when an nt 4.0 workstation or backup domain controller is joined to a domain, the trust account password is set to a well-known initial value. if you are concerned about internal network security, this is not really an acceptable risk: any captured network traffic can be decoded simply from knowing the name of the workstation, which is contained in the network traffic itself. the initial value

ftp://samba.org/pub/samba/alpha and mirror sites rpcclient and samedit etc. on sun ultras were failing because getopt cannot be reused. evidence of this is by doing a samedit "createuser username -p password" and the reported password on-screen is total garbage. this was fixed by using the GNU getopt and getopt_long functions (hooray!) in the same way that rsync does. i have access

ftp://samba.org/pub/samba/alpha and mirror sites 1) i fixed a problem with nmbd's GETDC response, it is responding better but still not perfectly (and 2.0.x and cvs main need to be fixed, as well) as there exists no explanation for the correct response to locate a Domain Controller using GETDC. the upshot of fixing this is that joining an nt workstation to a TNG domain is now _extremely_

ftp://samba.org/pub/samba/alpha and mirrors. due to some confusion about how to use samedit's createuser command, i put a warning / security message in whenever createuser hostname$ is used. it basically says, now you can join the workstation to the domain because you have just set the trust account to the insecure, well-known initial value, and you had best join the workstation to the

I've followed the instructions in the DUAL-SAMBA-HOWTO to try to install a Dual Samba system. I'm running Redhat 7.0 (awaiting my 7.3 in the post). I've installed it, added the user `CSMSRV-HEAD$' to both linux and also, using 'samedit' to TNG. This is the name of my HEAD samba server running. I've changed the security = share, and the server works on the network.

rpcclient sound cool. I am running 2.0.6 Samba. 'rpcclient' exists with it but a call to 'man rpcclient' gets no results. Could it be that the man pages are in a later release?

ftp://samba.org/pub/samba/alpha and mirror sites. finally resolved some of the niggling issues that have kept tng from working: in particular, thanks to karl denninger for helping track down "invalid users = root" in the [global] section which stops root from being able to access anything, including being able to add user accounts! tng is now back where it was about 6 weeks ago: -

ftp://samba.org/pub/samba/alpha and mirror sites. when using domain user map, when logging in and then accessing the samba server, i re-enabled map_nt_and_unix_username() to allow the nt username to be remapped to the unix username / share. i think i also now have the GETDC request with enough correct rules in it to allow all the various spurious combinations to be supported. NT 5 wks now can

ftp://samba.org/pub/samba/alpha and mirror sites mainly a maintenance update: all bzeros replaced, as was done in cvs main / 2.0. readline detection added. if someone wants to add an autoconf test to detect -lcurses being needed by solaris readline, please create and send one. usrmgr user-account changing is now accepted (on systems compiled with the default, --with-sam-pwdb=passdb, this means

what you've all been waiting for: a merge of smbd from cvs main to SAMBA_TNG. please help test this one lots, i may have missed something from the code i pulled over from cvs main (70,000 lines of code pretty much copy and diff style!) i spent some time last night getting the security file/dir tab working, and lo and behold, you can view and change unix file perms (i am very impressed,

ftp://samba.org/pub/samba/alpha and all mirror sites. plenty of alpha releases have got to be good for the soul. - fixed security = domain. i had some nice recursion problems, i love filling up my process table with samrd and lsarpcd calling each other (...only kidding). - fixed up netlogond so that pam_ntdom can contact it on a domain loopback _even_ for domain logons, and netlogond will

yes, there's a .gz, too. there's also always patch files (diff.gz) for those people with really slow links [in russia, hi there, thanks for wanting to keep up with this stuff!] this release may be a bit dodgy, it contains three separate sets of changes: - andrew's simplified the file-opening. however, it doesn't deal with the shared NFS / SMB case, so jeremy is investigating

ftp://samba.org/pub/samba/alpha and mirrors went to minor release numbers on 2.4 because of instability. also, if you are running into problems at high debug log levels, try reducing them to more reasonable levels (between 5 and 10 or even just 1) and see if it works. i ran into timeouts because of too much debug output! andrew and i have been using insure (a proprietary, *excellent*

Hi everyone, First of all, could you please CC me, I am not (yet) subscribed to this list. Now my problem: I created a test setup at my office that uses winbind to authenticate linux users to a Windows NT server (they log in with DOMAIN+username), as described in the winbindd manpage. I followed their setup completely. (at my work I am using RedHat 7.1 and the winbindd daemon found in the

Hi everybody, my (our) goal here is to setup a samba server in a NT domain (and eventually in a Win2k domain - but for now I just want to test it on NT) and have it act like a member server - meaning that I don't use the local user database but instead assing permissions of shares to domain users and groups. To avoid having to administer both users in the NT domain and on the samba

update: - fixed smbd for win95-style profile-locating (it now works, thank you to everyone who sent in log files to get this fixed) - various modes tested and confirmed as working: * ROLE_STANDALONE security = user encrypt passwords = yes domain master = no domain logons = no * ROLE_DOMAIN_PDC security = user encrypt passwords = yes domain master = yes

ok, people, i _really_ need help with this. i estimate that if i work on this full-time it's going to take about... two weeks. i have one volunteer for the samr functions. it's been two days, already, and i'm only half-way through samr. that means, nothing else gets done, and samba-tng current cvs is broken because the _samr_lookup_rids() function goes into an infinite loop on that

Hi... I have exactly the same problem with lsarpcd giving the error "ERROR: setgroups call failed!". Anyone know of a fix??

Greetings, Is there any way to get Samba to interact with MS-DOS? I am attempting to turn a Linux box into a VPN router for DOS clients. What I need to know is, can I get a CIFS protocol stack for MS-DOS, is a TCP/IP stack sufficient, are there any other solutions anyone knows about? Thank You.

recently, netect / bindview posted a review of the syskey system and how the RC4 cypher stream was reset each time. standard RC4 attack analysis shows that XORing two obfuscated passwords together results in the XOR cypher stream dropping out, and you have the two XORed password. further attack analysis can decrypt the passwords. i am looking to implement an equivalent mechanism to SYSKEY,
