hi, i have compiled samba 2.2.5 with ldap support and pam support. will samba still search for users in smbpasswd file? because i want to use ldap, but for first just to test samba i only want 1 or 2 users in the smbpasswd file? when i want to add user with smbpasswd command i get and LDAP error, that is understandble, can i start samba, so that it doesn't use LDAP (how?), or should i recompile it? thanks, adriaan
You have to recompile samba. There's no support for smbpasswd when using LDAP and vice versa. greetz ----- Original Message ----- From: <Adriaan.Putter@aventis.com> To: <samba@lists.samba.org> Sent: Friday, July 12, 2002 10:38 AM Subject: [Samba] adding users> hi, > > i have compiled samba 2.2.5 with ldap support and pam > support. will samba still search for users in smbpasswd file? > because i want to use ldap, but for first just to test > samba i only want 1 or 2 users in the smbpasswd file? > > when i want to add user with smbpasswd command i get and > LDAP error, that is understandble, can i start samba, so > that it doesn't use LDAP (how?), or should i recompile > it? > > > thanks, > > adriaan > > -- > To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the > instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba >
Hello, I have done some research on prior samba threads, but haven't been able to find the light. I have setup a new samba server and am trying to add users for user level security on RH 8. I have created /etc/smbpasswd using the mkscript and am trying to change passwords to no avail. When I try to give a user a password, I keep getting the following error: Failed to find entry for user <user>. Failed to modify password entry for user <user>. Can anyone provide some insight to this? Thanks. __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful. Affordable. Sign up now. http://mailplus.yahoo.com
Hi, I've isntalled samba, and I have problems (I have read the docs, etc...). I can't add samba users. The smbadduser program outputs the following: root@chacha:~ > smbadduser okovacs:okovacs No such map passwd.byname. Reason: Request arguments bad ERROR: okovacs Not in passwd database SKIPPING... user okovacs is listed in the /etc/passwd. I have a SuSE 7.2 system, however I have installed samba from SuSE 7.3 rpm. What do I do wrong?
