Hmm...have you joined the Samba machine to the domain, using smbpasswd -j? > -----Original Message----- > From: Dan.Boskovich@piedmontng.com > [mailto:Dan.Boskovich@piedmontng.com] > Sent: Wednesday, December 18, 2002 3:13 PM > To: David Brodbeck > Subject: RE: [Samba] Re: Winbindd question/problem > > > > I get the message: "Could not check secret"

I'm running Samba 2.2.3 with winbind for authentication. Much to my surprise, I found I had a need to connect an MS-DOS system to the network. I'm using MSCLIENT to do so. I can successfully log into the domain and map drives on Windows NT servers, but I'm having trouble mapping Samba shares. Examining the log shows that the DOS machine is apparently trying to connect with a username

I'm trying to set up a Linux-based dialin server on our company network. I'd like to have PPP authenticate using winbindd, if possible. I feel like I've almost gotten it to work, but I can't quite get there. Files: /etc/pam.d/ppp: #%PAM-1.0 auth required pam_nologin.so auth sufficient /lib/security/pam_winbind.so account required

Sorry, my bad. I meant 'wbinfo -t'. Didn't mean to confuse you. :) > -----Original Message----- > From: Dan.Boskovich@piedmontng.com > [mailto:Dan.Boskovich@piedmontng.com] > Sent: Wednesday, December 18, 2002 3:10 PM > To: David Brodbeck > Subject: RE: [Samba] Re: Winbindd question/problem > > > > Hmmm!

I'm sure this is something simple, but I can't figure it out. After a printing system upgrade, my old PDF-writer script (which acted as an lp input filter) stopped working. I took this as an opportunity to rewrite it to work straight from Samba. But I'm having an odd problem -- I can't find Samba's job file. Here's the entry: [pdf2] path = /export/spool

Okay, this is a recurring problem that really has me frustrated. I have a samba server that's using security=server. There are four people who use it. It works fine for three of them, but the fourth one gets endlessly prompted for his password and is never allowed to log in. All are from NT 4.0 clients. What's really puzzling is that when I look at the log at debug level 2, I get the

Before I go and try to write something myself, I'm curious if anyone has a script that they're using for setting and clearing the MWI on a legacy PBX. I need to pick up a Zap channel and dial #63XXX to set the MWI, or #64XXX to clear it, where XXX is the extension number. One complication is that I've got a couple dozen extensions to handle the MWI for, and only four channels to work

Hi I actually had this same problem when running up samba originally. Check that the user has a valid unix acount and that you have added that to the folder share/valid users section.

One of our employees is having an odd problem with Adobe Photoshop. Files he saves with Photoshop are saved with permissions 777, completely ignoring both the create mask and the default ACL for the directory. Files he creates with other programs have the correct permissions. This has me stumped. It appears I can reproduce the problem at will. Client is Windows NT 4.0 SP6a and Adobe Photoshop

Hi, I'd like to reduce the size of the samba binaries. smbd for instance is about 1.5 meg, which is way to much if you ask me. Is there a way to create smaller binaries, maybe by compiling differently? thanx, Dennis ===== __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

I'm still struggling with this, and people keep asking me why the PDF printer still isn't working...does anyone have any suggestions? -----Original Message----- From: David Brodbeck Sent: Monday, December 09, 2002 4:09 PM To: 'samba@samba.org' Subject: PDF printing problem - can't find Samba's file?

Hi The following gotcha took me a long time to catch: f <- function(x, main0="red", ...){ par(col.axis=main0) plot(x,...) } f(1:10,main="title here") f(1:10,main="title here",main0="blue") I can't quite succinctly summarize why the second case works but the first one doesn't. -- Robin Hankin Uncertainty Analyst National

Hi: We're running Samba on a Unix machine which is a member of the NT domain. This has several interesting ramifications involving UIDs and passwords (I've listed those below). But this is my basic question: Does anyone have any scripts they use across UNIX and NT to create user accounts? I have access to rsh and adduser.pl with the NT Resource Kit, so presumably I could write

Just wanted to share this gotcha: 1. Create model A and initialize some record from within the very migration. 2. Create model B (perhaps 27 migrations later, two weeks later). 3. An observer of A uses B. Now you can''t do a fresh install (or go down to VERSION corresponding to 1. and then up). -- fxn

I ran into a nasty gotcha today with scp from openssh-1.2pre17. If you use scp to copy a file between machines when the local and remote file args correspond to the same physical file (e.g., exported by a NFS mount) the file is trashed. E.g., if your home directories on "homer" and "bart" share the same NFS-mounted volume and you do homer$ scp foo bart:foo file

I have a share I can't seem to create files on, and I can't figure out why. I get "Access denied" from Windows, and the samba log shows this: [2004/07/13 10:52:26, 2] smbd/open.c:open_directory(1293) open_directory: failing create on read-only share [2004/07/13 10:52:26, 2] smbd/open.c:open_directory(1293) open_directory: failing create on read-only share The share has the
