similar to: samba 3 LDAP/PDC problem - adding WXP account

Hello all, I'm having an issue with adding machine accounts to a Samba 3.0.0 PDC with an LDAP passwd db backend. This is on a RedHat 9 with an rpm I compiled from the 3.0.0 release. I have configured samba to where it is using LDAP and able to add user accounts and group mappings to LDAP, but when I try to add a computer account using smbpasswd -a -m data it is not able to add the account.

Thanks to everyone who has tried to help so far. Not quite there but I think I'm close. For anyone new, it's a private 2 comp network (RH9 and WXP) so I just want the simplest guest access possible. This is my current smb.conf file: [global] workgroup = SAMBA encrypt passwords = yes smb passwd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd security = share null

hello, i have a linux machine running samba with these settings: workgroup = ... netbios name = ... interfaces = lo eth1 bind interfaces only = yes hosts allow = .... smb ports = 139 local master = no os level = 35 domain master = yes preferred master = yes wins support = yes dns proxy = no browseable = yes .... the wxp computers have dhcp enable, the dhcp server has these

I got half way through an installation of CentOS on a box that has Window$ 98 in the first partition and Window$ XP in the second, where CentOS was designated for partitions 3 (/boot - 128MB) and 4 (/) and had some strange results. During the install, I changed the default OS to boot to Window$ (because I rarely use this machine, but others who don't have a clue use Wxx), but then while the

Let me rephrase my question: How do I access shares with WXP Pro. I don't want to be part of a domain. I just want to be able to search for the server from the computer, map a network drive to a share, and then life will be good. With that said, right now I can find the server. I can double-click it. But what comes up is a login box that only lets me put in a password. The

We have successfully added a windows XP client to the domain on the test network. We are able to logon to the domain, connect to the shares, etc. all is as it should be. We then tried to connect the XP client to the production network (same version of samba, same smb.conf file). No joy. We remove the machine from the test network domain, by joining a false workgroup on the client. Reboot the

Oh, so you are using ldap..., well I'm still working with smbpasswd as backend :-( Anyway, I tried 'net getlocalsid' for the domain-sid -> ok Next 'net usersidlist' which should show me the user-sids -> didn't work: "[2004/03/04 06:40:05, 0, pid=31232, effective(0, 0), real(0, 0)] utils/net_rpc.c:net_usersidlist(2158) Could not get the user/sid list" So

Hi, I've set up a domain where some of my users are using mandatory profiles to logon to the network. However, I got one problem that just doesn't go away. When my users log on, they do not get the correct keyboard setting - even if it is the same as configured for the mandatory user + all other users on the client machine. Instead the users get the us-keyboard settings. Also the users

Hi, Does anyone know of a document that gives details on how to set up Bind 9 and DHCPD 3.x so that dns is updated when clients log on? I saw this is not in the howto collection (http://www.bibsyst.no/samba/docs/man/DNSDHCP.html#id2981727) so I was kind of hoping someone else has some notes. I would be greatfull for any tips and links. Tarjei

Hi, I'm about to migrate a lot of files from a windows server to a new, shiny samba-server. I just got a small problem : What is the best way to do this? I'e tried rsync, but it croaks on some files with names like "somethign :some.eml" the same does cp. What I'm wondering about, is has anyone else had these problems, and if so, how did you solve them? Do you have a

Hi, I would like to make Sambaadmins aware of the simple and powerfull program dnsmasq. It makes setting up a caching dnsserver + dhcp-server that maps local machines to the local domain a breeze, something that is missing in the samba howto collection (http://www.bibsyst.no/samba/docs/man/DNSDHCP.html#id2981727). I've been running it for two months now, so I felt it was time to recomend

Hi, I experiemented a bit with the guest account parameter the other day, and I some questions: a) It seems to me that if you turn this parameter on, the user will be used when someone browses the domain without beeing a domain member, is this a true observation? (Don't answer this one, I checked the manual and it said yes). b) It also seems that the guestuser must have a sambaSid that

I have a Samba 3 PDC running with an LDAP backend on Red Hat 8. All authentication appears to be working correctly but I can't login to the domain from a W2K or WXP Pro workstation after I have successfully joined them to the domain. If I login locally to the workstation I can browse the Samba shares just fine. I have checked the schannel and sign or seal settings on both the workstations

Hi, Having set up a few Samba-ldap installations, I always end up with the feeling that OpenLDAP ACLs is what took time. The following patches / scripts might help someone else. I would appreciate some input on the access.conf.pl file so that it is even better tuned. Mr Tournier and the sambateam: Please include the files you find usefull. The attached files are: slapd.conf.pl : A simple

Hi, I'm running a samba server version 2.2.3a compiled from source. The server has been up running now since august. Now, I've suddenly been hit by a vierd bug. Several files that were opened by NT clients has been corupted. How? THE samba logs has been written into the files!! Obviusly this is a major problem. Has anyone suffered this problem ? Has it been fixed? Tarjei

Hi, I seem to remember somewhere that Samba 3 can be configured so that you do not need real users for computers, that these users only exists in some tdb database. How is this possible? Can someone describe how to do this? Many thanks, Tarjei Huse
