Has anyone on this list been able to configure samba in such a way so that it will authenticate to windows 2K acitve directory. What I want to do is this: install samba 2.2.7 onto a Redhat linux 7.3 system, then configure samba (I think using something called smb_pam) so that it will join the windows active directory domain. Is such a thing possible? Has anyone here done it? I can't find

Hi, I am new to this list and to the world of Linux so please forgive my basic knowledge. I am after some information regarding samba. We are running a few servers with RedHat 7.1 all with dual nics. One NIC of each goes to a level 3 routing switch on one network and the second NIC in each server goes out to different networks. We have a few Windows 95 machine that

We are looking at implementing a Linux box running samba in the near future with about 1TB of disk online. The purpose of this box will be for basic file and printer sharing needs. I am doing research on the different journaling file systems avaible in RH 7.3 and up (ext3, reiserFS, and JFS) and was wondering if anyone has had any real world experience with them (mostly reiserFS and JFS) and

hei everyone, I have a weird problem: if I do a # cd /somedir; stat somesubdir |grep Modify where /somedir is some directory on an SMB-mounted filesystem I get one datetime... but I I do: # cd /somedir; stat * |grep Modify for the same directory I get a Modify time which consistently differs by 1 second. As I'm writing a perl module to detect differences in a filesystem and rely on the

Hi, This problem is really getting frustrating. I have set up my debian 3 box w/ kernel 2.4.2 patched for ext2/3 ACL support. I have also installed all utilies, both attr and ACL. I have joined the box to my domain using winbind and smbpasswd. I can set permissions all right using setfacl with domain+user but when I try to change permissions via LAN using w2k/xp I get access denied/or it just

Dear all, Got a problem that turns me around. I'm quite new to samba. Yesterday when i tried the wbinfo -u/-g and other options worked without any worry. Also there was no error in the UNIX passwd program where i even changed the root password. This morning onwards i'm facing with problems where the wbinfo says there is an error looking up the domain for users and groups -h -i works

> We're using Redhat Linux 6.2 and Samba 2.0.7 for our file server. It is driven by an Intel Pentium III 900Mhz processor, 128MB PC133 DIMM, and RAID1 (40GB 5400rpm IDE).

Hi, I've got what I think is a pretty weird problem. I'm using redhat 8.0 and their latest samba rpm 2.2.7. I have a directory /virtuals/SAMARCAN/asterion_caen/hd4008/tiffout with about 600 tiff files in it. When I go this directory and try and delete them, it deletes about 100 of them or so, but while this is going on, it says:

Hi all, Well, I'm getting somewhere I think, I now have both ACL support and domain login basically working. However I'm at a bit of a loss as to how to proceed. Basically I want to copy over a large number of files and directories (~300k files, ~60Gb total) from an existing W2k server to a Samba server. These files have existing ACLs set, so I need to preserve them somehow. I can

i have a question for the people who sponsor the samba team. "when are you going to realise that your money is being wasted by not sponsoring me as a design architect on NT compatibility software suites for unix?" here - yet again, another demonstration of how much money you have been wasting. hopefully this time this "really new" proposal - i.e. yet ANOTHER idea and

About two months ago our sysadmin upgraded to samba 2.2.7 and we have not had any oplock problems since. A heartfelt thanks from the University of Wisconsin in Madison to the Samba team for all their hard work. If our hundreds of users understood what was going on behind the scenes, they'd be thanking you too. --- Sam Barasch Computer Systems Support Department of Biostatistics

I know samba server can work in NT Domain evironment but I would like to make something a little more complicated if this is possible. I have two networks, let's say 192.168.1.0/24 and 192.168.2.0/24 There is no routing between these networks! (and that's a very important requirement). In 192.168.1.0 network I have a domain (let's call it DOMAIN). In 192.168.2.0 network I have hosts

Last week we installed Samba 3.0.20b on one of our servers, worked fine and does it's job well. But today the load was rising due two smbd processes taking up all cputime. While looking for hints on what was going on the logfiles show two types of errors (I don't know at this time if it has anything to do with the load spike): lib/util_sock.c:write_data(554) write_data: write failure in

Hallo, I've setup a BDC in the same subnet like my PDC. I observed that some User take the BDC to logon. The Domain-Join of some PCs will also done at the BDC. Is this behavior normal and wanted? If done so, I have to rsync the profiles or only netlogon? Best regards Matthias PDC: [global] netbios name = PDC workgroup = MyDOMAIN server string = DC (PDC) (%v)

Hello list, Is there a possibility to add entries to the winbindd_idmap.tdb manually? I know I can use tdbdump to see the entries, but is there a chance to modify? My problem is I have to map some uid to some Windows SID without using LDAP. On the other hand new user not having any uid in linux should map to the range of uid I defind by using idmap uid = 10000-20000 2nd Question: Is it

Hello world, I have a very strange update problem: this night I upgraded from 3.0.5 to 3.0.6 (debian unstable) and the system broke completely with very strange errors (I did not change anything to smb.conf) - win98 users can log in, copy and everything - xp users can log in, they see the shares but they cannot access the files (read error in xp). I have tested it with Xp-Prof SP1 und SP2

Hello, Two questions for you this evening. How do you tell the difference between NTLMv1-style authentication and NTLMv2 style? The CIFS dialect NT LM 0.12 does both(?), so does not appear in the NegProtRequest message (nor in the flags, near as I could tell). Do you ascertain this by examining the SessionSetupAndX message? If so, what parts? Is it possible to have more than one CIFS

I had samba working on an old Sun Enterprise server using a JBOD that was managed with veritas volume manager (legacy stuff that had long outlived it's usefulness). Management arbitrarily decided to replace the aging Solaris server with a native Windows server without talking to me. I instead tried to persuade them to use an SGI cluster I had been putting together and use newer features of
