I'm testing Samba 2.2.5 with winbind. I can successfully authenticate domain users who do and don't have corresponding UNIX accounts as well as domain users who do have a UNIX account. Files created from PC side by usera show up in UNIX "ls -l" as owned by usera so I thought the automatic username mapping was working correctly, but I found out that usera isn't being

i had my file server setup with suse 10.1, and i did a clean upgrade to suse 10.2 (if it matters much), now trying to setup samba again, i have run into a slight problem. on my windows machines, i can access the home directories of the users, however when i try and get into directories i setup myself (in my case 'netshare'), it says that the directory is not accessible. check permissions

Hi, I compiled openssh 2.1.1p1 on Irix 6.2 with MIPS 7.2.1.2m compiler. All works fine except the yppasswd command from Irix (it's no NIS-problem, same with rlogin works): Logged in with 'ssh machine -l user1' # who user1 ttyq0 Jun 19 15:17 (xxxxx.iwr.uni-heidelberg.de) # ypcat passwd |grep user1 user1:xxxxxxxxxxxxx:1535:1500:User1:/usr/people/user1:/bin/tcsh # ypcat passwd |grep

Can anyone help me to figure out why I can not write to a share? I was able to join the domain without a problem, and I can read the share from an xp box. I just cannot write to it: "Access denied". thanks specs: FC5 samba-common-3.0.23c-1.fc5 samba-3.0.23c-1.fc5 smb.conf: [global] name resolve order = host disable netbios = yes workgroup = DOMAIN realm = DOMAIN.COM

Have you tried in smb.conf username map = /usr/local/samba/lib/domainuser.map winbind use default domain = no For every user you have to create an entry in the /usr/local/samba/lib/domainuser.map, that looks like <unixusername> = "<domainname>+<username>" I?m using a script that generates the domainuser.map automaticly, because our users are using NIS

I was troubleshooting a problem we were having with some files not rsyncing properly over an nfs mount (the destination device is a snapserver (NAS) that did not have native ability to receive streaming rsync info, that's why we were doing this rsync over an NFS connection to the snapserver). Anyway, at first I thought this was just one of the quirks of the snapserver (it isn't

corresponding UNIX user (or dummy entry in the password file) for each NT user who you want to authenticate, otherwise they can't get on unless you have set up "guest ok =yes" and defined a username for "guest" to connect as . This works for us, my NT karen account gets matched to my Unix Karen account, new files I create from the PC side get assigned the correct Unix UID,

corresponding UNIX user (or dummy entry in the password file) for each NT user who you want to authenticate. This works for us, my NT karen account gets matched to my Unix Karen account, new files I create from the PC side get assigned the correct Unix UID, my login directory is shared via [HOMES] correctly, etc as long as I don't run winbindd. However, when I turn on winbindd, the NT

Hi, I have a share that worked fine in samba 2.2.8a, users were able to read and write to the share, and edit files. After migrating to 3.0.23a, users are no longer able to edit existing files.

I am running Fedora 11 and trying to set up Samba. I've succeeded in setting up the network printer. I am able to go only to this stage: Place--> Network--> Windows Network Do you have any suggestion? Here is what I get when I do troubleshoot. I get the message in the tile when I do: $ smbclient -L 192.168.0.144 Enter smarty's password: session setup failed:

Background: I'm trying to make sure my Unix and NT users are being assigned the correct UID from both platforms so they own files correctly from both sides. I was hoping to avoid username maps since our users with cross platform access already have matching usernames on both sides (or will when we reconfigure). I've been playing with several parameters, and fixed some things, but I did

I've built samba by hand before , but I've never seen this message, perhaps you can shed some light. I suddenly can't get past the ./configure script. ./configure --prefix=/usr/samba --with-winbind --with-automount gives me the following error: checking for conflicting AUTH_ERROR define in rpc/rpc.h ... no checking for test routines ... configure: error: can't find

1. What version of samba? You should be trying 2.2.5 or 2.2 6 for one of the more stable winbind releases. 2. Are you running NIS? Try changing the winbind separator to _ (underscore) 3.. Did you put winbind in your nsswitch.conf file? If so, did you force the system to re-read that info (happens automatically on solaris, must run nsadmin restart on Irix, don't know about other

Hi folks, we have a lan with win and linux clients (pcs work alternating between win and linux-ubuntu, server is sarge). Authentication in linux works with nis. Therefore I substituted passwd by yppasswd. How can y realize password changes in win to get the linux (yp) and the samba password changed in one step? By the way: do I have to substitute passwd by yppasswd on the server too? Thanks

Samba Developers-- I have a share called pub. In that share, there is a folder that I want to block access to. So, I chmoded it 0700 and chowned it root. In my smb.conf file, I set the "guest account" parameter to "netshare", an unprivialized user. I also set the "guest only" parameter to "yes" No remote computer can "cd" into the directory,

Server: Slakware Linux 2.0.30, GNU C 2.7.2.1 Samba 18p7 Server is not using PAM and is a ypclient. Client PC's are DOS 6.20 with MS Client 3.0 and Windows 95. I am having trouble changing passwords using the "net password \\<server>" command from either DOS or Win95 command prompt. Changing passwords worked fine using Samba 17p3. The compile switch -DALLOW_CHANGE_PASSWORD

Hi. I have for a while been trying to get my samba 2.2.1a PDC to be a NIS master and still maintain the password sync feature, without any luck. Now I made something that seems to work - but I would like to get your input to see if what I do is ok or it is something I should'nt do. 1: Samba uses passwd to sync the password (not yppasswd) 2: cron runs make in /var/yp every 15 minutes to

I am new to R. I want to graph group data using a "Traditional Bar Chart with Standard Error Bar", like the kind shown here: http://samiam.colorado.edu/~mcclella/ftep/twoGroups/twoGroupGraphs.html Is there a simple way to do this? So far, I have only figured out how to plot the bars using barplot. testdata <- scan(, list(group=0,xbar=0,se=0)) 400 0.36038 0.02154 200 0.35927

Good time of a day. I have a problem with samba 3.0.2suse and dos file attributes. Users (winxp,2k,98) cannot change ReadOnly file attrib on files that don't belong to them. Example: user1 in group main create file test, he can change file attr or date/time, but user2 from the same group main can not. Sorry for my bad english. Here is my smb.conf: [global] dos charset = CP866 unix
