Hello, I'm still trying to get this straightened out. I have the following system: System description RedHat 8.0 LDAP 2.1.23 Samba 3.0 I have basically 2 BDC that I want users to have home directories on. These also run LDAP backend as slave servers. Do all machines using the domain need to have machine accounts on the PDC or do some that use the BDC for home directories need to have

Hello, I found an interesting thing that I don't know if it is a bug, by design or I need to be doing something that I'm not but here goes. My system RedHat 8.0 (1) PDC with LDAP 2.1.23 backend master, (3) BDC with LDAP slave backend. All are Samba 3.0.

Hello, I can't get my BDC to talk to the LDAP slave running on the same machine. Replication between slave and master works but samba on the BDC doesn't appear to be communicating with the slave LDAP server. Everything off the PDC works fine. -- smb.conf on BDC -- [global] workgroup = WarehamPS encrypt passwords = Yes time offset = 60 time server = Yes

Stephanie, Thank you for your help. I tryed what you suggest but no luck.. I get this: root@lnxsrvr2:~# /usr/local/samba/bin/net groupmap add ntgroup="Domain Admins" unixgroup="Domain Admins" rid=512 Can't lookup UNIX group Domain Admins Is there something with initial compiling samba 3.0.0 that would disable this? All the documentation that I've seen makes it look so

Hello, I thought I had this all figured out but I don't. I have a RedHat 8 system using LDAP 2.1.23 as backend to Samba 3.0.0. I wasn't able to get machines to join the domain so I used the debug option in slapd -d 10 to see what Samba was sending the LDAP server. It looked like it was resolving my admin to the guest account. I went back to check groupmap list and got the following error

Not related to joining W2K clients to a domain but the "net" command refuses to work if there is a problem in smb.conf. Even if you run testparm and nothing is wrong. I don't kno if it's the order or whitespaces that causes it to not work. I"ve had to swap out smb.conf several times because I couldn't find the problem why the "net" command wouldn't run.

I have yet to get group mapping to work in samba 3.0. Getting very frustrated. I'm using openldap 2.1.23 as the backend database for samba 3.0.0. I've added the base domain groups as posixAccounts to the LDAP database using smbldap-populate.pl. root@lnxsrvr2:/usr/local/etc/openldap# ldapsearch -xv -b "o=30greatneck,dc=home,dc=net" # Administrator, Users, 30GreatNeck, home.net

Hello, It's me again. I'm running Samba 3.0 and LDAP 2.1.23 on a RedHat 8.0 system. I am able to browse shares and home directories. I get a: Logon failure: unknown username or bad password when I try to connect a W2k machine. For Win/95/98 the system already works. I believe it is setup OK I need to work on scripts that work with MMC. I just want a basic connect a w2k machine right

Hello, I have a problem where non-AD systems can no longer connect to Samba shares. Samba 3.5.x servers are a members in AD, Windows 2008R2. This has worked flawlessly since we initiated it a couple years back. This happened to all 3 Samba servers after AD servers were rebooted. My thoughts are it was a Windows update that wrecked the system. Here is a typical setup: Winbind not used Samba

Hello, I'm trying to get Winbind to authenticate users that don't have local accounts on a SAMBA BDC. I have (3) BDCs (1) PDC running OpenLDAP 2.1.23 pass backend and Samba 3.0. These are on RedHat 8.0 systems. 3 BDC are also slave LDAP and 1 master directory server on the PDC. I went through the Samba documentation CH21 and made modifications to the BDCs and PDC as follows:

Hi all, I have a class of Linux/OpenSource newbies and want to explain the origins of Samba as a typical Open Source project. My interest in Samba has grown, as well as my implementation of Samba.

Hi all, I have a data.frame with the following colnames pattern: x1 y11 x2 y21 y22 y23 x3 y31 y32 ... I.e. I have an x followed by a few y's.

Hello, I just thought I would post this since it may be helpful to others if they run into the same issues I did. I am using Samba 3.0 with openLDAP 2.1.23 as backend db on a Slackware 9 system.

Hello, Is it really possible that just the user root with the samba password can join workstations into the domain? I have also some other users who are domain administrator, but with this users i can't join any workstations into the domain. This is mor me a important security point, because I want to give some people the acces right to join workstations into domain and only this function.
