similar to: Winbind authenticated users - no home directory

Hi, im from argentina. Im working for a local University who has many lab`s. One of them has 30 machines with dual boot, nt workstation and Linux Mandrake 9.0, and a PDC nt server 4.0. I`d installed samba on my Mandrake`s, and work just fine, but when i try to create a local home directory for the users, a message pop`s, and says cant ceate home directory /home/user_name. Permissions on that

where and how can i call this module ? is it in /etc/pam.d ? how is the sintax ? i'm a suse linux user.. thanx !

Despite configuring winbind and my /etc/pam.d/<files>, I am still unable to actually log into a Linux session (ie, at the gdm login screen or text login prompt) using my NT domain account. Here is my /etc/pam.d/login file: auth required /lib/security/pam_securetty.so auth sufficient /lib/security/pam_winbind.so auth sufficient /lib/security/pam_unix.so

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

Can someone give me some pointers to documentation, concepts on how to integrate Linux desktop into a Windows domain environment to access shared drives / printers. I wonder what other peoples experiences were as well. If possible I want to setup Linux/Samba in such to replicate what an Windows workstation does, authenticate with a domain controller then be able to seamlessly access shares.

Hi! As a Samba newbie I have a big problem getting my Win2000 Server PDC users to authenticate to CVS/SSH on my samba 2.2.3a-12.3 debian woody machine. The linux server is member of the Windows Domain, and users can login via the network neighbourhood and their domain passwords (style: DOMAIN\user). wbinfo -u gives me all the known Domain users, so I think winbind is working correctly... Is

Thanks for any information and your time!!! I have been working on getting my samba 2.2.5 server to work with my 2K domain in (native mode). Setup is on a RH 7.3 system with two NIC's one on a Internet network the other is for the LAN. What I need is to get the XP/2K/4.0 systems to see the samba shares and us them based on the users and groups that are on the domain. This is a 2K AD

Here I go guys! I've already changed the configuration of my sbm.conf, also I made my samba server to be configured as a windows domain, yes! it is found in my windows domain now but as doing double click on this machine (samba) it asks me for a user and passsword, it does not let me get into it, I have created the same samba users as windows, but without any results. I appreciate your help :

Hi, i've tried to configure samba 2.2.7 + winbind on a Mandrake 9.0 linux system, and all work fine, but i've only a problem: when i connect with any Windows XP Client the system ask to me the Username/password (the computer is in a NT 4 domain) and in the syslog i can see this line: rpc_client/cli_netlogon.c:cli_net_sam_logon_internal(406) cli_net_sam_logon_internal:

Hi, I have recently upgraded from OpenSSH-3.5 to OpenSSH-3.8 on my Red Hat 6.2 servers. I use radius (pam_radius_auth) for ssh authentication. Since the upgrade ssh1 (putty 0.52) logins are failing. I've come to the conclusion that pam is skipping the radius section of the config file and is falling back to standard unix authentication. Is there any way of making ssh1 work with radius on

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi list, I'm on the way to implement samba with ldap on five servers (each owns a different nt-domain) and a master server which maintains the central user database which gets replicated to all the other servers. Now I have just one more problem, namely homedirs. I want every user to have a homedir to store for example his profile. This has to

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.

Outside the pre-auth patch by Markus to fix Cygwin and a few other platforms. SEND ME (privately) ANY required patch against the lastest snapshot. I'm doing the final commits this evening. Patches that have been temporary rejected for this release. - Owl's full patch for SysV Shm if mmap fails - mmap() on /dev/zero - mmap() on sparse file .. Not looked at the BSD/OS 5.0 patch

I have been on the web for hours reading email postings about WINDBIND. Here is the scenario. Samba 2.27 on Redhat 8, installed via the redhat RPMs. the first interesting note was that there is no samba-winbind rpm. It is a part of the samba-common.rpm in redhat. I have been using Samba as a file server for quite some time. And 100% of my issues with it stem from permission problems. So I heard

Hi All, Can anybody point me to a site where there is good up to date documentation on how to use Win2000 authentication for a samba server? Thanks, Craig

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

Hi all, As promised, I have started a howto document on setting up Samba with NT ACL support, based on experiences in my workplace, as documentation for this seems to be on the short side at the moment. It is available at the following address: http://www.bluelightning.org/linux/samba_acl_howto I have yet to convert it to proper DocBook format, and it needs more material (probably

I have a samba 3.0.2a -server running Linux, which I try to set up to authenticate users from a NT4 PDC using winbindd. Now, everything works to the point, where I try to list users with "getent passwd". Getent only gets the local unix-users and has no clue about the NT4 -users. Also, home directories for the NT4 -users are not created and no logs whatsoever are left behind by the

Hi, Yes it's possible to authenticate users from win 2000 server with winbind. For me the PAM configuration was the hardest part. I used mandrake 9 and it has a realy good pre config. And if you want to modify the folder/file permissions from NT/W2k PDC then don't use ReiserFS as the filesystem. Use either EXT3 or XFS. Mayby the ReiserFS 4 will have the ACL support. I have had

Hi, my etc/pam.d/login file is given at the end. i am using winbind and single sign on is working now. on the fly directory creation also works. when i check the /var/log/messages i have this error in there 1.Jun 23 05:40:46 niit158VM pam_winbind[1696]: user 'linwin/zubair'granted acces 2.Jun 23 05:40:46 niit158VM pam_winbind[1696]: user 'linwin/zubair' granted acces
