...[root] suceeded So far, so good. Now, same thing, but as any old user but supplying no password. This also allows me to see the available shares, as an anonymous user, but logs this: [2003/05/13 13:59:41, 2] auth/auth.c:check_ntlm_password(275) check_ntlm_password: Authentication for user [gordonp] -> [gordonp] FAILED with error NT_STATUS_NO_SUCH_USER Hmmm... there is no smbpasswd user 'gordonp', nor an /etc/passwd user 'gordonp', but there certainly *is* an LDAP user 'gordonp'. Further, if I now supply a password for 'gordonp', smbclient responds thusly...

...ompiler system is this? And what settings were used? We are not seeing such a problem on Solaris 10 (neither Sparc nor x86_64) with the Sun Studio 11 compilers they shipped with (a month or two ago). Note that the error message is not to do with subject line: it is launching R and /export/home/gordonp/Desktop/R-alpha/lib/libRlapack.so that has the problem. I don't think that configure can be expected to know about all possible systems on which R might be built, which is why we allow users to set variables such as FLIBS and MAIN_LD. We do try to document the settings needed for known sy...

Hello All, I am trying to setup Samba PDC with LDAP. I installed samba-2.2.8a and openldap-2.1.19. I am using smbldap-tool that bundles with samba-2.2.8a source, for adding user, group and computer name. I was able to add username in ldap using smbldap-useradd.pl, but i find problem in adding machine name. When i try to add machine name i got following error ./smbldap-useradd.pl -w test$

Gordon, I did as you suggested, and that seems to have fixed it. Thanks for the suggestion However, this is contrary to the given docs on how to use CUPS with Samba, is it not?

Good morning everyone, Does anyone know of a way for Samba, or Linux, to send a notification to Windows users, as they log in, that there password has or is expiring in a certain number of days? I've thought about sending a network broadcast using Samba, but I have no idea how to do it automatically, based on a 60 day password life and X number of days warning before it expiring. Right now,

Hello All! I am trying to follow the instructions to store Samba's Uer/Machine Account information in an LDAP Directory (Samba-LDAP-HOWTO.html). Is there anyone knowing how to run this Perl script: "import_smbpasswd.pl" in examples/LDAP directory? I don't know Perl. :( In addition, is there more information/tutorial of LDAP available on line? Thank you very much.

Hello , the described bellow happens both in samba 2.2.7a and 3.0-alfa22. First bug: As it is easy to check smbd , when asked about ACL entry of a file never sends to the client OS DENY Access Control Entries , only ALLOW. so for example for a XFS file with acl: # owner: a user::r-- group::rwx other::rwx Win2K security tab shows for user "a": Read & exec =

Now that I have Samba all set up and working well with all the machines I have - some linux, some Win98, some WinXP , what more can I do with Samba than just allow access to each of these machines. Right now I can sit at any machine and access any others. I can move files around I can play music files from any machine and I can print on any Printer that is in the network. What more can I

Hi. I've been at it for a solid week now....trying to figure out how to mount a smbfs-resource at boot. See i need to do the following; mount -t smbfs //<machine_name>/<share> /home/<usr_name>/music ...only thing is, I have to run the cmd as a regular user. The easiest thing would offcourse be to have i run at when booting, but i don't know how to do that. Any help

I finally got Samba-3.0beta1 as PDC with LDAP backend. However, I need to specify: passdb backend = ldapsam smbpasswd:smbpasswd guest and have the root account's exists in smbpasswd file. I still could not get a uid=root entry in LDAP to allow client workstation to join the domain. When in samba-2.2.8a I could use a fake rid=506 with uidNumber=0 entry in LDAP (as a SambaAccount) and it

Hi, I'm fairly new to both linux and samba. I'm running RH8 with Samba 2.2.7a. Samba's installed and is basically working, but can anyone tell me how I can get samba to start when linux boots up?

Hi, I setup a samba 3.0alpha24-1 as PDC (simple with smbpasswd without LDAP:-( ). With Windows 2000 everything works fine (server profiles, mapping the home directory of the users as Z:/ etc.) But :-( Windows XP I could join the domain (without any trouble). But I could not login as a user. Windows XP returns domain is not accessible (die domain ist nicht verf?gbar). But when I login to the

Hi there: We have recently inherited a circa 1996 SGI Indy Colorbus Cyclone running on Irix. Our intention is to use this unit to drive our Canon CLC900 Scanner Copier and make it accessible to our Windows Network. At the moment, our Windows Network does not "see" the Cyclone & vice versa. I have read that installing some kind of Windows Samba client onto our windows

I lost my Samba machine to a bad disk a few weeks ago, and I had to start from scratch. It was a small home machine and I didn't have backups. However, I make use of profiles and the Win2000 machine is now all screwed up -- it attempts to make new profiles for some users, with some success. If I try to set the permissions on the local Win2k machine to allow control by the user it belongs to on
