corresponding UNIX user (or dummy entry in the password file) for each NT user who you want to authenticate, otherwise they can't get on unless you have set up "guest ok =yes" and defined a username for "guest" to connect as . This works for us, my NT karen account gets matched to my Unix Karen account, new files I create from the PC side get assigned the correct Unix UID,

I was troubleshooting a problem we were having with some files not rsyncing properly over an nfs mount (the destination device is a snapserver (NAS) that did not have native ability to receive streaming rsync info, that's why we were doing this rsync over an NFS connection to the snapserver). Anyway, at first I thought this was just one of the quirks of the snapserver (it isn't

Have you tried in smb.conf username map = /usr/local/samba/lib/domainuser.map winbind use default domain = no For every user you have to create an entry in the /usr/local/samba/lib/domainuser.map, that looks like <unixusername> = "<domainname>+<username>" I?m using a script that generates the domainuser.map automaticly, because our users are using NIS

Samba team, I posted the following message on May 30 to comp.protocols.smb, but no one has responded to the posting as of yet, so I thought I'd try this email list. We are testing winbind and security=domain to authenticate NT users on our UNIX box in samba (v2.2.3a). Winbind is working correctly. Wbinfo shows users as domainname+username (we are using "+" as the

Hi- I am running Samba 2.2.8 on Solaris 8. Our Windows team has upgraded Windows 2003 servers Active Directory to Windows 2008. Samba is not working now. Can someone suggest the best Samba version for Solaris 8 that I can upgrade to that will support the new Windows 2008 authentication mechanism. Thanks -Steve Stephen P.

Hi- I am running Samba 2.2.5 on Solaris 8 with winbind and pam configured. I have the following in my nsswitch.conf: passwd: files winbind group: files winbind Now local users on the Solaris 8 machine cannot change there password using the passwd command: Here is the sample output: # passwd michasp1 Enter new password: Enter new password again: Supported configurations for passwd

Couple questions to those who have the winbindd service up and running... I *think* winbindd is working now... I can browse the samba server through windows explorer and open directories. There is a little delay when I first connect... I assume this is winbind passing the authentication request to my NT servers and awaiting a response. The problem now is that I can't seem to write to the

1. What version of samba? You should be trying 2.2.5 or 2.2 6 for one of the more stable winbind releases. 2. Are you running NIS? Try changing the winbind separator to _ (underscore) 3.. Did you put winbind in your nsswitch.conf file? If so, did you force the system to re-read that info (happens automatically on solaris, must run nsadmin restart on Irix, don't know about other

Hi I'm new to this list. I'm running samba 2.2.2. on Solaris 8 and trying to get winbind to work. I've modified my nsswitch.conf file to include: passwd: files winbind shadow: files winbind group: files winbind I have compiled samba with the --with-winbind option and copied the libnss_winbind.so files to /lib problems: 1. getent passwd only returns local users (passwd

I've built samba by hand before , but I've never seen this message, perhaps you can shed some light. I suddenly can't get past the ./configure script. ./configure --prefix=/usr/samba --with-winbind --with-automount gives me the following error: checking for conflicting AUTH_ERROR define in rpc/rpc.h ... no checking for test routines ... configure: error: can't find

Hi. Does anyone have samba 2.2.2 on Solaris 8 working with winbindd? I have samba 2.2.2 installed and configured --with-winbind and have the winbindd daemon running but the following does not work: 1. "getent passwd" Solaris command on returns local users (no Domain users) 2. winbindd authentication to the PDC is not occurring. 3. local users cannot change password since I modified the

I'm testing Samba 2.2.5 with winbind. I can successfully authenticate domain users who do and don't have corresponding UNIX accounts as well as domain users who do have a UNIX account. Files created from PC side by usera show up in UNIX "ls -l" as owned by usera so I thought the automatic username mapping was working correctly, but I found out that usera isn't being

Background: I'm trying to make sure my Unix and NT users are being assigned the correct UID from both platforms so they own files correctly from both sides. I was hoping to avoid username maps since our users with cross platform access already have matching usernames on both sides (or will when we reconfigure). I've been playing with several parameters, and fixed some things, but I did

Anyone know of a brief overview of the expected limitations on an IRIX system running Samba 2.2.3a +Winbind? Everything seems to least work, but I still find some odd permissions things going on. The IRIX machine is authenticating NT users from my NT domain OK and I can specify user rights to files, but when you do a long listing under IRIX it list the file as being owned by DOMAIN-NAME with

We are testing winbind and security=domain to authenticate NT users on our UNIX box in samba (v2.2.3a). Winbind is working correctly. Wbinfo shows users as domainname+username (we are using "+" as the separator), however, the NT usernames aren't automatically mapping to their corresponding UNIX usernames as expected. Perhaps I don't understand how this is supposed to work?

Well, I managed to get Samba 2.2.3 up and running on our Solaris 8 machine. I installed with the winbind option and everything went though just find. I was able to join the NT domain and now I can do a wbinfo -u "and get a domain user list as well as a "wbinfo -g and get a group list. For some reason though, the authentication isn't working. I tried to "wbinfo -a" and

I am assuming that you have guest ok = yes, and that guest is the nobody account. It sounds like your name lookups are not searching winbind, do you have winbind in your nsswitch.conf file for password and group? Have you restarted your nameservice lookups (automatic on solaris, nsadmin restart on Irix, don't know about other platforms but a reboot should certainly take care of it if you

Hey, I'm getting this error when ever I've written a file from my Win2k Pro machine to my samba share. Using Samba 2.2.3. Built on Solaris 8. Using winbindd. I created the sym links as suggested under /lib (really /usr/lib): nss_winbind.so.1 -> libnss_winbind.so nss_winbind.so.2 -> libnss_winbind.so Are there some other sim links I need somewhere or is this error something

I'm just curious to see if I'm fighting an uphill battle that isn't really necessary. Is anyone out there NOT using PAM, running Samba and winbind on Solaris 8? Maybe my problems are related to my attempt to keep it simple and not use pam. -Dan Daniel J.

Hi, I've got Winbind running (or so I think) on my Solaris 8 server using Samba 2.2.3a. Whenever I do a long directory listing on a directory that contains a file placed via the samba share by an NT user on the trusted domain, the SUN box just hangs there. It acts like it is searching the database, but after three or four minutes I just CRTL + C it. Do you think this is winbind not working
