Are the latest updates for Samba ( 2.2.7a ) available on the mandrake update system yet ? Mr Smiley

Help please I am running Samba 2.2.3a on Mandrake 8.2. My configuration file is below. I am trying to use XP as a client. It seems to find the domain, but it keeps giving me the dreaded "Multiple connections ... " message. I have tried running the "c:\net use * /d" command without success. Many thanks Rob ;*******************section global***************** [global]

I am using PAM and pam_smbpass.so with Samba 2.999 (Debian sid package). If, in /etc/pam.d/samba, I set session required pam_smbpass.so then login fails, and the log says: [2002/08/04 15:43:26, 0] auth/pampass.c:smb_pam_error_handler(73) smb_pam_error_handler: PAM: session setup failed : Module is unknown [2002/08/04 15:43:26, 1] smbd/session.c:session_claim(103) pam_session

Hi Everybody, maybe we are just too stupid, but for me it seems that there is some problem with holding passwords completely sync between *NIX-world and WIN-world when I use LDAP & Samba. If a user changes a password under Windows, with "passwd chat" the *NIX-Password (attribute: userPassword) can be changend very well besides the both Samba-LDAP-attributes lmPassword and

Hello, We have just migrated our large dev file server on linux+samba (Mandrake8.2+samba2.2.3a). It works almost fine but here are some question asked by some users I can't answer, after reading the manuals, the FAQs...and reading this list for a while : 1. Why can't NT clients do several levels mkdir ? I mean doing a mkdir toto/titi would create first a toto directory and then a

Thanks for any information and your time!!! I have been working on getting my samba 2.2.5 server to work with my 2K domain in (native mode). Setup is on a RH 7.3 system with two NIC's one on a Internet network the other is for the LAN. What I need is to get the XP/2K/4.0 systems to see the samba shares and us them based on the users and groups that are on the domain. This is a 2K AD

Hello all I recently recompiled samba 2.2.5 with LDAP, SSL and libsmbclient as additional configure options. I used the base 2.2.5-2mdk source package (to the uninitiated, it's a Mandrake package). LDAP works fine (as it had before), haven't really tested SSL, but here's the kicker: I can't find libsmbclient anywhere - although I'm not really sure what I'm looking for

If this question has been asked and answered, I am sorry but I searched and could not find it. Is it possible to have a samba PDC on the same server as a winbindd pointing to that samba PDC. The reason I want to do this is that I want the capability winbindd provides for a single sign on for things UNIX and the samba PDC for all things Windows. I don't want to have to run two boxes (if I

Hi All, I would like to set up a samba server but using the same user / pass for unix logins and smb logins. This works fine if I use non-encrypted passwords but I have to apply the registry patch to set my win98 clients to use non-encrypted passwords. Could I use pam_smb to authenticate the Linux box against its own smb server then use encrypted smb passwords? I understand that if the smb

FYI... I've just posted a snapshot of the current SAMBA_2_2 source code (tagged release-2-2-6pre2). This includes all of the post 2.2.5 printing fixes as well as fixing some other bugs (such as VxFS quota support). Please test and report back your experience. There have been some updates to the Mandrake packaging thanks to Buchan. We are not building RPMS or *debs for this pre-release.

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

Hi all, I have a Samba box (Mandrake 8.1, Samba 2.2.2). I have another hard disc that has Mandrake 9.0 + Samba 2.2.7 on it. I am looking to install this other hard disc into the Mandrake 8.1 box and migrate everything over. Do I need to do anything other than copy the contents of /etc/samba (smb.conf, secrets.tdb etc) over to the new hard disc to ensure that our Windows 2000 Pro workstations

Our Samba is working perfect except that when a users NT password expires and the user changes it they can't access the share anymore from Windows NT explorer. At the moment i have to log on to our unix system and change the unix and samba passwords manually to match the new NT password. I've been looking through all the websites on Samba but nothing has helped. I've done all sorts of

I am using samba 2.2.6pre2 from mandrake 9.0, I've set it up as PDC, When I share directories, their properties are read-only, even if I have the read/write permissions on the files. I'm able to rename/delete/create... It's a probleme for certain programs who check the file permission before some actions, Thanks for your help, here is my config file: # Samba config file created

Hi, im from argentina. Im working for a local University who has many lab`s. One of them has 30 machines with dual boot, nt workstation and Linux Mandrake 9.0, and a PDC nt server 4.0.

Permissions on that

Since I now have something which at least pretends to work, I suppose an announcement is in order. Those among you who track samba development are probably aware that samba 1.9.18p4 includes support for synchronising a unix database when changing an SMB password. I'm currently working on a PAM module which will provide similar functionality for all applications compiled with PAM support:

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi list, I'm on the way to implement samba with ldap on five servers (each owns a different nt-domain) and a master server which maintains the central user database which gets replicated to all the other servers.
