similar to: Insecure smbpasswd with ldap ??

I'm attempting to get a Linux box to authenticate users from NT. I think it's possible by writing a PAM module (not hard) and using part of Samba's source to verify the password on the NT server. I'm getting pretty bogged down trying to work out how to do this - it seems like it should be simple - just take the password and username and ask the NT server if it's correct. If

Hiya. Still having fun with his mysql module - it appears to read from the mysql database fine, but I can't seem to add machine accounts (and I can't get too far unless I do this). It might also be my own stupidity too - let me know ;-) I've got a machine called "bbmachine" - without pdb_mysql, I can join the domain no problems. However, I need to rejoin the

Hi, Thank you very much for creating and maintaining dovecot! In my scenario, I want to use the password hash algorithms provided by libsodium: https://download.libsodium.org/doc/ So my difficulty is to have dovecot support libsodium's hash algorithms, particularly: crypto_pwhash_scryptsalsa208sha256_str On the sodium maillinglist I asked for help and received an adjusted dovecot code,

Hi, I'm trying to make a triple-boot recovery CD containing Linux System Rescue, XP Recovery Console, and DOS/WinME for GHOST etc. I can compile the ISO fine, and the System Rescue stuff works fine too, but when I try to boot the XP image isolinux says "Image checksum failure... sorry" and dies. Details below, separated with dashes

Hiya... Trying to auth users against a mysql database using pdb_mysql. Using samba3.0 from CVS, running as a PDC. Few questions as well: In the "username column:", I'm assuming I need a real unix user here? Can I have a whole bunch of "nt username" users (i.e. non-unix users) in the mysql db to be auth'ed with samba, but they're all using the same unix user?

Hi, i plan to mass creat user in ldap to use with samba I tried with ldiff like the structure below, the user is created but no home directory is created, user in not member on any groups. 1) how to do with ldiff file to put a user member of a group ? So i plan to use smbldap-useradd => home drectorie is created with the appropriated rights, user is member of "Domain Users" :

http://dovecot.org/test/ Maildir syncing is still somewhat broken. I can't really figure out what the problem is. Maybe it's in indexes after all which are just causing bugs in syncing. I think I'll finish implementing mbox syncing and see if same problems appear with it. This release has mostly dovecot-auth changes: - Delay reporting failed authentications - Log IP address of

Hi, all. I was curious how difficult it would be to add a new password scheme to Dovecot? I have to transplant mailboxes from one machine to another, the older machine running Post.Office from now-defunct Software.Com, which was bought by OpenWave, then discontinued. Apparently, Netscape's mailserver offering from the day also supports this scheme. There's code out there that was

ftp://samba.org/pub/samba/alpha and mirror sites 1) i fixed a problem with nmbd's GETDC response, it is responding better but still not perfectly (and 2.0.x and cvs main need to be fixed, as well) as there exists no explanation for the correct response to locate a Domain Controller using GETDC. the upshot of fixing this is that joining an nt workstation to a TNG domain is now _extremely_

Hi all, I'm a fairly recent convert to Dovecot/Postfix from Sendmail, so please be gentle (and assume I know nothing). :) I've got a Postfix/Dovecot/PostgreSQL setup with a custom DB schema for my email. This database is also used for a bigger program I use for all my hosting needs (domains, etc.). Currently, I've set it up to use plain-text authentication while I was

I have compile rpcclient using the last CVS, and have some questions regarding it. I would like to use rpcclient with perl to do a remote shutdown to NT Workstations on lan. >From my linux box ( Running Samba 2.0.6 ) I can successfully connect to the remote NT4.0 Wks, but the list of commands that I have access is only regenum regdeletekey regcreatekey regquerykey regdeleteval

dear redhat, i examined a friend's system today, to help him configure it. assuming that he just "installed" from scratch the samba package, it appears that you have provided a default smb.conf file for redhat 6.1 that puts samba private configuration files in /etc. the suggested options, for example show "smbpasswd file = /etc/smbpasswd". this is REALLY bad. 1) you

Hello, I'm about to start developing authentication/password-scheme module for Dovecot. So I would like to get some advice before actually committing to doing things in particular way. Hope somebody will be able to help me :) For the record, I am currently targeting latest stable Dovecot version 2.2.5. I have an SQL DB with mail users' authentication data. Passwords are stored either

Greetings! It is premature for me to send out a "success procedure for migration" yesterday. I overlooked things and I appologize for to this group. Anyway, after migration, computers, users, groups are all created and filled up with the correct membership. However, I still have the same problem with machine password and user password. Further looking into the detail, it looks

Hello everyone, I have a - maybe only cosmetical - problem. I am currently configuring two SLES servers running Samba4 as member servers in a Windows2008/2012-AD. (Yeah, poor us!) Everything went fine: installing the samba packages, getting Kerberos running, and joining the AD. But when I use id or wbinfo now to get user information I get lots of groups which cannot be mapped a GID and thus are

The isdnlog program (provided by isdn4k-utils.tar.gz) creates a root-owned temp file called /tmp/isdnctrl (or /tmp/isdnctrl0) and no checking for symbolic links is done. The file is opened append only, a user can make a symbolic from /tmp/isdnctrl to any file and mess things up. example: ln -s /var/spool/mail/root /tmp/isdnctrl -- dentoir Fart Foundation Security through immaturity
