I'm trying to set up a new fileshare, to replace an aging NT4 machine we've been using for far too long. I'd like to run Linux (RedHat 7.3) on the machine. Basically, I'm trying to create a fileshare "files" that people can transparently log in to from NT4 and Windows 2000 workstations. My boss has approved the use of Linux for the server, but only if I can make it

The winbind now works...my getent passwd & groups returns the domain users/groups What should be the next step? my clients (Win2K & Win9x) are still prompting for a password and I cannot login to my linux box using DOMAIN*domainuser. Must I add each domain user as a user on the linux box? Regards Winston Nimchan -----Original Message----- From: Sean Trammell

Am I correct in my understanding that with winbindd (and PAM), I am able to authenticate PAM aware apps against an NT 4 domain with no passwd entries? If so, how would one get ssh working with this? I've followed the winbindd how-to and haven't been able to ssh into the box with winbindd using an account that only resides in the domain (i.e. isn't in the passwd file). Could

Hi there I'm running a samba cvs server in a windows domain with a W2K PDC. I want to authenticate windows users through ssh. I'm able to login with a windows user to the server on the server himself but when I want to login via a windows client It doesn't work. The connection is refused. Could it be something mis configured in my ssh pam module. This is my pam ssh module PAM

I apologize in advance if this is a FAQ, but I couldn't find the FAQ document for this list. I also could not find anything relevant in other Samba documentation sources like http://hr.uoregon.edu/davidrl/samba.html. There seems to be plenty of information about using Samba *as* a DC, but I want to know if I can use Samba *with* a Windows 2000 DC. We have two DCs running Windows 2000, a W2K

Hello, I am have some interesting problems with the pam_winbind portion of samba 3.1. wbinfo -u and getent passwd works but when I login I get the following messages in /var/log/messages.

Hello, I have gone through the howto provided but I am not yet able to logon to my linux box using NT4 domain accounts. I can however authenticate to restricted shares and I can obtain groups and users via "getent" and "wbinfo -u". All I really need now is a working /etc/pam.d/login. I've tried examples from the howto as with others from the mailing list but I can not

I have been (unsuccessfully) trying to get this up and running for the past few days. I have successfully setup samba itself NUMEROUS times but this winbind stuff has me stumped. I have built a fresh box for this server using Turbo Linux server 6.5 and samba 2.2.2. I have followed all the docs and man pages that i could find. 1. I have samba compiled (using --with-winbind --with-pam) and

I'm trying to setup a Solaris 10 Sparc station to authenticate users on login with Windows ADS. I have found the documentation for this but having no luck in getting the pam modules to work. Here is what I have done so far: Compiling Kerberos MIT5-1.8.3: cd into the src directory ./configure --prefix=/opt/local gmake gmake install Compiling Samba 3.5.6: setenv CFLAGS "-O2"

I can't find the thread but someone last week was having trouble with 'getent passwd' not returning the Windows domain users as well as the local users. 'wbinfo -u' worked but not 'getent passwd'. I just finished a new server and had the same problem. Turns out I overlooked the the symbolic links in /lib. The file libnss_winbind.so needs to have a link to

Hello, Now that I have my Samba4 DC running great on CentOS6.4 I was wondering if somebody could help understand better how to install and configure Samba4 with winbind and PAM. I used the tutorial here: [http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba4/Winbind](http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba4/Winbind) This got me through to the point where "Using pam_winbind" starts.

I have a RedHat Linux 9 server that I would like to allow users in my Windows 2000 domain to be able to map shares from without actually having an account on the system. Compiled samba, configured with "./configure --with-pam". Got the server into the domain, and regular "security = domain" seems to be working appropriately - providing there's a local account with the

Hi I hope that I am not totally wrong when asking this on a Samba list, but as I followed a tutorial found at the SAMBA wiki I hope I can find someone how is able to help me. My goal is to set up a server acting as a SAMBA AD Server with single sign on for linux users. I use a Ubuntu Server 13.10 as the base. On top of this I installed a SAMBA 4.1.2 from GIT, did provisioning, Kerberos

How do I interpret what this mean? @"prfmstrt2+Domain Users" What is prfmstrt2? Is that a group created in /etc/group? I take it the + is a winbind seperator. What is the manner of assigning domain users to have access to a share? Do I still need to create the domain user name in /etc/passwd, assign it to a group in /etc/group? Do I need to use smbgroupedit to make the domain

I've got Samba 2.2.2 and winbind up and running fine between a TurboLinux server and an NT 4.0 PDC. I can "chown" files on the linux box fine using "$chown DOMAIN+username filename" but when i try to change an objects group using "$chgrp DOMAIN+groupname filename" i get errors stating that it is an invalid group name. What's the deal here? None of my group

Fellows, hello... My first post. :) The environment: Samba 3.0.5, Windows 2003 (domain controller), Squid 2.5-STABLE and FreeBSD 5.2.1. I'm facing this problem: While trying to authenticate the users inside Windows 2003 through the proxy server, using the wb_auth auth program, i can see the lines below in my log.winbindd [2004/08/09 22:28:12, 0] nsswitch/winbindd.c:process_loop(726)

Hello list, i did try to assign permission to folder for some users in samba4 as BDC, for example chown sandy Temp/ chown: invalid user: `sandy' when sandy is a users create in active directory, why sayme that sandy is invalid users????

I've gone back to 3.0.1 to try and get winbind to work with my Solaris 9 machine and NT4 domain. Everything works except user authentication. The wbinfo and getent commands do what they are supposed to. I've included a truss of 'su - ganguly' According to pamlog, the user 'ganguly' has been granted access but it is still hanging. How do I do a truss of a telnet login?

Hi all, we're using Winbind on a Solaris 9 machine to authenticate our Users, who are held in a Windows 2003SP1 AD. We are now using Samba 3.0.21b and everything works as expected. I configured the nsswitch and installed "libnss_winbind.so" and "pam_winbind.so" as described in the documentation and winbind is able to resolve the AD users and groups and the useres are able

hi all, as i heard, i need winbind to connect linux-clients on samba. i installed this - without pam (in the hope this would work...) but this constellation seems to be needed, as i still cannot connect, even if winbind logs my domain as accepted. Do i really have to do the pam-configuration on the samba-server-side too?? i just thought, it was enough to authentificate against smbpasswd. is
