Hi people, As usual I've tried a number of different approaches to this problem and can't figure it out. I don't have enough knowledge. Every time I do net rpc vampire I get this crap spewed at me: Use of uninitialized value in substitution (s///) at /usr/share/perl5/smbldap_tools.pm line 106, <CONFIGFILE> line 233. Use of uninitialized value in substitution (s///) at

dear list, I'm trying to migrate nt4 to samba3, and have two issues at the moment. First is: I'm getting two (small?) errors using smbldap-populate on my ldap database. At first I tried ignoring this, but now also rpc net vampire complains. (maybe because of this..?) This is the output of smbldap-populate: <quote> server:/usr/local/sbin # smbldap-populate Using builtin directory

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

Hi All, Is it possible to vampire across dots in usernames? I got over 1000 accounts with dots in them eg. <firstname>.<lastname> The smbldap-tools (version 0.8.2) don't seem to like adding users and groups with dots in them. Any help much appreciated. Darren

Hi All, Hope someone here can help me ? *See end for background and system information... I'm looking for advice or links to clear documentation on the use and configuration of "net vampire" and it's ability to download PDC accounts with passwords intact.

Folks, Over the past few weeks the Samba-HOWTO-Collection and the Samba-Guide have been significantly updated. Over the next 48 hours I hope to complete this process. Today I have added a new chapter to the Samba-3 by Example book (the Samba-Guide). within 24 hours all mirror site should be hosting the current update. I would very much appreciate review of the new chapter 8 and the

Hi, by using IDEALX scripts (smbldap-tools-0.9.2) this is what i've find. in my smb.conf file i've put those lines : add user script = /usr/local/sbin/smbldap-useradd -a -m "%u" delete user script = /usr/local/sbin/smbldap-userdel "%u" add group script = /usr/local/sbin/smbldap-groupadd -p "%g" delete group script =

Well I finally managed to get my machines added to my ldap/samba domain. The problem was that I had defined an ou each for Computers and Users. ie dc=base,dc=org | ------ ou = Users | ------ ou = Computers Now the problem was that the nss_ldap library was searching in Users only, and apparently the samba server needs to be able to resolve the Computers tree aswell to add the

Hi All, It seems like Samba 3 does require the PDC to use LDAP for nss when using ldapsam. I reconfigured Solaris 9 to use nss_ldap and 'getent group' now shows the posixGroups created by the 'net rpc vampire' operation. I then cleaned up the LDAP database and ran vampire again. Each group is created successfully with incrementing gidNumber 10000 onward. 'net groupmap

Hi. When I tried to setup my LDAP I used the smbldap-tools from idealx. I discovered some errors which made the tools unusable for me. Here's a fix for the bugs I discovered: a) I decided to use a suffix in the LDAP which contains spaces, ie. I used something like "o=My Org,c=DE". Because the suffix wasn't quoted in the various calls in the tools, this didn't work. b) It

I am trying to merge our addressbook, courier-imap, postfix, and samba PDC entries into a single ldap directory. I have vampired all the data from our current PDC to use for testing and it seems that everything is merged and works. I am writing the docs and I have, for the first time, tried to run smbldap-useradd for a user who is both a posix user and windows user. I got an error that the next

Hello Samba People, it is my first letter to Samba ML, so first of all - thanks Samba team for a great SW. Now the question: I want to migrate from Win2003 AD to Samba 3.3.2. I want to use net vampire feature to import all account information (is there any other way to do it?). Net vampire works partly - in the direct meaning of this word - it is importing only 131 objects. How come? Full

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 all For several days I've been doing tests for our upcoming migration from an NT domain to Samba PDC with ldapsam. We have ~200 clients, mostly NT4 and some Win2k. We want all of our users eventually switch from Windows to KDE on Linux with thin clients through NX :-) I managed to net rpc vampire all user and machine accounts into LDAP, but then I realized some problems: - The
