Hi, I've setup Samba NT based networks with OpenLDAP database. But to make sambas operations works fetching data to LDAP, it should have an account on LDAP that able to write some objects, such as passwords (when changing passwd) or object creation (when registering or joining to directory) .The scope of this account is strong enough to any containers on the directory, such as

it just says /usr/sbin/swat.new Aborted when i run it from the command line. nothing i can see in the logs... The swat binary from a 2 week old head now (with the rest of the installation from today's head) seems to work okay. what's going on with swat - did i screw up the build? Are others also having problems? (nothing in the marc) brad

Hi all, that's my first post in this mailing list. I'm looking for a very special and strange samba configuration (at least from my point of view and my experience) and I'm not sure it is possible to reach this goal. Anyway, this is my request: I'm running a M$ Windows 2003 Serve as PDC with Active Directory and file server, and I would like to configure in a Linux machine a

After trying to get WinXP (Pro) to try and find my domain so I can log on I've finally done it, but now when I try and join my WinXP client to the domain, windows asks me to enter the username and password of an account with permission to join the domain. Now which account would this be?? root doesn't work, neither do my other samba users. Do I have to create another user or something?

Hi everyone! I've already deployed samba-2.2.7a-2 and enabled openLDAP support. I now have a machine configured as a domain controller authenticating all windows users via openLDAP. openLDAP is also authenticating all of our linux users. I would like to install Exchange2000 on a windows2000 machine so our windows users can do calendaring (sendmail already handles all of our email needs).

I was wondering if anyone could help me with this one. I am having trouble getting LDAP and samba working properly on my Debian Woody box. I am using OpenLDAP 2.0.27-3 and the unsable packaged Samba version 2.999+3.0 and am using the samba.schema for my LDAP database. Whenever I try to join the network using either W2K or smbclient the LDAP debug log shows that the following filter is being

I'm having a problem adding a password to users. I get "NDS error: no additional information available (-306) when I use smbpasswd. Also I can see in ndstrace that the search string is (&(objectClass=sambaAccount)(uid=WORKGROUP/test)) and not (&(objectClass=sambaAccount)(uid=test)). I have "ldap fileter = (&(cn=%u)(objectClass=sambaAccount)) in my smb.conf. Another

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"

I am running Samba 3.0 HEAD with LDAP 2.0. I have ldapsam enabled buy when I try to log into my server from a W2K machine I get the following in my error log: sam_password_ok: NO NT password stored for user root. The log file shows that Samba successfully retrieved the root posixAccount record and the log displays some of the data (i.e. home directory) that is stored for root in LDAP. The

I have read over the lists and search the web, I know this question has been asked before, but I've not been able to fix my problem so I'll ask here. I have been successful in joining the XP machine to the domain however it when I try to login to the domain windows instantly kicks up the message: "Windows cannot connect to the domain, either because the domaincontroller is down or

Hi- I'musing the smbldap tools to create ldap entries for user logins through samba. I was just wondering if anyone knew what format userPassword is stored in. Is it an md5 hash?

Is there any support for having a UNIX share accessible from a Windows XP machine? If so, what else must I tweak? Any help would be apreciated. Thanks

Hi all, one of the win2k clients of my network uses an ID with one space inside, e.g. "jack smith".

PS Running RH 8.0 & Samba 2.2.5 When i had RH 6.2 & Samba ?.?.? the trick worked out. Thanx maq

FYI:, I'm fairly new to samba (a couple of months now), and have experimented - unsuccessfully - with getting it to work with clearcase. Does anyone have a how-to, or a list of gotcha's for setting up clearcase with samba? Thanks in advance for any information you can send me. Ozzie,

Samba List Serve Users: Is there a document or web link that follow that describes the steps to upgrade Samba from 2.2.5 to 2.2.8? The documentation on samba.org the I have read assumes that the install is a fresh install and not an upgrade. Thanks so much, Mark Roth Systems Engineer Mylan Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

Thank you for the response Axel. I will look into that. I did attempt to switch the PAM/Kerberos authentication to Dovecot LDAP authentication, but now performance is unbelievably slow. For example, with PAM/Kerberos, a user can log into webmail and have all of their emails/folders showing almost immediately. When using Dovecot LDAP, it takes literally 8-10 seconds to see the same thing. I

Dear all, We are trying to get the Windows client to print thought postscript printers to SAMBA box, Windows apps (Words, Outlook, etc..) freeze for a long time to spool and print to SAMBA ghostscript. We have a windows 2000 PDC and using SAMBA 2.2.4. Normal SAMBA file sharing, browsing and transfers are fast. I sincerely thank you for your help. Regards Steven

Hi, I am new to samba server, I install it sucessfully and the smb server also work well. Now, I try to implement the ACL with similar to the ACL in windos 2000 server. However, I failed to implement it until file level, can someone guide me to implement me. regards, cksoo

I've tried to determine this empirically, but have run foul of config issues that won't be resolved in the immediate future. Basically, I know that Samba + ACL + an acl-aware filesystem will allow me to assign unix-style permissions to arbitrary groups of people for a given file. However, Windows has additional permissions: delete, take ownership, and, um, I think possibly one or two more.
