similar to: simple LDAP question

I am updateding my LDAP presentation (ftp://kalamazoolinux.org/pub/pdf/ldapv3.pdf) to include a section on the Samba 2.2.x LDAP backend. But I can't find any definititive documentation on the "time" attributes: pwdLastChange, pwdMustChange. Either how the time is encoded or exactly what they mean. I've seen post saying they are hexidecimal (although they don't look it)

hi ! my systems started to behave weird today. i am running a debian/linux-fileserver (woody/2.4.18) that exports the user-homes and acts as a PDC via samba (2.2.4 --with-ldapsam) to my windoze-clients (w2k/nt). i am using ldap as authentification database. everything worked like a charme, until today. suddenly some users cannot authenticate against the windoze-machines any more. other users

I would like to have sync'd Unix and Samba passwords. My Unix passwords are stored in OpenLDAP for uniformity across machines and services. I have some problems with the standard solutions to this problem though: * if I have Samba authenticate from OpenLDAP directly (using the smbPassword attribute), then I get sync'ing problems when the password is changed via normal Unix means. We

hi ! sorry for posting this question, i think it is an easy one, but i cannot get the answer myself. i am using samba-2.2.3a + ldap running on a debian system with w2k-clients. now the problem is: everytime i log into my w2k-client, i get something like "your password expires today! would you like to change it ??" well, i do not really want to change my password everytime i log in,

I have two adsl lines on my linux firewall box and i want to do some load balance between them...i tried a lot of different things, but it isn´t working...Following the instructions of http://lartc.org/howto/lartc.rpdb.multiple-links.html i used the configuration above. using "iptraf" I can see some few packets using the ppp1 connection, but almost all the packets use ppp0 connection.

hi ! i have a problem with ldap+pdc too, and since no one answered ingo's request, i will try again. this is my setting: i want to maintain a central authentification for my small but mixed (debian/linux vs w2k) network i am using debian:samba-2.2.3a; compiled it with ldapsam enabled. i am using openldap2-2.0.23; compiled it with TLS enabled simple file-sharing works (at least, none of my

I need capabilities, for my data analysis, like the Pinheiro & Bates S-Plus/R package nlme() but with binomial family and logit link. I need multiple crossed, possibly interacting fixed effects (age cohort of twin when entered study, sex of twin, sampling method used to acquire twin pair, and twin zygosity), a couple of random effects other than the cluster variable, and the ability to

I currently have a setup of 1 NT 4.0 PDC server and to SUSE boxes sharing via a samba share. I seem to have to make 5 different usename/password databases. 1 for NT, 2 for each SuSe box (One Linux and one Samba). Is there a way to have 1 or maybe two databases to update? I've read about LDAP on other connections but I'm a little confused as to what is the best approach. Oh

Eric, I started as you instructed and when I get to this command, ./bin/update-packageinfo 2.2.6pre 20020730 I receive the error: no such file or directory next I changed to the RedHat dir. and executed sh makerpms.sh...this appeared to work fine. i could not execute rpm -Uvh samba-2.2.6pre-20020730.i386.rpm what I did execute is: rpm -Uvh samba-2.2.5-1i386.rpm and received the

I'm trying to impute data using the mi package, but after running through almost the entire first round of imputations (which takes quite a while), it throws this error (I'll include the whole output prior to the error for context). Does anyone know what is causing it, or how I can fix it? More specifically, how can I tell what is throwing the error so I know what to fix? Is

Hi, I'm running samba-2.2.7a with LDAP. I have almost 1200 users and more than 200 workstations divided in 7 classrooms. All my users have access to all workstations, it means that I have more than 1000 profiles in each workstations. I don't want to use remote profile because I have limited disk space and my users (students) don't even know what is a profile. I know one man who

hello, could anyone tell me if samba.schema from samba 2.2.5 works whit openldap 1.2.12 thanks

Hi I look for a way to generate a text file, holding the workgroup/user relation - which users belongs to a workgroup. Can I use a samba tool to list all members of any known group? Or maybe run a domain ctlr, and lookup the information in files on the server? I must get this info from a M$ lan with arround 20.000 workstations and some hudreds servers. Brgds Jorgen

Hello, i'm sorry if this is a question which was asked before. We use samba 2.2 on a RedHat 8.0 box width Winbind to auth our Windows users. Now we want to install the RPM package provided on the samba website (for i386 RH8.0). My first question is, how can i see, with which options the package was compiled. We need ADS Integration, ACL and CUPS support. Can i see, if all features we need are

I need to migrate from samba w/LDAP 2.2.8a to 3.0.1pre3 with tdbsam. Any suggestions how to keep from having to change all the profiles? I have read through chapter 30 of the HOWTO but it assumes keeping the same backend. I need support to munge_dial and that is not available without mysql or tdbsam.... Thanks in advance for your help. Sean

It seems to happen to us when we have a machine acting as a NAT router that we saturate with outgoing UDP packets; we use hping2 to generate them from a workstation connected via 100 Mbit

Hi, I've setup Samba NT based networks with OpenLDAP database. But to make sambas operations works fetching data to LDAP, it should have an account on LDAP that able to write some objects, such as passwords (when changing passwd) or object creation (when registering or joining to directory) .The scope of this account is strong enough to any containers on the directory, such as

Hi, I am running into a bit of a strange problem. I have a Perl script that creates usernames for mass-adding users. This script used to use the standard Linux 'adduser' command to add users to the system. I am now switching everything over to LDAP, including Samba. I have modified the custom Perl script to add users in bulk for smbldap-tools. system("smbldap_tools/smbldap-useradd -a
