similar to: Windows 2K EFS interface in Samba?

We are currently running Samba in a security=share mode, I would like to switch this to have samba be a PDC and use domain authentication. Anyone out there combined the following successfully? Linux Redhat 7.x NIS master and PDC, using NIS as authentication for PDC/Windows? I have seen several things on just having an samba PDC but I would like to keep using our NIS as it's used for many

I'm new to the list, so at the begining I'd like to say Hello to all of You. I'm using Samba 2.2.3a and rather cannot upgrade it to new version. I want to set up sambafax (http://www.purpel3.com/sambafax/ ) tool to allow my windows users to send fax. Actually my smb.conf looks like this: security = share guest ok = true guest account = test [printers] comment = All Printers path =

I keep hoping for better wasy to remotely manage windows machines through samba. In the very old samba-tng there was an rpcclient that could connect to a remote machine and do various things like read/write the registry, grab event logs, etc. I could never get it to work very well and waited for a better one. The trouble is the rpcclient program in samba-current doesn't have these features.

After googling a bit, it seems that only way samba playes with active directory is with samba 3.x I'f been use samba 2.x with 'pass through' authentication and would like to get rid of the pass through auth cause it seems to cause problems. Yet, I don't know if I can trust samba 3 -- Has anyone been able to get a samba 2.x server to join a an Active Directory domain? My

hallo list, samba 2.x + SuSE 7.3 working as PDC in NT/W2K-Network: in the smbpasswd the account flags are set to U, DU, W. But a few accounts have an added X like UX or DUX. The man page describes only flags D, U, W and N. what does the X mean or can it be deleted. Anybody else with this appearance, Marco Lechner

I need to allow [read] access to a Samba server using both IP filtering & UserIDs . For a given list of IP subnets, any user should have access. Outside these 'trusted' subnets, I need to do User authentication. I can handle the User authentication OK in several ways. However, I don't see any way to do the 'short circuit' allow for some IPs, then use User authentication

I am sorry if this has been covered before, my searches have found variations in results. I am using a Redhat 9 build with the Samba 2.2.7a RPM from Redhat. I am planning to move all of the services from this machine to another Redhat 9 machine. It will take the IP address and hostname of the original machine. What I need to make sure is if I simply backup the files in /etc/samba (smb.conf,

I suggest to add this line also to samba-pdc help. But still I ran into problems. I fixed the passdb lines on PDC and BDC. If the second server (on PDC slave-ldap and on BDC

Hi All, I would like to know if this is possible and if possible what is the complexity. Consider a CIFS client, SAMBA Server1 and Samba Server2. Say a session is established between a CIFS client and SAMBA server1. Is it possible for the SAMBA server1 to transfer/redirect/reestablish the connection to SAMBA server2 without the CIFS client knowing about this? The session between the CIFS

Hello, Looking to use Windows to encrypt contents redirected to folders on a member server. It looks like I will need to designate the remote server as trusted for delegation. Is this currently supported by Samba 4.3.x? I plan to follow these two documents to achieve this. Thanks. https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc757963%28v=ws.10%29.aspx

Hi all, to raise the bug vs success ratio i'd like to express my gratitude to all samba members and those who, though not in-core developers, generously supported noobs like me on this mail list. I've set up an environment two months ago and it has run without glitches or tweaks since then. Now as misusing my family as beta testers has worked out so nicely i will deploy an identical

I have a single AD domain with 4 domain controllers (win2k-not native mode). I want all users to login to AD (clients from 98 to XP - no linux clients yet). This is a school network with 4 campuses connected by wireless links (hence the 4 domain controllers) and I would like to put a samba server at each location for student home directories (basically a NAS setup to start with). There will

Hi, I am running Samba version 2.2.5 with utmp turned on. I have a problem with utmp and not displaying who is currently logged in. The basic idea is that even though a user has logged off the computer (win2k pro) a connection to IPC$ remains. It gives this.

Hi, I want to ask you, if you release an RPM package for samba 2.2.2 for Redhat 6.2 too, and not only for version 7.1 Thanks a lot Tomas Zeman

I am running several samba servers (2.2.3a and 2.2.7) in various places as pdcs. Everything seems to be running smoothly, but I can't find any way of restricting access to only those uses who have logged on to the domain. Is this possible? ie at the moment, any user can map a drive to \\server\share, put in a valid user/password pair and have access to that share without going through any

I can get authentication to work on linux 7.1 with samba 3.0alpha15 if I make valid users = @"INS+Domain Users", but if I try to set valid users to just a single user: valid users = INS+DavidSha, it fails to give me access. I see the following in log.winbindd. It looks like it is looking for a domain called DavidSha?!? My winbindd separator is +. Can somebody please respond to this.

Hi I've searched the archives but did not spot this particular issue there. Config. RH8, Samba 3.0.2a. Auth via smbpasswd. I have a small office network where one of the accounts has had there password expire and resetting the password just went round in loops. I've tried removing the password synching from smb.conf and removing the user from smbpasswd and re-creating their account
