Update: Just for my personal assurance, I decided to recompile samba again making sure to use the parameters I thought I had used the first time (./configure --with-winbind --with-acl-support --with-ads --with-smbmount). Without changing any of my configs, I restarted samba and winbind. One trick: to change rights on a file, you must own it or be root. This is where the "force user =

Hi all, I am playing with a test box at the moment running a Samba 2.2.7a domain on FreeBSD 5.0. I wish to enable ACLs, but I am not exactly sure what I am supposed to expect once they are enabled. I have created a UFS2 partition and enabled ACL support using tunefs. Since doing that, I have been able to connect to the Samba shares and modify ACLs, but so far the only things I have been able to

Due to FreeBSD not allowing '$' in usernames, and because I have to add a machine account for each computer I add to my Samba domain, what can I do to try and accomplish the following? 1. Automate FreeBSD to allow me to add machines to a domain the same way Windows lets you do it from the workstation. 2. Add user accounts which incorporate '$' without having to create a

Hi all! I am having some trouble with the above equation. Firstly: Samba == samba-2.2.8 LDAP == openldap21-2.1.12 pam_ldap-1.6.1 FreeBSD == FreeBSD 5.0 HOWTO == http://samba.idealx.org I have been following the HOWTO at samba.idealx.org, and so far I've found it extremely informative for someone who wants to get LDAP up and running with Samba, and who has never used LDAP before.

What should a configuration look like for Red Hat 7.3 when authenticating users against Winbind, for a telnet session? I have done the following so far: Installed Samba Joined the system to the domain Loaded Winbind Edited /etc/pam.d/login #%PAM-1.0 auth required /lib/security/pam_securetty.so auth sufficient /lib/security/pam_winbind.so auth required

Has anyone had the home directories of some Windows 2000 users become inundated with thousands (15k or so) of directories all of a sudden? This is of course a samba share on the samba PDC. It really renders the H:\ pretty useless. It also seems to occur only if you are logged onto a certain machine. Is anyone aware of any causes? Certain software packages that maybe create odd directories in a

Dear List, I neeed a grouped list with two sort of categorical data.

What are the general reason why a samba share might be slow..? Especially those mapped network drive? What would probably be the cause of slowness in the access and mapping time? Need help Kumaran

Hi, I am trying to find a way to change NT4 domain password from linux. smbpasswd works fine if you know user's old password but I am looking for a way to connect to PDC using all-mighty Administrator credentials and change other user's password. I have searched all over the web in vain. Have anybody done that? How? Maybe using tools other than Samba? Thanks a lot, Sergei

I just report a problem that seems to be know since quite a long tiem, but is neither reflected in the FAQ nor in the README's of the samba distribution. The problem is that using gcc under IRIX to compile samba gives a mismatch in calling semctl, because the structure passing conventions of gcc are not same as the IRIX cc conventions. (As far as I know semctl is the only function taht is

I've been trying to get the acl functionality (from windows) to work now for several days and have not found a solution. I've spent many hours Googling the web, and searching the samba list archives. If someone else has this working (in the 3.0 alpha code), I would appreciate seeing your config files, if you wouldn't mind. Goal: to be able to add user/group permissions to files

Hi, just wondering if anyone had ever though about making a port of Samba for windows. Now you may think "What's the point?" Well I'll tell you if you had as much control over smb as you have with Samba then you wouldn't need it for windows.. but you don't. Not unless you buy Windows 2000 Server or now 2003. By porting Samba to Windows you could take control

Hello all, Quick question (possibly!) - I''ve got a few records indexed and doing a search for ''test'' reports in no hits even though I know the word ''tests'' exists in the indexed field. Doing a search for ''tests'' produces a result. I would have thought that ''test'' would match ''tests'' but no such

i also have the same problem but the error is different, when i try to connect to Samab domain with right login/password, it says "The specified user doesnot exist" and when i try to connect with wrong login or password or both it says "Logon failure : user unknown or bad password", also confirm me how many and which accounts I need to connect win2k to the samba domain? below

I am runnning Samba 2.2.3a which act as a NT workstation connecting to CNS-NT domain. When I tried to connect to Samba, \\Bigred\home is not accessible, you might not have permission to use this network resource. Any ideas? -Paul Hong

All of my users are defined in LDAP. The Samba server is configured as a PDC and all the users can change their passwords. The problem i have is when i change the following field in the ldap tree : PwdMustChange set to 0 in order the have them to change their passwords. At this point the client workstation replies : The system cannot change your password now because the domain dc_stgeorges is not
