similar to: FW: 'mksmbpasswd.sh' Usage

I see that mksmbpasswd.sh (plus a little editing) would be a good way to set up users with "NO PASSWORD" in bulk. But suppose I don't want the risk of the "NO PASSWORD" approach. Now somebody with root access must run smbpasswd for each user they want to activate. But can't I just do this anyway (with the -a 'add user' option), without ever having run

All I have my samba setup working with PDC roaming profiles etc, but so I dont have to manually type everyone's password into smbpasswd.

Hello Everyone! I've spent quite a bit trying to get these shares to work just right. I'll past the output of my smb.conf at the end of this message. If anyone has any advice on this, that would be great. My first problem is that I'm trying to sync up my /etc/passwd with the /etc/samba/smbpasswd file.

Hallo, i installed samba V2.0.3 on a linux server in a company. for better security i will use encypted passwords. for synchronisation of the unix password file and the samba password file i tried out the script mksmbpasswd script. my security settings at the server are easy and i set the permissions of the unix passwd file at 774 and also my smbpasswd file at 744. starting the script with the

Hi all, Reading through ENCRYPTION.txt it says to do the following: cat /etc/passwd | mksmbpasswd.sh >/usr/local/samba/private/smbpasswd However, on my Samba-2.05a install (onto RH 6.0), /usr/local/samba doesn't exist. Instead, all the files listed in ENCRYPTION.txt and WinNT.txt are in the /usr/bin directory. Amongst other things, this means I can't set the recommended security

Hi all, Quick question, is it possible to take an existing /etc/passwd file and run it through mksmbpasswd.sh (or some other script) to update a smbpasswd file? I am asking this because everytime we change a password or add or delete usernames on a machine, it would seem we have to do the same thing to change th samba password file, and I'm hopeing there is an easier way..... thanks, jeff

We're beginning to test MultiTech's CallFinder CDMA Units, one for Sprint PCS and one for Alltel. They sell both. Our intent is to use them as a backup line for our main office (which has a PRI) and a backup/911 line for our remote offices which are all connected via * over a VPN with no local trunks at any of them. In the interest of maximizing use of the lines, I'm putting

Hi, I'm using samba-3.0.28-0.fc8. I'm trying to build a file server for 100 users. I created a perl script that automatically adds the 100 users plus their passwords with success. Now I'm having difficulty creating a script using the smbpasswd command because passwords must be entered in stdin. I also tried smbpasswd -s option but it asks passwd in stdin. Is there a way that I can use

This script will: # - create accounts that exist in /etc/passwd and not in smbpasswd # - remove accounts that exist in smbpasswd and not in /etc/passwd # - preserve existing password, flags and LCT fields in smbpasswd # - sets new account passwords to

Hi, I have samba installed on my Linux system (Red Hat 7.2), and Windows 98 on another PC as a Samba client. Samba works great if PlainTextPassword is enabled. However, if PlainTextPassword is disabled on Windows client, connection to the Samba shares no longer accepted. I believe I've done everything in order to make encrypt passwd working: * I converted /etc/passwd to

Hi all, I have an issue with my system and the phone company (Alltel). If someone goes into any mailbox on the server to leave a message, once they hang up on their side the system is not detecting this and will sit there and record until you get the standard message from the phone company "If you'd like to make a call, please hangup and try again", which is preceded by the fast
