We want to build a Debian's unstable samba 3.0.0beta2-1 as PDC with plenty of Windows 2K clients. Joining the domain, Domain Logons, Roaming Profiles, Domain Groups, are Ok. As we thought that Samba 3 cannot handle Win2K's GPOs (isn't it?), we tried NT4 style Group Policies to restrict a bit users posibilities (as we have students as users). Our opinion is that Mandatory Profiles

Hello, I'm using Samba 3.0.0rc2-Debian on Debian unstable. At the time being it does everything I want it to except one: I'm in the wrong workgroup. Despite the line workgroup = BETASIG in my smb.conf, I show up in the workgroup "WORKGROUP." There is no mention of "workgroup" or "WORKGROUP" anywhere else in my smb.conf other than this. Would be happy

Hi ! I'm in trouble... I'm in the way of building a FreeBSD Samba server with LDAP support. So far, everything works great except password synchronization. It is the only thing I need left to do before my server goes into production, so I'm really looking for help. What I need is to be able to synchronize the Windows passwords with the Unix passwords. All passwords are stored in

How do you add an "Administrator" account to ldap. I want to leave root in /etc/passwd but have "Administrator" in ldap I have checked Howto Collection and the Samba-Ldap-3 but they contain no information. The Ldap-Howto has a suggestion but then says not to use. Godfrey

I am facing some problem with samba 3.4.8 PAM pam_smbpass module, both vsftpd,proftpd are not working ..I have opened thread at http://forums.proftpd.org/smf/index.php/topic,4739.0.html it is working fine with samba 3.0.32 I want to see the _log_err messages from pam_smbpass , for that I have added log level=4 and log file= /tmp/samba/sambalog.log. I did not see any of the messages in

Hi! I installed samba 3.0.4 on solaris9/sparc, with support to pam_smbpass, but when I configure pam.conf, and try alter system password, appears "permission denied" and in /var/adm/messages appears "cannot access samba password database", I tried compile separated the pam_smbpass (downloaded from samba.org), and the error remain. Any ideas??? Thanks

Hello list I'm trying to do the make command to compile the pam_smbpass.so make CONFIGOPTS="--with-fhs --with-privatedir=/etc --with-configdir=/etc/samba" But every time I get the following message: patching file Makefile.in patching file configure.in ./patch-source.sh: autoconf: command not found make: *** [patch-stamp] Error 127 What's wrong ?

I've just built samba debs from 2_2 head. looks like all is cool except pam_smbpass.so Jul 25 17:44:42 bitc passwd[18770]: PAM unable to dlopen(/lib/security/pam_smbpass.so) Jul 25 17:44:42 bitc passwd[18770]: PAM [dlerror: /lib/security/pam_smbpass.so: undefined symbol: ldap_value_free] Jul 25 17:44:42 bitc passwd[18770]: PAM adding faulty module: /lib/security/pam_smbpass.so ldd

Hello all!! Something strange is happening recently with pam_smbpass.so. I get the errors: passwd: PAM unable to dlopen(pam_smbpass.so) passwd: PAM [dlerror: pam_smbpass.so: undefined symbol: ldap_value_free] passwd: PAM adding faulty module: pam_smbpass.so And the passwd command returns "Module unknown". The rest of Samba is working fine as a PDC - can log in, out, copy files, etc.

Here is where it bombs out, feel free to ask for more info. It has done this to me on two separate 11i machines, using HP's ANSIc compiler: Make: Don't know how to make bin/pam_smbpass.so. Stop. ...nothing relavent to pam_smbpass before there. This is the only clue I've found thus far (in config.log): configure:2513: checking for security/_pam_macros.h configure:2523: cc -E -Ae

I read this on the list awhile back -- am I mistaken: I thought that "passwd" did not accept the migrate command without a patch to smbpasswd... I can't remember exactly where I read that... can someone confirm or deny this? Was the patch mainstreamed? ---- _ _ _ _ ___ _ _ _ |Y#| | | |\/| | \ |\ | | | Ryan Novosielski - Jr. UNIX Systems Admin |$&| |__| | | |__/ | \| _|

I am using the pam_smbpass module, and I apologize if this is somewhat of a PAM problem, but the HP-UX PAM implementation leaves a lot to be desired so the docs are not always that helpful to me. When using pam_smbpass after an smbpasswd, I get two password changed lines, presumably because when smbpasswd uses PAM, it then re-calls the pam_smbpass module. Therefore, in addition to getting double

I am running samba 2.2.8a with the pam_smbpass included in it (running on Sparc Solaris 2.8). When I run passwd as root, the unix password and smbpasswd passwords are both changed successfully. However, if I do this as a regular user I get a core dump as follows: $ passwd passwd: Changing password for mprewitt Enter existing login password: New Password: Re-enter new Password: Bus Error

Hi, I'd like to setup the system so when I change my shell password it will automaticaly change the Samba password. If I use unencrypted password the configuration bellow works perfect but when I switched to encrypted password it stopped working. Now passwd command changes my shell passwd but to be able to login in samba I have to switch back to encrypted password = no and then use the

I think pam_smbpass it is not initializing all the parameters from smb.conf. This exhibits itself as "Cannot access samba password database" messages in the syslog. I ran my test code using "truss" and there are some interesting open() calls: --------------------------------------------------------------------- 20247: open64("/secrets.tdb", O_RDWR|O_CREAT, 0600)

Hi! I'm configuring Samba for Unix<->Samba account synchronization and have come across a situation which I like, but cannot explain with absolute certainty, and am therefore worried about security. I have set the following: (Debian uses a bit different structure, but I have expanded @includes in this email) 1) Samba -> Unix password sync /etc/samba/smb.conf: unix

I'm trying to sync the local unix account passwords to the samba smbpass db using pam. When i run passwd, after it's done it seg faults and produces a core dump. The odd thing is that it works, the users local unix password gets synced to the smbpass db, but it seg faults. Below are my relevant config files. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong? /usr/local/etc/smb.conf security =

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/1257186 This bug has a long history since 4.1.6 and I can confirm with 4.2.1 I've isolated to the line: auth optional pam_smbpass.so migrate Configured in /etc/pam.d/common-auth That line is added by libpam-smbpass package installation and also by using pam-auth-update to enable SMB Password Synchronization For 4.2.1

Hi Simon, I never played with Samba in the way you are playing with. Anyway your issue seems to be very located to pam_smbpass.so or its usage. Bug from software or admin mistake? As said, I have no idea but perhaps if you post Samba version, pam version, smb.conf perhaps too... anything to be more specific about what is really your installation. This could help those who have played with that

Okay - I've got samba working as a PDC with and ldap backend. I want to have some users not be in ldap (like the built in stuff like cyrus, mail, lp etc) I can get that to work with the pam_ldap and pam_unix but pam_smbpass doesn't seem to return user_unknown as i expect for users who are not in the ldap database does this make sense? --- pam_smb_passwd.c 12 Feb 2002 15:56:19
