similar to: Patch to Samba 3.0.1?

I've gone back to 3.0.1 to try and get winbind to work with my Solaris 9 machine and NT4 domain. Everything works except user authentication. The wbinfo and getent commands do what they are supposed to. I've included a truss of 'su - ganguly' According to pamlog, the user 'ganguly' has been granted access but it is still hanging. How do I do a truss of a telnet login?

I've seen this posting before but I need to get a grasp on this. I am using winbindd for users that don't have a local account on a Linux box. I thought that placing the entries below in the smb.conf would create users in ou=Idmap. Instead the ou=Idmap increments the uidNumber with every user that is added,but the user ID mappings are stored in /usr/local/var/locks/winbindd_idmap.tdb. What

Just a quick question, it may sound a bit stupid but I just want to make sure. I have a Solaris 9 machine running winbind, the backend is an OpenLDAP database running on a RedHat 9 machine. My question is, apart from the 'smbpasswd -w' command and the obvious stuff in smb.conf, do I have to set up the LDAP client on Solaris for Samba to be able to put new mappings into the LDAP database?

I'm still stuck on the logging in part of winbind on Solaris 9. I've applied the required patch to the OS that is mentioned in the HOWTO and tried various other things. When I login at a command line console with a NT username and password I get a message (I've configured syslog.conf) saying that I've been granted access by pam_winbind but that is as far as it goes. I get no

Hello all, I hope this is an easy one, I've read all the howtos but I'm still very hazy on how to do this. What I want to do is replace my NT4 PDC with a Samba 3.0 PDC with an LDAP backend. I've got my OpenLDAP up and running with the basic People, Computers and Groups ou's. I've put the builtin NT groups in too. I have Samba 3.0 functioning as a BDC The trouble is

Dear list, How do I test whether I have access to my winbind LDAP backend from my Solaris 9 machine? My LDAP database is held on a Redhat 9.0 machine also running Samba 3.0.0. I know winbind works because getent and wbinfo show up my NT users and groups. I would also like to have people log into my Solaris 9 machine with their NT usernames, I have this working on Redhat already but Solaris is

__________________ Hi all, I've configured samba 3.0 as a domain memeber in NT 4.0 domain. Server has been added to the domain, without any problems, BUT, for three days...., I'm not able to find a way how to use NT domain resourses for this samba server. I can list domain users and groups with "wbinfo" command from but "getent passwd" lists only the local

Hi have been trying to get winbind working on Solaris 9 but to no effect. version info: samba: 3.0.0 openldap: 2.1.23 kerberos: MIT 1.3.1 Have followed the instructions in every howto, usenet posting I could find: nscd not running created relevant links in /lib and /lib/security/sparcv9 applied patch for nsswitch as recommended kinit -e works net ads join works wbinfo -t works wbinfo -u

This could be quite simple but I don't know how to do it. Does anyone know how I can automatically mount a users home drive (which is located on a windows server) when they log in? Is there a pam module for that? Thanks very much, Sapan

Hi Mike, Thanks for replying! I have tried that but I still have the same problem. I think that PAM is doing its job, I've set up logging so that everything in pam.conf logs to /var/log/pamlog. In pamlog I see "user 'ganguly' granted access". There is something else that is stopping this working, I just can't see what it is. Any ideas? -----Original Message-----

Hi Sapan! See the Vol 13 Digest MSG 34 of 28 Jan 04: here it is: --------------- IT WORKS!!! I can telnet, ftp, rsh... to my Samba 3.0.1 box (Solaris 9 sparc) here is (at the end) my pam.conf (in case somebody is interested in) The trick is commenting "other accound... winbind..." string in pam.conf!

John, We previously corresponded on our testing of Samba 3.0.0 RC4. Since then, we have downloaded the Samba 3.0.0 Release version for testing with some interesting results. The Setup Major Networks: Solaris (NIS), Windows Native NT4 Domain Our Test Plan We are testing Samba 3.0 as a candidate for replacing the old NT4 Domain. Being a complex production networking environment, we replicated

Mike, I got it working!! Have a look at what I have, here is my smb.conf and my pam.conf. # Global parameters [global] workgroup = RRLNTD01 server string = SUN001 security = DOMAIN password server = nts009 log level = 10 syslog = 7 log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m max log size = 50 name resolve order = wins lmhosts bcast

I got winbind working!! For anyone who is interested here is what my smb.conf looks like - [global] workgroup = DOMAIN server string = winbind client log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m max log size = 50 socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192 local master = no dns proxy = no idmap uid = 10000-20000 idmap gid = 10000-20000 template homedir = /home/%D/%U template shell =

Hi, Does anyone of you succeeded in building a 64-bits version of Samba 2.2.5 for Solaris 8 ? If so, what is the corresponding Makefile or make options ? Thanks. Fabien

I thought I'd summarise this with a proper subject line: 1. We used up2date to upgrade the kernel of a 7.2 machine that is doing far too much journalling (kjournald at 50% CPU+ often). 2. It installed fine, but when we reboot - GRUB only shows the old 2.4.7-10 although there are 3 kernels listed in grub.conf My Question is "How can we select booting to 2.4.18-24.7 when GRUB lonly lists

Hi, I am having some problems a Samba server logged into an Active Directory Domain, acting as PDC on Windows 2003 server. When I log into the AD domain from my XP machine, I see the Linux server, which has also logged into the AD server and exported a few shares. From XP i see the share in explorer but when I try to access it it pops up a login/password box for me. When I enter the login id

Hello Folks, We have 2 (identical hardware) busy public 2U rack servers, both have several hundred users & peak email (for example) deliveries at 300/5min during the daytime. Both servers run RAID1 over 2 EIDE disk drives. One server is fine - it never has problems - it is running RH7.3 and CPU loads are normal. The other server has constant disk activity & kjournald at CPU load of

All, Is there a way to setup serial communication between dom0 and domU. The idea is to have some way of exchanging messages between dom0 and domUs. Certainly, it is possible to use s host-only network, and ssh or shared file system to exchange data. However, there could be cases where the dom0 is not networked. You may want to automate configuring domUs from dom0. Any suggestions. Arijit

We run several RH7.2/7.3 servers & recently 2 of them, although still working fine, have started to show kjournald as generally using over 50% cpu% on 'top' - virtually continuously. Free cpu% generally less than 25% now! Both machines are also using software RAID5 EIDE ....... otherwise are standard server installs. Any info on what kjournald is & why it should have recently
