I've got problem with Samba3 when I want to connect to eDirectory. The samba could not connect to the local eDirectory server. The Samba and the eDir can be found on the same Linux box which is a SusSe 9.1. The eDir and the Samba are working pretty good but cant see each other. Is it possible to connect from Samba 3 to Novell's eDirectory ? What are the syntaxes to these lines in smb.conf:

So i have gone through the archives and see a lot of people asking if samba can use edirectory as a source for user passwords. No i'm down the same road myself =D my company is using edirectory 8.7.3 on Solaris and redhat enterprise linux 3. the samba server only needs to talk to the redhat edirectory server though. From the turtorials that i have read a lot pf people hook up edirectory

Aren't Friday's wonderful! I've just been hit up with a request from management to install Samba on our Solaris 8 UNIX servers to share out information to the windows PC's. This wouldn't be an issue if the backend was Windows AD but in our case it's eDirectory. The shares also need to be seamlessly accessible to eDirectory based groups/users without interfering with the

Hi, is anybody out there who is using Novell Edir. with samba? I have searched the archive and found some random notes but no real success story. Here is what I have achived so far. Maybe someone can give me some hints. I have tried the samba-nds.schema that comes with the 2.2.7a tar ball. While I was able to import/add it to EDir. it did not work for me, because the "lmPassword"

Hello, Can Samba join an eDirectory or a domain controlled by a NDS ? Acyualy, my need is to do SSO for IE with Squid, using the NTLM protocol.

Essentially, at this point my head is about to explode. I have been able to update the most recent samba-nds.schema from the LDAP CVS at samba.org. And I can add posixAccount users with the LDAPTools. But I cannot add anyone as a sambaAccount (./smbldap-useradd -a "username"). Each time, it adds the posixAccount portion to eDirectory, and then failes the sambaAccount add portion. Is

Hi all, I do have a question to Andrews statement... https://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2013-January/171054.html > You might be able to instead upgrade your Novell domain into Samba 4.0's > AD DC, if it currently backs a Samba 3.x 'classic' domain (or can be > made to), [...] I'm a little confused. I am probably able to run a Samba3 acting as a PDC with my eDir users

Hello, Has anyone run Hula Server (http://www.hula-project.org) and Samba on the same server and got the user authentication to sync? I imagine this would involve configuring Samba to use eDirectory (Novell) which Hula is using for store. I have searched everywhere for documentation referencing Hula and Samba integration/authentication but only found one article announcing that Novell has

Hello, We have a RHEL 4 Update 4 server that was configured to store its Samba passwords in eDirectory via LDAP. This was accomplished by adding the following three lines to the [Global] section of smb.conf: ldap admin dn = cn=admin,o=budget ldap suffix = o=budget passdb backend = ldapsam:ldaps://SERVER_NAME:636 After adding the lines and saving the file the admin password is stored using

Hello all. I am a little (allot) lost on my next hurdle in getting an asterisk system built. I would like to get my asterisk servers configured exclusively from database. I have read through the wiki on this subject but once again I find that there is a certain level of knowledge that is assumed. As of now I know nothing about databases in general and specifically MYSQL. I do not know

I am also interesting in good docs on this... anyone got any?

Hi list! I am trying to get dovecot to authenticate users against Novell eDirectory via LDAP. I have successfully gotten open-xchange to authenticate, and I have written a PHP module that authenticates, however I cannot seem to get Dovecot working.

Hello everone, In my Company we are going through a network redesign and Planning to retire our Novel edirectory, and Novel Servers and replace them with Samba4 (Over 150 Servers). We have setup a Samba4 test environment which seems to be working well so far. We are an organization with multiple locations and over 1200 users, we are also very heavy users of google apps. I have couple of questions

Hi all, I'm very close to having a working setup after blundering through a couple of typing errors that cost me several days of my life, with the following config: Samba 3.0.14a as a PDC Suse 9.2 Professional LDAP (eDirectory 8.7.3) passwd backend Idealx scripts Windows XP SP1 I can connect to any of the samba shares just fine using any of the users I've created, from XP and from linux

I have attached a diff file with the changes to existing OpenSSH source files to accomodate the NetWare platform. All changes are #ifdef wrapped using one in one of the following defines: HAVE_NETWARE - Building for NetWare USE_EDIR - Using eDirectory(TM) for authentication.

Hi, I am planning a Samba3+LDAP installation and was wondering about the use of putting users into different containers on the LDAP server (similar to what people do on NDS/eDirectory). Is it possible to then assign rights, options, ... to the containers and have the users inherit these rights ? I observed that e.g. SuSE Enterprise server and other SuSE products put all users in the same

Dear Help, I currently have a Samba PDC along with multiple BDCs using an eDirectory LDAP backend. While trying to figure out how to get the bad password account lockout feature to work, I managed to somehow mess up the samba PDC. If a user attempts to authenticate against the PDC with the correct password, all is well and works as usual. However, if I use an incorrect password, the Windows
