I'm having trouble getting myself in to the administrators group. I'm using samba as a domain controller. I have a samba account called administrator. I have these settings in my smb.conf:: domain group map = /etc/samba/groups.mapping domain user map = /etc/samba/domainuser.mapping local group map = /etc/samba/localgroup.mapping This is in my domainuser.mapping to alias the

Running Samba 2.2.6 on RedHat 7.2 in a Microsoft NT4 Domain, trying to create or copy a text file to a share from a MS Windows 2000 Professional workstation (client2k) gives 'Access denied' Reading the log file (level 3) for samba.client2k (not an activity I feel much comfort in doing correctly) it looks like I am being recognized as a 'guest user' which is a problem but for

Hello again! Ok, I've gotten wbinfo -u and wbinfo -g working great Now I try to run getent passwd and getent group I get my local users/groups but not the ones on the Windows 2k Server Domain Controller and it just hangs after listing the local ones. I also tried authenticating a user and it worked I'm assuming wbinfo -a DOMAIN+ingless@DOMAIN%"password" (The usernames here

I can't find the thread but someone last week was having trouble with 'getent passwd' not returning the Windows domain users as well as the local users. 'wbinfo -u' worked but not 'getent passwd'. I just finished a new server and had the same problem. Turns out I overlooked the the symbolic links in /lib. The file libnss_winbind.so needs to have a link to

Hi, I have a very odd problem which perhaps is not related to Samba but to be sure... I have a RH6.2 2.2.20 ACLs Samba server 2.2.2 and everything is/was running fine partaking in a Windows 2000 domain. I needed to reboot the server. It has come up and I am getting "input/output errors" all over the logs when I try and access any of the shares on the raid array from a Windows client

Did you make sure localhost resolves? Also, depending on your /etc/resolv.conf, you may have to fully qualify the host's name including the DNS domain. I seem to rember having problems with this, and some combination of using localhost or hostname.domain.edu or using the actual IP address of the host cleared up the problem.

Thank you for your reply. Below are the entries for winbind I have in my smb.conf. Do you see any problems with them? # separate domain and username with '+', like DOMAIN+username winbind separator = + # use uids from 10000 to 20000 for domain users winbind uid = 10000-20000 # user gids from 10000 to 20000 for domain groups winbind gid = 10000-20000 # allow enumeration of winbind users

I ran into a similar problem with one of my machines. I simply couldn't quite understand why it happened. I did destroy and recreate the machine account and it still persisted. I ended up changing the machine name and creating a new machine name for the system. That is the only fix that I am aware of at this time.

I have read several HOWTO's online that indicate one should be able to access a samba share over an ssh tunnel from a windows box with the following steps: 1. Stop the File and Print sharing services on the windows box 2. Create an ssh tunnel from the windows box to the samba server (port 139) 3. Connect to the samba server as if it were on 127.0.0.1 Unfortunately, doing this on any of my

Just tried the latest cvs samba_2_2 (trying to avoid the winbind memory leak thing). It configured, compiled and installed fine, but when it came up there was an issue. When my Windows users (Win98 ad Win2K) went into explorer, they could see no names on the folders in samba shares, just blank folders. I quickly put it back to the older 2.2.2 configuration and everyone is back to normal. Was

Hello, I have downloaded and compiled 2.2.6 to replace my 2.2.6pre. I spent a large part of the day debugging the startup script because it seemed to always be starting two nmbd processes instead of one. Eventually I tried running just /usr/local/samba/bin/nmbd - and still got two nmbd processes. Is this correct behaviour? On the first server (Dell 4600) I thought it might be because it has

Hey ppl ! My WinXP workstations are not able to join my domain. I tried to apply the registry fix for plain-text passwords but it has no effects :( My PDC seems to work fine cause i've got no problems with Win2K Workstations... Is there anything i've omitted ?

Hello, I am trying to get the archive bit to behave under Samba 2.2.2 on a Linux box (Slackware 8.0) serving NT and Win2K clients. I have "map archive = yes" and "dos filemode = yes". If I have "force create mode = 0100", creating new files sets the archive bit (good) and "attrib +a filename" will turn on the archive bit if it was off (good) but

that your written english is not that bad. And yes, getting Samba and Winbind setup correctly so that all your authentication is being done through a pre-existing WinNT/Win2K primary domain controller is great. Right now, I am only using winbind for authenticating and restricting access to Samba shares. I would try out using it for other things, but there is no reason to. We've already got a

Running Samba 2.2.7, compiled with LDAP support. I'm suffering from really poor read performance problems on the server. Write speed is fine (after adding "interface = <ip of eth0>/24"), giving about 4.4 MB/s. However, reading files from the samba shares is just not usable. Reading a large (34 MB) file from the server takes more than 3 minutes on a W2K Pro client. NIC on both

Hello, I am currently integrating 20 workstations and 5 Servers (all Dell Products) running Red Hat 7.2 (2.4.7-10) into a Windows 2000 / NT Enterprise network of about 2,000 users. I have been using a Samba server (version 2.2.1) with "security=domain" so that any user with a W2K domain logon can access the Samba file server. However, I want to move into full integration and set up all

Jeremy, Bit of bad news - we had a another runaway SMBD. This time profiles were NOT involved - I was simply copying up an installation of Office2000 and then deleting it. It almost reached the end of the deletion when the processor utilisation went up to 90%. The client connection then dropped with a 'connection is no longer available' and there is now 99% processor utilisation on the

Hi, I have been quite surprised at the largeness of the winbind memory leak. I have an awk script which checks this every n-minutes and sends me an alert when it exceeds a specified threshold. See below for some sample data. This is RH6.2 with Samba 2.2.2 and about 25 users. What I was wondering is whether there is any issues with killing and restarting winbind whilst samba is running at full
