The smbpasswd on my PDC (Solaris 9, Samba 3.026a) will truncate or corrupt passwords over 8 chars. The smbpasswd command on the linux clients (Samba 3.024a) is OK. Anyone know if this is a samba version issue or something solaris specific. Thanks

I've got a samba install on Linux with winbind installed, etc. I've configured it the same as I have under Solaris, but for some reason, I can't chown a file to an AD username. I have joined the box to the domain, I can wbinfo -u/-g and get lists of users and groups on the domain. When I run getent passwd or getent group, however, I don't see any of the domain users and groups.

I have samba server joined to a domain that I'm trying to use ads security and acls on. I can set acls on the Unix file system, and access from a windows client seems to honor them. I can't view the acls under the security tab, all I see are the standard Unix permissions instead. If I try to add an entry to the acl, I get an access denied error, even if the user is on the list of admin

I've got a relatively simple permissions scheme I need to implement, and I'm having issues with group membership. I have a share that I need to grant an active directory group full control to. If I add an AD user to the ACL on the directory that is the root of the share, the user can access it. If I add an AD group to the ACL on that same directory, group members cannot access the

We have a SAMBA built from source code, and we want to enable offline bit in SAMBA, Can anybody can give some advices on this? Thanks. Vincent

Hello, I've a share with preset permissions on different directories including acls. So in one folder for example users can only read and into other read and write. Everything works fine. The Problem is if one user decides to change the permission of a file or directory (via Windows) the acls and permissions get are messed up. How can I restrict users from changing permission on a share? I

Guys I was so frustrated about installing samba with ADS and winbind support on solaris 8. After fixing many problems, I am now facing another problem: I created a directory "test" in the samba share and was editing a file under the directory "test" and in the meantime the machine was rebooted. After the machine is started, the whole directory "test" is gone. I

I'm having trouble getting Samba working on Solaris 10 with a large active directory (35000 users, 5000 groups). I've set this up successfully in the past with winbind enum users = yes and winbind enum users = yes in the smb.conf file. Owing to the large number of users in this application, I need to have these set to no. Realistically, only a couple dozen people and 3 groups actually

On Samba 3.0.24, on Solaris 10, I can set ACLs from the command line using setfacl and view them using getfacl. When I look at the security for the mounted share on Windows, I only see the owner, group and world permissions. I can modify those permissions, at least for world. What I can't do is add another user or group to the ACL. I get the error "Unable to save permission changes

I have a unix group that owns some files on a share, and I'd like to set up a group mapping so that an Active directory group (with an exising mapping in winbind from earlier use) gets access to these files via a mapping. I've been fooling around with net groupmap add, and haven't been able to get this set up. The group Domain Users has an existing mapping to gid 10004, which winbind

I'm seeing behavior that I was hoping somebody could explain. I have a share set up that will be a repository for company-wide data. There are three classes of people who can access it, readers, read/writers, and admins. Readers and read/writers are self explanatory, admins have read/write access, and can change the permissions/ownership of files. Read and write access is controlled by

I'm having issues joining samba to a domain with a large number of domain controllers. The domain is a mixed windows 2003/windows 2008 domain. The samba server is Solaris 10 update 5 running on SPARC. I have a custom samba build of samba 3.0.28 on the server because we need Tobi Oetiker's samfs patch. Because of the issue that version has with passwords longer than eight characters on

I have two samba servers with pretty much identical setups (same smb.conf, smbd, winbindd, libnss_winbind.so binaries), joined to the same domain, one of which works, one doesn't. I'm seeing smbd crashing when I try to connect to the problem server with the following information in the logs. OS is Solaris 10 update 5 samba is a repository snapshot that Volker pointed me at to resolve an

Sorry for the double post, I've been doing some more looking into this, and it seems like this is a separate problem of more general interest than my original AD issue. My understanding is that the repository does not maintain a configure script in the source directory. Packaged releases of the samba code include one, but if you're trying to build from the repo, you need to do it

At the suggestion of Stas, I'm starting a new thread on this one. This pretty much covers where I'm at right now: Doug, thanks, here's a complete listing of the config file, and some logging, hopefully this will be illuminating to somebody. > Neither of these lines set the log level. Yes, I've been setting it in the init script. When I do ps -ef | grep smbd, I see that
