similar to: Winbind in Samba 2.2.5 not automatically mapping the NT users with corresponding UNIX accounts

I was troubleshooting a problem we were having with some files not rsyncing properly over an nfs mount (the destination device is a snapserver (NAS) that did not have native ability to receive streaming rsync info, that's why we were doing this rsync over an NFS connection to the snapserver). Anyway, at first I thought this was just one of the quirks of the snapserver (it isn't

Hi there, i'd like to use NIS (AIX based) to authenticate the samba-users (to implement samba enterprise wide) in "using samba" is an option which should be configured (--with-nis) (NOT the --with-nisplus option) now i got 2.2.5 (source) - but in "configure" this option is missing Was this dropped in version 2.2.5 ? Which was the last version that's able to work

I'm testing Samba 2.2.5 with winbind. I can successfully authenticate domain users who do and don't have corresponding UNIX accounts as well as domain users who do have a UNIX account. Files created from PC side by usera show up in UNIX "ls -l" as owned by usera so I thought the automatic username mapping was working correctly, but I found out that usera isn't being

I am assuming that you have guest ok = yes, and that guest is the nobody account. It sounds like your name lookups are not searching winbind, do you have winbind in your nsswitch.conf file for password and group? Have you restarted your nameservice lookups (automatic on solaris, nsadmin restart on Irix, don't know about other platforms but a reboot should certainly take care of it if you

Samba team, I posted the following message on May 30 to comp.protocols.smb, but no one has responded to the posting as of yet, so I thought I'd try this email list. We are testing winbind and security=domain to authenticate NT users on our UNIX box in samba (v2.2.3a). Winbind is working correctly. Wbinfo shows users as domainname+username (we are using "+" as the

I know winbind (i think) is working fine. i can log into a unix box with my NT userid but when i try to access shares on my samba server, i get these errors: [2002/10/23 08:47:01, 0] lib/util_sec.c:(111) Failed to set gid privileges to (-1,-2) now set to (0,0) uid=(0,0) [2002/10/23 08:47:01, 0] lib/util.c:(1092) PANIC: failed to set gid [2002/10/23 09:17:08, 0] lib/util_sec.c:(111) Failed

I've built samba by hand before , but I've never seen this message, perhaps you can shed some light. I suddenly can't get past the ./configure script. ./configure --prefix=/usr/samba --with-winbind --with-automount gives me the following error: checking for conflicting AUTH_ERROR define in rpc/rpc.h ... no checking for test routines ... configure: error: can't find

corresponding UNIX user (or dummy entry in the password file) for each NT user who you want to authenticate, otherwise they can't get on unless you have set up "guest ok =yes" and defined a username for "guest" to connect as . This works for us, my NT karen account gets matched to my Unix Karen account, new files I create from the PC side get assigned the correct Unix UID,

corresponding UNIX user (or dummy entry in the password file) for each NT user who you want to authenticate. This works for us, my NT karen account gets matched to my Unix Karen account, new files I create from the PC side get assigned the correct Unix UID, my login directory is shared via [HOMES] correctly, etc as long as I don't run winbindd. However, when I turn on winbindd, the NT

We are testing winbind and security=domain to authenticate NT users on our UNIX box in samba (v2.2.3a). Winbind is working correctly. Wbinfo shows users as domainname+username (we are using "+" as the separator), however, the NT usernames aren't automatically mapping to their corresponding UNIX usernames as expected. Perhaps I don't understand how this is supposed to work?

1. What version of samba? You should be trying 2.2.5 or 2.2 6 for one of the more stable winbind releases. 2. Are you running NIS? Try changing the winbind separator to _ (underscore) 3.. Did you put winbind in your nsswitch.conf file? If so, did you force the system to re-read that info (happens automatically on solaris, must run nsadmin restart on Irix, don't know about other

Hi , I need to do my user_windows "eng.processo" to acess my unix solaris 2.x as user_unix "cs02929". As like indicate, I create in "global" of file "smb.conf" the command: username map = /etc/smbusers and into the file /etc/smbuser, the command: cs02929 = "eng.processo". This it don?t work. Please, what do I do to this work? Do I forgot

It seems that the rest of the world is able to get past the configure step in samba 2.2.5, but I get an error (I didn't have this problem when I compiled samba 2.2.2 or 2.2.3a, so it leaves me rather stumped). ./configure --prefix=/usr/samba --with-winbind --with-automount gives me the following error on both solaris and irix: checking for conflicting AUTH_ERROR define in rpc/rpc.h

Hello, I am running Red Hat 7.3 Samba 2.26 and winbind. I have been able to join the domain and test all of the following with these commands. All works great. winbind -u winbind -g getent passwd getent group But when I set up a share to test with one domain user account it just presents me with a password dialog box and does not accept anything. It should not prompt me but if it does

Did you make sure localhost resolves? Also, depending on your /etc/resolv.conf, you may have to fully qualify the host's name including the DNS domain. I seem to rember having problems with this, and some combination of using localhost or hostname.domain.edu or using the actual IP address of the host cleared up the problem.

I had samba working on an old Sun Enterprise server using a JBOD that was managed with veritas volume manager (legacy stuff that had long outlived it's usefulness). Management arbitrarily decided to replace the aging Solaris server with a native Windows server without talking to me. I instead tried to persuade them to use an SGI cluster I had been putting together and use newer features of

Couple questions to those who have the winbindd service up and running... I *think* winbindd is working now... I can browse the samba server through windows explorer and open directories. There is a little delay when I first connect... I assume this is winbind passing the authentication request to my NT servers and awaiting a response. The problem now is that I can't seem to write to the

Background: I'm trying to make sure my Unix and NT users are being assigned the correct UID from both platforms so they own files correctly from both sides. I was hoping to avoid username maps since our users with cross platform access already have matching usernames on both sides (or will when we reconfigure). I've been playing with several parameters, and fixed some things, but I did

Well, I managed to get Samba 2.2.3 up and running on our Solaris 8 machine. I installed with the winbind option and everything went though just find. I was able to join the NT domain and now I can do a wbinfo -u "and get a domain user list as well as a "wbinfo -g and get a group list. For some reason though, the authentication isn't working. I tried to "wbinfo -a" and

Hello All, I think I touched on this subject on another thread when I was having problems joining a WIN2k SP3 machine to the domain. Anyway, does anyone know of a way to modify machine accounts in the new format .tdb. The old way was pretty simple as it only required one to modify a text file like smbpasswd. I'd like to know what machine accounts I have listed in this file and simply
