similar to: weird winbind scenario

Hi, I am running a Samba 2.2.7a on Redhat 7.3 in a NT domain. For authentication I am using the domainusers.This is done by Winbind 2.2.7a which verifies the existens of the users on the PDC. So I dont't have to create local users (/etc/passwd) for users who want to connect to the shares in the smb.conf. I authorise them by adding valid users = domain+domainuser to the smb.conf. This works

Trying to migrate NT4 to samba 3.0.0 or 3.0.1pre3 with an ldap backend. I add a backup server account to the domain and joined. Getting the SID and the ldap init seem to work, and I start windbind. When I run net rpc vampire all I get is a ton of "Could not create posix account info for " errors. Then ofcourse pdbedit -L returns smbldap_search_suffix: Problem during the LDAP search:

Hi All, Can anybody point me to a site where there is good up to date documentation on how to use Win2000 authentication for a samba server? Thanks, Craig

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 RPMs of samba3 for Mandrake were uploaded to the samba FTP mirrors on Saturday. For those who have urpmi media setup for your favourite samba mirror, all you need to do to get samba3 is (assuming you have setup the Sambaldap source such as at http://plf.zarb.org/~nanardon/?minor=1): # urpmi.update Sambaldap # urpmi samba3-server Please note that by

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 installed the RPMS from samba web site for Mandrake 9.1. Configuration is weird as things are labeled smbd3 or winbind3... Testparm runs against /etc/samba/smb.conf yet swat configures the smb.conf in a different location...hmm.... But really my problem is joining the AD domain as a member server. I can't locate the net tool. How is this done? How does testparm know to test against

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, While preparing packaging of te upcoming samba-2.2.5, we are looking at having samba packages with and without ldap enabled, however, we would like to try and minimize the duplication. But, it seems that most (all?) binaries resulting from a --with-ldapsam build en up linking to libldap. Are there really good reasons for nmblookup, smbcacls,

When I attempted to "rpm -i samba3-3.0.0-1.1mdk.src.rpm" this morning on my Mandrake 9.2 box, I got an unusual message that doesn't make sense. It said, over and over (thirteen times total): WARNING: user bgmilne does not exist - using root When it went back to root prompt, I did an "updatedb", but nothing for "samba-3" is found when I did the urpmi request.

I have successfully joined the XP machine to the domain. The strange part is, that it only wanted to be joined if it connected to the PDC and not the BDC. The way it is set-up is that the XP machine and a BDC is in one branch and the PDC is in another. Every time I would try to connect via the BDC, it would return a value ACCESS DENIED I stopped the smb service on the BDC, and got it to

I have Samba 3.0.0rc1 installed on a linux server DC-01 and it's configured as a PDC. The only share it has is netlogon. Users are stored in an LDAP passdb. All our users' home directories are on a second linux server, FS-01. It's been joined to the domain (command "sudo net join -U Administrator", which is the name of the "root" account). And here's a

Hello all, I updated my mandrake 8.2 samba from version 2.2.3a to 2.2.4, using mandrake cooker package, but after the update my win98 clients can not logon on the server any more, the clients can't even find the pdc, because i get a big time from the time that the user type his username and pass, and the logon error message. So is this a problem with mandrake's package or the logon

Hey gang, I just joined the list but I've read back a few months and so far noone has mentioned this so I thought I'd drop a line on it. I haven't tried this yet, I have to get back to work to do so but. I think there is an easier way to disable signorseal then to apply the path. Microsnot addresses the issue in the following KB article.

Hi, Anyone have by any chance created a swatlib? I'm curious about maybe making a swatlib that can be used as the basis to make a php loadable module to control Samba's config file.... Anyone? Alex

Hello, I'm currently running winbind (from Samba 2.2.3a) so that our Windows users can ssh into our Linux box. I've set up Samba, PAM and winbind, and it's working well. Users can see their files, and they can log in using their windows usernames. No problem. When users access their Samba share, they don't need to reauthenticate, because they've already done so with the

Hello all. First, a little background... I recently downloaded samba-*-ldap-2.2.5-2mdk , installed on Mandrake 8.2 and got everything working fine. I have LDAP installed for "single sign-on" support. I can use LDAP to authenticate other Linux boxes, and have Samba as a PDC for some Win2000 boxes - all working fine. Linux users are the same as PDC users, except for their passwords
