...d back to the original PDC, and the WAN's PDC is demoted to BDC again, and changes again the WINS database. From what i've read, NT4 seems to do this "automagically", and i'm having some complaints about that. What do you guys think?

I am running vsftp pretty much 'out of the box', though I turned off IPv4 and have it listening on IPv6. I have stopped ip6tables, as the simple rule to enable port 21 is not allowing gftp to connect (pasv mode, I think). gftp to the IPv6 address, it connects and gets a directory listing. I am running gftp from my normal login userid, connecting to my normal login userid on the

...anyone been able to get local groups support with a Samba Server through winbindd? Specifically, i am able to store several SIDs in sambaSIDList, but i can't get winbind working to retrieve (or expand) its members. Is Winbindd supposed to work _only_ with NT servers? -- Carlos Eduardo Pedroza Santiviago Analista de Suporte <carlos@prognus.com.br> Prognus Solu??es Livres em TI http://www.prognus.com.br +55 45 3520-5867

Hiya, I'm trying to set up a Samba PDC with an LDAP backend. I experienced problems joining machines to domains, the machine account was created, but Windows said user name cannot be found. I resolved this by adding ldap to /etc/nsswitch.conf, but this has the side effect of allowing ldap users to login to the server via SSH. Whilst I can understand the need for LDAP users to be accessible

Hi, Recently, i worked in a pilot project to migrate a NT4 Domain to Samba3 + OpenLDAP. They have a quite large user base, approx. 2500 accounts, plus approx. 1800 groups, which 200 are local groups. Unfortunately, we faced some problems, and i'd like to know if anyone has faced them too, and how overcame them: - User Rights and Privileges: This is kinda new in latest Samba release, 3.0.11,

...toring that time in BRST zone. I've tried a lot of things, from changing the timezone to GMT, GMT-3, and even messing with "time offset" in smb.conf. What am i missing? Thanks.

...auth_sam.c, logon_hours_ok(), seems that the verification of the restriction is done checking the server's localtime. Changing the server's time solves the problem (of course), but that's not the best solution IMHO. Has anyone got a better soluction? thanks, -- Carlos Eduardo Pedroza Santiviago - <carlos@prognus.com.br>

Hi, I have a domain using LDAP backend, and recently we've managed to establish a trust relation with another domain in our network, which uses a pure NT4 server. After that, some accounts from the trusted domain started being created in our base. The user created doesn't have the same attributes as a valid user (he doesn't have sambaSamAccount, for example). But for auditing

Hi, I'd like to know if samba offers any way to audit user/group management tasks. I need to audit those events. AFAIK, i can change the smbldap-tools scripts to do some debugging, but doing it from samba would be nice. Is there any way? Maybe increasing the log level? How about some audit option in the config file? thanks.

Hi, just wondering if there was a way to boot while ignoring sysctl.conf... A colleague messed up one parameter, that ended up crashing the server at boot time. Booting in single was not helping. Fixed it by booting on a live CD and modifying the sysctl file but, it would be convenient to know if there was a kernel parameter to add to the grub entry or something to bypass it... But I see it is

Hello AIX folks, I am changing the packaging of Samba for AIX. Presently Samba is built with a truckload of static libs and bound up in a package that has no other support for the supporting infrastructure. What I'd like to do instead is make as much of the package dependant upon shared libs and to allow for completeness of the package. In other words, BDB, OpenSSL, OpenLDAP, SASL, KRB5,

Hi, Does anyone know of a stable / working "2way authentication" system for SSH, and even web authentication services? Most of the banks in South Africa have a system that, when you want to make a payment, they send you an SMS and you need to verify the action with a secret code which was SMS'd to you. gmail also has this. Does anyone know of a "universal" plugin /

Hi all! I've a running Samba PDC (LDAP backend) with windows clients. All the users are in the LDAP, including the 'guest' user. All except the 'root' user which is a regular user. Then change in the smb.conf ldapsam:trusted = yes ldapsam:editposix = yes and noticed some speed-up when listing groups, look file ownerships, and so on. But I can't add machines to the

I've been working at this for a few days now and I can't figure out what is broken. Google turns up similar issues from years back, but I hope this is a bug resurfacing. ACL entries are being deleted when files are saved. Here is an example: username: user1 group membership: Domain Users directory: /share/test file: test.xls getfacl /share # file: share # owner: DOMAIN+backupuser #

Hi, I'd like to know if it's possible to configure samba to not list classes stored in CUPS? I've a lot of classes here, and listing printers shared on my samba server takes some time... where it should list only the printer queues and not printer queues plus classes. Thanks.

Hi, I'm having some problems in the following situation: - a SLES9 PDC (Samba/OpenLDAP) - a IBM NAS500 Gateway, supposed to be a storage with SMB features, but Samba is far better than that I've got Samba 3.0.23 working, and i can see my LDAP users/groups (through aix native ldap client -- i mean, the "id" command returns every user found in the base). However, i'm not
