works with plaintext passwords (as fallback) NT4.0 incl. servicepack refuses to work (you may recognize this behaviour by repeating entering the login and the password a couple of times. Then you will be able to mount a share). (more on this topic in /usr/doc/packages/samba/ ENCRYPTION.txt). Solution: Well, either you may convince NT via its Windows registry to use plaintext passwords There is

I've attached a perl script that I wrote to build smbpasswd from /etc/passwd. Please note that this writes a samba-2.0 format smbpasswd file. This script will: # - create accounts that exist in /etc/passwd and not in smbpasswd # - remove accounts that exist in smbpasswd and not in /etc/passwd # - preserve existing password, flags and LCT fields in smbpasswd # - sets new account passwords to

I am trying to setup a /etc/smbpasswd file for my users. I use the following command to create the /etc/smbpasswd file cat /etc/passwd | ./mksmbpasswd.sh > /etc/smbpasswd Redhat 7.1, samba 2.2.5 I thought that users could log onto the linux system and simply type the command: smbpasswd and it would ask for the new password. But it asks for an OLD password which never works. I thought

mksmbpasswd.sh does not create accounts with the X flag in the password flags field. Does this X matter, and if so, what does it mean? It's not in the man page. ---- _ _ _ _ ___ _ _ _ |Y#| | | |\/| | \ |\ | | | Ryan Novosielski - Jr. UNIX Systems Admin |$&| |__| | | |__/ | \| _| | novosirj@umdnj.edu - 973/972.0922 (2-0922) \__/ Univ. of Med. and Dent. | IST/ACS - NJMS Medical

I am working in an environment with an HP-UX NIS that my Red Hat ES 4.x system is using for Unix access controls. My Red Hat system is serving as an NFS server for the HP-UX users who also could be Windows users coming from a Windows Server 2003 active directory. I have tested some configurations of SAMBA using winbind, but I don't get the results I want. What happens when using winbind

I'm a little less new to samba now - but having a heck of a time getting authentication to work. I'm running NIS+, configured samba with --with-nisplus --with-nisplus-home and --with-automount. Does anyone have some good nis/samba references? I'm striking out. The smbpasswd file *does* have to become smbpasswd.org_dir for samba to work. I first created the smbpasswd file using

Could somebody please explain just how one is supposed to set up samba users, groups and passwords so connections can be established to Win2k clients to connect to FBSD samba server for file sharing and to use cups for printing. I am afraid that the manuals and config files and various examples I have found on the Internet are quite confusing. How is the Windows username/passord related to

Hello. When I run smbpasswd from samba 3.0.23a on a MIPSEL system running Linux 2.4.20 as root, I'm NEVER asked for a password. Even when I create a new user in smbpasswd, I'm not asked: root@HD.bei.digitalprojects.com:/etc/samba# strings smbpasswd root:0:AAD3B435B51404EEAAD3B435B51404EE:31D6CFE0D16AE931B73C59D7E0C089C0:[U ]:LCT-44D63D42:

Samba can not link to ldap Samba can not retrieve password information for users. I have got stuck with the problem outlined below. I have already spent 2 weeks trying to find information on the www and various mailing lists, without success. I would be happy if someone has an idea what I have to fix. I do not particularly need ldap, so if anybody can tell me how to seperate Samba from ldap it

Hi Folks, I downloaded Samba2.0alpha8 from Samba site. Compiled it and installed it on the Solaris 2.6 unix box. I set up domain logon for both Windows 98 clients and WinNT. There is no problem logging on from Windows98 and the shares are all working alright. Then, I followed Samba NTDOM FAQ and add the NT workstation name into /etc/passwd and smbpasswd (using smbpasswd -a -m

Hello I am running a net work with a NT4PDC a NT4 BDC and attent to add samba BDC.

Hi I use NIS om my network (CentOS4.6). When an update on a map occurs (home directory changed in /etc/passwd for instance), I run make -C /var/yp/ and check the result on a client. On the client I use "ypcat passwd" and find indeed that the update has propagated (the clients run ypbind service). On the client I have configured /etc/nsswitch.conf with : passwd: files nis shadow:

Hi, I'm attempting to migrate an NT4 domain to Samba3, and getting quite frustrated with stuff that seems not to work as advertised. I'd appreciate any help. I've set up an OpenLDAP server, and Samba 3, configured it as a BDC, and tried running "net rpc vampire". This all works, and Samba does the appropriate stuff to try and populate the LDAP database. The scripts I've

I am seeing an odd behavior with NT4.0 SP3 workstations trying to rename files on Samba 1.9.18p2 shares on SunOS 4.1.3 servers. Rename, whether it is run from Explorer, winfile.exe, or command prompt fails with "Access Denied I don't see the problem from Win95 PCs at all, and I don't have the problem with shares from Samba 1.9.18p2 shares on Solaris 2.5.1 servers using identical

My question is, how come daevid (on XP) sees the following directories: \\linux\dae51d \\linux\homes Shouldn't there just be the home dir only? Why does "\\linux\dae51d" show up (I assume it's b/c that's who I am logged in as on XP which maps to linux)? However, the fact that it does show up, shouldn't it be the actual HOME directory of the linux user account dae51d (as

I see that mksmbpasswd.sh (plus a little editing) would be a good way to set up users with "NO PASSWORD" in bulk. But suppose I don't want the risk of the "NO PASSWORD" approach. Now somebody with root access must run smbpasswd for each user they want to activate. But can't I just do this anyway (with the -a 'add user' option), without ever having run

While looking at optimizations where Souper exploits known bits, I realized that it would be easy to teach Souper to compute known bits. Comparing its results against computeKnownBits() from r246393, it looks like there are some easy (and some not-easy) opportunities for improvement, please see a few examples below. The expressions come from compiling LLVM itself. Happily, this exercise
