Hi all, I am running Samba 3.0.20B on an AIX server with SECURITY=USER using an LDAP backend. I am looking for a way to capture the actual username(%USER_NAME%) that the client user is logged onto his individual workstation with and compare it with the user(%u) they are connecting with the share as. If they are different, I want to reject the user's connection. After doing some

Hello, I've been testing out 3.0.25 before putting it into production and came across an issue. As a simple example.. in a share definition root preexec = echo "hey there, hi there, hello" > /tmp/hiya.txt works fine under 3.0.24 not so under 3.0.25, /tmp/hiya.txt isn't created. Cranking up the debugging and using some other similiar tests it seems to me that Samba is in

I'm doing the "dual personality" thing with include = /usr/local/samba/lib/%L.smb.conf and make a lot of use of %U and %G and a bit of %S and some "force user" and some "force group" and "root prexec" and "root prexec close" but REALLY NOTHING THAT complicated and EVERYTHING works perfectly except for the "max log size" setting. This used to happen when I used to build Samba with gcc on Solaris and it still happens although now I use Sun's Forte compiler. I've...

Rowland, In the Wiki page "User Home Folders", Section 2.1 "Using Windows ACLs" correctly describes how to set permissions to allow the Windows program Active Directory Users and Computers to automatically create the user's home folder. But in the next section "Creating the Home folder for a New User" 3.1 "Using Windows ACLs", the blue box states

...to that server. In the meantime I use "root preexec" in smb.conf and the following script. It creates the folder and mimics the permissions as created by the RSAT Tool. #!/bin/bash # # Create Home Folder and mimic ACLs as created by RSAT Tools # # use in smb.conf: # # [home] # # root prexec = path_to/make_home_folder.sh '%D' '%U' '%G' '%H' # # ;; %D = Domain or Workgroup of user ($1) --> "SAMDOM" # ;; %U = Username ($2) --> "kbudwi" # ;; %G = Groupname ($3) --> "SAMDOM\domain users&q...

I would like to set special permissions (ACL) when pam autocreates my home dirs in samba. I think i should use a script for that. My question is: how can I make pam run a bash script after it creates the homedir? Thanks Cristian

I'm looking for a simple solution to log a single entry for each login to a Samba PDC. My current attempt(s) of using a root prexec script in either the [netlogon] share definition or the [global] section are working, but not exactly as expected. In [netlogon] I have an entry: root preexec = /path/to/script/makelogonscript.pl %g %u %m %I ...where makelogonscript.pl generates a customized logon script for each user/group e...

...: [homes] path=%H/sam valid users = +%G,%U force user = %U force group = %G write list = +%U create mask = 0770 directory mask = 0770 browseable=no read only = no It worked beautifully. But the whold valid users thing isn't working on the new system. To help troubleshoot, I used "root prexec" to dump the contents of %U, %u, %G, and %g to a file. The values of these variables when connecting to the [homes] share as me: <>%U = username without domain (e.g. chris) <>%u = username with domain name and domain seperator (e.g. DOMAIN+chris) <>%G = "users&quot...

Hello everyone. So, I come to you because I have a little problem when setting up my domain controller based on CentOS 6.5 and Samba 4.1.6. Everything works well, except for one small detail, which in my case blocking me. I would like to automatically generate the home directory of the user during the first connection (from Win or Linux), but the problem is that for some unknown reason,

Hi Rowland, thank you for your effort! However, this is entirely not what I am trying to achieve. What I am trying to achieve is to get the "prexec" method to work. The reason behind this is that I would like to have a zfs data set created per user in an automatic (scripted) way. The reason behind that is that if I do this by hand - from a domain admin account and with the ACL recommendations of the Samba wiki (inheritance of owner ri...

Hi list, We have a script we are using to create new users, and drop them into the proper OUs on our Samba AD server, using samba-tool. We have a Samba member file server (fs1) joined to the domain for hosting our file shares. On there is also where we are putting the users' home folders. I saw in the Samba Docs, and in the mailing list, that I can use

...using ssh or directly to the computer, then Samba isn't used and either you must create the users home directory, or use pam_mkhomedir to create it for you. If you connect to a users home directory via Samba, then the users home directory must exist or you need to create it via a 'root prexec' script, pam_mkhomedir will not be used. Rowland

...am aware Samba doesn't have the code to do this and ADUC running on Windows has no ability to do it either. It could be that you have pam_mkhomedir set in your PAM stack and it is this that is creating your users home directories at login. Myself and Louis collaborated to write a 'root prexec' script to create the users home directory at Samba connection. To the best of my knowledge, you have to use one or the other method. Rowland

The script is not required, at least in my setup. Obviously there's something different on my system compared to yours, but this has come up before - https://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2019-October/226432.html, so it works for others as well....
