Hello I wonder if anyone here could possibly help me? I am using Samba version 4.5.16-Debian (version information taken from sudo smbstatus) on Raspbian and attempting to prototype some future network infrastructure with a couple of Raspberry Pis. So far I have sucessfully created a Samba 4 AD DC ad1.samdom.example.com. I have successfully joined my Windows 10 dekstop client to the SAMDOM

Jonathon and Rowland, are you  sure the command you are referring to here is net cache clear for clearing the cache? I couldnt see this in the manpage for net cache. There is a 'net cache flush' command though?

Go on, I give in, what is wrong with the official Samba documentation? Off the top of my head: 1) Your (ie Samba project) docs are structured a little poorly and actually pretty hard to follow - eg a single article describes setting up Samba both with SAMBA_INTERNAL and BIND which is confusing. Two separate articles, one on each topic would be better! 2) Despite being the official

Hi everyone, just tried executing wbinfo -u and wbinfo -g on a particular Samba domain member that is acting as a file server in my setup. Much to my surprise i did not see the list of users or groups that I would normally expect to see outputted from these commands. Instead both commands just exited and returned no output. I have already tried restarting winbind, smbd, and nmbd on the domain

Dear samba-list, please disregard my previous post. Since posting I have found a way to avoid the need to create a dedicated AD service account purely to allow Redmine to authenticate via LDAPS and AD. This neatly circumvents my original issue and is much more secure to boot. For future Redmine users googling, refer to this document here:

Hi everyone, i've just been following the instructions about setting up a Samba domain member as a file shares. I am using Samba version 4.5.16-Debian (yes its old, but i'm stuck with it for now ;) ) and I have been following the official Samba documentation found here: https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Setting_up_a_Share_Using_Windows_ACLs I just wanted to give you a heads up, I am

As always, posting your smb.conf might help. Oops forgot, thanks Rowland: pi at fs1:~ $ cat /etc/samba/smb.conf [global]         username map = /etc/samba/user.map         workgroup = samdom         realm = samdom.example.com         netbios name = fs1         security = ADS idmap config * : backend = tdb idmap config *: range = 3000-7999 idmap config SAMDOM:backend = ad idmap config

Hi Samba documentation admins, one of the the examples given on this page https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/User_and_Group_management is incorrect and probably should be updated. The snippet of code in question: $ samba-tool user add fbaggins    --random-password --use-username-as-cn    --surname="Baggins" --given-name="Frodo"    --initials=S --mail-address=fbaggins at

To be honest, the 'Dynamic Bind' method doesn't seem that secure to me, anybody could 'pretend' to be someone else. Rowland True! I agree with you Rowland that is a weakness. Unfortunately that is a universal weakness shared by all password-based authentication methods. I guess you would have to go with SSH-style encryption keys and certificates to circumvent that problem

Can you post the following files: /etc/resolv.conf /etc/hostname /etc/hosts /etc/krb5.conf pi at fs1:/var/log/apache2 $ cat /etc/resolv.conf # Generated by resolvconf search samdom.example.com nameserver 192.168.1.229 nameserver 192.168.1.228 nameserver X.X.X.X nameserver X.X.X.X nameserver 8.8.8.8 pi at fs1:/var/log/apache2 $ cat /etc/hostname fs1 pi at fs1:/var/log/apache2 $ cat /etc/hosts

Hi Rowland! No, I haven't synced my SysVol yet. I was following the official tutorial here, https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Joining_a_Samba_DC_to_an_Existing_Active_Directory. This tutorial appears to suggest that idmap.ldb files should be synchronised first prior to setting up any rsync SysVol synchronisation.

Cheers Louis, i just ran the diagnostic snippet you sent me: pi at ad1:/var/lib/samba/private $ sudo ls -al $(samba -b | grep STATEDIR | awk {' print $NF '})/sysvol total 20 drwxrwx---+ 3 root 3000000 4096 Mar 25 16:36 . drwxr-xr-x  8 root root    4096 Mar 25 17:31 .. drwxrwx---+ 4 root 3000000 4096 Mar 25 16:36 samdom.example.com pi at ad2:/var/lib/samba/private $ sudo ls -al $(samba

Hi all, I have a couple of Samba 4 DCs on my network and I created a new service account LDAPReader on my DCs that my non-Samba third-party services such as Redmine successfully use to access AD via the LDAPS protocol. I have a couple of questions that relate to having service account of this nature implemented in Samba and I wondered if the group could possibly provide some advice? 1)

Hi Rowland, I made the change you suggested to auto refresh kerberos. It didn't seem to fix the issue unfortunately, even after a machine restart. Following your line of reasoning that it is a Kerberos issue, I then tried to grab a new kerberos ticket on the server in question which appears to fail though. Perhaps this gives some further insight? pi at fs1:~ $ kinit administrator at

Hi everyone, I am running Samba 4.5.16-Debian on Raspbian OS and I am currently attempting to deploy the provided samba-backup.sh script within my existing SAMBA installation to implement disaster recovery on my AD DC servers. Following the documentation provided here https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Using_the_samba_backup_script I have so far managed a partial success on my backup: pi at

Rowland - good news - the instructions in that document you suggested appear to have made all the difference! Now I find that if I do: pi at ad2:~ $ sudo systemctl restart samba-ad-dc pi at ad2:~ $ sudo samba-tool drs showrepl Default-First-Site-Name\AD2 DSA Options: 0x00000001 DSA object GUID: e676dfc3-670d-46bb-b1f7-756bae990a30 DSA invocationId: b7fb9a73-a5c5-4672-9d0f-83e0323f9f3b ====

I have a general question regarding smb.conf and I was hoping that some of the rather more knowledgeable and experienced people here could please comment please? I am currently setting my various SAMBA systems up via some shell-scripts. Within these scripts, I remove the stock smb.conf shipped with Samba and replace this with an empty smb.conf file to which I add my own configuration options
