Hi, i want to run a standalone-samba-PDC with a mysql-passdb backend and i configured the mysql-database as required. but how should i add/remove users ? when i try smbpasswd -a username most columns in database have [NULL] values i also tried pdbedit but it exits with "No user SID retrieved from database!" is there another tool to add/remove users ? is my smb.conf ok, or do i need to

ehh, just a little remark/note for the mysql passwd backend users and developers... when adding a user, the 'account desc' field is NOT filled in..! when adding some text manualy, and doing pdbedit -v <user> the field showes up, so when reading from the passwdbackend, the fields are resolved, when writting too the passwdbackend , the description field (and maybe more important

Hello everyone, Hello Jelmer, in 3.0.20, it still is not possible to add new users using pdbedit. See bug report at https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2531 In 3.0.14a it was possible to copy pdb_sql.c and pdb_mysql.c from 3.0.11 and it worked, but this workaround does not help anymore, as the files seem to be incompatible. Jelmer, could you please have a look at this one? I consider

Hello, I have successfully compiled samba with the mysql module. I had to make this change for it to compile. In: samba-3.0.7/source/passwd/pdb_mysql.c change #include <mysql/mysql.h> to #include <mysql.h> Then I setup the smb.conf file for mysql: netbios name = machine workgroup = coach security = user domain logons = yes domain master = yes passdb backend = mysql:samba

If I try to do the following: /usr/local/samba/bin/pdbedit -a -u someusername -U 5000 This works as one would think, the account is created with a RID of 5000. But when I do: /usr/local/samba/bin/pdbedit -a -m -u somemachinename -U 3000 It does not work as you would think. The account is created but with the RID of the Unix UID*2+1000 not, a RID of 3000 as specificed on the command line. And

Hi there. I've installed the new samba3 distribution and I'd like to use the mysql backend for the autentication instead of the normal passwd file. I've read the docs and I've added the correct info to smb.conf. Now, I'd like to create a new user in the database. Is there any script for that or I must do the "INSERT ..." by and (or create a script for that)

I'm using samba 3.0 alpha 23 on debian woody using a tdb backend. I've written a simple add machine script that takes care of the useradd and pdbedit -a -m steps. When I try to add a machine to the domain directly from that machine, without creating the accounts beforehand, I get an "Access Denied" error. After getting this error, I check on the samba machine and see that the

Hello, I've recently tried to change samba (Version 3.0.20b) from smbpasswd auth to mysql(5) auth using a remote mysql server. To generate my database table I used the supplied file in the samba vanilla distribution under examples/pdb/mysql called 'mysql.dump'. Then I used pdbedit -i smbpasswd -e mysql:blah to migrate of course. That yielded some column entry problem so I tried to add

I'm having trouble setting the Workstations value on a tdbsam backend using pdbedit. I can't seem to find the correct syntax to accomplish this. I found some references in an older version of the HOWTO where there existed "Chapter 10. Account Information Databases". This whole chapter is missing from the current HOWTO even though it is referenced in the newest version (a

Dear Samba Users, I have a Samba 3.2.5 Server running on Debian. I use tdbsam as a password database and wonder how I can change the "Workstations" value in order to control the allowed workstations for a particular user. Last year I had a configuration with ldap using the smbldap tools where it was possible to set this value. But how can I set it without LDAP just using pdbedit?

Hi list, I hope you can help me out here...

Hello list, Some days ago i sent an email to this ML about a problem im having with listing users on winXP/2k+3 computers. The thing is our samba PDC has +1600 users and, this time i counted, there only appear on the "security advanced settings" list box (where we select users that can read/write/execute on a windows directory share), about 500/550 users. There is no evident reason

Ehmmm, i would like to make some sugestions for the new samba release.. the "hide files =" in the smb.conf is a [global] parameter, wouldn't it be nice to make this a [section] parameter...
