Hello all,
I again am having a problem I stated a while ago.
The machine is a mac osx server. I am limited samba 2.2.3 I believe.
It was working great, the I change a netlogon script, which should make no
difference.
then I added a couple of shares to smb.conf.
my smb.conf is designed after the one on afp548.com to make a mac into a
win pdc.
only the shares and names have changed really.
the problem is it stopped allowing me to login to my home dir when I login
with any user on the domain.
then, because this has happened before, I figured permissions. all of the
permissions in those users home dir's, i made wide open. 777. then I
figured, ok, maybe it is the machine I am on. I moved smbpasswd out of
the way. in fact, I backed up the whole /var/db/samba dir. that contains
smbpasswd, secrets.tdb and MACHINE.SID. restarted samba, used smbpasswd
-a root, then added a machine using smbpasswd -a -m machine. on a mac you
have to create the machine in workgroup manager, then modify it in netinfo
manager, then add it to smbpasswd. takes a while.
I have not removed accounts from netinfo which is essentially a passwd
database with different access.
the errors when I try to login is "
rpc_server/srv_samr.c:api_samr_set_userinfo(670)
api_samr_set_userinfo: Unable to unmarshall SAMR_Q_SET_USERINFO."
then a line about being unable to verify password.
I don't have access to the logs right now.
even after removing the smbpasswd db, I can still not find a home dir from
machines on the domain, and cannot join machines to the domain. I have
scoured the net looking for clues to no avail.
I bet it is simple, what is it though?
as I said I have had the problem before. I have had to completely blow
away the netinfo db.
not something I am interested in.
I am grasping at straws, any ideas will be welcome.
