(Oups! I forgot to send it to the list so everyone could laugh about it. Sorry Vicky for disturbing directly) Good Morning, Vicky! Seems your smb.conf is messed up a little. As I can see you're using security = domain. With this configuration the smbpasswd-file/feature isn't need at all. Authentication is done encrypted with the domain user database, not with the smbpasswd file. The

Hi, I've tried to set up automated user addition and deletion on our Samba server, but something's going wrong. Users appear in /etc/passwd, but not in smbpasswd, so people are getting login errors and so on when they try to access the share. Have I missed a bit of config that's supposed to tell samba to set up smbpasswd's too? (smb.conf included below). Thanks! Vicky Clarke

I'm having a strange problem with samba, 2.2.3a running on an out-of-the-box SuSE 8.0 system. This is the first time I've set it up (hence the dumb questions I was asking on here a day or two ago). I've now worked my way through diagnosis.txt and a couple of odd netBIOS issues with the NT4 PDC, and at last I have some shares set up that my Windows client can use quite happily.

We have a Linux box running Samba in a domain with a Windows NT Server PDC. The samba shares have disappeared from users' machines this morning, and in the event viewer on the PDC (which is authenticating users) I see an event ID 5723 with message "The session setup from the computer SAMBA failed because there is no trust account in the security database for this computer. The name

I'm trying to work out why I have the following problem, and I'd really appreciate any help you guys can offer: I have a samba share mapped as drive o: to an NT4 server, which happens to be the machine that takes our backups. What I want to do is back up the data on the Samba share too. Simple enough, you'd ahve thought, and I can back up stuff from a Windows share fine. But,

I'm trying to get Samba 2.2.3a (as distributed with SuSE 8.0) working inside our NT domain . I'm prompted for a username and password when I try to map the share to a network drive from my Windows PC, but my Windows logon and the matching password are rejected. Stepping through DIAGNOSIS.txt and using smbclient on the Samba server itself, I've got as far as step 7 before things

I seem to be having a problem whereby every time a user fails to authenticate with Samba, smbd stops responding to that particular client and has to be restarted. Apart from 'what on earth's going wrong with my authentication', there are two things I'd like to know: firstly, is it the main smbd/all smbd's which lock, and secondly, if not is there any way (on SuSE Linux) to

I'm seeing errors accessing samba shares accompanied by the message "The local device name is already in use" fairly frequently on several machines around our building. It doesn't seem to happen with NT shares. Our NT logon script executes a 'net use' command to map the Samba share as a network drive; is this just a symptom of a share already being manually mapped on

Hi all, Please find below a complete transcript of the emails between debian/kernel-mm mailing lists. I've had a response back from someone on the deb mailing list stating: ==================================== The bug seems to be that sshd does not reset the OOM adjustment before running the login shell (or other program). Therefore, please report a bug against openssh-server.

Having got a little further through the debugging session, I now read in the manpage for smb.conf that Windows NT doesn't supply a password to Samba. My backup server is WinNT and needs access to the Samba shares to back the data up; it's also the PDC, so is theoretically the source for password confirmations. How does this one work - can a PDC in fact supply a password for itself, or

Following the recommendation of Prof. Ripley, I have created the Makevars file with the line: PKG_LIBS="-L/usr/lib/libm -lm -L/usr/local/lib/libgsl -lgsl -L/usr/local/lib /libgslcblas -lgslcblas" in the working directory. Now I have the code file Example3.c which computes the Bessel function value (the example is taken from the GSL reference book). I am running: R CMD SHLIB Example3.c

In a samba share with domain authentication on an ext2 filesystem, is there any sensible way to allow creation of folders, files and so on inside it other than making the share directory world-writeable on the Unix system? If not, are there other options for achieving this? I know I've heard about a Linux filesystem which has NT-style ACLs, but I've also heard that it's

Dear all, I'd like to find a minimum of (-loglik) function which is a function of k parameters. I'd like to run the minimization algorithm for the different subsets of the parameters and assign the fixed values to the complementary subset. How should I define my (-loglik) function such that it can be passed to the optim or other optimization function? Much thanks for any suggestions.

Hi people: I've been using Samba for a long time with some "basic" features like Samba working as a PDC, integrated with OpenLDAP, being a print server, among others, for a small number of "almost controlled" users (no more than 30 or 50 users). But now I'm interested to implement a Windows domain using Samba for a University with 6000-8000 users distributed through

Dear List, I would like to create several graphs of similar data. I have x and y values for several different individuals (in this case fish). I would like to plot the x and y values for each fish separately. I can do it using a for loop, but I think I should be using "apply". Please let me know what I am doing wrong, or if there is a "better" way to do this. What I have

R allows you to dynamically extend a vector by assigning past the end. So if a has length 10, then assigning to a[11] creates also a[11] with value a2[11] NA. So a is now length 11, while a2 is still length 10. So the occurrence of a[11] has a different meaning on the assigned-to side than on the assigned-from side. E.g. >a <- rep(1,10) >b <- 11 >a2 <- a >a[b] <- a2[b]

OK, I think I've hit a misfeature in samba 3.0(release, Debian/sid) when it comes to using both Samba BDCs and domain trusts. It seems that the domain trust password is stored in the secrets.pdb on the server establishing the trust. This, obviously doesn't facilitate BDCs exercising the trust relationship, or being at all accessable from workstations on the other side of the trust. I
