similar to: Samba Winbind and LDAP backend

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

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?

Hi All, I'm having a strange pronlem with winbind. For users it seems to be working fine but for groups its not enumerating most of the groups! A getent group produces only 325 lines of domain groups whereas wbinfo -g produces 2839 lines of groups. I'm not seeing any errors logged and all commands are exiting with status 0. Winbind related sections of smb.conf are shown below,

Everytime I add or remove some samba shares, I must restart smb service to take effect. Is there anyway to reconfig it without restart?

Hi All, can anyone make any sense of the error below, please advise if I need to log this as a bug but I'm not sure how to further diagnose what is happening. This is from my winbindd log file, thanks Andy. [2003/11/07 17:47:59, 1] nsswitch/winbindd.c:main(832) winbindd version 3.0.0 started. Copyright The Samba Team 2000-2003 [2003/11/07 17:48:00, 1]

Hi list, I'm trying to compile samba 3.0.1 rc1 with --enable-dmalloc switch because I have been asked to provide more information on a winbindd panic on a Solaris server. However the configure fails with the error shown below, config.status: creating include/config.h Note: The dmalloc debug library will be included. To turn it on use ./configure: command substitution: line 3: syntax error:

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

I am having problems with the configuration of samba 3.0.1 on a Solaris 2.6 box. This box has no previous samba versions installed. When I try to configure samba I get the following error. # cd samba-3.0.1/source #./configure -with-ads 2>&1 |tree config.new.log fails with the following error:- checking for LDAP support... auto checking ldap.h usability... no checking ldap.h

__________________ 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

As Samba 3.x does not work with the Kerberos included with Solaris (it has no headers) I have to remove it and replace it with MIT kerberos. Does anyone know if Solaris kerberised services will still work normally (without modification) such as kerberised NFS? I briefly tested this and couldn't het it to work, but if someone has a definative answer it might save me a lot of trouble, thanks

Hi list, If I have multiple Samba member servers in a domain can I store the groupmap data in LDAP? When I try this I get this error # net groupmap add ntgroup=Everyone unixgroup=nobody No rid or sid specified, choosing algorithmic mapping adding entry for group nobody failed! But this works correctly (creates account in LDAP server) smbpasswd -a username password the LDAP config in my

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

Hi all, our NT server guy has just asked me if I can disable/prevent offline folder support on a Samba share. This is something which is configurable on a Windows 2000/2003 server share. Any help much appreciated, thanks Andy.

Dear list, Is it sufficient to patch my 3.0.0 install to 3.0.1 on my Solaris 9 machine? Or do I have to recompile the whole lot from scratch? Does the new version put all the files in the right places, e.g. pam_winbind.so and libnss_winbind.so? (I think the HOWTO still says you have to copy these to the right places and make links if you want to use winbind) I'm just wondering whether it

Hi all, anyone able to point out why I'm not able to get samba 3.0.0 to update my LDAP server with any idmap data? I'm using SunOne DS 5.2 LDAP server and the following entries in my smb.conf file, ldap admin dn = "uid=admin,ou=Administrators,ou=TopologyManagement,o=NetscapeRoot" ldap ssl = off ; ldap suffix = "dc=testlan,dc=bbc,dc=co,dc=uk" ** have tried with this

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 All, I am trying to get SSL working with Samba 3.0. My set up is Samba 3.0 as a USER server in its own Workgroup (will eventually be part of a domain). My platform is Solaris 9 and the ldap service I am using is iPlanet directory server 5.2. I can get users to log in to the server using their ldap account and password but not over SSL. The iPlanet directory has a certificate on it (self

Can anyone tell me if I can configure Samba 3.x to rely only on Kerberos authentication (in an AD domain)? Ideally I'd like to use local UNIX accounts, not winbind, and negate the need for me to add an entry to passdb, then the account must exist in AD and locally on each Samba member server for authentication to work. If there is any info held in passdb, other than the NTLM coded password,
