similar to: About password length in solaris 8 and samba 2.2.4

I have run across an interesting issue when running rsync from Solaris to an rsync daemon on Linux. It works properly when I specify the password on the command line: RSYNC_PASSWORD=the_Password rsync -r /tmp/test test_user@test_server::test_user/topdir/subdir However, if I do not specify the password on the command line and am prompted interactively, it always fails. After some

Under Samba 2.2.4 (and possibly earlier), smbpasswd (when run locally) only really reads the first 8 characters, as opposed to the full password. Obviously, this can cause mass confusion. :) The fix is pretty simple (I would offer a diff, but this is the kind of thing the configure script should check for...) - under Solaris getpass() will only return 8 characters - you must use getpassphrase()

I've been doing so more tests with 2.9.9p2 on Sol8. Here are my finding so far: When a user needs to change his password and trys to run a command in non-interactive mode, it just succeeds without even trying to prompt the user for a new password. Damien submitted a fix - it works for me (is it going into CVS?). When a user needs to change his password and trys to login in interactive

Dear testers, 3.7.0-rc1 was just tagged; please start your testing engines :-) Upload binaries to the sftp and report your results to this thread. I'm sorry for the delay between branching and tagging. The changes to the release script took a little longer than I hoped. Thanks for helping with the release, and do let me know of any issues, questions, etc. The tracking bug for release

Dear testers, 3.7.0-rc2 was just tagged. Please test, build binaries, upload to the sftp, and report results to this thread. A lot of fixes have been applied since rc1, both to the build script and the code in general, so hopefully it will be less bumpy this time. >From this point, I will no longer accept merge requests to finish existing features; it's now bug-fixes only. Thanks again

Dear testers, 3.7.0-rc4 has just been tagged. It is identical to rc3, plus: - r245902: Revert r245355: change of clang-tools-extra symlink in the release script - r245947: Merge of r245927: Fix LLDB build on MIPS - r245948: Deprecate the DataLayout on the TargetMachine, and backport the 3.8 API - Changes to the ReleaseNotes. Those changes should all be safe, and I expect this to be an extremely

Hello testers, 4.0.0-rc3 was just tagged from the branch at r296762. This is a release candidate in the real sense: if no major issues show up with this one, it is the version that will be released. Please let me know if you find any issues, including in release notes or documentation, which will be on the pre-release web site later today. Please build, test, and upload binaries to the sftp

To everybody who tries do join an ADS Domain from a Samba 3.0.25pre2 server on Solaris 9: The Solaris9 getpass(3C) takes passwords up to PASS_MAX length, which is only 8. That means if you try something like # net ads join -U admin@MY.REALM and the admin password is more than 8 characters in length, you'll get "Preauthentication failed". The solution to this is to use

Manao ahoana, Hello, Bonjour, I've read: http://wiki.dovecot.org/Authentication/PasswordSchemes I have a users database with clear plain passwords. Dovecot authenticates users without problems against it. Now, it's time to move to CRYPT scheme. Before that, I would like to know how things happen. He have: - the user, (entering his password in the MUA) - the user's MUA (Thunderbird,

Hi, in the last weeks I've unsuccessfully tried to get Samba (2.0.5a) - Unix (Suse 6.2) password sync working. Maybe somebody can give me a hint, what's wrong. Enclosed you'll find additional information. Thank you for helping, Johannes -------- smb.conf: passwd chat = *password* %n\n *password* %n\n *Password* -------- password chat (manually): homer:~ # /bin/passwd web New

I've jsut installed Samba-2.2.4, from source on a Solaris 2.6 box. I'm looking to upgrade from some 2.0.x versions I'm running. I've createed a password entry using smbpasswd -a and added my password. My password has 9 characters in it. Using smbclient on the Solaris box, I can access the share, but I can't from Win95 or Win2000 clients (encryption is on). If I try to access

Hello everyone, 3.7-rc3 has just been tagged. Testers, please test, build binaries, upload to the sftp and report results to this thread. Again, a lot of patches got merged between rc2 and rc3, but hopefully nothing that should upset things. One thing that did change is that the release script now correctly symlinks clang-tools-extra into the build. If this causes problems on your platform,

asked once before and didn't get a reply, but it was probably lost in my back-and-forth with Jack.. where is the encrypted password support for icecast 1.3.10?

Sorry for the double post, I've been doing some more looking into this, and it seems like this is a separate problem of more general interest than my original AD issue. My understanding is that the repository does not maintain a configure script in the source directory. Packaged releases of the samba code include one, but if you're trying to build from the repo, you need to do it

Hello, at my universities CS computer pools we're trying to migrate our samba3 based NT domain to AD with samba4-rc1. In the past we had a little script which our users could run on their own from their linux account which created a samba user with their own uid/gid and set their password (via smbpasswd). We're trying to recreate this behaviour with "samba-tool user create"

Hi, I am maintaining a port of rsync (https://github.com/perlundq/yajsync) which is GPL:ed of course. The main purpose of the project is to provide a Java API library for the rsync protocol. It would therefore be really nice to be able to use LGPL as the license. But in order to do so I would first have to get a list of all the individual contributors to rsync and then be able to contact them

Hi everyone Following are a number of build-system cleanup patches. Some of them are prep-work for a possible upcoming automake/gnulib introduction. Best regards, Tiziano
