similar to: Samba - Unix password sync

Hi! I know this is about the most asked question on these lists. I've been searching the archives looking for an answer, but all I can find is the same question over and over... I'm trying to get the Unix Password Sync option to work on my server. I'm running RH 6.0, with MD5 and shadowed passwords enabled, and Samba 2.0.5a (the RPM version). When I try to change passwords using

I'm trying samba-2.0.3 and can't make the passwd sync chat work. Here is the debug Invoking '/usr/bin/passwd papa' as password change program.

Hello! I'm trying to use unix password sync = true on an Intel-RedHat 5.1 samba server, because I want to have one program (e.g. smbpasswd on the unix comand prompt) to change unix and "encrypted samba" passwords; changing passwords from clients is nice but secondary. I used FLAGSM = -DLINUX -DALLOW_CHANGE_PASSWORD -DFAST_SHARE_MODES -DNO_ASMSIGNALH -DGLIBC2 -DQUOTAS LIBSM =

I am having problems setting up the smbpasswd command to sync the /etc/passwd and $SAMBAHOME/private/smbasswd files. My passwd program (/usr/bin/passwd %u) doesn't seem to want to wait around for smbpasswd to send it a second password for confirmation. I am running Solaris 2.5.1 (103640-23) on an Ultra 2300 and using Samba 1.9.18p10 compiled with gcc 2.8.1. I thought that I had this running

I'm trying to figure out how I can change to SMB password and UNIX password together. On the Win98 I change the password via : Control Panel - Passwords - Change Windows password (select also Microsoft Networking) After a few seconds I get the message 'The password you typed is not correct for MS Networking' Are there any known problems with password sync ? I read the digest 2112 till

Hi. Ive had UNIX passwd sync working using win95 clients and a samba (latest) SCO server. Then it stopped. Here is a snippet from the log file:- ============================== Invoking '/opt/K/SCO/Unix/5.0.4Eb/bin/passwd tnichols' as password change prog ram.

When trying to get "unix password sync" to work, I recorded this bit of log file: (My user name is tnichols): [1999/06/08 13:13:35, 10] passdb/passdb.c:iterate_getsmbpwnam(156) found by name: tnichols [1999/06/08 13:13:35, 7] passdb/smbpass.c:endsmbfilepwent(81) endsmbfilepwent: closed password file.

Hello - hope somebody can point me in the right direction here. We use a SCO 5.0.4 box and samba 2.02, and when I try to get the passwd sync feature working, this is what my log file says:- (the user name is tnichols)- [1999/07/09 12:32:17, 3] smbd/chgpasswd.c:chgpasswd(387) Password change for user: tnichols [1999/07/09 12:32:17, 10] smbd/chgpasswd.c:findpty(78) findpty: Allocated slave

I have been trying for hours to get the unix password sync going properly with Samba 1.9.18p4 running on FreeBSD 2.2.5 I have compiled Samba with the ALLOW_CHANGE_PASSWORD option enabled. I created the smbpasswd file as ENCRYPTION.txt states, and can set passwords as root. However, when a user tries changing their password, it doesn't work. The error reported is:

Hi All I've installed Samba 2.0.3 and coudn't put "unix passowrd sync" to work. I set: passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u passwd chat = *New*password:* %n\n *Re-enter*new*password:* %n\n*changed.* passwd chat debug = Yes unix password sync = Yes log level = 100 The password page says "The password for 'user' has been changed".

This is just a information in case somebody runs into the same issue: I was unable to upload drivers to a samba-server (3.0.28a and 3.0.29) via the windows add printer wizard. The driver files started uploading, then processing stopped saying the driver is not compatible to windows xp. In the logs the following message popped up. However some files could be copied: [2008/05/27 10:30:09, 0]

I can't get my Samba PDC (FreeBSD 7,0-BETA3) changing UNIX passwords from Windows clients (Ctrl-Alt-Del). I now have the password chat debug active and I have loglevel 100. I am not certain about the syntax in the password chat. But if I from a console try to change the password of a given user (here testuser1), I see these lines: mflserver3# /usr/bin/passwd testuser1 Changing local password

I host a server where the files on the server are licensed such that only one user can access each file at any one time. To clarify: There could be 100 files on the server, and each file can only ever be read by one user. I'm trying to find a way of either allowing only 1 TCP connection per file, or perhaps forcing a read-lock on every file opened such that no other users can access a file

Hi all, I seem to be having the same problem that another user (Thomas Dewar) posted recently.

Failed to change password for it When I check the logs after enabling

Hi list, I have set up two Samba PDC networks for work with win XP clients. Each network is small, about 15 clients and three printers. Each uses a different distro (don't ask)--one is mandriva 2006 the other is debian sarge. Both have all updates. Both have working wins and dns on Linux. Mostly things work well, but I am unable to change passwords from the XP clients. The client will
