-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I have seen a weird problem in one of my clients. The reported that when issuing a smbmount command (both client and server are CentOS 4.4), it would take up to 30 second for the mount to complete. To make a long history short, by using strace and the source, I noticed smbmnt is first calling mount() using ascii options for *data. Then that would

Dear all I struggle with a very annoying bug ! The problem is very simple to reproduce (NO Windows stuff needed, ONLY Linux !): 1. Samba 3.5.6 running on a Debian 6 (Squeeze) Server with following configuration: /etc/samba/smb.conf: security = user guest account = nobody map to guest = bad user null passwords = yes case sensitive = yes [myshare]

Hi! I created a Samba4 Demo Server to test AD functionality. Basically it's a Debian Wheezy machine with a manually compiled Samba4 (smbstatus -V: Version 4.1.0pre1-GIT-051a1a9) according to https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba4/HOWTO but adjusted the paths to a more debian way. I can Manage the Server with the Windows Domain Utilities, add users, add groups, add Machines and so

Helpp! :) We didn't catch this in testing and now it's killing me in production! I'm getting stuck with my fresh build of Samba 3.6.10. It isn't honoring groups specified in the valid users clause of the share configuration. I'm running in security = SHARE mode, and user authentication is working just fine. Even if I specify individual users on the valid users = line, it

Would someone please tell me where I can find some good troubleshooting documents to resolve AD authentication issues when using Samba? Is this mailing list the best place? I was able to setup a working WINBIND-Samba setup on CentOS 7.6, but I am required to use SSSD on a different CentOS 7.6 server. Using a test VM, I can get services running, but I can't authenticate from a Mac or

Hi, I have a share (testshare) where different unix groups (testgroup1, testgroup2) should have access to. But I want that new files are only created with 660 permissions. Here are the ACL's of testshare: # file: testshare # owner: ralfgro # group: ve user::rwx group::rwx group:testgroup1:rwx group:testgroup2:rwx mask::rwx other::--- default:user::rwx default:group::---

...red directory. ln -s /home/shared/testgroup testshare In the smb.conf I have: [homes] comment = Home Directories browseable = no writable = yes valid users = %S force create mode = 0660 delete readonly = yes map archive = no case sensitive = yes follow symlinks = yes [testshared] comment = Test Shared browsable = no path = /home/shared/testgroup valid users = @test writable = yes force create mode = 0660 force directory mode = 0771 force group = test IF the user maps to the "testshared" share, it works perfectly (ie. uses the gro...

Hi All, After successfully installing the AIX Binaries (Thanks Bill), and manageing to join as a ADS Domain Member I have a couple of peculiarities of which I need to get to the bottom. Problem A When connecting to a share, I can connect OK , and get authenticated OK, I can create files in the share and open files in the share, but cannot list files in the share or delete files I have created.

We have Fedora Core 2, samba-3.0.3-5, kernel 2.6.5 We set acl support in fstab We configured samba with acl support + openldap 2.1.29 as passwd backend. In a shared folder "testshare" we set the following directives: [testshare] comment = ...... path = /home/testshare read only = no nt acl support = yes create mask = 0700 directory mask = 0700 security mask = 0777 directory security

Hi, I have a case where I only want to restrict access to SMB shares via filesystem permissions (and POSIX ACLs). Therefore, I do not want Samba to verify security in any way at the SMB level. If the filesystem/ACL permissions allow access to the shared directory, so should Samba. If the filesystem does not allow access to the filesystem, Samba should deny as well. I thought I had this

So, I have "working" builds of Samba 3.6.10, and 4.0.2 using the traditional build system on AIX, both built with XLC. For historical reasons, we're needing to use 'encrypt passwords = no', so that Samba uses the OS password. The odd thing, is, the 3.6.10 Samba works just fine, but the 4.0.2 doesn't allow connections. Here's the Samba config I'm using on both:

Hello, I have a performance problem when I don't connect using root and/or a user in the "admin users". Configuration: Samba 3.5.11 running on SLES11SP1. The share exported is on a GPFS filesystem and the GPFS vfs object is loaded(not loading it doesn't change the described behaviour) clients: Windows 7 and Windows 2008R2 all at latest update level.

Hi ... When trying to migrate from samba3 to samba 4.2.2 I am facing a severe problem that bugs me for hours now. I cannot get a samba 4.2.2 fileserver to work with a samba 4.2.2 PDC as a domain member. My scenario: Samba 3 network. PDC and fileserver where Samba 3.6.25. LDAP backend. We can't move to AD right now so I wanted to move to the current 4.2.2 at least to do this step but to

I am confused (nothing new there ...). I have 2 Ubuntu 9.10 Samba servers. I am trying to mount a share from the other (i.e., "workhorse" is trying to mount a share on "dual-booter"). If I specify a smbmount command with a -k option, I can mount the share: turgon at workhorse:~$ klist Ticket cache: FILE:/tmp/krb5cc_1000 Default principal: turgon at DACRIB.LOCAL Valid starting

Hello, Our samba fileserver is a member of a Windows 2008R2 domain, and has different shares. These shares are set with a "read only = yes" and have an explicit "write list". This works as planned. But when an "read only" user opens a pdf with Adobe acrobat, the file gets DenyMode DENY_WRITE and the user who can edit the file can't save the document anymore.

Hello, After an upgrade to samba 3.5.8 (from 3.2.5) the option 'dos filemode' does not seem to work anymore. If I (as a user) do not own the file I can't change permissions. I am user 'felix' and member of supplementary group 'Development'. To test things I use the following share definition: [Temp] path = /srv/samba/file-shares/tmp browseable =

I've got a very simple need -- want to make a samba4 server a member of an active directory domain and use it as a file-server only. All shares on the file server are explicitly designed with a 'uniform access model' -- eg the user's in privileged groups can do anything to all files in the share (and despite their best attempts) they can't accidentally edit permissions on

Hi list I am having difficulties with 3.2.0rc1 on a Solaris10 server. After unsuccessfully trying once again to get winbindd to run in our environment (AD, SFU), we resorted back to the old solution of syncing the nss infos from AD down to the Unix passwd and group files by a perlscript and doing only authentication against the Active Directory. Now, I have other problems, however. Going

Hi list, My goal is to share a few shares from a solaris 9 host with a new win2012 domain. Im rather new to solaris (some years of linux exp, but samba has been a LONG time ago) The solaris machine has been created as a machine account in AD under its hostname by the windows admins in the new win2012 domain. (Thats not me, although I have domain admin access if need be) I have an issue changing
