Hi list, I have installed Samba 2.2-8a on a linux box running RH 9 with LDAP backend as the account database. I have configured the system to function as PDC. When I try to join the domain from any Win2K machine, I get the following error: The following occured validating the name "mydomain". This condition may be caused by a DNS lookup problem. The specified domain either doesn't

Hi all. I'm really intrested on how the CentOS team rebuilds all of the packages from the src rmps: build environment, setup, tips and tricks. Is there documentation about this somewhere? Thanks. -- Andrea Carpani <andrea.carpani at criticalpath.net> Critical Path

Hello All. I am trying to set up a rails+mongrel+mod_proxy_balance application. Unfortunately the stock apache install on centos is the 2.0 series which does not support mod_proxy_balance. I could not find the 2.2X RPMs on dag or dries either. Is there a yummy way to upgrade to the 2.2 series of apache? I tried with the individual RMPS but no joy there due to comples web of dependencies.

Hi! I upgraded our sambainstallation today since it got into problems with Windows ADS 2003. So I installed all suse rmps for 9.2 (samba 3.0.14) and tested with a few windows boxes and everything works perfektly. No more strange errormessages in the logs about not finding existing users. Now to the problem, when I came back to my own computer, MacOs X 10.4, i suddenly can't use any

Hi, having read through tons of different how-to's about how to do this specific task has made me quite sick. Do someone know a good guide for this or can she/he make a quick how-to? I am atm using samba 3.0 alpha 20 but I gladly change to 2.xx if that would do the trick. Anyone? regards, Jacob Malmberg _________________________________________________________________ MSN 8 helps

In a mail to this list a command for shutting down a PC is mentioned, but without further explanation. It said something like this: net rpc shutdown -S <machine name> I do not get it: who shuts down who? For example, I have a samba acting as a PDC server for network with windows 2K workstaions. Users forget to shut down the ws's and I would like to do that automatically (from cron)

dear list On the samba.org pages there is an overview of Samba GUI's. I've recently (via a post on this mailinglist) discovered http://ldapadmin.sourceforge.net/ It looks very good. Anyone using it here? Experiences? A specific reason why it it not listed on the Samba GUI page? Regards, mj

I have Samba 3.0.0 installed on Mandrake 9.2. I also have Samba 2.8.8a installed per instructions from Mandrake -- but I do NOT start Samba 2.8.8a automatically. In fact, I don't use it at all. Maybe I should uninstall the Samba 2.8.8a rpm??? I will update to 3.0.1 as soon as an rpm is available from Mandrake. Anyway, I have a problem when I try to add a new share to my smb.conf file. I

Not sure if this is the place to post this but....I'm just going through the process of installing Samba and LDAP using the current version of Chapter 6: Making Users Happy (http://us4.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-Guide/happy.html#id2557011 <http://us4.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-Guide/happy.html#id2557011> ) I found one error in the Install and Configure Idealx smbldap-tools

Hi samba admins, I don?t know is this the right place for my question, but I can?t find a list for my problem. I have some trobble to configure the smbldap-tools. I have download and copy the scripts to /usr/local/sbin. But a /usr/local/sbin/smbldap-useradd.pl testuser breaks with this error message: get_user_dn2: error in ldapsearch : /usr/bin/ldapsearch -x -h _SLAVELDAP_ -D '_BINDDN_'

Hi, I got the following setup. I got a openLDAP server. This server is the master server for LDAP functions. I named this ldapsrv. I got a samba server with openLDAP install on it as well. This LDAP server is the slave to ldapsrv. I named this sambasrv. The sambasrv currently have the following setup in /etc/smb.conf:- passdb backend = ldapsam:ldap://ldapsrv.domain idmap backend =

Hi, I'm trying to setup a Samba with ldap backend, I followed tha samba by example chapter 6, followed the instcution in the book, and when it says to add an idmap data container, LDAP won't allow me to add the idmap something like this : adding new entry "ou=Idmap,dc=test,dc=co,dc=id" ldapadd: update failed: ou=Idmap,dc=test,dc=co,dc=id ldap_add: Constraint violation (19)

These scripts should function much the same as the binarys shouldn't they? 1. If you add a user, the users group must pre-exist. No adding users and groups simultaneously. 2. If you do add a user the gidNumber is set to the default specified in /etc/samba/smbldap_conf.pm NOT the users group as specified on the command line with "-g". This HAS to be a bug. 3. The option to leave

Hi all, I've compiled 3.0.7 on a test box which also has an LDAP server running on it. This is the first time for me trying to use Samba with LDAP. I copied the IdealX scripts into /usr/local/sbin and edited the _config.pm file. It is attached at the bottom, stripped of comments. I then edited my smb.conf to the effect of the following: passdb backend = ldapsam:ldap://localhost ldap

Hello all, I hope this is an easy one, I've read all the howtos but I'm still very hazy on how to do this. What I want to do is replace my NT4 PDC with a Samba 3.0 PDC with an LDAP backend. I've got my OpenLDAP up and running with the basic People, Computers and Groups ou's. I've put the builtin NT groups in too. I have Samba 3.0 functioning as a BDC The trouble is

Hy, I just install OpenLDAP 2.0 and Samba 3.0. (both from RPM). I used tools from idealx (found in src from Samba 3.0) to populate the ldap tree. My ldap is empty when i start, i just added index and samba.schema in slapd.conf.
