similar to: Must a Samba PDC use LDAP for nss?

Hi All, It seems like Samba 3 does require the PDC to use LDAP for nss when using ldapsam. I reconfigured Solaris 9 to use nss_ldap and 'getent group' now shows the posixGroups created by the 'net rpc vampire' operation. I then cleaned up the LDAP database and ran vampire again. Each group is created successfully with incrementing gidNumber 10000 onward. 'net groupmap

So here is the setup now: pam worknig, ldap working, samba working, passwd sync works great both ways (linux accounts > win accouns; win > lin). I'm useing another domain name for the new pdc.

Hi All, I have tried logging into ftp using my NT username and password and it works.

Hi All, I am unable to 'net rpc vampire' the NT4 user accounts and groups into an ldapsam. The PDC is Windows NT4.0 sp6a and the ldapserver is SunONE DS 5.1 on Solaris 9. I believe the sambaSamAccount schema has been imported successfully (output below). Any help received is greatly appreciated. Thanks. Darren. Here is what happens... [root@mitosis bin]$./net rpc join -S NT4-PDC -w

G'day, I'd like to know how to restrict access to the [homes] share. Currently, each user is able to read/write to his/her own share, and by typing \\machine\anotheruser can open another user's share and read/write there too. I would like to restrict access so that a user can only read/write to their own share only. Here is some of the relevant config: [global] workgroup = ASDF

Hi, I'm a informatics engineering student and I am working on a factory placement which consists of migrating an NT4 based network upon Red Hat Linux AS 3. I took the manual from www.samba.org <http://www.samba.org/> and adapted the variables as suitable for my case. The only one moment where I cannot carry on anymore is when I am supposed to use net rpc vampire on the PDC. Here is

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

I'm helping out a small office upgrade their NT 4 PDC to Samba. It's a small office of 6 people, so tdbsam is being used. They keep having tape backup issues and other problems, so one of the reasons for the Samba migration is to allow me to SSH into their box and remotely administer it from home on evenings/weekends. Currently I'm testing the move using two dummy machines, and

Reading through the Samba3 -By Example guide and I'm confused with the statement section 9.2 http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-Guide/ntmigration.html#id2594565 about accessing the SAM and Security sections of the registry will render the PDC non operable. Its clear from the text if you go and edit the registry(regedit etc..) so you can read the entries your PDC will not work.

Hi All, Here is my configure script: ./configure --with-ldap --with-ldapsam Configure works ok.

Hi All, Is it possible to vampire across dots in usernames? I got over 1000 accounts with dots in them eg. <firstname>.<lastname> The smbldap-tools (version 0.8.2) don't seem to like adding users and groups with dots in them. Any help much appreciated. Darren

Hi, I've been in the process of attempting a transition from our current NT 4.0 PDC to Samba 3.0.4 on linux (Debian running the 2.4.18 kernel). I can get the smbd/nmbd up and running just fine and configure them by hand or with SWAT and the changes are saved. I've been following the HOWTO's and get stuck at the net rpc vampire step: I am able to join the linux machine, call it

Hi all, I have just compiled and installed Samba 3.0rc2 on Solaris 9 8/03 using gcc 3.3. sh makepkg.sh almost crashed the Sun box, as I ran out of swap space in /tmp. I didn't realise that the binaries were going to be over 800mb. The box came back after about 5 minutes and I was able to add more swap space using mkfile and swap -a. I think a warning would be a good idea, otherwise perhaps

Hi All, Has anyone used pam_smbpass before with Samba 3 and Solaris 9? The problem I am facing is that the sambaNTPassword/sambaLMPassword and the posixAccount userPassword attributes are not the same. While I can use "net rpc vampire" to migrate the lanman password hashes the posixAccount attribute remains unpopulated. I have discovered that the smbldap tools has scripts to

Hi, I have searched for days on Google and can't find a clear answer to my question. I have a NT4 PDC which I am migrating to Samba 3 (Version 3.4.2-47.fc12) on FC12 with kernel(2.6.31.5-127.fc12.i686). I am using tdbsam as my passdb backend. I setup Samba as a BDC and then joined to NT4 Domain succesfully. When I go to vampire the accounts I get lots of errors and some user accounts get

Greetings, After a few weeks trying, I figured out how to migrate from NT4 PDC to Samba-3/LDAP/SMBLDAP-TOOLS, at least in my case. I will just explain my setup and my understanding why it works and why it fails. I hope it is helpful to others who are in the same situation as I was. Basic Setup: OS: Fedora-2 (FC2) samba-3.0.3 that comes with FC2. openldap-2.1.29 that comes
