I first start smbd -D and nmbd -D Then I start winbindd Then I join the domain (smbpasswd -j DOMAIN -r DOMAINCONTROLLER -U Administrator) It works Then I check my Secret (wbinfo -t) and it's good Then I list users and groups (wbinfo -u and wbinfo -g) and it works fine However I still cannot get "getent passwd" and "getent group" working, it just lists the local users

Greetings from NY! I am running SaMBa version 2.2.6 compiled from source on a RedHat 7.3 (Linux tux.#########.net 2.4.19 #1 Fri Oct 25 15:39:52 EDT 2002 i686 unknown) box.

I was looking through all my SaMBa documentation with a fine-tooth comb, and I noticed there is a line in the HOWTO, Section 12.4.3 "Pluggable Authentication Modules" in the last paragraph it states: "PAM is configured by providing control files in the directory /etc/pam.d/ for each of the services that require authentication. When an authentication request is made by an

Running Samba 2.2.6 on RedHat 7.2 in a Microsoft NT4 Domain, trying to create or copy a text file to a share from a MS Windows 2000 Professional workstation (client2k) gives 'Access denied' Reading the log file (level 3) for samba.client2k (not an activity I feel much comfort in doing correctly) it looks like I am being recognized as a 'guest user' which is a problem but for

Hey ppl ! My WinXP workstations are not able to join my domain.

Hi I am a newbie to samba after taking over from a previous administrator. I have upgraded to the version that ships with SuSE linux 8.0 and copied over the old smb.config and smbpasswd files. I can see the shares from a remote SWAT connection and also using the interactive method via a DOS window, but cannot get the shares to be seen via Network Neighbourhood. I am thinking that this may be

I'm new to this group so I hope that this is the right place to ask this question (if not, let me know): We are setting up several Samba servers and we've run into a problem with file permissions. We've have a few shared folders that we'd like for some GROUPS to have read/write access and other GROUPS to have only read access. I cannot figure out how to do this because

Hi, We have been having a few problems with a M$ Access DB held on a Samba server Samba version: samba-2.2.4-2N1 We have rebuilt a new server, and transferred the database over to the new box, along with word/excel docs etc. Everything is working fine, except the access database, which is running very very slowly (can be over a minute to open a record). Details are a little sketchy, but it

I'm having trouble getting myself in to the administrators group. I'm using samba as a domain controller. I have a samba account called administrator. I have these settings in my smb.conf:: domain group map = /etc/samba/groups.mapping domain user map = /etc/samba/domainuser.mapping local group map = /etc/samba/localgroup.mapping This is in my domainuser.mapping to alias the

Hi, I'm confused of where to set ACL? Do I set them in SWAT under Security Options (using Valid Users, Force Group, ..., etc.)? Or do I need to hardcoded them with setfacl? Or set them in NT client? Please direct me to the references? I already have xfs, acl, attr, compiled in. Regards, Norman

Hello, I've got a web server with samba running on it. The idea is i have a samba web share to which users can put web pages. My problem is none of the files are being shown, i have 5 folders and 24 files, only the five folders show up in a network neighborhood view. I've checked permissions, all the users can place content in that location, but the files are not visible. samba 2.2.6, any

Hi, Firstly I want to declare I am a newbie to Samba. I am installing samba over Redhat 8.0 I need to know whether Samba can replace my NT4 PDC in the following aspects and how to do it:- 1. ACLs.

Hi folks, I recently upgraded two client/server pairs to WinXP and Samba 2.2.6 (on Linux). Browsing mounted shares causes hangs when right-clicking or double-clicking/ launching files -- about 15 seconds. During this, precious little network activity is occuring. Something is hanging, locking, sleeping. Appreciate any advice. Hope it's a simple fix. If not, I'd appreciate advice on

Hello, I have downloaded and compiled 2.2.6 to replace my 2.2.6pre. I spent a large part of the day debugging the startup script because it seemed to always be starting two nmbd processes instead of one. Eventually I tried running just /usr/local/samba/bin/nmbd - and still got two nmbd processes. Is this correct behaviour? On the first server (Dell 4600) I thought it might be because it has

Hello, I've got Samba set up for domain logins and use winbind as well. What I'm wondering is if it's possible for the home directory to be automatically created when the user logs in if it doesn't already exist? If not, anyone have a relatively easy way to do this, in addition to giving the proper owner and group? Thanks, Scott

Hello, I have been able to use Samba to join our Win2003 domain. I have also setup folders and permissions in the smb.conf file. I can browser to the Samba Shares 2 ways, thru network neighborhood and by UNC/ip address. Both of these methods prompt me for login which is not successful. I assumed that if I userA had permissions to a folder in the smb.conf file that Windows userA would e able to
