Hi, Could someone explain, why was parameter "domain admin group" removed from samba3? passdb/pdb_ldap got totally rewritten... but why remove an useful variable... # Removed Parameters (order alphabetically): # * domain admin group In 2.2.8 (with LDAP backend) I defined domain admin group = @"Domain Admins" and added several users to that group for creating machine

Hi, I've a samba-3.0.2a running perfectly on redhat-8. Filesystem is EXT3 with ACL support. I can't upgrade the PDC to 3.0.3 or 3.0.4, because shares are only read-only. In 3.0.3 only home share and temp share are writable. All other shares are in read-only mode. Users can see the files/directories, but can't save anything or create new items. When trying to create a new item -

Hi, I want to achieve, that the IT staff could add machines (2000/XP) to samba-3 (LDAP backend) on the fly. Creating a new machine account to LDAP requires special access to samba (uid=0). In samba-2.2.x was a great parameter called "domain admin group". So everyone, who belonged to the specified group and root (uid=0) could modify LDAP. Others got message - "cannot access LDAP

Hi, Running samba 3.0.0, LDAP passdb. I've in smb.conf (script is from samba3.0.0 source tree) add machine script = /usr/local/sbin/smbldap-useradd.pl -w %u delete user script = /usr/local/sbin/smbldap-userdel.pl %u When a machine (win 2000/xp) is added once to samba domain on-the-fly. Everything works well. Things get tricky, when there's need to change machine name. Samba doesn't

I currently use lattice functions to produce multiple pages of plots using the "layout" argument to specify the number of rows and columns of panels, e.g., xyplot(price ~ carat | clarity, diamonds, layout = c(2, 2)) This results in 2 pages of 4 panels each. "diamonds" is a data.frame distributed with ggplot2. I would like to do the same with ggplot2 but have been

Dear all, The other day I was reading this post [1] that slightly surprised me: "To reject the null of no correlation, an hypothsis test based on the normal distribution. If normality is not the base assumption your working from then p-values, significance tests and conf. intervals dont mean much (the value of the coefficient is not reliable) " (BOB SAMOHYL). To me this implied that in

Hi, I've recently reinstalled our Samba server with a view to getting it working as a PDC using the tdbsam backend. I've successfully connected a number of XP Pro SP2 clients to the domain and can login ok, but I'm have problems getting the clients to read/apply an NTConfig.POL file I created following the instructions at http://www.pcc-services.com/custom_poledit.html I'm seeing

Hi, In smbldap-useradd.pl is a pice of code, which find the first unused uid starting from $UID_START (for example 1000). if (!defined($userUidNumber)) { # find first unused uid starting from $UID_START while (defined(getpwuid($UID_START))) { $UID_START++; } I've over 500 UID's in use (maximum UID is 1547). It works well, until you delete an user. After deleting an user,

Hi, I still have my problem that my samba PDC doesnt want to accept winbind queries. wbinfo -u or -g or -t does only generate errors. the logfiles show a blissfull silence. who has a working PDC with winbind in samba? I really need it urgently now! Here is my smb.conf file [global] workgroup = SMB3 netbios name = SMB-TEST add user script = /usr/sbin/useradd -m %u delete user script =

I have been trying for 2 months to get my samba server to add machine accounts 'on the fly" I have added both of these to my smb.conf add user script = /usr/sbin/useradd -d /dev/null -g 100 -s /bin/false -M %u add machine script = /usr/sbin/useradd -d /dev/null -g 102 -s /bin/false Neither of these seems to do anything. I have around 250 computers to add, so adding the machine

I suggest to add this line also to samba-pdc help. But still I ran into problems. I fixed the passdb lines on PDC and BDC. If the second server (on PDC slave-ldap and on BDC

Debian Woody with security updates Linux kernel 2.2.25 Samba 3.0.0 libc6 2.2.5 The problem I have is with a windows application that uses samba. This application is crucial for the organization, so if this is not fixed, and soon, we will have to ditch Samba and move to a windows server. I *really* don't want to do this, as Samba has been working so well for years now and billg is rich enough

Hi, Samba-3 with LDAP backend is capable in this. I'm using it and it works. All you have to do, is to use LDAP and set proper account policies: $ pdbedit -P "bad lockout attempt" -C 5 (after 5 wrong password, user account will be locked out - samba sets password hashes to ***NOPASSWORD*** and user is unable to logon). $ pdbedit -P "min password length" -C 9 # password

I've this problems. I'm using on my smb.conf # Sincronizacion de cuentas LDAP, NT y LM # unix password sync = Yes ldap passwd sync = Yes passwd program = /usr/sbin/smbldap-passwd -u "%u" passwd chat = "Changing *\nNew password*" %n\n "*Retype new password*" %n\n" [2009/09/03 14:05:16, 1] smbd/chgpasswd.c:change_oem_password(1057) Sep 3 14:05:16

This problem is something about SAMBA smbd. It doesn't matter whether samba runs also as WINS server. I wrote earlier: http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2003-December/077722.html My networks WINS server is WINDOWS 2000, not samba. I had both my PDC and BDC upgraded to 3.0.1 once. The errors accessing W2K workstation went away after downgrading both samba servers to 3.0.0. Even BDC can

Hi, I want to get my SAMBA-3.0.0 domain to trust W2K AD (mixed mode) both ways. I don't want to make my samba box an AD member, just trust it. Samba-PDC uses ldap as passdb. winbind isn't used. WINS server is running in W2K PDC server. Also created a machine account entry to LDAP base, set samba I flag. Here we go (using mmc @ w2k PDC): I add my samba domain to "Domains trusted by
