similar to: Simple AD authentication for Samba share

Hi, Could someone confirm that the following is NOT possible with Samba: -Run Samba on a Solaris box WITH NO SMBPASSWD -Have the users log in on Windows NT, using the Novell NDS client, and using ENCRYPTION -Have the users authenticated by Samba through NDS (preferred) or NIS. My understanding is that if Samba receives the password encrypted, it has no choice but to use a local smbpasswd (and

I have a quick question on hooking Samba to a large AD domain. Following the excellent recipe at: http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba_&_Active_Directory I see it states about half way down to join the machine to AD "Now to join your machine to the active directory. You will need the user-name and password to a Domain Administrator account to do this. The command you need to join

With a single server, settings "security = server" and "password server = pdc1 pdc2', I can successfully authenticate against two entirely different PDCs depending on which order I put the two machines in the 'password server' list. Is there someway of forcing clients from either domain to authenticate against the 'right' pdc, regardless of the order in the

Hello I makeing a Domain Controller with Samba (v3.0.33) and LDAP (v2.4). I will install a PDC in the headquarter and a BDC in the subsidiary of the company that I work. The PDC and the BDC will have his own LDAP data base. I just install the PDC without problems and my next step is to install the BDC. I configured the LDAP that work in multi master mode. I made some test and the LDAP works

Hi there, I have a really ugly problem, which, as I know is partially selfmade. But to the problem: I have five servers running samba-2.2.3a-12 (latest Debian Woody release) which are controlled by one master server. All of the five servers act as pdc for an own nt-domain. Now to keep the administrative work as low as possible I have this one master server. Via this server we/our customer

Hello all, I have a question regarding the integration between Samba and the Active Directory (Windows 2008). Current setup: 1. We have been using a Samba server to offer shared folder to the user in my institution. 2. The users have any kind of operational system on their machines, and they don't log in any domain server 3. The users simply map their shares at the Samba server, using their

I'm hoping someone can give me a clue what I am doing wrong here, Running Debian Etch AMD64, I followed the samba wiki at: http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba_ <http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba_&_Active_Directory#Prerequisites> &_Active_Directory#Prerequisites. I get mostly good results, except when I try to run 'getent passwd' or 'getent group' only

Hola folks, After a few years of slowly phasing in various Linux and BSD platforms, the company I work for is willing to take a hard look at replacing its existing Windows NT domain controllers with a Linux/Samba combination. We only have about sixty people in our main office, but most of my experience is with smaller deployments. I'm not looking for step-by-step instructions, that's

A few questions about Unix groups in Samba. (1) "samba-tool user add" has an option to set --gid-number. However, I can't see that this attribute is ever used. Can someone confirm if this is true? From digging around previous mailing list postings (*), I surmise the following: - the user's Unix primary gid is taken from their primary *Windows* group (primaryGroupID, which

I'm running CentOS 4.4. I'm trying to install swatch (a log watcher) using CPAN. It's getting hung up on trying to install a dependency, Pod::Simple So before I get too wrapped up in this, I have the following questions: 1. Is there an alternative way to install swatch? I didn't get a hit when I tried yum. 2. I'm not wedded to swatch. Is there another log checker

I need to serialize computing job requests for two different multicore machines, and in some near future, for a cluster. I have worked with SGE but it requires NFS and other administrative steps, plus it seems a bit overkill for my needs. I guess some simpler queue managing engine may have been developed, possibly over SSH. Any pointers? TIA. -- Eduardo Grosclaude Universidad Nacional del

Hi, Is it true that Samba 2.2.x PDC does not support trust relationships to other Windoze NT PDCs? Thanks in advance for your reply.

Hi, This may be a dumb question (I'm new with this), but is it possible to use SAMBA in combination with LDAP in a Workgroup? All the manuals and examples I can find, are talking about Domains and PDCs. I have to set up a new Samba server and checkout LDAP but I'm not allowed to change the Workgroup settings... Now we use smbpasswd... Is LDAP worth the effort and time? Kind

Like many, I administer multiple LANs connected together using NT trust relationships. This was implemented about 4 years ago. I now have the occasion to consider performing this same task again, but this time, I would like to implement it solely through samba - no Microsoft PDCs anywhere. I have read documentation on samba.org regarding NT-style trust relationships and am now wondering, can I

Hi, I have the following directory shared for the user "pcbadmin". He/she can mount and read/write without any difficulty: [pcbdata] comment = PCB Design Files path = /home/pcbadmin/pcbdata valid users = pcbadmin public = no writable = yes Question: How can I make the same directory only readable by the rest of the users ?

I am running several samba servers (2.2.3a and 2.2.7) in various places as pdcs. Everything seems to be running smoothly, but I can't find any way of restricting access to only those uses who have logged on to the domain. Is this possible? ie at the moment, any user can map a drive to \\server\share, put in a valid user/password pair and have access to that share without going through any
