Hi, I'm receiving the following messages in my mail logs that I haven't seen before: Nov 28 22:45:31 bwipropemail dovecot: auth: login(?,179.210.41.21): Username character disallowed by auth_username_chars: 0x13 (username: AB?)

...X 9.03 - non shadow implementation) and run smbpasswd when it detects that the user has had to change their account password. Because the ageing works on storing update info with a "weeks since epoch" counter, I have decided to store the info as the last ','-delimited field in the gcos field of the smbpasswd. This means the script must run setuid 0 with appropriate signal handling behaviour. If there is a better method, I would love to hear from people. I am happy to email my "near complete" script to those who are interested in testing it and/or using it as a basis f...

I've used mknissmbpwdtbl.sh, and edited mknissmbpasswd.sh to change gcos to full_name and home to home_dir, then populated the smbpasswd.org_dir directory from passwd.org_dir using mknissmbpasswd.sh. The problem I now have is that when I run "smbpasswd username" to change a users encrypted password I get the following error message. tcsh> smbpasswd userna...

...p. Then I noticed in the CVS source's script directory there was a mknissmbpwdtbl.sh. After running it, I now have an empty smbpasswd.org_dir table. I thought this might fix my smbpasswd problem, but it didn't. I also ran the mknissmbpasswd.sh script, but it referenced some field called gcos that the table creation script didn't make. Since these sources were from CVS I didn't give too much thought -- CVS is broken a lot, I realize that. I would _so much_ appreciate any direction on this. Eventually I would like to set up the server as a PDC to authenticate the NT lab and p...

Folks, I'm running into some issues with pine and dovecot. (dovecot is running mbox for now... plan to switch to maildir soon.) At first I thought it was a funky issue with the way I was using pine to access mailboxes. (I use rsh to invoke imap as pre-authenticated so when I switch to maildirs, I don't have to worry about pine being patched to support it.) But after switching over to

Presently, the Samba documentation says that the default NetBIOS username used by client-type applications is determined by the following (from smbclient(1)), If no username is supplied, it will default to an uppercase version of the environment variable USER or LOGNAME in that order. If no username is sup- plied and neither
