similar to: samba passwords gone haywire since upgrade (3.0.0-1)

We have been running Samba 2.2.x for some time without problems. Servers are Solaris 2.7 and RH Linux. Clients are a mix of WinNTsp4 and Win2K. Server setting is for plaintext (un-encryted passwords). On upgrading the Samba server to 3.0.0, (smb.conf file unchanged): All WinNt clients fail to authenticare. Win2k clients authenticate correctly. On reverting back to Samba 2.2.x, all cleints

Hi, I'm trying to put my samba to authenticate users into a mysql database. I've started to use passdb and I did mapped the main fields and also did some change at pdb_sql.c code to match my needs. Well, the problem is that I can't found a way to use crypt passwords with mysql using pdb_mysql, actually the type of passwords I'm allowed to use are "plain password",

Hi, Right after I run "vampire" (net rpc vampire -S gia42c-1 -U Administrator) command, samba would no longer start. The samba server was installed on Gentoo linux and running behind a firewall. The PDC which is Windows NT 4 server is on different subnet with no firewall. Please check the log and smb.conf below and see if there's anything I can do to make "samba"

I know it is a moderated list - just do not know how to get to the moderator. Was just reinstalling suse 9.1 on top of an existing 9.1 (with samba) (it solved another issue with the monitor but created a samba problem) applied all patches reinstallation remembered all settings correctly, even the smb.conf file, but smbd does not start anymore. , I get a

Hi, After a successful upgrade from samba3alpha19 to samba3.0.1pre1 I am now doing the group mapping stage. The problem I am having is modifying a group in the LDAP directory. I am using net groupmap modify ntgroup=staff unixgroup=staff type=domain. The error it is coming up with is [2003/10/29 17:21:39, 2] passdb/pdb_ldap.c:ldapsam_search_one_group(1615) ldapsam_search_one_group: searching

Greetings, Here is what I have built samba on: Solaris 9 GCC 3.2.2 samba-3.0.20pre1 openldap-2.2.24 MIT Kerberos 1.4 Samba built with: ./configure --prefix=/opt/local/samba --with-automount --with-profile --with-acl-support --with-utmp --with-winbind --with-ads --with-ldap --with-krb5=/opt/local/kerberos5 --with-pam Within a minute of starting samba + winbind I get a core dump in the samba

Gemes, others, Ok, I went back and compiled without ldapsam_compat. I am now trying to simply use ldapsam. However, I get this error in the log.smbd when trying to connect with a client: [2004/12/23 12:59:18, 0] passdb/pdb_interface.c:make_pdb_methods_name(664) No builtin nor plugin backend for ldapsam found [2004/12/23 12:59:18, 1] passdb/pdb_interface.c:make_pdb_context_list(765)

Hi everyone! I have (i think) a fully functional tls enabled samba ldap server. I used the documenation on www.idealx.org. I can make users and computers with smbldap-tools but i can't add Windows computers to the domain in the client end. smbldap-useradd -w w-eddie ldapsearch -x generates among other things: # w-eddie$, Computers, dbb.su.se dn:

Samba Ldap experts, I am trying to recompile samba to support ldap. After compiling samba with --with-ldapsam, I had no errors with configure or compilation. However, after starting up smbd and nmbd, I get these errors in the log.smbd file when I try to connect to the server: [2004/12/20 13:57:02, 0] lib/debug.c:reopen_logs(590) Unable to open new log file /var/log/samba/smbd.log: No

Greetings All, I am trying to use MySQL4 as the backend for authentication through Samba 3.0.0. When I finally got it to compile ok (damn that mysql/mysql.h) I cannot get it to work. Below you'll find the log transcript from when I try to connect with any client -- smbclient in this case. And yes, I have the MySQL-part setup correctly using the example mysql.dump from the dist and the user

I installed samba 3.0.0 beta3 on FreeBSD 5.0 alpha RELEASE, with ./configure --with-ldapsam --with-quotas --prefix=/usr/local/ldapsamba, the smbd log told me this: 2003/08/07 07:37:29, 0] lib/module.c:smb_load_module(40) Error loading module '/usr/local/ldapsamba/lib/pdb/ldapsam.so': Cannot open "/usr/local/ldapsamba/lib/pdb/ldapsam.so" [2003/08/07 07:37:29, 0]

Dear Sirs, I did the following command (against ldapsam backend): net groupmap add rid=3002 unixgroup=wheel type=local ntgroup=Marketoids comment=Mm -d 10 I just wanted to add new group. But instead of that I saw many-many-many records: lib/smbldap.c:smbldap_search(963) passdb/pdb_ldap.c:ldapsam_getgroup(2008) they all wanted to find group with gidNumber=4294967295, yes, sure, there's

I'm trying to start smbd (samba 3.0.22) as daemon (smbd -D --configfile=/etc/smb.conf) on solaris 9 sparc with current recommended patches but the smbd process never returns from trying to become a daemon. Samba was built with ldap, (heimdal) kerberos and active directory support using gcc 3.3.2 from sunfreeware. Solaris 9 is a new install on a development machine with production patches.

Hi, I'm trying to use LDAP as my passdb backend, but having no luck, seemingly because the LDAP code doesn't load, even though I have compiled in LDAP support. I am getting the following error: [2004/07/13 07:58:29, 2] passdb/pdb_interface.c:make_pdb_methods_name(654) No builtin backend found, trying to load plugin [2004/07/13 07:58:29, 3] lib/module.c:do_smb_load_module(46) Error

The solution is quite simple: You need to configure pam-nss for samba to work. Essentially samba is using a 'getent' call to look up computers independent is configured as passdb backend. That means the pam-nss must be configured for samba to find the computer entries in ldap. I find this very much counter-intuitive ! Thanks to Tom Crummey <tom@ee.ucl.ac.uk> and John Drescher

I'm attemtping to configure a Ubuntu server for a bunch of windows clients. I'd like the authentication information to be in ldap.So far the stuff works, I can authenticate users in LDAP just fine.

Hi, based on Bart Lagerweij's ( www.nu2.nu ) bootdisk, I've created a small DOS system that users can start by booting from network ( PXE ). The system is configured to map a network drive from a Suse 9.0 Pro / Samba server with various tools on it. The connection is anonymous. Until recently everything worked fine but suddenly there are strange errors: When I try to launch an EXE from
