server on a linux machine. But when we try to open the file/folders in Windows NT machine. Then it ask for user name and Password. Where the global parametrs are set to open to all and all password are set to NO. Now I dont understand what eactly it is looking for, because I tried to sign in as a user account and as root on linux machine, but I failed. I will appreciate if I could get some help from you. It will be nice if we could talk on phone. I may call u if I get your phone number. Thanks, Jai _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
Which version of Samba? I assume you are trying to access a share on the Linux box from an NT box? If so, did you create the machine account on the Linux machine for the NT box?

I could not find ANYWARE in the manual how to get a shared Dir on a Win2K machine to be Read-Write to any user other than ROOT... Please tell me how to do this. Thanks in advance, Ashley.McDonald
How are the settings on the win2k machine? Do they allow anyone but root read-write access? Post the relevant parts of you smb.conf file (global and the share section.)

Hello all, Can somebody tell me why the following output is given when winbind is used for passwd and groups in /etc/nsswitch.conf. It works fine when winbind is taken off. #passwd root Supported configurations for passwd management are as follows: passwd: files passwd: files ldap passwd: files nis passwd: files nisplus passwd: compat passwd: compat AND passwd_compat: ldap OR passwd_compat: nisplus Please check your /etc/nsswitch.conf file Permission denied smbclient -U% -L localhost gives a NT_LOGON_FALIURE. wbinfo-u and wbinfo-g reports a domain lookup failure. I'm using Solaris 8 and smbd 2.2.3....i'm confused. Please help!!!! Thanks in advance
Hi Thamara, this is a common issue with both Solaris 8 and HP-UX. For security reasons (I believe) both of these os'es have chosen to limit the 'pluggability' of 'methods' for nis stores to 'known' methods. This in part prevents things like administrators locking themselves completely out of their machines by mispelling or putting in nsswitch lines that can NOT be satisfied. Unless the vendor agrees to change this policy and make changes is the os code modules (like libpam_unix), I'm afraid you're stuck with this. One of the list members hacked around this by wrapping the 'passwd' command with a script that moved the nsswitch.conf file with the 'offending lines' out of the way, executing the passwd command, and then moving it back in place.... Hope this helps, Don -----Original Message----- From: Thamara Wanigatunga [mailto:thamara@jkcs.slt.lk] Sent: Monday, March 18, 2002 1:10 AM To: samba@lists.samba.org Subject: [Samba] HELP!!

I have recently installed Samba 2.2.5 and have set it up , my only problem is the password issue. I can see my HOST on my win2k box, but when it asks for user and pass, I enter it and it says error wrong pass. I was wondering if someone could lend me a quick hand in sorting this out. I can send my smb.conf if needed. Thanks in advance for any help. Regards, Chris

Have you really done it right? Do you have encrypt passwords = yes in global? Try this,then: # Global parameters [global] security = SHARE guest account = ftp [AllFiles] comment = All Files path = / read only = no guest ok = yes On Fri, Aug 16, 2002 at 10:05:21PM -0400, gcc wrote:> I have tried that already and it doesnt seem to work.

Don't know what ipnat is. Odd name, win2k, for your samba server. Could that be reserved or somethin'? I'd look into the logs and I'd watch tcpdump's output.

Hi, I am trying to use samba 2.2.6 (Under RedHat 7.3) to replace a NT file server. But I would like to have the folder and file security as offered by NT. I also like to validate the domain users via NT 4.0 SP6a domain. I am having hard time making it work. Please help.......... My smb.conf file looks like this. [global] workgroup = AMSIDOMN netbios name = ISLINUX ; allow trusted domains = yes ; nt acl support = yes server string = Test Server %v log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m max log size = 50 security = domain password server = * encrypt passwords = yes smb passwd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192 dns proxy = no large readwrite = Yes #============================ Share Definitions ============================= [data] comment = Data Folder path = /usr/data read only = no create mask = 0765 directory mask = 0777 delete readonly = yes writable = yes Samba server joined the NT domain successfully. I can view the samba server and the data folder but it still asks me for user name and password when I am trying to access the data folder. I would like to maintain the user name and password only on NT domain controller. Also I would like to optimize this samba server for Microsoft network. I am not sure what I am doing wrong. Forgive me, I am a new user as far as samba and Linux goes. Thanks in advance, Rana Huq -------------- next part -------------- HTML attachment scrubbed and removed
Hi! I have just recently installed samba 2.2.5 in solaris 8.0 . Everything seems to be fine. I can access the samba server from my windows client using the ip address, but when i try to access it with netbios name, it fails. Gives the message network path not found. What could be the problem? following are the entry in smb.conf workgroup = icimod netbios name = icimodfs netbios aliases = icimodfs domain admin group = samadmin username map = /usr/local/samba/private/admins.map host msdfs = yes local master = yes os level = 99 domain master = yes preferred master = yes domain logons = yes logon script = winlogon.bat Please help!!! saisab
