similar to: Samba 3 PDC with LDAP - Error when changing userpasswordfrom windows

Hello, I have a working samba (2.0.7) server (Debian GNU/Linux 2.2) configured with security = user, but NOT domain. The clients are Windows 98. I whish windows users to be able to change their password without logging on the server (unix account on the server are disabled). I tried from the Password applet of the Control Panel, but I was able only to change the password stored on the Windows

When I am setup external passwd change script (syncldap) for sync my smb pass and unix pass, and change smb password on my windows client client, him return error, but password change is successful! It's log from samba for my windows client machine: [2004/08/04 11:46:52, 3] smbd/chgpasswd.c:chat_with_program(424) chat_with_program: Dochild for user g-marchenko (uid=0,gid=0) (as_root =

I can't get my Samba PDC (FreeBSD 7,0-BETA3) changing UNIX passwords from Windows clients (Ctrl-Alt-Del). I now have the password chat debug active and I have loglevel 100. I am not certain about the syntax in the password chat. But if I from a console try to change the password of a given user (here testuser1), I see these lines: mflserver3# /usr/bin/passwd testuser1 Changing local password

The %o passwd chat parameter (current password) doesn't seem to be working in this release. I'm running a Redhat 9 system that seems to require it. Changing the %o to the current password allows everything to work so I'm pretty sure it is something related to that parameter. Is this a bug or am I just reading the log wrong? from smb.conf: unix password sync = Yes passwd program

After a long battle with the having the password hash types that samba sets in LDAP being incompatibile with anything else that I wanted to do I finally have the idealx tools set to give me crypt passwords. Now however I'm running into the familiar "You don't have permission to change your password" problem, but the passwords are actually set correctly. My test machine is

Hey list, Recently I've gotten my Samba PDC to successfully use an OpenLDAP backend, while using the smbk5pwd and ppolicy overlays for OpenLDAP. However, Samba appears to incorrectly handle responses from LDAP's ppolicy overlay, even though it very clearly receives them. If I enter in a password (be it through Ctrl+Alt+Delete or when a password expires and the user is prompted at logon)

Hi all, I'm trying to set up my "passwd chat", then I was adviced to use: passwd chat debug = yes debug level = 103 encryp passwords = no But I can't find the "chat" inside log.smbd What am I doing wrong? Cheers, -- Benilton Carvalho DE / IMECC / UNICAMP Red Hat Linux i18n Team

I host a server where the files on the server are licensed such that only one user can access each file at any one time. To clarify: There could be 100 files on the server, and each file can only ever be read by one user. I'm trying to find a way of either allowing only 1 TCP connection per file, or perhaps forcing a read-lock on every file opened such that no other users can access a file

Hi All I've installed Samba 2.0.3 and coudn't put "unix passowrd sync" to work. I set: passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u passwd chat = *New*password:* %n\n *Re-enter*new*password:* %n\n*changed.* passwd chat debug = Yes unix password sync = Yes log level = 100 The password page says "The password for 'user' has been changed". In fact it has been

- Compiled Samba version 2.2.4 - Slackware Linux, Kernel 2.4.17 - Windows 2000 Professional, SP2 Here's what I know: You have username MyNetworkUsername (exactly with case) in /etc/samba/smbpasswd and /etc/passwd. You have Samba running as a PDC, with unix password sync enabled. Password Sync options at default for the most part (passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u). In W2K, you

1. yes, I tried these lines and in the logs, there was a failure in response 3 "match no". When I manually ran smbldaa-passwd.pl in xterm, I saw that there's never a "successfully" meesage when the password is changed with success, I looked the code (luckily it's Perl ;o)), and I didn't see any "print "succes"" or "print "password

I've finally gotten Samba (version 1.9.18p4) working on a RS/6000 server running AIX version 4.3.2, for a group of Windows NT 4.0 workstations on build 5 to access some shared directories. Everything works fine when I set them up - I have encrypt passwords = yes smb passwd file = /usr/local/samba/private/smbpasswd in my smb.conf, added the passwords to the smbpasswd file, and it

Hi, in the last weeks I've unsuccessfully tried to get Samba (2.0.5a) - Unix (Suse 6.2) password sync working. Maybe somebody can give me a hint, what's wrong.

Hi all, I'm running samba 2.2 as a domain master on redhat7.3 os. Just recently we started subneting the network. I have entries for the domain in the dns servers. But for some reason I can't autenticate to the domain. I have noticed when I try to authenticate that the requests are not reaching the server. Every time i try to logon I check the samba log files but i see no activities.
