Hi all, anyone able to point out why I'm not able to get samba 3.0.0 to update my LDAP server with any idmap data? I'm using SunOne DS 5.2 LDAP server and the following entries in my smb.conf file, ldap admin dn = "uid=admin,ou=Administrators,ou=TopologyManagement,o=NetscapeRoot" ldap ssl = off ; ldap suffix = "dc=testlan,dc=bbc,dc=co,dc=uk" ** have tried with this

As Samba 3.x does not work with the Kerberos included with Solaris (it has no headers) I have to remove it and replace it with MIT kerberos. Does anyone know if Solaris kerberised services will still work normally (without modification) such as kerberised NFS? I briefly tested this and couldn't het it to work, but if someone has a definative answer it might save me a lot of trouble, thanks

Hi list, I'm trying to compile samba 3.0.1 rc1 with --enable-dmalloc switch because I have been asked to provide more information on a winbindd panic on a Solaris server. However the configure fails with the error shown below, config.status: creating include/config.h Note: The dmalloc debug library will be included. To turn it on use ./configure: command substitution: line 3: syntax error:

I can't say I've tested this in any depth. Where multiple LDAP servers are listed as the LDAP backend is the behaviour of Samba that if it fails to contact the first listed server it will try the second and so on? If that's the case Samba should only ever try and update the password on a single LDAP server which would then replicate the change to any other master and slave LDAP servers

Can anyone tell me if I can configure Samba 3.x to rely only on Kerberos authentication (in an AD domain)? Ideally I'd like to use local UNIX accounts, not winbind, and negate the need for me to add an entry to passdb, then the account must exist in AD and locally on each Samba member server for authentication to work. If there is any info held in passdb, other than the NTLM coded password,

I also need to get centralised mapping configured if I am to deploy Samba, although we're planning to deploy an LDAP server also so this isn't an additional overhead for me. Two comments, to avoid the additional overhead of implementing a seperate LDAP infrastructure could future versions of Samba support storing the idmap mapping date in Active Directory? When using idmap = ldap in the

ok I know this isn't realy a samba issue but I'm trying to gather some debug info on winbindd for the samba development guys, but I can't compile gdb 5.x or 6.0 on my solaris 9 box! Every other compile problem I've come across I've resolved by searching through google but not this time. If anyone can help I'd realy appreciate it, problem is (using gcc 3.3.2) gcc -g -O2

This was blocked with both good and bad log output due to the size limit on attachments so I've removed the log from the successfull authentication. I think its pretty obvious whats going on from the failed log, thanks Andy. -----Original Message----- From: ww m-pubsyssamba Sent: 06 May 2004 10:32 To: 'Jeremy Allison'; 'samba@lists.samba.org' Subject: RE: [Samba] Kerberos

Hi List, I'm having an issue between Samba and OS X with regards to Kerberos authentication to a Samba AD member server. I'm using local UNIX accounts and entries in the passdb instead of Windind on the samba server, ie create account by adding to /etc/passwd then smbpasswd -a username. From an OS X client system if I obtain a ticket for user "UserA" like kinit

Hi All, can anyone make any sense of the error below, please advise if I need to log this as a bug but I'm not sure how to further diagnose what is happening. This is from my winbindd log file, thanks Andy. [2003/11/07 17:47:59, 1] nsswitch/winbindd.c:main(832) winbindd version 3.0.0 started. Copyright The Samba Team 2000-2003 [2003/11/07 17:48:00, 1]

Any reason why using 2 ldapsam backend? ## Speaking for myself, It's not good to have a single point of failure in ## your authentication

Hi All, I have a concern with the behaviour of winbindd on startup in a multi-domain environment, in my case a 6 domain AD forest + trusts to 3 NT 4 domains. I've tested startup of winbindd in a 2 domain development environment and found if a trusted domain is not contactable it takes five minutes to timeout before winbindd becomes active (/tmp/.winbindd/pipe is created). If I assume this

Hi List, I'm having trouble understanding the behaviour of ACL support in Samba 3.0.3pre1 running on Solaris. Here are my problems the unix standard attributes for other seem to map to Everyone when viewing a share from a Windows client, however assigning rwx to other/Everyone does not grant access to folders for users connceted to the share, why not? I cannot work out how to change the

Hi list, I'm having difficulty joining new Samba 3.0.x machines to our production domain. I'm trying to join using net ads join -U Administrator but it just hangs. It does create a computer object in the AD though, if you Control C the hung net join and try and start winbind, winbind complains with this error "ads_connect from domain DOMAIN failed: Cannot read password" I

Turned out the whole install was broken when not using winbind, don't know why!?! Uninstalled Samba 3.0.1, re-compiled from scratch Samba 3.0.2a and everything works as expected :-) >> Further to this problem I have found it impossible to get any syntax to succesfully mount a Samba 3.0.2 share with Kerberos authentication using the BSD "mount_smbfs" (on Mac OS X), where

Hi All, anyone else found that adding a Samba server to an AD domain appears to be incompatible with using an AD Kerberos realm to provide other Kerberised services such as NFS from the same UNIX host? Problem I have is that when you join an AD domain thorough Samba 3.x net command this creates a computer account in the AD to which the administrator does not know the account password. If you

I've seen this posting before but I need to get a grasp on this. I am using winbindd for users that don't have a local account on a Linux box. I thought that placing the entries below in the smb.conf would create users in ou=Idmap. Instead the ou=Idmap increments the uidNumber with every user that is added,but the user ID mappings are stored in /usr/local/var/locks/winbindd_idmap.tdb. What

Hi list, If I have multiple Samba member servers in a domain can I store the groupmap data in LDAP? When I try this I get this error # net groupmap add ntgroup=Everyone unixgroup=nobody No rid or sid specified, choosing algorithmic mapping adding entry for group nobody failed! But this works correctly (creates account in LDAP server) smbpasswd -a username password the LDAP config in my

Hi Samba developer people, I still have a problem were winbindd panics every time I run it. I'd hoped this might get fixed as newer releases of Samba came out, but I'm now running 3.0.2pre1 and still the same problem. I want to deploy Samba on Solaris, but was unable to successfully get samba to compile with dmalloc support, so I've had to install onto RedHat 8 and use valgrind

Hi All, I'm having a strange pronlem with winbind. For users it seems to be working fine but for groups its not enumerating most of the groups! A getent group produces only 325 lines of domain groups whereas wbinfo -g produces 2839 lines of groups. I'm not seeing any errors logged and all commands are exiting with status 0. Winbind related sections of smb.conf are shown below,
