...ke to convert a number of userpassword ("posixAccount", crypt-ed) and create a ldif to update my Ldap server database. I've seen smbtools scripts in Samba sources but it seems there no tool to do that in there. What should I use to accomplish this ? Cheers, -- Michal Kurowski <mkur@poczta.gazeta.pl>

...it is required in the first place - my Samba server *is* a PDC. I'd also like to mention all user level mode operations are fully successful and I have no problems with my Ldap database whatsoever. What's going on in here ? What's so special about pdbedit ? -- Michal Kurowski <mkur@poczta.gazeta.pl>

...script: #!/bin/sh echo "Please log to 'some machine' to change your password" | \ smbclient -M $* The script works OK but not when ii is actually needed. Samba doesn't fire it up or Windows machines block it. I wonder how to make it work. Ideas ? -- Michal Kurowski <mkur@poczta.gazeta.pl>

Hello there I'm also trying to get Sun Directory Server 5.1 (from Solaris9) to work with Samba 3. I've loaded the DS5 schema file (from Samba 3.0.10) into Sun DS5, however when Windows attempts to authenticate against Samba, Samba seems to be sending an invalid request off to the Sun LDAP server: [27/Jan/2005:12:22:39 +1100] - Entry

Hi, I've been trying to find something on this in the docs but have failed so far - perhaps I'm just looking in the wrong place and if so please feel free to reply with a link. My issue is that files create on a samba share in windows are fine. The file is created and is accessible by everyone straight away. But, if I have a unix script create a file on the samba share at the server end

Hi all! Does anyone know a nice howto about different client "single sign on" setup for samba openldap. I'm intrested in all types of os accept old windows systems.

Hello all, I have the following problem: I wish to access the NFS shares through Windows. I want guideline on the following issues : 1.One of the solution to above problem involves sharing the same share(directory) using Samba server and NFS server.But won't this give rise to conflicts with respect to access permission bits of that particular directory being shared. (Because Samba

I have SAMBA 2.0.7 running on about 20 Solaris 9 servers around the US. One location is experiencing interruptions for Windows XP clients who map to the SAMBA server. There are no known changes to Solaris or SAMBA to explain the change. The problem is very random. I have seen postings that discuss how XP uses ports 139 and 445. Is there a way to block port 445 in SAMBA 2.0.7? The

Hi all, In trying to upgrade Samba here, I have built various versions from 3.0.11 to 3.0.14a using various versions of gcc and the Sun compiler (this is on Solaris SPARC) and had the following problem in all cases. Running the built samba as a logon server, I find that WinXP clients work fine but Win9X clients have some difficulties. The problem is that the Win9X logon script can't

Hi Folks: I am in the process of moving all of our users over to our new Samba File server which runs FC3. In order to properly secure the home folders, I need to chown them to the UID of the individual user, and chgrp them to the domain users group. I know the GID for the domain users, so no problem there. Is there a way to find a list of the UID for all the users. I know that I can do it

So i have gone through the archives and see a lot of people asking if samba can use edirectory as a source for user passwords. No i'm down the same road myself =D my company is using edirectory 8.7.3 on Solaris and redhat enterprise linux 3. the samba server only needs to talk to the redhat edirectory server though. From the turtorials that i have read a lot pf people hook up edirectory

When I have fileserver with many users homedirs (but all users from AD through winbind), how can I autocreate /usr/home/blabla, when I have just create user blabla in AD? Samba required existed directory to connect to resource, preexec= starts only after succesful connection. I'd like to automate process - when I have just create user blabla, when it connect first time to their homedir at

Hi all! Is there a way of logging date/time/workstation/username for every logon and logoff in a samba domain? I realized that it isn't possible to use log level auth for this purpose. I tried to use connections to netlogon service written on the logs. But I realized that those connections are closed before the user logs out. The main idea behind this is to have information enought to

Hello All, I am sure that this has been asked probably a million times on this list, but for our particular setup, I need to see if there is a way to have Samba authenticate its users based upon the Linux accounts password file? The reason is that we have other applications all working together and most of them are also using the Linux password file which make the process of maintaining

Hello, I am planing to install Samba as PDC for Windows XP Machines and LDAP (Sun ONE DS 5.2 + Messaging + Identity ) as backend sam if some one have already setup this kind of environment and can write down the steps in which order i have to install and configure products what would be great i am planing to go in following order Install Solaris Install Sun One DS 5.2 + messaging + identity

hi, weird thing: i thought when commenting out "delete user script" and "ldap delete dn" nobody is able to delete users from the domain. what happens: users are deleted, to be more specific their samba attributes are deleted but not their posix values. i won't let our admins delete users from our domain becaus we have another management to add/delete users to/from a

Hi, My second question. Perhaps not strictly samba question but I guess many people in here are dealing with exactly the same stuff... I've got Ldap (Sun ONE aka iPlanet) Ldap server on a solaris9 box and samba (2.2.9, not quite willing to upgrade, no offense) on a linux box. Therefore my primary linux group is "users" (gid 100) and my primary solaris group is "other"

Just for sake of curiosity: Is that possible ? I'd like to support XP Pro *only* and to ban any other Windows OS (no 2000 server or 2003 server machines in here).

Hi, My config: samba 2.2.11 on linux 2.4.26, nss_ldap 215, glibc 2.2.3. Clients: XP Pro SP1. Domain style setup with Ldap server over ssl. The server is Sun DS 5.2. Users complain that sometimes (and not on all computers) they are unable to log in after some time (several hours) has passed since they were last accessed. They have to reboot them and the problem disappears. I enabled level 3
