rpcclient can add / modify / delete on nt groups and nt aliases (domain and local groups) and their members as well. use the latest version (see http://samba.org/cvs.html). these are currently undocumented and work fine. because user accounts are obfuscated i haven't worked out how to do this yet. the cvs-main version of the samba server itself is read-only (except password changing) and it will stay that way for a while. luke (samba team)
With MS's NT small business server, there is also a modem sharing client for 95 and NT which appears to talk to a SMB named pipe named 'MODEMSHRSVC'. I would love to be able to have one pool of modems and have unix able to cu out and uucp in and out and ppp in. How hard would this modem sharing interface be to reverse engineer and is anyone else interested in this kind of functionality? Jason Duerstock System Administrator Applied Automation Techniques
When the world was young, Nagendra Mishr <n@emailsol.com> carved some runes like this:> The problem I run into is that when I try smbclient -L <local host name> > I am > promted for a password. If I hit enter, I see the public shares... If I > enter my password, I get back the badPassword messageSomebody correct me if I'm wrong, but that's what should happen. The above command connects as the guest user, so your real user password should fail.> When I go over to the winNT machine, I could not open the machine without > typing in a password (which did not work.. How could it? It's not even > working on the local machine) Then I changed my smb.conf file to say > share level securety rather then user level.. This let my winNT machine > open the machine and see some public shares... However I still have the > problem of getting into my user's shares.. they can't log in..This is also normal for NT4SP3 with samba running user level security. Before browsing the shares (in explorer) from the NT box, try mapping a share as a local drive in a command prompt using the "Net Use" command. Browsing should work after that.
