similar to: Samba 3 as PDC with LDAP as passwd backend

Hello, I have problem with idmap configuration. I would like to use LDAP as backend for idmap in Samba+ADS environment, but i have following errors in log.winbindd-idmap: [2011/06/08 16:57:54.805575,? 0] winbindd/idmap.c:201(smb_register_idmap_alloc)????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? idmap_alloc module ldap already

Hi guys, I had a look in the sources about this problem. the problem seems to be the ldap_escape function that is called from ldap_verify_plain_auth_bind_userdn(..) I dont really know if this escaping is needed at this point, but with this change it works for me. No other problems discovered so far. could somebody, who is deeper in the sources give me a hint if this will make some troubles?

I cannot join my WinXP workstation computers to the Samba domain. Using the Computer Name / Change on the XP computer gives me an error saying that the username or password is incorrect - except very occasionally when it works although I do nothing different! I have noticed that on when it works there is a machine record set up in LDAP with Samba data as follows:- dn:

Hi all, I am trying to set up a samba server with samba3-final (I've got a PDC with samba-2.2.8 + ldap and it works great, now I would like to migrate).

Hello, I'm lloking for a way to convert my company's existing samba2.2 ldap backed service to samba 3.0. What's particulary making me curious is the sambaSID. As I've read it is the unique identifier of a PDC in the windows world. So, how does samba3 generate this? Is it supposed to be changed by the admin or is it determined by samba on the first startup? Any pointer to a doc

Hello experts, I've migrated our NT4 domain to sambe 3.0.20b/ldap backend with "net rpc vampire", and nearly everything works as expected. But one big problem remains: it's not possible to login to the domains member maschines now, because "the domain is not available at the moment" (translated from german). After the maschine rejoined the samba domain, login

Hi, I've migrated from an old samba installation (Samba as PDC) that used TDB backend for password. I've setup a box with ubuntu and samba 3 + ldap and I imported the old users. Old users works fine. I have problems with new users and machines. Old users works but they don't show up with smbldap-usershow command and I've problem in changing their passwords. If I check the ldap

I have Samba 3.4.11 + OpenLDAP (slapd 2.4.11) as domain controller for small windows network. Everything works (almost) ok, but sometimes clients report delays with access on shares on primary domain controller (PDC) and sometimes I had problems with adding new computers to domain. In /var/log/message I found these errors: Feb 15 10:38:11 pdc winbindd[14772]: [2011/02/15 10:38:11, 0]

I see that samba4 will have it's own LDAP database. How will the support for OpenLDAP be? if anyone knows. Will I have the option to use OpenLDAP still for all the new features so as to be able to use current apps that use OpenLDAP already? If anyone has info regarding this, it would be appreciated. Thanks. Caleb O'Connell

I'm trying to migrate my existing RedHat ES Samba PDC to Ubuntu. The RedHat version of Samba is 3.0.9 and the Ubuntu version is 3.0.14a. Everything was going fine until I tried to import the LDIF of the existing LDAP directory. The LDIF actually imports all of the structure (OU and Group definitions) and all of my users, but it fails when it comes to my first machine account with this

did someone already try vampire with the 3.2.x-release? since i upgraded from 3.0.x i get problems with the creation of machine accounts. when i start sucking a pdc in my ldapserver the following errors come up with every machineaccount on the pdc: 1.)

Hello, Im stumped - never had this problem before (just setting up a development server so I can properly document all the steps I took to get a samba pdc working before). Everything else works but joining the domain. Its a Solaris 9/Sun ONE ldap/Samba 3.0.14a PDC. I have no problems with accessing file shares, and all the idealx scripts appear to be working fine (in fact - nice job to the

Hi, At our campus we have ~40 machines. If a new program is needed we install it on a single machine and replicate this one to the others. The whole process is automated: (Wake-On-LAN) (with pxe) booting a kernel via grub. booting a minimal ram based linux and doing: netcat server port > /dev/hda If we send a WOL packet the restore process starts. The problem is that we have to rejoin each

In the planning process for migrating from NT4 PDC, and external ldap directory to samba 3.2.8 PDC. The external existing openldap directory is used currently to support the local uid mapping for the Linux logins and samba file servers that are members of the current NT4 PDC. While looking at the existing openldap UIDs and GIDs in use and what the samba PDC wants to use I see some uid/gid

A couple of days ago I decided that I needed a samba and ldap setup. After reading the samba mailing list , specifically the thread "Re: [Samba] Samba and LDAP backend - howto docs problems?" I decided to buy the Official Samba-3 HowTo and Reference guide", (the Samba-3 By Example mentioned in that thread wasn't available in my bookstore and they could't order it for me too)

Hello, Hopefully I'm in the right place asking for help :-) I need to move from an old physical Suse 8.2 - samba 2.2.7 + ldap - to latest samba versions, I would like to use an ubuntu 8.04 virtual machine. The domain is in production on the physical server, to be dismissed after migration. It is also the file server!!! so /DATA/ has all shared and permission driven file access.. I was

However, I don't completely understand why. I used samba log level 3 to diagonose the

First some information on the system set up. OS: CentOS 4.3 Samba 3.0.10 FDS 7.1 Samba is acting as a PDC for our network. We have both windows 2000 and windows XP client machines. They are all joined to our domain. Everything "seems" to be fine except that when a user logs into a machine they can not make even simple changes to setting such as folder options (ie. view file extensions).
