Looking for a good, and secure, way to have users in a Samba AD environment be able to change their passwords without using a Windows domain member client or having local user or shell access to the AD system. Web based would probably be ideal, but I don't want some huge set of modules that do everything under the sun, just this one task. Possible? With what? Thanks! Chris

Hi Guys, Can you please tell me why is this failing to connect I'am running samba on Freebsd 8. I've pasted the testparm of samba. It first gave me unable to connect as a RPC and now it again gives me error that unknown user or password. ------------------------------------------------------------------- CAN YOU TELL ME HOW TO SETUP MACHINE ACCOUNTS AND NORMAL SAMBA

Hi, we have a couple of users which "forget" to change the passwords even if they get an reminder. Normally we tell them to use a windows machine, where you can change your password if it's expired. But how can a remote user change his password if it's expired ? Is there any secure solution for this  ? -- Bye, Peer

Hello, i'm curious to know wether the automatic chdir behaviour of sftp(1) in batch mode is a side-effect of the current implementation, or if it's instead a regular feature. And, if it's indeed the latter, wether there is any compatibility problem if one would actually rely on it? I'll attach a copy+paste diff to document this nice feature in sftp.1, just for the hoped-for case.

I'm setting up a Samba/LDAP PDC (samba-3.0.13 / openldap-2.1.30) and I'm trying to join a machine (called "melisa") to the domain. When I try to join the domain, I type in the Administrator (which maps to root) credentials. and after a few seconds I get a windows error that says: The following error occurred while attempting to joing the domain "PCA-USERS":

I am running RedHat 9 and samba. I need to be able to set one password for each user and sync them with ssh, web, unix password. i.e. When I change samba pass, it changes unix, ftp, etc. Is this possible with samba? I saw that it is if you are running windows and then you can change the unix pass via samba. Is this possible when running linux. I just want to easily administer my users.

...-p.) Part of the issue here is an underlying disagreement about the meaning of "standard shell." Skimming the -CURRENT source tree reveals several different definitions of "standard shell": * A group of "equivalent" shells from which users can choose. (from chpass(1)) * An indicator that the user is allowed ftp access (from ftpd(8)) * An indicator that su is permitted * An indicator that mail include files should be honored (in sendmail; based on a very quick skimming of the source) These are not entirely consistent interpretations,...
