I have been trying to use security=domain and hence have to use smbpassword to create a domain account. Since my default setup has an smb.conf file in a non-standard place, my primary smb.conf file consists of [global] config file=/path/to/smb.conf.%h This works fine for smbd and nmbd but trying to run smbpassword returns the following error ./bin/smbpasswd -j DOMAIN No password server list

Background: Linux, Debian (Sarge). I want to auto-mount an smbfs at boot. smbmount version is 3.0.7-Debian. With the following in my fstab, I can do the mount as root, but have to provide a password (hence either I can't boot unattended, or can't mount it during boot): //<server>/<share> /mnt/point smbfs

Hello! I've got two questions for which I haven't been able to find an answer after searching the web and the list archives. * Is it in any way possible to, from a per-user logon script, find out if the user belongs to a specific Unix group? I guess this would get pretty tricky, but is it possible at all? * I need to create a script/program that removes a user from a Unix system. The

Is this setup possible? I am converting an old server to look on LDAP for its UNIX account info. I am able to auth in every way with a LDAP-only user (login, telnet, ssh, su). However, after adding the user with smbpasswd -a, the password doesn't work: [root@furnsrv log]# smbpasswd -a testuser New SMB password: Retype new SMB password: Added user testuser. [root@furnsrv log]# smbclient

Hi, all -- I am trying to write a script in which I can add users and their samba passwords easily and quickly.? It looks something like: ?? useradd -c "User Name" -g groupname -p unixpassword accountname ?? echo -e "smbpassword\nsmbpassword\n" | pdbedit -a -t -u accountname If I type the lines from the keyboard, it works fine.? However, when I try to execute the script, the

...ument assignment between types "unsigned long*" and "int*" is not allowed." I use encrypted passwords and have a smbpasswd password file in the ususal place. I can mount samba share OKAY. From "root" I can add users to the smbpassword file and change user's smbpasswords but USERS CAN'T change their smbpasswords. When they try, the log.smb indicates: Can't set uid (AIX3) Can't set uid (AIX3) Are permissions not correctly set to allow "smbpasswd" function any longer from a user's account??? Ultimately, I would like to have several samba...

... On a LAN consisting of a box with Linux 2.4.21-138-smp using Samba version 2.2.5-UL, all the boxes can log in and see the shares (windoz xp, 2000, me - all smbpasswords set to none), except one that is windoz98. Attempts to connect get "IPC$" login messages. The box that gets the message has a directory/password/smbpassword (set to none) on the Linux machine. Is this due to the windoz version (98)? Thoughts? TIA Jerry Everything I learn gi...

I have set up Samba on a Debian Lenny server. I have set up the users by using 'adduser' and then using 'smbpassword -a username' to add the users to the Samba users database. The users have the same username on both their Windows Client and the Samba server. my smb.conf security = user username level 2 encrypt passwords = true obey pam restrictions = yes unix

Greetings, I'm using a CentOS 5.4 Virtual Machine and Samba 3.0.33-3.15.el5_4 to access a file share from a Windows XP host. I also tried the same using a Fedora 10 VM with the same negative results. Please read on. I've browsed the web and read the mount.cifs man page. And the conclusion is the same: you connect to a share using a username and password and you're good to to. Or,

Hello, I have comfigured samba-3.0.23c-2 server on CentOS-5, but when i was logging in from the client system, even if I donot provide password and hit enter key, the client is logging in as Anonymous user.

Kevin, Firstly, you need to obtain the DES libraries. Then you need to tell the Samba Makefile that you wish to compile in DES encryption services and link with the DES library. Then in the smb.conf file you need to add to the [Globals] section: encrypted passwords = yes Then you need to create a separate smbpasswd file. Please read the documentation in the docs directory of the Samba source

Hello everybody, i am trying to mount a CIFS-share while booting, providing a credential file for the share (/root/smbpassword) - without success (with SElinux turned on). The share will get mounted just fine when typing mount -a on the shell. And it also will get mounted automatically during boot when SELinux ist turned off. I have searched the documentation, but i have no clue which SElinux

Many of my clients installed kb2536276 on their windows client and can no longer connect to my samba server. Their sessions don't even get logged. I upgraded to 3.5.9 on my test server with no luck. Encrypted with local authentication to the smbpassword file seems to work fine, but I need the servers running non encrypted samba to work. I'm running 3.5.6 on AIX 5.3 using PAM auth and

I used to mount following share using samba client on RHEL 3.0 without any problems. Then I installed ES4.0 and I started seeing problems with these samba shares.

Hello and Thanks in Advance, I've been at this for three days now and can't think of anything else to try. Been through the docs and #samba on openprojects and even begged for direction in #samba-technical who suggested writing here. On the ancient RedHat 5.2 server (SAMBA 1.9?) both boxes work OK and continue to work OK with both servers now up (new one is from Mandrake 8.2 - SAMBA

Has anyone come up with a creative way to us nis passwords for both encripted and non-encripted passwords? Or a way to convert the nis password table to the smbpassword file, without having each user to login and change their password?

Running the command: wbinfo -aDOMAINNAME+Administrator%password works, in fact, all of the wbinfo commands report data as they should. However, when I try to connect to a share on the SMB server, I get the following error message in the logs: [2003/04/21 08:28:59, 0] smbd/password.c:connect_to_domain_password_server(1328) connect_to_domain_password_server: machine DWP rejected the tconX on

Once an account gets the "L" flag set in sambaAcctFlags is there a utility way to clear the lock on the account? I can clear the sambaBadPasswordCount with pdbedit -z, but that leaves the account in a locked state. I don't see any way to use pdbedit or smbpassword to unlock an account (although I can enable/disable an account).
