Is then new idmap_ad module capable of getting uid/gid info from a Windows 2003 AD pre-R2 with RFC2307 Unix Identity Mapping Extensions applied? Also, is the correct syntax for specifying the schema_mode as follows: idmap config dom.example.com:schema_mode = rfc2307 (I am not confident that I am reading the idmap_ad manpage and the new idmap document correctly.) Thanks for the help, Murthy

Folks, Maybe it's me, or my systems, but I've found that idmap restore simply doesn't work under samba-3.0.25rc3. When I try to import the idmap.dump file I create from one of my older systems into a fresh 3.0.25rc3 installation, I get a huge stream of errors along the line of "could not set mapping of (UID|GID) to sid xxxxx". This happened whether I was using

Hi! I'm trying to convert my tdb-based idmap mapping to a LDAP-based one. This generally works as intended, with one exception - the highest uidNumber/gidNumber in use is not transferred, and this causes duplicate use of the same uid/gidNumber. Here's what I'm doing: 1) net idmap dump /var/cache/samba/winbindd_idmap.tdb > idmap.dump 2) Set idmap backend in smb.conf to

As some of you may know, I'm trying to set up Samba BDC on a disk- and fan-less tiny mipsel_CPU router running OpenWRT distribution. I already managed to compile Samba 3.0.21a and OpenLDAP 2.3.18 for it, and they seem to work fine. The problem is, this tiny distribution for routers doesn't seem to have anything like Name Service Switch (NSS), and relies solely on /etc/passwd and

Please provide me with an example on how to use this tool to change a uid of a user to what I want the uid to be. I am confused on what it thinks are keys. It has a keys command: key 11 bytes: UID 119989 key 44 bytes: S-1-5-21-54348060-1989963526-242692186-2277 key 44 bytes: S-1-5-21-54348060-1989963526-242692186-8749 key 45 bytes: S-1-5-21-54348060-1989963526-242692186-24986 But if I go

Hi, I am setting up a samba server where i intend to store audio files. Since they require quite a lot of disk space i thought of compressing them in the flac audio format. The thing is that flac is not supported in many programs we use here. So here are my questions: 1.) Is it possible to configure samba to display .flac files as .wav? 2.) Is it possible to convert the .flac files to wav on the

Hi all, I have noticed that if you create a share to path lets say \\dir1\dir2\dir3 And a user lets say u1 has full control on dir3 BUT no control at all on dir2 then user u1 cannot access the share. Is it right? We have a situation with clients who typically do the following: Create a share to the root of the file system and give only to administrator full control on for the root path

Dear users, I have uploaded the new 3.0.25a packages compiled for sarge. At the same time I have removed older 2.2.x and 3.0.x packages for Woody. Support for back porting packages to Woody was already discontinued, but older packages were still provided. As these packages were not updated after the recent security issues, I decided to remove them to avoid pushing people to use outdated and

I just want to warn people that want to use the new hashing algorithm for mangled names. And that note should also be put in the man page IMO. You must understand that changing the hashing algorithm on a production server may have unwanted side effects (this is why we maintain by default hash and not hash2 and why it was not back ported to 2.2 initially). Windows clients may save all around

Hi, I tried to configure the new idmap interface. Currently without much success. I have two samba domains, trusting each other. Each PDC using it's own LDAP server. I tried idmap domains = DOM1, DOM2 idmap config DOM1:default = yes idmap config DOM1:backend = ldap idmap config DOM1:ldap_base_dn = ou=Idmap,dc=dom1,dc=mydomain,dc=de idmap config

Hi, we are running into a problem that winbindd sometimes caches negative entries into its tdb database. We are still investigating the reason for that. However, another question, when winbindd caches an entry into its tdb database, is there any timeout for those tdb entries? While walking through the code I don't see any relation between winbindd_cache.c and idmap_tdb.c. Is winbindd_cache.c

About two months ago our sysadmin upgraded to samba 2.2.7 and we have not had any oplock problems since. A heartfelt thanks from the University of Wisconsin in Madison to the Samba team for all their hard work. If our hundreds of users understood what was going on behind the scenes, they'd be thanking you too. --- Sam Barasch Computer Systems Support Department of Biostatistics

Hi: I have Samba3.0.14a-Debian installed on a Debian (unstable) system After setting smb.conf to act as a domain logon I connected to the Samba server from a Windows XP client using my personal login and password. Samba was set to export HOMES as a share with this configuration: [homes] comment = User Homes path = /home/%u read only = No create mask = 0754

Hello world, I have a very strange update problem: this night I upgraded from 3.0.5 to 3.0.6 (debian unstable) and the system broke completely with very strange errors (I did not change anything to smb.conf) - win98 users can log in, copy and everything - xp users can log in, they see the shares but they cannot access the files (read error in xp). I have tested it with Xp-Prof SP1 und SP2

Hi, are there any known problems with Debian's Samba version 3.0.14a-3sarge1 ? I read about client/server connection problems. Are there any reasons, why not to use 3.0.14a-3sarge1 version or should I go to Version 3.0.22-0bpo1 from backports.org? Thanks, Marcus

Hi, Does someone know a document which explains the TDB structure. functionalites, and format of the TDB files etc. I need to understand why some of the TDBs like messages.tdb, unexpected.tdb, brlock if not read_only, locking.tdb, session.tdb, wins.tdb are called with TDB_CLEAR_IF_FIRST tdb flags. Why some TDBs are opend with O_RDWR|O_CREAT flags viz. gencache.tdb, group_mapping.tdb,

Greetings, This is about a samba installation plugged on Active directory. I would like to bounce on : http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2005-January/099472.html I understand distribution groups are not "real" groups, as Unix people mean them. Distribution groups are, by design, only related to mailing lists, or so. My question is pretty simple : Is there a way to list the
