similar to: Encrypting passwords for NT

I am trying to get Samba 2.0.3 up on MacOSXServer (which is BSD 4.4). I can't get NT to recognize samba shares. Samba is running as security=server, pointed to an NT PDC for security (using the netbios name; should this be by ip address?); passwords are encrypted. I can use smbclient to attach to my own samba shares. I can also attach to other NT shares as a client and view network lists. I

Hi, I had trouble getting the pwdump program to work correctly on a german version of NT4SP3. I believe the problem is based on the fact that the german group 'Administrators' is called 'Administratoren', and Administrators is hard-coded into the utility. Would it be possible to make that an optional parameter? Unfortunately, I have no access to a C-Compiler on an NT-station, so

Here's an interesting thing I notice between NTSP3 and Linux 2.0.33+ w/samba 1.9.18p8 [TCP_NODELAY, read prediction on, SND and RCV buffers to 64k, though I've tried 16k, 32K, 64k, max size 2k, 4k, 8k, 16k, no difference] When I copy a file from any share to my NT's HD, I get perhaps 280KB/sec. When I copy from NT HD to Samba share, I get almost 1MB/sec. Doesn't matter where

Hi, all! In the end I want to make Squid authorize users via NT4 domain. I have Samba 3.0.10 (further named PROXY) and NT4SP3 PDC (named CONTROL). # net rpc join -U admin Password: (I enter) Joined domain: REGENT.CENTER. It seems to be OK, but the following record appears in PDC's system log: Event ID: 5723 Source: NETLOGON Type: Error Description: The session setup from the computer

Sorry about the previous message... Note that the maintainer listed in MAINTAINERS is no longer active, so perhaps it should be updated? I've found a problem with SMBFS and *really* long pathnames. It causes the kernel to OOPS, and sometimes corrupts the kernel stack. I've even had it corrupt the SLAB allocator so bad that no binary could be run :) REPORTING-BUGS format answers, let

Hi all , im an new samba user with a few preface questions ive got samba up and working as my master browser but when i try to go into the shared directory or main folder it comes up with a password screen .. \\alpha\ipc$ but my question is , is there a default password for guest or nobody ? it just keeps rejecting my password ..

I have a prerelease version of Samba 2.0.4 running successfully on MacOSX Server with encrypted passwords and domain security. (Thanks to help from Bill Chin and others on the list, and Jeremy Allison and rest of the samba team) I have just started work on testing Samba as a NT domain member, and want to know if I have the right ideas from my reading of the docs: With security = domain, the Samba

Hello everbody, I have a small problems with Samba 2.0.3/SuSE 6.1 and my Windows NT Clients: As long as I'm working with Win311/95/98 clients everything is OK, but when I try to connect with a WinNT 4.0 client, I get the following errormessage (translated from german, so the US message may sound a little different): Unable to connect to \\linux_server_01 Unable to log on with this account

Hi all, I have a machine running Samba (2.0.5a/Solaris 7) which is supposed to be the master browser from my domain. It's been running fine for a couple of weeks. But today it seems that some of the NT workstations are overriding it in elections and are becoming the master browsers (and the Samba server is giving up). I've SIGKILL'ed the nmbd processes, but after they wake up they

Hello, I know I should get rid of the problem by my own, but unfortunally I failed. So I ask: I`ve a subnet of win9x and WinNT clients connecting to our Linux file server (no more servers in this subnet) via samba 2.02. All win95 can see and mount services of the Samba server. But win98 and WinNT can only see the server but can not connect to a service. I`ve no encryption and security= user in

Howdy all: I thought I had this problem beaten into submission, but I guess not. We just got our first NT box, which is another new wrinkle... Anyway, the LAN just went belly-up again yesterday, and when the LAN guy disconnected my linux/samba box from the network, Network Neighborhood came right back. I still don't think it's a linux/samba problem, but I'm certainly no

Hi, I have a problem when I compile Samba 2.0.3, the next error message is generated doing "make": Using LIBS = Compiling locking/shmem.c locking/shmem.c: In function `smb_shm_open': locking/shmem.c:921: `PROT_READ' undeclared (first use this function) locking/shmem.c:921: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once locking/shmem.c:921: for each function it appears in.)

Dear people at the samba organization, I wish to create multiple workgroups using SAMBA in a single domain on a LINUX Box. The linux box is also the primary domain controller. Please enlist me the procedure and mail to me as soon as possible. Thanking you in advance Sincerely Roopinder Randhawa.

Hi, I've set up samba 2.0.2 on a sun e 3500 to export a drive. I have no problem mapping the drive to NT 4.0 if I use the ipaddress or the \\machine_name\drive method. However it will not appear in the browse list of available machines in the relevant domain. As you may have guessed I know nothing about NT. The NT domain I want it to be part of is called BGIC which is what I presume you put

Dear all, I recently upgraded to Samba 2.0.3 and read the doc files about NT machines because I cannot connect to the Samba server. In the WinNT.txt file there is the following proposal: [ --- Start of pasted text --- ] The following registry entry change will re-enable clear text password handling: Run regedt32.exe and locate the hive key entry:

Hello I have 2.0.3 setup but cannot connect to the shares. From any client i try it asks for a password to \\teck\ipc$ What password is this? And i wanted it to not look for any passwords other than the clients NT password. So is this security=server I dont want to set up accounts for every client who may ever want to browse a non passworded share on the linux machine. And last but not least

The 2.04b rpm for rh60 ships with and installs a config file for logrotate (the samba.log file in the packaging/RedHat section). ===== /var/log/samba/log.nmb { postrotate /usr/bin/killall -HUP nmbd endrotate } /var/log/samba/log.smb { postrotate /usr/bin/killall -HUP smbd endrotate } ===== 1) I think that the use of "endrotate" is wrong. There is no

WARNING Newbie question WARNING I am attempting to get Samba up and running. It is installed on a RH5.2 box, and everything went pretty well. I can see the samba box in Win95 network neighborhood, but I can's connect to it. I am suspecting that the Novell 4.1 box on our network is interfering. I can't seem to find a good document on samba/novell stuff, so any assistance would be
