The winbind now works...my getent passwd & groups returns the domain users/groups What should be the next step? my clients (Win2K & Win9x) are still prompting for a password and I cannot login to my linux box using DOMAIN*domainuser. Must I add each domain user as a user on the linux box? Regards Winston Nimchan -----Original Message----- From: Sean Trammell

Hello, I am have some interesting problems with the pam_winbind portion of samba 3.1. wbinfo -u and getent passwd works but when I login I get the following messages in /var/log/messages.

I am in the process of investigating whether it's viable to replace our NT server domain with a linux server domain using SAMBA. The key is if Samba can act as a PDC, with other Samba BDCs in remote locations. Is this possible? ---------------------------------------------- Gabriel Matthews gabriel@cinergycom.com Network Support Cinergy Communications When life hands you

Hi all, I was wondering if someone could lend a little assistance. I recently setup SAMBA/Winbind to allow users to login to a Redhat 8 box using their Windows NT Domain credentials. All is working well in that regard. The issue I am having is getting regular UNIX based users to be able to login. The following is my PAM configuration. For example, if I try to login as root, it does not work.

Hello, Installed the binary RPM (http://de.samba.org/samba/ftp/Binary_Packages/redhat/RPMS/7.1/) for samba 2.2.2 on my redhat 7.1 server. I got winbind to work and my samba server is now using NT usernames and groups. I was very unsure about how modify the pam.d files. The only file I changed was the /etc/pam.d/samba file. I pulled this configuration from another mail post.

Hello, I am trying to get winbind up and working for logins. Here is my error message from /var/messages: Aug 20 20:59:51 aslan pam_winbind[32713]: user 'lisa.snow' granted acces Aug 20 20:59:51 aslan pam_winbind[32713]: user 'lisa.snow' granted acces Aug 20 20:59:51 aslan login[32713]: initgroups: Operation not permitted Here is my pam.d/login file: #%PAM-1.0 # orginal before

I apologize in advance if this is a FAQ, but I couldn't find the FAQ document for this list. I also could not find anything relevant in other Samba documentation sources like http://hr.uoregon.edu/davidrl/samba.html. There seems to be plenty of information about using Samba *as* a DC, but I want to know if I can use Samba *with* a Windows 2000 DC. We have two DCs running Windows 2000, a W2K

When I log on with an NT user to a Linux machine via winbind, I get complaints about no home directory and wind up in / The docs don't mention this at all.

Hello, I'm trying to get a debian sid box to authenticate against an NT4 domain. I've followed the instructions in the winbindd man page and I think I'm on the right track. However, I'm having problems with PAM. As the winbindd man page suggests, I edited the /etc/nsswitch.conf and added some winbindd related stuff to my smb.conf file. I also edited the /etc/pam.d/* files.

I'm trying to set up a new fileshare, to replace an aging NT4 machine we've been using for far too long. I'd like to run Linux (RedHat 7.3) on the machine. Basically, I'm trying to create a fileshare "files" that people can transparently log in to from NT4 and Windows 2000 workstations. My boss has approved the use of Linux for the server, but only if I can make it

This might have been covered before and I've missed it. If so, sorry in advance. The file sshd.pam.generic didn't work for me on Linux RH6, I guess it's a Solaris file. Instead I copied the file /etc/pam.d/rlogin to /etc/pam.d/sshd . I wonder if this isn't a good way to go about things anyway, have an install target that does just that? Perhaps the rsh file is more appropriate

Am I correct in my understanding that with winbindd (and PAM), I am able to authenticate PAM aware apps against an NT 4 domain with no passwd entries? If so, how would one get ssh working with this? I've followed the winbindd how-to and haven't been able to ssh into the box with winbindd using an account that only resides in the domain (i.e. isn't in the passwd file). Could

I have been (unsuccessfully) trying to get this up and running for the past few days. I have successfully setup samba itself NUMEROUS times but this winbind stuff has me stumped. I have built a fresh box for this server using Turbo Linux server 6.5 and samba 2.2.2. I have followed all the docs and man pages that i could find. 1. I have samba compiled (using --with-winbind --with-pam) and

Several questions really (all on the stable 2.2.2 samba compiled with winbind and acls (and Brandon Stone's recycle bin), with a 2.4.14 kernel along with acls from acl.bestbits.at on a RedHat 7.2 box)... 1) Does anyone know how to stop the security event log on an NT PDC filling up with lots of ANONYMOUS accesses to the Security Account Manager eg: Object Open: Object Server: Security

hi all, as i heard, i need winbind to connect linux-clients on samba. i installed this - without pam (in the hope this would work...) but this constellation seems to be needed, as i still cannot connect, even if winbind logs my domain as accepted. Do i really have to do the pam-configuration on the samba-server-side too?? i just thought, it was enough to authentificate against smbpasswd. is

Hi there I'm running a samba cvs server in a windows domain with a W2K PDC. I want to authenticate windows users through ssh. I'm able to login with a windows user to the server on the server himself but when I want to login via a windows client It doesn't work. The connection is refused. Could it be something mis configured in my ssh pam module. This is my pam ssh module PAM

I've been tooling with this for a while, and I need some help... please!! :) Here's what I'm trying to do. I want a samba server to work with winbind, so that when I type 'getent passwd' it shows a list of local users, as well as my domain user list. I want a user to be able to ssh into the machine using their NT 4 domain username, like domain\username. That's pretty
