similar to: non-root users cannot use smbpasswd...

I've compiled the latest version of samba (1.9.18p4) and set up password encryption (per instructions in the ENCRYPTIONS.txt file). Setting root's smbpasswd worked with no problems. I set another user (me) with an smbpasswd. Tried "smbclient -L '\\hostname\wwinzer'". The output is the following: 68 wwinzer@Sun-E3000:~ ==> smbclient '\\champusa.com\wwinzer'

Hi all. I'm a bit of a newbie with wine, so please excuse me if I've messed up somewhere. I'm trying to install msxml3 installed, so I've tried using winetricks thus: sh winetricks -v msxml3 This gives: ... + echo Executing wine msiexec /i /home/nonroot/.winetrickscache/msxml3.msi Executing wine msiexec /i /home/nonroot/.winetrickscache/msxml3.msi + wine msiexec /i

It's really weird how many times thing break in threes. This time is was my wife's laptop, my router and a phone. Anyway... My network has a router and 2 computers; my F11 box with the samba server on it called steve and my wife's laptop now running Windows 7 called Kellie-PC. My old router was a Linksys WRT54G that I had flashed with DD-WRT. I was using DHCP and DNS masquerading in

I am new to samba and I have two questions. I have a linux box connected to a box running windows 98. Windows is set to share-level access control. 1. How do I allow nonroot users to "smbmount"? 2. When I mount a share as root, root has full access to the share, however, a nonroot user has read-only access. How do I allow a regular user to have full access to a share? Thanks

I'm having problems still with password authentication for 1.9.18p7. Samba only recognizes the root password only!!!! I thought password authentication was fixed in version 1.9.18p5. Anyway, here's output of the problems I'm facing: After starting smb and nmb using root's ID the following test was successful: 3 root@Sun-E3000:/usr/local/samba/private ==> smbclient -L

Hello I have been solving a problem how to make a nonroot user able to administer the domain (add users, groups, modify them etc.) from Windows workstation using usrmgr.exe It looks like what is stated in Samba HOWTO collection as prerequisites is not enough. First I found Chapter 12 cxl "How to make Samba PDC users member of the Domain Admins group" - made the nonroot user member of

I've just upgraded the version of Samba we're running from 2.2.2 to 3.0.2a and am seeing an issue with permissions on directories. Users can still map the shares that are set up, but cannot access the directories within those shares. This is also not consistent; it's not happening to all users. Our environment: Samba 3.0.2a Domain Authentication to a Win2K server No Winbind Solaris

Hello, I've just spent the last two days sifting through the archives of this mailing list and although I found one or two references to my problem I've been unable to find the solution. I'm running Samba 2.0.4b on two machines: E3000/Solaris 2.5.1 E3500/Solaris 2.6 My clients are running under NT4.0 . I'm using the mode security = server. Everything works fine most of the

Hello! A good day to you all. i'm trying to get samba 2.2.4 to work with w2k pro boxes, and i noticed that only the root smb account can be used to add the machine to the domain(the machine account had been created in advance). When i tried to use an account that is not root, but part of the domain admin group, it returns various errors, like "unknown user name or bad

Hi A security update for samba 3.0.1 - 3.0.22 was posted on samba.org on the 10th July. Does anyone know how to apply to update? Everytime I click on the download link I just get the following text Index: source/smbd/service.c =================================================================== --- source/smbd/service.c (revision 16676) +++ source/smbd/service.c

I asked a couple of months ago in r-sig-fedora about a difference I noticed between Ubuntu and RedHat/Fedora. Now I think I've figured out the cause is a little issue in packaging but I don't know how to get it fixed. On Ubuntu, the setup is like this. It i is controlled in a file called Renviron R packages built/distributed in RPM are installed to /usr/lib/R/library. R packages built

Hi Jerry/Samba Team I have Samba 3.0.10 installed on Solaris8 server and Samba-client-2.2.10 installed on Linux Red Hat2.1AS servers The Linux servers use Samba to mount filesystems from Solaris8 server. My question is how to find out on the Solaris8 server which Linux servers are using Samba to mount from. Because it is hideous to go to every Linux server and see which Solaris8 server they are

I've been running Tinc on my routers for several years. I thought I'd do an integration of tinc with gui in Tomato firmware because I find it useful. It's been working well for me, but I'm sure there's there's a bug or two, or something I've overlooked. Let me know of anything and I'll correct it in a future release. I created a tutorial for Tomato users here.

I've run into a situation where Samba is having problems coping. I have filesystems on a SunCluster that my Samba server nfs mounts and then shares to our Windows PC's. I've twice had a situation where if I have a failover of my cluster during production time, Samba begins to use up all swap space, the system load goes extremely high (it went to 98 when this happened the other day),

Hi all, The question is: Given a barebones nonroot shell account with no compiler and linker, what would be needed to execute a given bitcode file? I several possibilities here. On one end, the distributor simply compiles the bitcode to any platform supported and provides the binaries. That means a 150% reliable cross-compiler setup for LLVM. Is that a realistic option? On the other end,

Hi, I posted the following message to the RedHat linux list to see if anyone had any thoughts about this problem. I have only received a few replies, all of which state that they have experinced poor performance problems with ssh on Solaris. They do not, however, state if it is openssh, which version, what hardware, or what version of Solaris. (All I can say is that we have had no problems with

For root sessions pam_open_session is called, but not pam_close_session. sshd behavior is broken for root logins because if pam session is run from the child, close is never called due to exec: on open since use_privsep is not set, parent calls do_exec_pty(), which does not open session. then, it skips calling do_setusercontext(), so it does not open session. child calls
