Hi! Just another question... I've an Samba-PDC (2.2.5 --with-ldapsam) - and of course a BDC (at least I hope that I get this running soon) with an LDAP-backend (users/machins/groups). If I want to create something like a "Subdomain" with some - but not all - of the LDAP-users, can this be done, and if how? for example if we have a domain EDU (for educational users - students [we're a school]) and a "subdomain" E-CAD (a domain inside a CAD-room where only some students and not all students can log in), we would like to use the same users in both domains, but store the information which users can log in in E-CAD (e.g. in the domain-attribute or a extra ou or a group) thx
Hi All, I just joined this list, and I'm looking for some help. I've been running a Samba server for a few years now, and it's been doing everything I've asked it too, but I'm hitting a wall trying to implement something new. Google searches aren't turning up too much, except to indicate that other people have done what I want, but I haven't gotten much responses when I tried to contact them :( The few vague instructions I turned up in my searches seem to fail... I need to make my current Samba server (one FreebSD box) serve up multiple domains. I added a second NIC for the second network, and all the TCP/IP stuff is configured and working properly. Whenever I try to add stuff for a second domain though, the whole thing (Samba) fails so I've undone everything to keep the current status. Here's the scoop on the Network: Two completely seperate LANs, one on 192.168.1 and the other on 192.168.2 The students are all on .1, and the staff is on .2 The students currently log into the "STUDENTS" workgroup with no problem. As the staff has increased, we now need the staff to log into a workgroup themselves. I have two choices: 1) re-configure the current server (preferred) 2) build a duplicate LAN out of spare parts and start from scratch I'm more than happy to do either, I just want to know if someone has indeed gotten a single Samba box to server up multiple domains at the same time. TIA Steve
Hi,> Wouldn't it be easier to keep you BSD box as your PDC, have staff and students login on to that one domain and have logon scripts if you need to do anything cleaver??I definitely want to keep the BSD box as the PDC, but need the seperate workgroups, as there is some peer sharing going on with the staff and I don't want there to be any possibility of the students taking a peek in there. That's also why I run two seperate LANs (no packet sniffing). Steve
Hi Again, A bunch of people contacted me telling me to start up a second copy of SAMBA, but unfortunately, no one seems to know how to do it? When I try to launch a second copy of smb and nmb with pointers to the new smb.conf file, I get:>[2002/08/27 18:37:20, 0] lib/pidfile.c:pidfile_create(86) > ERROR: nmbd is already running. File /usr/local/samba/var/locks/nmbd.pid exist >s and process id 39187 is running. >[2002/08/27 18:41:14, 0] nmbd/nmbd.c:sig_term(65) > Got SIGTERM: going down...And I can't see any way to tell nmb to place the second .pid file elsewhere. Do I need to recompile a second copy of samba, using /usr/local/samba2 as the directory or something? TIA Steve
I thought someone suggested configuring smbd on a different port but am not sure , never did this but curious as i think only one root smbd runs and all are children -----Original Message----- From: Steve Morley [mailto:steve@morleys.org] Sent: Wednesday, October 16, 2002 4:33 PM To: samba@lists.samba.org Subject: Re: [Samba] Multiple Domains?
