I am trying to get encrypted passwords working for a Linux/Samba server serving Win9x clients. We want the students to be able to logon either the Samba file system or the Linux server and allow the students to change their password from either. I would really appreciate any help on this matter. We need to get this working as quickly as possible as the old Netware server is on life support.

Has anyone successfully incorporated a Win95 app that uses FlexLM license manager on a Samba file system. I would be extremely interested in talking with you as we are trying to install Parametric Technology's ProEngineer on our Samba file server. We do have a copy of the Unix version of the license manager, but I am not sure how I can get the Win95 client to talk to it. Any and all

I am wanting to share some license data files from a Win95 box out across a Samba controlled domain, where a Linux/Samba server is the PDC. I have enabled file sharing on the Win95 box and enabled sharing of the particular directory. However, I get the error message that no permissions are enabled and when I try to add users I get the message that it can't find a list of users. Is there

I can't logon to the network via Win95 boxes. I tried to follow the diagnosis procedure, but when I get to test 3, I seem to have problems...

I want to create a user "samba" that has admin privileges over the directory where Win95 apps will be installed, but does not have root privileges. Are their any problems with doing so?

Do you have to enable encrypted passwords for smbpasswd to work? I have yet to enable encryption because I wanted to test everything first, but have enabled 'update encrypted = Yes' so that this will update the smbpasswd file. I also have 'unix password sync = Yes'. However, I cannot get smbpasswd to change the passwords, either by user or root. Any suggestions? Carey

Is there a tool, either for Perl or C, that will add/change the NT and LM encrypted passwords in the smbpasswd file? I know about the smbpasswd command, but I can't use that function from a script. I tried #!/bin/perl system("smbpasswd \< $oldpassword\n$newpassword\n$newpassword\n"); and some other things, but I couldn't get it to work. TSD

Hello, I still cannot change user passwords with my Samba 2.0.3 server: When I try to change a users password either through SWAT or when logged in, I get the following error message when trying to change the password: --- machine 127.0.0.1 rejected the session setup. Error was: ERRSRV - ERRbadpw (Bad password - name/password pair in a Tree Connect or Session Setup are invalid.). Failed to

Hi all. Ok, I'm sufficiently pissed off now. Hopefully someone can help. Since I have no NT4 servers on the network, I'd like to be domain master, and a wins server. So I've added the following to the global section: local master = yes os level = 33 domain master = yes preferred master = yes wins support = yes And now I receive the following message:

Running Samba 2.2.2, having troubles with preexec when it involves the path parameter: Log on to the samba server as kris, user "users". %U expands to kris, %G expands to users.

Good Morning and thank you for your input. I had and still do understand what both preexec and root preexec do. I had also and still do understand the paths you had explained. I, however, had also already explained on 18 May 2015 15:31:55 CEST why your first solution was _not_ a viable option for us (server2 == NETAPP under warranty). I had also already explained on 21 May 2015 22:41:17 CEST

You tried the pam module mkhomedir ? And have your tried : root preexec = "/usr/local/samba/scripts/createzfshome.sh %U" or root preexec = /usr/local/samba/scripts/createzfshome.sh "%U" Is the homedir on a NFS mounted dir? Exports correctly set? Greetz, Louis > -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- > Van: samba [mailto:samba-bounces at lists.samba.org] Namens Ole

Msdfs proxy is pointing to another instance of samba servers, it passes through. I think running preexec there on the other instance will do the trick.

ok ok ... Names have been changed to protect the inoccent. This installation is being used to mitigate a server migration by providing read-only access to the new shares under the old server name. We have duplicated all the current shares on the new server (NETAPP) as {share name}_ro and created equivalent shares on the SAMBA installation as DFS proxies that point the client to that read-only

Louis, thanks for the idea! I can execute the script as root on linux (tested this), because I do folder (zfs data set) creation via remote ssh commands, so not in the domain context. But the point is that the script won't even execute. Even on failure, there would be a log file created by my script which can't be found anywhere. Ole Am 20.10.2015 um 17:29 schrieb L.P.H. van

Helo, I'm having a problem creating a share. When creating a user share, I use the preexec function to create their folder. Everything works fine. If I activate the shadowcopy 2 module, the preexec function no longer works for the share. The same applies to the root preexec function. To get around the problem, I use the preexec function at global level. I'd like to know whether this is

Hi, The Server to which the msdfs is pointing is a netapp. Though we theoretically can access the shell on it then begin to mess around there, we would really like to avoid that. Warranty and such make it a bit of a legal issue. That is the reason we went with a separate instance in the first place and now wonder why the preexec doesn't fire. There is nothing in tmp of the msdfs box. Like
