OK. This is becoming very frustrating!! I have Samba 2.2.3a installed on a Sun running Solaris 8. Winbind is installed and seems to be working fine. My PC users can map the Samba share via their NT domain account information (PDC is an NT4 box). As soon as I copy nsswitch/libnss_winbind.so to /lib and create the symbolic links (nss_winbind.so.1 & nss_winbind.so.2) my PC users can no longer authenticate. Also, has anyone been able to get Telnet authentication via winbind to work on Solaris 8?? I am running up against a serious deadline. HELP!!

You know, John, if you need to get something working fast, you can manually configured dummy user accounts on your system and not use winbind at all. As long as their is a password entry for the NT user, it should be able to authenticate off the domain controller. I'm only using winbind so that I don't have to maintain two lists of users (the NT user list and the password file). The only "problem" you might find is that all the user own fields will be owned by the UNIX equivalent user account, not by the NT Account it self (i.e. :owned by UNIXMACHINE\USERNAME rather then DOMAIN\USERNAME). -Dan -----Original Message----- From: Helt, John [mailto:JHelt@scrippsnetworks.com] Sent: Friday, February 15, 2002 9:56 AM To: 'samba@lists.samba.org' Subject: [Samba] Winbind issues!

How do you set up who can access what share if you use winbindd without creating dummy user accounts? In the valid users = do you need to do put the user as DOMAIN\USERNAME?

Yes. If you're using \ as your seperator you'll need to escape it, though, I think. -----Original Message----- From: David Edward Shapiro [mailto:David.Edward.Shapiro@btitele.com] Sent: Friday, February 15, 2002 11:22 AM To: 'Thomas, Daniel J.'; 'Helt, John'; 'samba@lists.samba.org' Subject: RE: [Samba] Winbind issues!

I am using winbind for all of my authentication purposes and for controlling access to shares, etc. In the smb.conf file, I've got winbind seperator = "\" - you NEED the quotes, or else samba thinks it is line continuation mark. Also, for shares, I have lines like: valid users = DOMAINONE\UserD1-1 DOMAINONE\UserD1-2 DOMAINTWO\UserD2-1 DOMAINTWO\UserD2-2 writelist = DOMAINONE\UserD1-1 @DOMAIN\Domain Admins Everything is working fine for me. One thing that might not hurt (and if you have problems), is to but quotes around the account names in the valid users, writelist, etc. options. i.e. - DOMAINONE\UserD1-1 would be "DOMAINONE\UserD1-1" and @DOMAIN\Domain Admins would be @"DOMAIN\Domain Admins" -----Original Message----- From: David Brodbeck [mailto:DavidB@mail.interclean.com] Sent: Monday, February 18, 2002 8:45 AM To: 'David Edward Shapiro'; 'Thomas, Daniel J.'; 'Helt, John'; 'samba@lists.samba.org' Subject: RE: [Samba] Winbind issues!
