similar to: Error when running smbldap-passwd.pl from idealx

Hi. As you may have noticed, I'm trying to setup my Samba server so that it is the PDC. I'm reading the howtos on http://www.unav.es/cti/ldap-smb/ldap-smb-2_2-howto.html and http://de.samba.org/samba/docs/Samba-HOWTO-Collection.html#SAMBA-PDC . Besides being a PDC, samba should use LDAP as the backend for storing user stuff. The LDAP contains the user/group accounts as listed in the

Hi. I've now "solved" the problem. If you remember, I was unable to login from Windows 2000 to a Samba PDC. To "solve" the problem, I changed the computer name in Windows 2000 and then created a new machine account. First, it was "VIRTUAL-TEICH", and now it is "vm-teich". However, this time I created the machine account in samba in all lower case

Hi. When I tried to setup my LDAP I used the smbldap-tools from idealx. I discovered some errors which made the tools unusable for me. Here's a fix for the bugs I discovered: a) I decided to use a suffix in the LDAP which contains spaces, ie. I used something like "o=My Org,c=DE". Because the suffix wasn't quoted in the various calls in the tools, this didn't work. b) It

Hi! I'm following the idealx setup on setting up Samba as a PDC with a LDAP backend. It says, to add a user, one should do: smbldap-useradd.pl -a -m -g 900 administrator This gives me the following error message: ldap_modify: Object class violation additional info: object class 'sambaAccount' requires attribute 'rid' ldif_record() = 65

Hi! I'm using samba 2.2.4 and OpenLDAP 2.0.21 on MandrakeLinux 8.2. In some howto, I read that I should be able to add users to the LDAP using sambas smbpasswd. However: [root@teich smbldap-tools]# smbpasswd Admin New SMB password: Retype new SMB password: LDAP search "(&(uid=Admin)(objectclass=sambaAccount))" returned 0 entries. Failed to find entry for user Admin. Failed to

Hi again! ;) Sorry if I'm being a pest, but I'd really like to be able to have my samba as a PDC. Okay, I've now joined the domain and rebooted. Now I'd like to login to the domain. On the login screen, I've chosen a name which is in the LDAP and thus should be a domain user. I've also selected to login to MDKGROUP (domain name); ie. I changed it from

Hi! I'd like to setup a Samba server which should do user authentication against an Active Directory. Our AD admins told me, that we do not have Window NT 4.0 Domains available. What I'm trying to accomplish, is that the users can login with the same username/password they use with the AD. Also, if the password is changed in the AD, this change should be reflected on the Samba server.

Hi! I'm trying to setup samba 2.2.4 on MandrakeLinux 8.2. The server should act as a file storage for about 25 Windows 2000 clients. Setting up a "basic" server which just serves the files is easy. However, I'd also like to support NT ACLs on the Samba server. Well, what do I have to do, to get it to work? I'm using the Mandrake RPM for 2.2.4, which has ACL support

Hello. I'm having problems connecting to a Samba 2.2.7 share from my Xbox with Xbox Media Player (XBMP) 2.3. In the config file of XBMP, I added an entry which should make XBMP connect to a SMB share on my Samba server. I think, I've got everything setup correctly - according to the docs. However, when I try to connect, I don't see anything on the Xbox. After having set log level

net ads join will add your samba box to the windows 2000 domain, and the domain does not have to support mixed mode. You will need to have kerberos setup and tested on your system (linux). Do you already have this done? Errol ---------- Original Message ---------------------------------- From: Alexander Skwar <lists.ASkwar@email-server.info> Reply-To: Samba Liste

Hi. I'm trying to setup an OpenLDAP server on MandrakeLinux 8.2 for use with Samba. To accomplish this, I'm using the idealx Samba LDAP howto. It says to use "authconfig" to setup the system to use pam_ldap, nss_ldap and nscd. I don't have Red Hat and thus don't have authconfig. Translated to config files, what does authconfig do? Thanks, Alexander Skwar -- How to

Hi. I'm still having problems to login with Windows 2000 SP2 into my Samba PDC. The idealx howto says: "user and group rids must be given in hexadecimal in LDAP", however it also says: "However, the rids were written in decimal in LDAP. So at least 2.2.3-pre, Samba do not read them as hexadecimal anymore.". What's the case for 2.2.4? hex or dec? Alexander Skwar --

Hi! I'm trying to compile 3.0 alpha 21 on a HP-UX 11.00 machine. make bombs out with the following error message: lib/snprintf.c:790: conflicting types of `snprintf? /usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/hppa2.0n-hp-hpux11.00/3.2/include/stdio.h:493: previous declaration of `snprintf? *** Error exit code 1 I tried to compile it with gcc 3.2, which I got from the HP-UX porting centre.

Hi! The Samba 3.0 roadmap page says, that there should be binary packages of 3.0 alpha 21 available for Red Hat 8.0. The link points to http://download.samba.org/samba/ftp/Binary_Packages/RedHat - however there doesn't seem to be such a directory... Where can I get binary packages for RH 8.0?

Hi! Well, since I don't get IPP to work, I've also tried to setup the printer using samba 2.2.3a. With Samba I get a little farther, however I still cannot print. When I setup a new printer in the printer wizard of Windows 2000 SP2, I selected "Name" and pressed "Next" to get the network browser. There I see the setup printer queues just fine. I then selected the

Hello. I've now compiled and installed Samba 3.0 alpha 21 on a Red Hat 8.0 box (since I sadly don't have a current Mandrake box available in our network). Now I'm somewhat lost - what do I have to do, to make the Samba server join the Active Directory (which doesn't support NT 4.0 Domains)? Is "net ads join" the only thing I've got to do? Where do I set which AD

Hi all, I've compiled 3.0.7 on a test box which also has an LDAP server running on it. This is the first time for me trying to use Samba with LDAP. I copied the IdealX scripts into /usr/local/sbin and edited the _config.pm file. It is attached at the bottom, stripped of comments. I then edited my smb.conf to the effect of the following: passdb backend = ldapsam:ldap://localhost ldap

Hi samba admins, I don?t know is this the right place for my question, but I can?t find a list for my problem. I have some trobble to configure the smbldap-tools. I have download and copy the scripts to /usr/local/sbin. But a /usr/local/sbin/smbldap-useradd.pl testuser breaks with this error message: get_user_dn2: error in ldapsearch : /usr/bin/ldapsearch -x -h _SLAVELDAP_ -D '_BINDDN_'

Dear all, I use Dovecot SASL (2.1.15) on Ubuntu 12.04 for IMAP authentication and Postfix SASL authentication. I tried to setup SCRAM-SHA-1 as SASL mechanism. This works well on Dovecot's client side towards my OpenLDAP server (with libsasl-2), but fails on the server side (IMAP and SMTP). In the following, there's an extract from Dovecot's log, when using mutt as SMTP client:

I'm trying to setup a samba PDC/BDC with disconnected auth. and am stuck at step one because I can't get smbldap-tools to work right. First when I do a smbldap-useradd.pl -a test, it works fine. ldapsearch shows the entry properly. Then I try smbldap-usershow.pl or smbldap-userdel.pl or any other one for that matter and they all fail with a "user test does not exist"! Also if I
