similar to: Linux and SMB using single passwd

Thanks for the reply. This will not quite do what I want as I dont want local unix users, only smb users. Reason: if a smb user is added and only an smb user and the Linux system uses pam _smb, I can deliver pop mail to the user without them having a local unix user. I have this working very well with LDAP and NIS where I only add a NIS or LDAP user but no unix users and I can still deleiver

Can anyone tell me how I can do a multiple level user share? What I'm having trouble configuring is a share that allows all users to use the first directory of the share, and then in subdirectories of the first directory only allow specified users access. I can't find anything similar in any docs on the internet nor in the O'Reilly Using Samba book. Thanks. Kevin

Hi, I have large size Roaming profiles in Win2k and Samba. Samba 2.2.2 is acting as a PDC. Does Win2k load all the files from scratch from the samba server everytime a user log in? Or does Win2k or Samba provides some sort of diff mecanism, so that only modified files are loaded from the Samba server(to speed think up)?

If I want to make two servers use the same encrypted passwords can I share the smbpasswd file via NFS? Will updates/locking work correctly? Is there an alternative?

I have a question with regards to using Unix groups with samba. This might be easier to explain with an example. Lets say I have two users UserID: GID UserA:Group1 UserB:Group2 etc..... I now have an entry in /etc/group that looks like groupdev::UserA, UserB If I have a directory with group ownership set to "groupdev" and group mode "rws" UserA & UserB cannot create a

Hi all, I have an installation where each user on subnet 192.168.1.0/24 is connected via a multiplexer. The problem is that if any client uses more than about 48Kb/s, the multiplexer crashes. I need to limit each client to under this rate, say 32Kb/s. I have seen examples on creating a class per host but is there a simple way of saying "any host from 192.168.1.0/24" so I dont have

Hello, I would like to configure PAM to sync Unix passwords to Samba passwords. When I add a new Unix user or change an existing Unix user's password, I want the same password to be stored in /etc/smbpasswd. I'm trying to follow these instructions: http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/pam.html#id2606200 It sounds like this is what I want to do: "A sample

In the interest of not having password divergence between NT and unix I've got everything authenticating against and ldap database. samba password updates are not a problem - i just use the unix password syncing features. however the other direction is proving to be a problem. I can rig pam to update both passwords with pam_ldap and pam_smbpass on machines that run samba. On some machines I

Hi. I'm looking for samba 2.2.5 or 2.2.6 binary package to use with squid. So I need a version compile with option --with-winbind-auth-challenge and the one provide with red hat 8 doesn't have it. I tried to compile it but it doesn't work. Can someone help me? Thanks in advance, Hugues

Hello, A friend wants to set up Samba (3.0.9-2.6-SUSE) so that users would log on using the same credentials as on the local Linux system, without a separate password database. He would like Samba to use PAM or /etc/passwd. Is it possible, and if so, how? -- Yours, Mikhail Ramendik

I am installing RH 7.2 on a machine to act as a Samba File and print server. During the install, there was an option for an SMB authentication server. I entered in the information for my Win2k ADC (running in mixed mode), but do not know what else is needed to finish this authentication process. RH support is less than helpful in this aspect. Thanks in advance for your helpful suggestions, and

I'm using SUSE linux 2.4.19-4GB samba-client-2.2.5-226 pam_smb-1.1.6-371 My goal is to configure a Linux desktop into a windows domain environment. So far I have managed to configure pam_smb to authenticate users to the PDC. So thats good. Now the problem is when user tries to browse a share.

Is there a way to run sshd on a windows 2000 server and have ssh clients authenticate to it using domain level authentication? Mike

Hello, In the third party software that we bought, which runs on Solaris 2.8 Server, we use the pam_smb version 1.9.8 to authenticate our users against the NT Domain. Now, our company is migrating from NT Domain to Windows 2000 ADS Domain in native mode. I saw the documention on SAMBA 3.0 (alpha 1-15), and it states that SAMBA 3.0 is compatible with ldap/ADS of Windows 2000. Have you created

Well I'm slowly learning my way around asterisk although as yet I haven't had the chance to actually hook the system up to an ISDN line. I am going to migrate from an Argent Office setup. My only problem is keeping costs down on the phones. The Argent system is running about 30 POTS phones. Can someone suggest the cheapest option? Should I get some kind of large scale FXS box or would
