Hi. I'm not subscribed to the list, so if you can help, please e-mail me or CC me in the response. I've been using Samba for quite a while, and just set up a 2.2.2 server with winbind support. Console logins and SMB access work fine, wbinfo -t reports "Secret is good", and wbinfo -r domain+ntuser shows the right group number. In fact, the UID/GIDs are translated properly when

I have a Sparc Ultra-2 running Solaris 2.7 and Samba version 2.0.5 Most of the time everything works fine, Win95 & WinNT users connect to Samba shares and work. Occasionally, users report not being able to view the Samba server in which case I have them map a drive manually or do a "find computer". There are times when this does not work. I take a look at the logs

Hi all, I've just set up password encryption using 1.9.18p4. I compiled with NO ALLOW_CHANGE_PASSWORD option because compilation didn't work (I'm using HP-UX 10.20). Everything seems to be working correctly instead of a 'normal' user trying to change his (samba-) password using smbpasswd (root can change any password). The messages I receive are as follows: Old SMB password:

Hi Folks, I got a little problem with authentication. I set up samba 3.0.0 and squid 2.5stable4, using winbind to authenticate users via group with the nt4 domain pdc. Anyway... sometimes the authorization/authentication doesn't work. In the first test I had no problems surfing the net via proxy, and some minutes later I get an access denied message with the same user... so this is this a

I am preparing a bit for setting up replication. However when I manually try to dsync an account, the first time I execute this[1] command it seems to be ok. The 2nd time I am getting this error[2]. If I add -1 (one way syncing) the error disappears. Does this mean I will have problems with setting up replication between these two servers? [1] [@ ~]# doveadm sync -n inbox -u testaccount

Dear samba-users We are experiencing some rather long logon times using SAMBA 3.5.6 on Debian Squeeze + Windows 7 and while trying to find out why we raised the loglevel to 5 resulting in a rather large logfile. But this did give us a hint as to why we experience so long logon times. It seems that samba is going through the whole user-database with all usernames and machine-accounts. Eventually

Hi all, I have a bridging firewall running fine with kernel 2.4.31 (Slackware 10.1) and iptables 1.2.11 Yesterday I install the new kernel 2.6.14.3 and iptables 1.3.4 but the bridging firewall doesn't work anymore.

I've to migrate a NT4 PDC to an samba PDC (running samba 3.0.0beta2 on a debian/GNU/linux box). Samba is already setup and working as a BDC.

The problem is now, how to get a working userSID <-> UID mapping: The existing userSID have RID parts in the range of

Ive just discovered that my previous email is wrong - the password sync does in fact work under Solaris fine. What is happening however is that when I create a new account, and call smbpasswd $user as root, it only updates the SMB password and not the Unix password as well. I though I could change my call to /bin/passwd in my new user creation scrip with /usr/local/samba/bin/smbpasswd -a, but as

Hello again, I'm trying to move all my users from an old Samba server to a new Samba AD server. When I try to do a 'classicupgrade' the process crashes after a while without giving me a clear indication of what is going wrong. When I try to export the users using pdbedit -e smbpasswd , some of the accounts simply fail. If I look at the output I see something like: Processing
