similar to: Perl code to generate Samba passwd hashes?

In einer eMail vom 30.08.98 05:55:16 (MEZ) - Mitteleurop. Sommerzeit schreibt samba@samba.anu.edu.au: << # export SMBPASSWD='mypasswd' # gethash 74AC99CA40DED4204A3B108F3FA6CB6D:F671043BA08E88500D2EB5279AC65E53 >> This is nice. Every other user on the system can see that hash with ps. I would not call that extended security. Detlef

I have Samba 3.0.0rc1 installed on a linux server DC-01 and it's configured as a PDC. The only share it has is netlogon. Users are stored in an LDAP passdb. All our users' home directories are on a second linux server, FS-01. It's been joined to the domain (command "sudo net join -U Administrator", which is the name of the "root" account). And here's a

In the release notes for 3.0.20rc1, I noticed the following: Changes since 3.0.15pre2 ------------------------ Parameter Name Action -------------- ------ ldap filter Removed I'm curious as to why this was removed and if there's another alternative. Our samba setup makes use of the ldap filter to restrict

I'm trying to setup a samba PDC and I seem to be missing a few pieces in the puzzle. I've reached the point where I've tried joining an XP workstation to the domain (yes, I've applied 3 changes to the registry that have been mentioned numerous times on the list). The domain join appears to work fine - I get back a nice box from the Windows machine welcoming me to the domain.

I am having problems with samba and ldap as concerns groups. We have two central LDAP servers which we use for authentication for many different applications, samba being just one of those. The LDAP servers are Solaris servers running Directory Server v5.2. Our PDC is running samba 3.0.7 on linux. There are several file servers, but the main ones are running samba 3.0.7 on solaris and all

I have Samba 1.9.18p10 running on linux 2.0.35. It's being used largely as a file server for student email, netscape bookmarks, Word papers, etc. from Win95 clients. The configuration is pretty much the defaults. We have an application called Visible Analyst (VA) that needs to be used by a few users. The bulk of the application files are shared but a few need to be available at startup

I'm really desperate for some quick help in getting the samba-3.0.0beta3 compiled with ldap on Solaris 8. I'm working from the tarball and I'm trying to use this configure command: ./configure --prefix=/opt/samba --disable-xmltest --disable-mysqltest --with-privatedir=/var/opt/samba --with-lockdir=/var/lock/samba --with-piddir=/var/run --with-configdir=/etc/opt/samba

Hi, I have an ajax auto completer for a text field in a form. All''s good. Unfortunately, I also want the form to be submitted when the user hits ''return'' in the text field. This combination of circumstances means that if the user is typing his entry and then hits return to submit it is possible that dang auto completer will pop up and complete his entry for even if he

Jeremy, Ok... now the next question. Will this change cause 1.9.18p11 to be released or is it something that will wait? I'm just asking b/c I want to include it on a new japanese product that's close to going out the door. -john. --------------------------------------------------------------------- John D.

I got back from school the other day and set up samba to avoid hearing questions from my father about "why can't I see your computer from my network neighborhood" etc etc and he wants to mount my mp3 files.. I also set up the standard homes share, but besides being able to connect to _his_ home directory, he is able to _any_ home directory! This is definitely not the behavior I am

I have Samba 1.9.17p2 and it works great on NT4.0 SP2 When I update to NT4.0SP3, my Samba connection gives me the following message: The account is not authorized to login from this station. Did something change? Maybe NT4.0 SP3 uses a smb.conf option that wasn't used before? I've installed the package version from the Solaris 2.5 web site. I'm actually running Solaris 2.5.1

Hi all, I have two samba machines running v1.9.18p4. When I try and list the shares on the second machine (calvin) fromn the first machine (hobbes) I get this: Session request failed (131,129) with myname=HOBBES destname=CALVIN Not listening for calling name Try to connect as another name (instead of HOBBES) You may find the -n option useful for this Any idea what this is trying to tell me?

Hi again, I realize this is generally not the place for this question but this is always where the answers are so here goes. We have a couple of win95 Pcs that regularly go nuts and arp foreach IP address on their subnet. The resulting broadcast storm is make even worse because of the inability of our net. admin. to 1) explain it 2) contain it 3) fix it (not too bright). I checked the registry

Hi all - I'll be the first to admit I don't know a lot about Windows networking, but I've managed to get samba (latest version) up and running and even have a cool netlogon script :) My config has shares for [homes] and [netlogon] and [foobar] (a test). When I look around in Network Neighborhood it lists homes, netlogon, foobar, and philip (my username). Is there some way to make

Hi all, I am trying to find a setup for browsing across subnets, however the BROWSER.txt document doesn't cover this situation: I have a network in a star configuration with a Linux machine acting as a router in the middle. ---------------- | Linux Router | ----------------

Hi I've seen a couple of people post this problem, but I've never seen an answer, and now it's happenning to me. I run Solaris 2.5.1, and samba-1.9.17p1. Every so often a pc can look in the network neighborhood and the samba server just isn't there, though you can still map a network drive by using a UNC pathway: \\server\share so the share is still out there but the server

Hi, I need to upload data from a barcode scanner into a Progress database on UNIX. The barcode reader is attached to a PC. We have set it up in this way that the barcode reader creates a file in a directory shared by the PC and an HP box. A simple daemon on the HP scans the directory and triggers a program to upload the data whenever it finds a file in that directory. I was wondering if

When I try and load smbd I get this error in the log :- bind failed on port 139 socket_addr=0.0.0.0 (Address already in use) Closing connections 04/02/1998 14:02:01 Server exit (caught signal) I am using Slackware 3 with Linux kernel 2.0.33, and Samba-1.9.18p4. there is no problem with Netbios naming as I can see th Linux machine in Network Neighbourhood and my samba client seems to be

Hi all, I am still battling to get browsing across subnets to work. I just need some clarification on some issues. I understand the following things to be the case, please correct me if I am wrong: - Machines on a subnet will periodically announce their existance by broadcasting to everyone their identity - Other machines will hear these broadcasts, and add the machines to their browse lists. -
