Hi guys/girls, How are you ? I've been struggling to get my users' passwords to expire. My configuration is samba-3.0 running with the standard smbpasswd back-end. Everything that I can find on the web says I should set the following to expire my users passwords after 28 days.: pdbedit -v -P 'minimum password age' -C 300 pdbedit -v -P 'maximum password age' -C 2419200

Hi guys, How are you ? My setup is as follows: Samba-3.0.0 PDC on a Slackware-9.0 box, with mixed N.T. and Windows 2000 clients. Everything has been running perfectly for months however now, it seems I've picked up a bit of a weird problem when changing a users password via smbpasswd. This problem only appears to affect users who log onto the Samba domain using a Windows 2000 PC. i.e If I

Hi guys, I've installed openldap-2.1.25 and Samba-3.0.2 and configured everything with no TLS on a Slackware-9.1 Linux box. To manage the LDAP backed I've used smbldap-tools-0.8.4. After populating the database with smbldap-populate I was able to first add users to /etc/passwd etc. and then to LDAP with smbldap-useradd -a and access the server via Windows PCs. Everything appeared to be

Hi guys and girls, A client of mine is seriously investigating migrating their 7 NT servers and 3000+ users to Linux running Samba. I've read one or two documents so far about the migration, but I'm still a little unclear about a number of things. When you have a chance I'd really appreciate your guidance on the following items. 1.) LDAP, /etc/passwd or MySQL backend (if supported).

Hi guys/girls, How are you keeping ? A while ago I mentioned a problem that I'm picking up with Samba with OpenLDAP and the "logon hours" restrictions which are implemented via the NT 4.0 User Manager. Basically my problem was that users were unable to login 2 hours before the actual restriction should kick in. At the time I thought that perhaps the problem was caused by

Hi guys and girls, I'm running Samba-3.0.4 as a PDC for about 40 workstations. It's been running perfectly for about 6 months. Suddenly in the last week two PCs have required that they be 'rejoined' to the domain. This seems to be happening every couple days or so. I've looked through the logs but can't find any clues about missing computer accounts etc. Any ideas why ?

Hi guys/girls, We are running a TDM04B card with Asterisk in a Linux box that has 15 GS102 extensions and 1 SNOM190 phone which we are using as an operator console. The FXO ports in the TDM04B are plugged directly into our telecoms provider's analogue lines. Something I've picked up with the SNOM is that sometimes when there are two active incoming calls via Zap channels and the first

Hi guys, Unfortunately this is still happening I've tried restarting Samba. Users who should be denied access after 21:00 are being denied access at 19:00. Our time zone in South Africa is GMT+2. Perhaps I should set the timezone on the server to UTC/GMT ? Do you think this will help ? Should I then leave the time set to the current time in South Africa ? Or should I set the time to the

More information on my problem below. It seems that users that were only meant to kicked off at 21:00 were kicked off at 19:00. I've checked the time and timezone on the Linux server and all seems correct. I think I've messed up something somewhere to do with Samba and time and Logon Hours restrictions. Please point me in the right direction. Many thanks David Wilson From: "David
