Hello, I've been attempting to get this working all day. :) I have an RHEL3 machine connected to a Windows 2000 PDC as a domain member. I'm running samba 3.0.21c, compiled from an SRPM: # rpm -q samba samba-3.0.21c-1 When I try to list my users, I get this: # wbinfo -u Error looking up domain users Exit 1 Similarly, `getent passwd` fails to show any SMB users. But `getent passwd

starting from here: http://us1.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-Guide/unixclients.html#wdcsdm I follow all the instructions including using the samba configuration found in: http://us1.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-Guide/unixclients.html#ch0-NT4DSDM making obvious changes for workgroup, domain etc. The join succeeds but the wbinfo -u test fails. yes, I verified that all...

So, I cannot set owners, ACLs... My main source is Samba guide chapter 7: http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-Guide/unixclients.html#id2597100 All tests from Procedure 7.4 of the guide, except getent (eq. to pw show user -a) work OK. It seems that FreeBSD does not use nsswitch. What should I do or what I am missing? Thanks in advance fro your help. -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/FreeBSD-7.2-domai...

Hi All, I have configured Samba 3.0.23 to work with Active Directory. Based on all the tests shown here: http://us3.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-Guide/unixclients.html#adssdm Things are working as expected. Most machines and users are working as expected. I do have some Windows machines on another subnet, NOT joined to the domain that are giving me grief. Going to Start->Run->\\ip.of.samba.server I get the following error: The format for the comput...

Hello, I'm having problems configuring Samba to work using ADS. I've successfully compiled LDAP.

I am running Samba 3.0.3 on a Red Hat Linux 9 server (Intel based). I am using the procedures outlined in a document found at http://de.samba.org/samba/docs/man/unixclients.html. My Samba server is to be a Member Server in a W2K Active Directory (AD) domain. The procedures for this begin on page 13. I perform all steps outlined and get similar results. On the Samba server, I created a folder called /shares/test and, using SWAT, shared it with the share name of adm...

Hi Has anyone successfully integrated SLES 9.1 into Active Directory using Samba 3 , such that the AD users log onto the directory and gain access to resources on the SLES server as if it were just another Windows server.

I am trying to add a GNU/Linux client to a FreeBSD domain controller running Samba. Can some one guide as to how to go about it ? I have managed to add Microsoft Windows 2000 clients to the domain but would like to have some guidance on how to go about adding GNU/Linux clients. I did a bit of searching and could not find a simple how to. A reference URL of sorts would help. Thanks in advance.

There seems to be hundreds of ways to skin this cat but I can't seem to find anyone who describes a complete process to make it work. I am using Fedora 5 and the latest build of Samba 3.0. My end goal is to have the samba server be a member of the windows 2003 domain and AD users be able to ssh into the server. Thanks, George

I have Samba with Kerberos in server = ads mode. I however, have a few odd accounts that only exist under Unix. Is it possible to get samba to "fall back" on the local smbpassword file for users not found in ADS? If so how? Thanks

I am testing w/ a PC loaded w/ Centos 5 and Samba (whatever version it came with) I have not had any luck with connecting WinXP clients to it (or anything for that matter) I think my problems stem from not joining the domain correctly. What is the proper method for Win XP or WIn 2K . When I get a chance I am gonna connect a PC to my test network. To join a domain, you would need (at

hello, i'm configuring a member server (samba 3.0.28) to add it to a domain with one PDC and several BDC (all of them 3.0.20b).

Hi to everybody, I managed to setup ldapsam:editposix for Debian Lenny as described here: http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Ldapsam_Editposix and had the impression that in order to add a Samba Unix client, it would be best to continue here: http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-Guide/unixclients.html However, in the ldapsam:editposix tutorial, the Administrator is mentioned instead of root (judging from what I've read so far, the Administrator user is only used for "real" Windows client PCs). My smb.conf is setup so that no NetBIOS stuff is used (no wins, only port 445, net...
