Thanks Andrew, but we checked for that. Firing up dnsmgmt.msc shows no entries with those computer names. -A On Mon, Nov 6, 2023 at 11:34?AM Andrew Bartlett <abartlet at samba.org> wrote: > On Mon, 2023-11-06 at 10:02 -0800, Aaron C. de Bruyn via samba wrote: > > DNS is suddenly not working properly for some machines. > > > > > > > > We had a bunch of

It doesn't appear to be affecting anything in our environment, but a vendor recently insisted on "seeing" the security properties on a share. When we right-click on a particular share, go to properties and then click on the security tab, explorer crashes and reloads. I tested on a few Windows 10 and 11 boxes and was able to duplicate it. This is in the event log: Fault bucket

Apparently I forgot I had this particular problem and that I had a work-around: https://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2023-November/247069.html But yeah...disjoining a computer, *and* deleting the computer account *and* deleting the record out of DNS is still causing problems on various servers I manage. Currently on version 4.17.12-Debian The Windows event log says the DNS server refused the

Thanks--I didn't notice the Debian packages were so far behind. I'll try building a newer package and I'll test it out.

I've been googling, but can't seem to find an answer to this one. We have a Windows network with ~25 sites. Each site has a local Windows DC. Each site has a Debian 8.5 box running Samba 4.2.10-Debian. We decided to test moving shares from the Windows Server to the local Debian machine. (zfs snapshot is *really* handy when someone decides to open cryptolocker). File sharing has been

I've had that happen in the past with non-RedHat linux boxes. Fortunately we have Saltstack on all the boxes and can just salt '*' cmd.run 'killall -SIGKILL winbindd; service winbind restart' But it hangs SSH sessions and things like 'ls -lha' that need to resolve usernames and groups. i.e. if you removed winbind from /etc/nsswitch.conf it would stop happening. The

DNS is suddenly not working properly for some machines. We had a bunch of machines that were joined to the domain, but the computer name was wrong. To fix this, we unjoined the machines and deleted the computer accounts out of Samba (because renames while joined will leave LDAP attributes with the previous machine name and there will be connectivity problems for some reason), and we deleted them

I would skip all the Windows garbage if you can. Specifically don't have Windows load printer drivers from shares. If it's a single office where everyone has the same printer (or the same multiple printers), the basic process is: Preload the drivers into the driver store Add an IPP printer connection to CUPS which doesn't rely on the filesharing / print driver hacks that were added

I wanted to do a little playtesting with Samba as a domain controller. I spun up a Debian 10 box, installed Samba (package 4.9.5+dfsg-5+deb10u1) , and attempted to join it to the domain. It crashed horribly. ;) Unfortunately their domain ends in ".local". There's nothing I can do about it at the moment. But I do remove multicast DNS from nsswitch to prevent it from attempting to
