Dear list, Is it sufficient to patch my 3.0.0 install to 3.0.1 on my Solaris 9 machine? Or do I have to recompile the whole lot from scratch? Does the new version put all the files in the right places, e.g. pam_winbind.so and libnss_winbind.so? (I think the HOWTO still says you have to copy these to the right places and make links if you want to use winbind) I'm just wondering whether it would be worth my while upgrading as the only problem I have right now is that I cannot make PAM let me log in as an NT user and create home directories on the fly. Thanks, Sapan
Ah! I've made a discovery, if I put the NT user I am trying to log in as into /etc/passwd then it will allow me to log in with the user's NT password. This isn't supposed to be the way it works right? I shouldn't have to have the users in /etc/passwd, that's the whole point of winbind, right? It still won't create the home drives on the fly though. Can anyone help me now? I don't seem to get any logs like I do on Redhat. -----Original Message----- From: Ganguly, Sapan [mailto:Sapan.Ganguly@thalesgroup.com] Sent: 16 December 2003 10:20 To: 'samba@samba.org' Subject: [Samba] Patch to Samba 3.0.1?

Uhm, if you mean have I configured /etc/nsswitch.conf, yes the important lines look like this - Passwd: files winbind Group: files winbind Hosts: files dns -----Original Message----- From: Adam Williams [mailto:adam@morrison-ind.com] Sent: 16 December 2003 13:58 To: Ganguly, Sapan Cc: 'samba@samba.org' Subject: RE: [Samba] Patch to Samba 3.0.1?> Ah!
