I'm running FreeBSD 4.4, with Samba 2.2.2 freshly installed, with the FreeBSD Ports package to install files in correct places. I've a Win2k system tring to join the domain "FREESIDE" It will authenticate ok from the win2k command line. "net use x: \\crypton\homes /USER:FREESIDE\jerry" It seems to work ok during the first part of joining a domain, i.e. password

I am looking to setup a domain server. I have tried and tried and this is the closest I have gotten so far. The main problem I have is in the user authentication. I am getting an error that the user or password is wrong. Currently it looks like Samba can not access the passwd file. What is this file? My log for the client give this error: [2003/06/05 15:35:35, 0]

I have gotten samba to allow an xp client to logon to the domain server before, my problem now is doing exactly that on a different machine. I can browse files, but I get an access is denied error upon join.

I really think this is a Windows problem, but since my very good friend Bill refuses to return my calls ... The client is WinXP Professional The server is RedHat 7.1 with SAMBA 2.2.2-8 I have rtfm several times both the ENCRYPTION and PDC-Howto, and I think I have implemented all of the requisite registry and passwd/smbpasswd/smb.conf settings. The client will happily JOIN the domain, but my

I've got 2.2.5 running on a test server (RH Linux 6.2), and I'm trying to get a Win2k box to join the domain, but I'm getting the following errors: (at log level 3) [2002/07/18 12:26:25, 2] passdb/pdb_smbpasswd.c:startsmbfilepwent(170) startsmbfilepwent_internal: unable to open file /etc/smbpasswd.

I have been (unsuccessfully) trying to get this up and running for the past few days. I have successfully setup samba itself NUMEROUS times but this winbind stuff has me stumped. I have built a fresh box for this server using Turbo Linux server 6.5 and samba 2.2.2. I have followed all the docs and man pages that i could find. 1. I have samba compiled (using --with-winbind --with-pam) and

Hi all, I seem to be having some weird problems while trying to add a workstation to an existing domain. Samba 2.2.8a is running on FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE-p17 and all the clients have Windows 2000 Professional with SP4 installed. This particular workstaion was part of the domain until its hard drive went under. The drive had to be replaced with a new one, the OS was installed and now when I try to

Lo, I'm wanting to set up a samba pdc with win2k stations. Actually when a when to add a station in the domaine i have configurer on my samba server i have this type of answer in client side :" immpossible to enter in this domaine becuase user or passwd is not correct". So but i have in smbd log : this in first : [2003/01/14 19:09:36, 4] smbd/password.c:smb_password_ok(467)

Hi all, We are having some problems getting a solaris 9(sparc) file server running samba 2.2.2 to authenticate aginst a windows NT 4 PDC. Let me say first that this was all working at one time, then we had some data corrumption on our NFS mounted /usr/local, and had to restore from tape. Due to some issues with solaris ufsdump and ufsrestore, stuff was not quite put back properly. We do

A couple weeks ago I upgraded my servers from 3.0.14a to 3.0.24. My main server generally has about 800 to 1200 people connected to it at any given time. Its a Solaris 8/Sparc system, samba is configured as security = domain . Everything seems to be functioning fine, I haven't noticed any odd behavior, haven't had any complaints. But, a few weird errors have got me concerned. 1) I

Hi. Today we had a prob on one of our servers. Dunno if this is something new or has been there for long. The prob is that system logs has been filled with the same error message from samba (more than 25Gig of them): Jan 10 16:05:03 host smbd[2828042]: [2024/01/10 16:05:03.982719, 0, pid=2828042] ../../source3/passdb/pdb_smbpasswd.c:333(startsmbfilepwent) Jan 10 16:05:03 host smbd[2828042]:

Folks: I've got several systems attached to a 2003 domain where we use kerberos to authenticate. When I upgraded a system to the latest greatest samba things stopped working. Just to find where it happened in the different versions of samba I downloaded, built, & ran 3.0.23d to 3.0.25c using the same smb.conf file. Turns out the 2.0.23d and 3.0.24 works but from 3.0.25 on it fails.

what is the 'passwd chat' line for Samba 2.2.3a-12.3 on Debian Woody that enables password synchronisation with Windows 2000 clients in a domain? I currently have this in smb.conf but it doesn't work: unix password sync = yes passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u passwd chat = *Enter\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n *Retype\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n I get the Windows message

Hi all, We have an old 3.0.7 samba running as PDC. As we have problems with XP64 clients accessing the domain, I compiled a 3.0.23c and copied the smb.conf. Some of the client work well with the new Samba, but most of them do not. Was there any relevant change in the smb.conf part between the two versions? Thanks Bgs

Hello all, We have a Windows 2008 Terminal Server which people connect into to run their programs. We are getting upwards of 60 people connecting in at any time. We are seeing error messages from the application complaining that it can't access one of the files on one of the shares. I have read that this problem is likely to be due to the fact that we run one machine as a terminal server and

FYI:, I'm fairly new to samba (a couple of months now), and have experimented - unsuccessfully - with getting it to work with clearcase. Does anyone have a how-to, or a list of gotcha's for setting up clearcase with samba? Thanks in advance for any information you can send me. Ozzie,
