similar to: AW: add user script going Horribly Wrong (tm)

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 have 2.0.7 Samba for Solaris and I tried to join an NT domain but got the following: /opt/samba/bin> smbpasswd -j niaaa01 cli_net_auth2: Error NT_STATUS_NO_TRUST_SAM_ACCOUNT cli_nt_setup_creds: auth2 challenge failed modify_trust_password: unable to setup the PDC credentials to machine NIAAAWMAIL.

hi! you have to add the machine account like: useradd -s /bin/false -d /dev/null machineaccount$ passwd -l machineaccount$ smbpasswd -a -m machineaccount have you done this? gianluca -----Urspr?ngliche Nachricht----- Von: Michiel_Lange@actuera.nl [mailto:Michiel_Lange@actuera.nl] Gesendet: Freitag, 28.

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 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.

I'm having a little trouble adding my linux machine to my Windows NT domain... anyone know how to resolve this issue: [root@dev-zope-knox01 root]# smbpasswd -r admin1 -j CTI1 cli_net_auth2: Error NT_STATUS_NO_TRUST_SAM_ACCOUNT cli_nt_setup_creds: auth2 challenge failed modify_trust_password: unable to setup the PDC credentials to machine ADMIN1. Error was : NT_STATUS_NO_TRUST_SAM_ACCOUNT.

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'm still fighting with getting a Samba server (RH Linux 7.2, kernel 2.4.9-21, samba 2.2.4) to join an NT domain (NT 4.0, SP6). Everything I've read in the documentation indicates that this works well and readily, but I cannot get it to work. The error message received when attempting to join a domain is: ./smbpasswd -j TESTDOMAIN -r SMBTEST cli_net_auth2: Error

I have a win2k domain ... 2 of the client machines are Red Hat (7.3 and 8.0). I set everything up to use the DC to authenticate ID/PW. Everything worked perfectly until a week or so ago ... Samba would automatically create a home folder and the whole nine yards. Now I can see the shares on the Samba machines, but I can't access them ... just prompts for the ID/PW over and over. I can mount

I am trying to join an NT domain using Samba 2.0.0 (full version not BETA).

I'm relatively new to Samba so please excuse any inconsistencies with my terminology. I'm running Samba 2.0.6 on Solaris 2.6 and having problems creating the Samba server machine account on an NT PDC. I already have an NT based domain 'PCDEV' which consists of a number of NT 4.0 workstations as well as a PDC ('AULE') and BDC running NT 4.0 Server with sp5 (??). My NT

Yesterday, I found that a required file for Samba was empty and had been modified recently (< 1 hour before I was called to investigate). I later found out that the Samba software modifies this file on a set schedule if I leave the default settings alone. The file was PAYCHEX.<netbios-nameA>.mac. Because this file was empty, I figured I was screwed and had to add the machine to the

I have samba running on RH 8, samba 2.2.7-2, and using winbind.. Want "homes" share to automatically display as users access it. Thought I could use the %u but am having no luck.. Currently, have it set up but when user clicks on home share a username/password dialog displays and will not accept valid credentials for that user?
