Try setting auth methods = sam winbind. IIRC when in domain authentication auth methods does not include users in the local sam, but my knowledge could be based upon an older version of samba, so you'll have to try it out. -Marc > -----Original Message----- > From: samba-bounces+marc_kaplan=adaptec.com@lists.samba.org [mailto:samba- >

Hello -- Our existing Unix system has more than 500 users. The system currently uses OpenLDAP to authenticate users. We just added dozens of PCs running Windows to the network. We are going to set up the existing Unix server as a samba PDC server such that the users can log onto either their Unix account or Windows account. It seems a good idea to allow the users have the same password for

Hi, I'm using samba-3.0.28-0.fc8. I'm trying to build a file server for 100 users. I created a perl script that automatically adds the 100 users plus their passwords with success. Now I'm having difficulty creating a script using the smbpasswd command because passwords must be entered in stdin. I also tried smbpasswd -s option but it asks passwd in stdin. Is there a way that I can use

Hello, I have a strange problem with my samba server. When I try to connect with my (Windows)client and samba ask for the password, it's only accepting my linux-user password, not my samba-user password (set with smbpasswd and as root with smbpasswd <user>). And now the strange about it. When i change my sambapassword with smbpasswd, and try to login from my client, then the samba-user

...eg. smbpasswd -a psmedley - with 'password' entered as the password puts the following into private/smbpasswd psmedley:1001:E52CAC67419A9A22B0498ECA57B8E5AF:99BBC66292358CB847E4B0F 8F741A01D:[U ]:LCT-45E64927: User psmedley can't connect with password of 'password' sambapasswords.py from http://www.cdf.toronto.edu/~agenkin/py/index.pyc/software indicates that the password hash should be: [E:\python25]python.exe sambapasswords.py NT MD4 hash: password -> 8846F7EAEE8FB117AD06BDD830B7586C LanMan hash: password -> E52CAC67419A9A224A3B108F3FA6CB6D 2) Files with a german...

We have samba (3.0.22) configured as 'standalone server' type and security mode is 'user'. I have configured 'smb.conf' so that windows xp users may change their passwords from windows box (using ctrl+alt+del) and I got it work (regardless some sources which say that is not possible with standalone server). The remaining problem is that now users should specify a host to

Dear friends we have the following problem.

I am attempting to deploy a number of NT 4 style domains in a single organisation using samba with an openldap backend. Reading the following thread I was under the impression that it was possible to use an LDAP slave as passdb backend: http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2004-February/080216.html When I have the master listed as the passdb backend joining a W2K workstation to the domain

Hi, This one is for the samba team i think... Intro... Im using Sun One Directory Server 5.2 as my LDAP, so i used the samba-schema-netscapeds5.x schema, also samba 3.0.8. I tried to change my "sambapassword" on a windows client, however i was getting errors saying i didnt have permission even tho sambaPwdCanChange was set to 1, so i looked in the log.smb and found the error was a

WHat is the significance to Samba of pam_password exop vs pam_password md5 in ldap.conf? The reason I ask is that, wherever possible, I prefer to use the vendor supplied tools for manipulating config files. With Fedora 3 it's system-config-authentication and it doesn't give you the option of exop. You either enable MD5, which puts pam_password md5 in ldap.conf, or disable it, which puts

Hello, I have added a group on my samba server (which uses LDAP as its backend) using the command: 'smbldap-groupadd -a "DINF - Suporte"' but when I try to add a user into it using 'smbldap-groupmod -m "pr193292" "DINF - Suporte"' I get the following error message: /usr/sbin/smbldap-groupmod: group DINF - Suporte not found! I can see the group on

I am new to SAMBA. I am using it with LINUX and I love it! Nice change from you know who. I am sorry if this is a lame question, but I am setting up a Primary Domain Controller and a Backup Domain Controller. All the clients are Windows 2K or XP. I need the clients to reset their passwords every 30 days. I am having a hard time locating a procedure to set this feature. LINUX has 'chage'

I have a Samba 2.2.7 PDC, and I am now trying to set up a new 3.0.1 server. I want this machine to act as a BDC initially and replicate all the accounts over. When I followed the howto it said to use smbpasswd -S to transfer the machine SID and then to replicate the smbpasswd file to the new server. This has caused two major problems: 1) the smbpasswd command does not support the -S option

Samba experts, I am using Samba 3.0.8 on an AIX 5.1 system with ldap authentication. I have ldap working so that users can authenticate in their samba account via ldap. However, I am trying to figure out the best method for allowing users to change their ldap samba account password. What is the best method to allow end users to change their LM/NT passwords for Samba via LDAP? Should

Hello, remove the line 'passwd program = /usr/sbin/smbldap-passwd %u' for testing. On my Suse 10.1 I do not need this and m y users can change their passwords. greetings daniel -------- Original-Nachricht -------- Datum: Fri, 2 Mar 2007 11:55:06 -0600 (CST) Von: "Andy Colvin" <acolvin@enkitec.com> An: samba@lists.samba.org CC: Betreff: [Samba] Changing LDAP
