Hi All, Any thoughts on why, while everything seems ok at the OS level (getent , id -a ) Samba doesn't pickup any supplementary groups when Solaris is configured with 'group: files ldap' in nsswitch.conf and using it's own native nss_ldap.so.1 but does when using PADL's nss_ldap? Everything else is equal. Do they use/accept different calls or could it be an

Have IdealX.org lost their domain? it seems to have been pinched by some company selling domains. Site is partially mirrored at Idealx.com but stil links to idealx.org. Replace idealx.org urls with idealx.com but the samba downloadable stuff isn't there at the moment. Duncan

Hi, I just upgraded one of our samba BDC's (with LDAP back end on solaris 10) from 3.0.23c to 3.0.26a and can no longer mount shares. The error message I'm seeing in the samba logs is [2007/11/15 14:15:26, 1] auth/auth_sam.c:sam_account_ok(172) sam_account_ok: Account for user 'dbb' password must change!. [2007/11/15 14:15:26, 3]

Appologies for double posting this. I managed to add it to the end of an old thread instead of starting a new one, anyone recommend a mail client that shows threads? :) Hi, I'm trying to run 2 domains from the one server. I've got my 2 config files and both servers run, bound to the correct interface if started normally. The problem I have occurs when I try to start both at once.

hi, I would like to know is it possible to make writing file to samba completely in kernel? I'm using a slow CPU (FA526) , and the memory copy is even slower. The reading performance is over 7 MB/s, with mmap and sendfile enabled, while writing is only 4-5 MB/s. Without mmap and sendfile, reading from samba is also about 4-5 MB/s. I use Oprofile to profile writing file to samba and found

Hi, I'm running samba 3.0.23c on Solaris 10. The smbd processes on my PDC have increased in size from 7Mb to upto 86 Mb , the majority of which seems to be resident . 3940 root 77M 72M sleep 59 0 0:00:01 0.1% smbd/1 14174 root 77M 73M sleep 59 0 0:00:10 0.1% smbd/1 13551 root 77M 73M sleep 59 0 0:00:18 0.1% smbd/1 19888 root 77M

I've been trying to get this to work for a few days now. I read that domain requests are sent via broadcast, and to use WINS to get around it. Well, I've enabled the WINS server on my Samba PDC, and told the BDC's on each VPN segment that the PDC is a WINS server. WINS resolution works apparently, I can sit on a VPN'd network segment and ping machines across the VPN via their

Hi All, Has anybody seen (Hopefully solved ;) this problem? We're running samba 2.2.8a as a PDC for windows classrooms with an LDAP backend. What's happening is that users are waking up the windows machines by pressing the space bar and then logging in. They authenticate successfully (leading spaces ignored) but windows is miscreating the roaming profiles with leading spaces which

Hi, When Samba is running as a PDC and a workstation is joined to the Domain, should the user logged into the workstation be able to see all the groups they are a member of using `ifmember /list`? Is the below output as expected? I'm I correct thinking that as all my groups originate in the Unix world, I don't need winbind to allow the Workstations to see them? For what

Hi All, I'm wondering if anyone can shed some light on a problem I'm having. I have a samba PDC with an LDAP backend, keeping the smb.conf file constant, When I have /etc/nsswitch.conf configured with groups: files ldap Then /usr/local/samba/bin/net rpc user info dbb only returns my primary group. If I have /etc/nsswitch.conf configured with groups: files nis Then all

Hi All, I'm trying to add a user to a group using /usr/local/samba/bin/net rpc group addmem room11 dunk -Uroot%password The user is added to the group as far as I can tell but the command returns NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED This is on Solaris 10 (Sparc) and Samba 3.2.1, OS and Samba are both configured to lookup users and groups in LDAP. /usr/local/samba/bin/net rpc group members

Hi experts I have a trouble in access rights I am running Samba 3.0.31 on Solaris 10 x86 64 bits as member server of an Active Directory 2003 R2 domain (MYDOMAIN) using Identity Management for Unix I set rights to access a sub folder of a Samba share. On Solaris the user "toto" jdoe can write a new file. From Windows, the same user can't. Itlooks like OK when the primary group

Hi, We've got a working samba 2.2.8 / LDAP / PDC setup going here with multiple samba servers all looking at the same ldap backend but oblivious of each other. I've tried to upgrade one of these servers to samba 3.0.4 setting the passdb backend as ldapsam_compat. If I try to join a windows 2K machine to the 3.0.4 domain it fails, I use the same 'root' user and password but get

Hi, I think I've found the cause of the large smbd processes. Does each smbd process keep a pointer to the connections.tdb file? This keeps growing and is currently over 20MB in size despite there being only 40 current users and 80 smbd processes? smbstatus reports services being accessed and files locked by non existent pids which are over a month old.

If I have a PDC and 3 BDCs on separate networks, with no clients on either of these networks, should the BDCs still be the preferred logon servers or do the have to be on the same network segment? Does where the wins server is (on the PDC) make a difference to which responds first? I've got 95% of my clients using the PDC and would like to spread the load a little. Samba 3.0.21c on Solaris

Not sure if this is what I'm looking for but if it's possible with samba, I'd appreciate pointers at the correct documentation. We've got a bunch of filespace shared out onto our samba server from a fileserver that doesn't support ACLs, we're stuck using basic rwxr-x---- type permissions. Each share is assigned to a Unit so we've controlled access by group and put

Hi, I've 4 Samba servers running 3.0.21c in solaris 10 zones. One PDC, 3 BDCs. The machines are identically installed and the samba binaries and associated libraries are copied between the machines so are also identical. On my PDC which seems to be accepting almost all of the clients, my smbd processes are 33M with 25M resident. This seems to be used by dev:32,0 ino301938 ,see pmap
