Is there a way to syncronise the Windows Domain passwords with the linux account passwords? SAMBA passes authentication to an NT box password server = * Users have local accounts on the Linux box and get access to SAMBA shares depending on which group (linux) they belong to and if their authentication credentials were correct. I've tried synchronising their passwords so when they change

I setup SAMBA to use winbind to authenticate of a WinNT PDC In the smb.conf I have a line template homedir = /home/winnt/%U which is file I also use the pam module to create directories for new users pam_mkhomedir.so skel=/etc/sambaskel umask=0077 which is fine again. My problem is that I can't tell or how do I tell pam_mkhomedir to create the directories in /home/winnt/<user>

Hi everyone, samba 2.2.5 The server I'm using has 2 interfaces so using the interface parameter I'm telling samba to use eth0 but for some reason when I do netstat it is listening on eth1 interface = eth0 (the IP is 192.168.6.10) netstat -an udp 0 0 138.79.161.225:137 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:137 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 138.79.161.225:138

Hi! My boss asked me to be able to share some directories on a FreeBSD Samba server with users already created (and used) on a NT 4.0 PDC server. So I followed http://www.sugoi.org/bits/index.php?bit_id=10 I just replaced the Windows 2k part by adding the NetBIOS name of the machine to the NT PDC. When I did the smbpasswd trick it worked like charm: testsmb# smbpasswd -j CH-DOMAIN -r PDC

Hi, You can use the command net rpc shutdown -S <machine name> to remotly shutdown a PC. Is it possible to, or could it possibly be a future upgrade to have a comma separated list of machines so that you can shutdown several machines at one time. Ie at the end of the day to shutdown PC's in a particular classroom? What are your thoughts?? Cheers ----------------- Kristyan

Hi. I'm not subscribed to the list, so if you can help, please e-mail me or CC me in the response. I've been using Samba for quite a while, and just set up a 2.2.2 server with winbind support. Console logins and SMB access work fine, wbinfo -t reports "Secret is good", and wbinfo -r domain+ntuser shows the right group number. In fact, the UID/GIDs are translated properly when

I am having difficulty with Windows shares mounted with smb on my linux machine. The mount directory will not have write permissions for anyone, no matter what. The mount directory that I use is /home/samba. It has 0700, or drwx------ permissions when it is not connected to Samba. It is owned by the user jhall, and the group root. When I mount it, if I use dmask 0777, I get dr-xr-xr-x. If I use

Hello, What would be the best way to design a table of posts that belong to a unknown depth of categories. Say i wanted to display the posts of data (i.e., craigslist) but the category could be something like NewYork/RealEstate/Housing/ForSale/ByOwner. Would acts_as_tree work best here and assign each sublevel to a different id? just trying to take the easiest approach here using the best

I am having some problems getting TelIax service to work with *. Outbound calls work just fine. When I try an inbound call the phone rings and there is no audio. Upon further investigation "iax2 show channels" indicates that the codec is "unknown" The provider confirmed that they are set for ulaw and so am I. Does anyone have an idea what could be causing the codecs to

I have a model that represents a Player, and within that there is a method that calculates wins and losses for that player based on a how they did in databases that are in the DB. When this calculation is over it is supposed to show a summary of the calculation. When testing it on my local machine using Webrick it works fine, but when I put it on my web server, after the calculation is done

Hi all, Looking around for a way to turn on server side logging of files transferred via sftp/scp, these kept-up-to-date patches cropped up: For SFTP http://sftplogging.sourceforge.net For SCP http://sweb.cz/v_t_m/ (near the bottom) Would someone from the OpenSSH team have time/inclination enough to look at adding these to OpenSSH itself?

Hi List - I have a friend that runs a Windows domain with Active Directory and is setting up some new laptops with Redhat. He wants to automate installs, etc. on these laptops as he would on a Windows machine. Just wondering if anyone has any experience with this - and also if anyone knows of a good tutorial for joining a Linux machine to a Windows domain. I've heard that it is possible.

Hi, I all of a sudden require to log who has been login onto our domain, and from which machine. Looking through the logs I do have, I don't seem to have this information for more than a day, even in the log.<machinename>.old file. How can I change this ASAP? RD7.3, Samba 2.2.8a :) Max
