similar to: Migrating from TNG to 2.2

Hello, I have inherited a samba-tng PDC (without ldap) that I am to upgrade to samba 3. My first attempt failed miserably. I copied over the smbpasswd and the domain SID, users were able to log in, but most were not able to load their profiles. I think I have to copy over machine IDs, but I'm not sure how to proceed. The migration section of the the howto doesn't seem to apply to

Gerry, all: HELP! On mandriva, I compiled samba from source and got it running, but I cannot connect from windows. (see my post from earlier "[Samba] Compiling and Configuring Samba for Mandrival") I think this relates to the group/SID changes discussed in the release notes. However, I'm not smart enough to figure it out. The tarball compiled and installed fine. It

Hello, We recently undertook to migrate our domain from samba-TNG to samba-2.2.2. However, it did not go smoothly. One of the main reasons is that even if you start 2.2.2 with the domain SID from the TNG installation, you find that the users' RIDs are different. This is because samba-TNG calculates the RID from the unix UID using the formula UID*4 + 1000 where as 2.2.2 uses UID*2 +1000. At

Dear All Firstly my thanks to Luke Kenneth Casson Leighton <lkcl@samba.org> for his answer - I have now 'use co -r SAMBA_TNG'ed and have a fresh CVS snapshot. The ./configure works again - yipee! But the 'make all' fails with the warnings pated below. I have tried the other CVS snapshots from http://sernet.pair.com/ and they are in a similar broken state (although broken

I've followed the instructions in the DUAL-SAMBA-HOWTO to try to install a Dual Samba system. I'm running Redhat 7.0 (awaiting my 7.3 in the post). I've installed it, added the user `CSMSRV-HEAD$' to both linux and also, using 'samedit' to TNG. This is the name of my HEAD samba server running. I've changed the security = share, and the server works on the network.

Hi, well, I guess that this is something that I need to plan to do :-). I'm developing a plan for a group of updated docs for TNG (and Samba, compared to TNG). Quickly, you're asking for 1) A bulleted list? 2) A Kvivio flowchart? 3) Some other comparison? Could you tell me in general terms: do you need to "sell" TNG to the boss or something? I can't give it to you now.

I need to join my Samba 2.2.3a to a TNG Domain (which stores users and machines account into OpenLDAP) using it as a password server. Provided that TNG is working fine in authenticating users on W2K machines, once they are logged in they should (in my intentions) see Samba 2.2.3a shares. In order to do this I provided the following configuration for Samba: workstation = <tng_domain>

I'm using an ldap-backed TNG PDC for domain logins with no problem. I've got a samba 2.2.8a fileserver that doesn't seem to correctly map usernames to domain SIDS. It is passing authentication requests to the PDC correctly, and allows users to map non-public shares, write to their home directories, etc. When a file's "security' attributes are viewed in windows explorer,

Just a small question before I dare to install Samba TNG: Is there any functionality in the latest Samba TNG (I think 0.3.2) which is *not* implemented in Samba 3.0?

Hello all: I just recieved Windows 2000 Professional Final Release. I am currently running Samba in order to serve my Windows 95 & Windows 98 Machines. From my understanding, I needed to get something called TNG. I read instructions on CVS and it downloaded TNG onto my computer. Then I went on and did "./configure", "./make", and am about to do "./make

ftp://samba.org/pub/samba/alpha or mirror sites. this version has security = domain tested and, shock-horror, working. it is possible to do SMB connections with WORKSTATIONNAME\username (wow) and actually, this is _necessary_, because otherwise, how are you going to join it to a domain? :-) :-) as root: samedit -S . -U root% -l log [] createuser root -p rootpassword [] exit samedit -S thepdc

ftp://samba.org/pub/samba/alpha and mirror sites. finally resolved some of the niggling issues that have kept tng from working: in particular, thanks to karl denninger for helping track down "invalid users = root" in the [global] section which stops root from being able to access anything, including being able to add user accounts! tng is now back where it was about 6 weeks ago: -

ftp://samba.org/pub/samba/alpha and mirror sites. when using domain user map, when logging in and then accessing the samba server, i re-enabled map_nt_and_unix_username() to allow the nt username to be remapped to the unix username / share. i think i also now have the GETDC request with enough correct rules in it to allow all the various spurious combinations to be supported. NT 5 wks now can

ftp://samba.org/pub/samba/alpha and mirrors. due to some confusion about how to use samedit's createuser command, i put a warning / security message in whenever createuser hostname$ is used. it basically says, now you can join the workstation to the domain because you have just set the trust account to the insecure, well-known initial value, and you had best join the workstation to the

ftp://samba.org/pub/samba/alpha and mirror sites rpcclient and samedit etc. on sun ultras were failing because getopt cannot be reused. evidence of this is by doing a samedit "createuser username -p password" and the reported password on-screen is total garbage. this was fixed by using the GNU getopt and getopt_long functions (hooray!) in the same way that rsync does. i have access

ftp://samba.org/pub/samba/alpha and mirror sites mainly a maintenance update: all bzeros replaced, as was done in cvs main / 2.0. readline detection added. if someone wants to add an autoconf test to detect -lcurses being needed by solaris readline, please create and send one. usrmgr user-account changing is now accepted (on systems compiled with the default, --with-sam-pwdb=passdb, this means

what you've all been waiting for: a merge of smbd from cvs main to SAMBA_TNG. please help test this one lots, i may have missed something from the code i pulled over from cvs main (70,000 lines of code pretty much copy and diff style!) i spent some time last night getting the security file/dir tab working, and lo and behold, you can view and change unix file perms (i am very impressed,

ftp://samba.org/pub/samba/alpha and all mirror sites. plenty of alpha releases have got to be good for the soul. - fixed security = domain. i had some nice recursion problems, i love filling up my process table with samrd and lsarpcd calling each other (...only kidding). - fixed up netlogond so that pam_ntdom can contact it on a domain loopback _even_ for domain logons, and netlogond will

yes, there's a .gz, too. there's also always patch files (diff.gz) for those people with really slow links [in russia, hi there, thanks for wanting to keep up with this stuff!] this release may be a bit dodgy, it contains three separate sets of changes: - andrew's simplified the file-opening. however, it doesn't deal with the shared NFS / SMB case, so jeremy is investigating
