similar to: Re: Samba - root preexec & login scripts

I have a perl script that I'd like to use to create windows 9x login scripts at login time but I cannot get the process to work right. I have RedHat 7.3 (actually the k12ltsp v2.1.0 which is a modified RH7.3) set up as a domain controller which is working well. Manually created login scripts run fine on the workstations at login. I'm using a netlogon script I found at

I hope this isn't too confusing, but I'm confused so... We have four boxes on our network (at least that I'm primarily concerned with). A Samba v2.2.5 PDC (linuxts1), one windows 98 workstation (kmorris), and two Samba workstations (jvan v2.2.3a & mrambo v.2.2.2). We're having browse problems on the network. The server is set up to be a domain & local master, the wins

Running Samba 2.2.2, having troubles with preexec when it involves the path parameter: Log on to the samba server as kris, user "users". %U expands to kris, %G expands to users. [profile] path = /data/profile/%U preexec = /bin/mkdir -m 700 /data/profile/%U writable = yes create mode = 0600 directory mode = 0700 This fails to work, Samba reports that it could not

Hi, I make use of shadow_copy2 and root preexec. The vfs root preexec is responsible to auto create home directories which initially don't exist. The script behind it is well tested and works perfectly. Unfortunaltely shadow_copy2 seems to be called before root preexec and fails due to the missing ZFS home share which causes the session to fail completely before root preexec even has a

Hi Steve, And thanks for your answer. Unfortunately it does not solve my problem. What I?m trying to do is to create two dirs using preexec in the same service. It works well as long as I?m only creating one directory, what I can?t figure out is how to create the second directory withing the same service. Eg. How would I continue after the last "fi" in the script to check for the second

Hi. I'm tesing Samba 3.0.7-a on Debian Sarge with Debian kernel 2.6.8. I am working on auto-creation of logon scripts, & am using a root preexec on the netlogon share for this. In testing I have passed the user ID to the script, and have used echo to test output. The netlogon service parameters and other info are below. The output from the script occurs twice in the output file,

Hi, I am trying to create two directories using the preexec command but I must be missing something very simple. I just can?t figure out the syntax. How would I continue this so that I could create dir2? preexec = if [ ! -e /home/%U/dir1] then /bin/mkdir /home/%U/dir1; fi Regards Robert ----------------------------------------------------------

Hi folks, I'm having a problem queuing an 'at' job from a root preexec. I have a shell script which queries LDAP for per-user quota information and sets the local filesystem quotas accordingly. This runs, and runs fine, out of the root preexec on our users home share. But we bin running a server with broken quotas for a while, and had to turn quotas off. We're ready to try

Hi all I wanted to send a message to users when they are mapping, to migrate to different samba server I am assuming preexec will do this, users are w2k clients, i would like w2k clients to get a message, like a popup windows box with message once they map to thier unix home directory how would i do that, does preexec will help me here thanks

One more time: root preexec does: run a command or script if the user hit the share. Now with msdfs proxy it need to be run on the linked host that carries the share. So you are better to set root preexec on the share of the linked host. I think there is no other way. Server1 [sharepointtoserver2] msdfs root=yes msdfs proxy =\server2\shareonserver2 Server2 [shareonserver2] Root

Hi, I was wondering if someone had any thoughts as to why "preexec" doesn't fire when "msdfs proxy" is used?

hi all i'm running into a little problem when using preexec scripts for the creation of dir's on my samba server.... script --- #! /bin/sh name=`getent passwd | grep %U | awk -F: '{print $5}'` mkdir /samba/test/"$name" --- snip of smb.conf --- [test] path = /samba/test preexec = /root/script browseable = Yes writeable = Yes

hello, in first sorry for my poor english i use this script to test if a user is already connected. #!/bin/bash resultat=$(/usr/local/samba/bin/net status sessions |grep $1 | awk '{print$2}') if [ "X${resultat}" == X ]; then exit 0 else exit 1 fi in the smb.conf i add these lines : [home] root preexec = /usr/local/samba/bin/check-session %u root preexec close = yes

Maybe I finally figured it out. I found that sentence "For example, the [test] and [homes] sections are unique disk shares; they contain options that map to specific directories on the Samba server." here: https://www.samba.org/samba/docs/using_samba/ch06.html Does that mean that this "preexec" in the [homes] section is not invoked if the user is accessing his or her home

I would like to know whether under battle conditions (lots of users trying to log in simultaneously at the start of a lesson) I can rely on a client's preexec script completing its output operations before the client gets its login batch file. I am a school network mamager with about 1000 teenage boy users of a new (to all of us) Linux-Samba server. (SuSE6.4 and Samba 2.0.10) I have pre- and

Sorry for the english :) Good morning, i've a little network with samba 4.2 on centos 6, NT style domain and win7 client. I've a root preexec and root postexec for tracking logon and logoff to the share. root preexec = /usr/bin/log_access.php "%L" "%U" "%G"? "%S" "%I" "%m" ON root postexec = /usr/bin/log_access.php

Looks like my nfsv4 kerberos and root access problem. In that case, root didnt have a kerberos ticket, and was not allowed to access the needed folder. I think this is a bit the same. Creating the users and profiles shares from ADUC is working fine for me but not scripted from user root. Greetz, Louis > -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- > Van: samba [mailto:samba-bounces at
