First of all, I want to say I have been using Samba AD for two years now (since just before 4.0 went stable), and it is an amazing product. We've implemented Active Directory & Group Policy for almost 50 computers and 100 users. Unfortunately, we are now being forced into switching to Windows DCs because Samba does not have an account lockout feature. Citrix (stupidly) does not have

I recently am migrating my PDC from NT4 to Samba 3.025. Apparently due to a mismatch between the capitalization of the Windows account and the Unix account (Administrator vs administrator) I managed to lock the account before catching the discrepenacy. # pdbedit -v administrator Unix username: Administrator NT username: Administrator Account Flags: [ULX Bad password count

Hello all- I'm looking to tweak password settings for my domain but have a few question regarding the settings under "samba-tool domain passwordsettings show".

If "maximum password age (days)" is set to

The release notes indicate support for bad password lockout policy starting with version 3.0.3 but I can't figure out how to enable it. I didn't see anything in the docs about turning it on. I also tried looking through all the options by using swat in advanced mode. How do I enable bad password lockout policy?

Hi, im trying to setup a password policy with samba and openldap. while lockout works perfect on openldap it looks like it does not work with my samba. Ive set "sambaLockoutThreshold" to 3 and "sambaLockoutDuration" to -1 (lockout forever) within the Domain-Object in LDAP. So i expect whenever a windows user does 3 false logon attemps his samba account will be LOCKED

Greetings! Is there any way to to lockout a certain machine identified by its ip address after a fix number of bad logon attempts? I'm aware of account policy option "bad lockout attempts" but that would block the whole account and not just the machine. Have a sunny day! Ferdinand

According to the documentation, Samba 3 supports account lockouts (ie: bad password attempt 5 times will result in the PDC returning an NT_STATUS_ACCOUNT_LOCKED_OUT message, until the account is manually reset with pdbedit). This syntax I'm using appears to be correct, but I'm not actually getting actual account lockouts: pdbedit -P "bad lockout at...

Hi there, With the new scrutinization by auditors on account policies and auditing, how can Samba be SOX compliant? Using 3.0.14a-sernet on Suse 9.1 - ldapsam Specifically, a couple of things seem to be lacking: 1) Logon/Logoff times are not being recorded The last logon time recorded in my ldap entries are pre-nt4 migration. 2) Do the Audit Policy values in user manager have any effect?

...setup or no way to replicate this policy information in a multiple DC environment. Depending on which DC handles the auth request is what policy is in effect. User Manager does not have any provisions to select the BDC's to apply a consistent lockout policy. I've had to disable account lockouts just to let the users keep working and we have the nerve to complain abount MS security. Are there any plans to fix this. After reviewing the source code the problem seems to be the account lockout code itself. Thanks _________________________________________________________________ On the roa...

Hi, I have just upgraded our Samba 4.1 AD servers to 4.2.2. Our AD was previously run on win2k3 and had configuration for account lockout after 3 bad passwords. This lockout obviously did not work after migration to 4.1 After the upgrade to 4.2.2 the lockout started working again, almost as expected. The current settings are Password complexity: on Store plaintext passwords: off Password

Hi, I have a Debian stable (woody aka 3.0) machine. I am moving my existing samba 2.x installation (that has users stored in smbpasswd) to samba 3.0.4 with LDAP as the backend. I am able to move the users to LDAP just fine. However, the password policy of bad lockout attempt does not seem to work. I installed the samba deb file from the samab.org site. I also have OpenLDAP slapd
