I have been on the web for hours reading email postings about WINDBIND. Here is the scenario. Samba 2.27 on Redhat 8, installed via the redhat RPMs. the first interesting note was that there is no samba-winbind rpm. It is a part of the samba-common.rpm in redhat. I have been using Samba as a file server for quite some time. And 100% of my issues with it stem from permission problems. So I heard

I have just compiled Samba 2.2.4 with the following configure. ./configure --with-pam --with-winbind I used the same instructions as I did go get Samba 2.2.2 working. I noticed the winbind daemon dies after about a minute. I set the debug to 10 for it and I found some confusing things. Why is it trying to connect to GIGDC1 with a null username? Is this why the connection is refused?

Does Samba has a problem working with trusted domains ? I have two trusted domains and a Samba server 2.2.2 configured with winbind running on RH 7.0, after working for a week its now only showing me the remote domain groups and not the local domain groups. The remote domain is called Sxxx and the local one Txxxx, does samba consider an alphabetical order or somethig like that when working with

Hi, I'm currently using the nbfw (netbios forwarder - http://nbfw.sourceforge.net/) patch with samba on a linux masquerading firewall/router. It works pretty well. I was wondering if there was plan to include this patch in samba (or TNG) I was also wondering if there was any way to use this as a mean to do cross-subnet browsing efficient. The paradox is that browsing works better between a

I was wondering if anyone has heard of someone trying to improve on rpcclient, specifically regarding the printer-related commands. Also, it seems that rpcclient has trouble returning a large list of printers (enumprinters), like in the range of 200. Has anyone heard about this?

I was curious what the status of the ldap support is in 2.0.5a and where I can get more information on what characteristics this requires in the ldap database. thanks -sv

Hi, I have been quite surprised at the largeness of the winbind memory leak. I have an awk script which checks this every n-minutes and sends me an alert when it exceeds a specified threshold. See below for some sample data. This is RH6.2 with Samba 2.2.2 and about 25 users. What I was wondering is whether there is any issues with killing and restarting winbind whilst samba is running at full

Sorry if this is too "OT", but there is a particular relevance to postings to R-help. Of recent times, I have received several postings via R-help (and some other mailing-lists) in which the "_" character is inserted where, presumably, a space, " ", was intended. An example (received this morning) is below, which (from the headers) was originally sent through Yahoo

Hello all, I'm having an issue with Winbind and I'm not sure if it's occurring by design or not. My Samba server resides in a Windows NT domain and uses winbindd to authenticate to a mixed-mode 2003 domain over a trust relationship. Everything works the way it ought to. However, every so often my users experience delays of anywhere from 30 to 60 seconds when connecting to a share,

Hi list, I'm using samba 3.0.26a with cups as printing backend, which are both working fine. However, I would like to grant all users access to all print jobs, but without granting them the right to add or modify printers and printer settings. When I grant users the SePrintOperatorPrivilege privilege, they can indeed cancel other people's jobs, but then they can also rename printers

This post cannot be left without comment. People who don't know you or Adrian might get a wrong impression. I know Adrian quite well and know that he is one of the real experts in this industry and he and his stuff does not deserve such a treatment. I would recommend that you change your attitude. It seems like you did not get what you want (for free) and you complain like a small child. An

Hi, guys. I have an issue with accessing to my sysvol share with smb2 or smb3 clients. I have an issue with editing my Group Policy from Windows 7,8,8.1,10 or Windows Server 2012 clients with RSAT installed and everything works fine when I edit group policy from Windows XP machine. I disable SMB2 & SMB3 in my Windows server machine and it fix the problem, but is it a correct workaround for my

Hi, The openssh-unix-dev list now requires posts from non-subscribed addresses to pass a challenge-response before being accepted to the list. This may bite you if you use a different address to post from the one you subscribed with, but you should only need to perform the challenge- response once (it will remember your address from then on). Apologies for any inconvenience, but this should

Hello, I've installed & configured NUT 2.0.4 connected over a serial port to an MGE USBS 750. When the UPS enters the 'critical' state (ie, battery load below the defined battery.charge.low AND power input off), the UPS just shutdown itself instead of notifying NUT. When I say the UPS just shutdown, I mean it autonomously shut down itself within one second after reaching the

Hello all, I've just installed Wine 20040813 on a Linux Computer (SusE 9.2) without a Native Windows environment. I've installed a few Windows software programs and things seems to be ok for the most part. One of my Applications will not run if I call it using wine direct from the shell command line. If, however, i frst call 'winefile' and then start my application from

I'm playing the "Honey" movie (both Honey-small and Honey-large) and I notice significant slowdown during periods of lots of motion (when the camera shakes, when the first man hops into bed, when people turn around and approach the camera, etc.). The audio plays smoothly all the time but when there is a lot of motion, the picture freezes and resumes when there's less motion.

I'm writing a stackable file system and one of it's features is that it can combine many sparse files into a single view. On ext2/3 I was using bmap to give me the information needed, so for instance, if I created a big sparse file and tacked on some information at the end on ext2/3 I'd get something like blade12:~# ~/a.out abc File: abc Size: 30002 Blocks: 8 Blocksize: 4096 0

Hi All, I am looking into the feasability of using Samba/LDAP for domain control across several schools in my area, and would be interested to hear of anyone who has any experience/thoughts on how this could work. The schools share a community learning resource centre, and I am looking for ways for all users to be able to log in at their own schools, and also at the learning resource
