Hi all. I am trying to set up a RedHat 7.2 server to act as a windows file server using Samba and Winbind, the intent is to have NT Domain users be able to access the server based upon NT Domain permissions. I am using Kernel 2.4.18, I installed the ACL and EA patch 0.8.5 and Samba 2.2.3a. I configured Samba with the following configure command. ../configure --with-winbind --prefix=/usr/local/samba --with-smbwrapper --wit h-pam --with-pam_smbpass --with-msdfs --with-acl-support. My smb.conf file is [global] workgroup = DOMAIN netbios name = KIWI server string = Samba File Server encrypt password = Yes password server = * log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m\ max log size = 50 socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUFF=8192 os level = 60 local master = No domain master = False dns proxy = no wins server = 10.0.0.23 winbind uid = 10000-20000 winbind guid = 10000-20000 winbind separator = + winbind enum users = yes winbind enum groups = yes load printers = yes printcap name = /etc/printcap printing = lprng template shell = /bin/bash [public] path = /home/public writable = yes comment = Public Stuff public = yes guest ok = Yes read only = no I have the computer showing up in network neighborhood on my NT machine. If use the command /usr/local/samba/bin/wbinfo -u it shows all of my NT Domain users in the following format DOMAIN+user. When I connect to the linux server from a nt workstation and I type /usr/local/samba/bin/smbstatus it returns the following Samba Version 2.2.3a Service uid guid pid machine -------------------------------------------- public nobody nobody 6522 p112297 (10.0.0.152) Tue Apr 16 15:32:29 2002 IPC$ nobody nobody 6522 p112297 (10.0.0.152) Tue Apr 16 15:32:29 2002 I was using a TechRepublic article to do the setup. One thing that did not work was the procedure had me make changes to the /etc/pam.d/samba file. That file did not exist, so I created the file and put the entries that were listed. Any help would be appreciated Don Hammer Network Administrator Evanite Fiber Corporation 1115 SE Crystal Lake Dr Corvallis, OR 97333 (541) 753-0391 voice (541) 753-0388 fax hammerd@evanite.com ***** CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION ***** This e-mail and its attachments contain confidential information, and are intended only for the individual or entity indicated.
