Hi list, I'm on the way to translate the BDC Howto into french, and encountered a too quick Yjjjp (copy+down{3}+paste). It is in the table 6.1, last cell : Use rsync to synchronize the TDB database files from the PDC to the BDC. should read Use rsync to synchronize the smbpasswd file from the PDC to the BDC.

I've just compiled Samba 3.0.0 on a Solaris 8 system (gcc, if it matters), and whenever I run anything from the samba suite, I get a series of error message about character set conversions: Conversion from UCS-2LE to CP850 not supported Conversion from UTF8 to CP850 not supported ... and about 10 more, all involving CP850 (the "standard" DOS codepage, presumably). Now,

I'm not sure if the problem I'm about to describe is related to configuration or a limitation in SAMBA, hopefully you'll know the answer... We have a SAMBA server that provides Windows workstations access to CATIA V5 CAD data which resides on other NFS servers. The SMB shared directories are all under a single directory called 'catiav5': /catiav5 /server1

I can't use a ? (forward tick, accent acute) in a filename on a samba share. Is this an error or intention? If i copy a file with ? to the samba share the result will be, the tick will be converted to a capital Z with back and forward tick on it and the rest of the filename is dropped. samba 3.01rc1 [global] dos charset = CP850 unix charset = ISO8859-15 display charset = LOCALE [raid2]

Hi, I have Samba 3 as Domain controller. From a Windows 2000 Professional I share a folder (c:\test) with access permission for certain domain user (MYDOMAIN\yo). I can access to that folder from other w2000 with that user validated into it. If I add that user to a unix group (domadm) and map this group to Domain Admins (net groupmap modify ntgroup="Domain Admins"

Hi all, I want to use the Domino LDAP to authenticate Samba users over it. Did anyone knows, if Samba and Domino LDAP works with together??? If yes, where can I find something about it respectively anyone can tell me how it works?! Thanks Andreas

Hi, In smbldap-useradd.pl is a pice of code, which find the first unused uid starting from $UID_START (for example 1000). if (!defined($userUidNumber)) { # find first unused uid starting from $UID_START while (defined(getpwuid($UID_START))) { $UID_START++; } I've over 500 UID's in use (maximum UID is 1547). It works well, until you delete an user. After deleting an user,

Hi, I'm newbie with Samba. I'm using Samba-3.0 directly installed with Fedora core. I've made a PDC linux server with Samba-3.0, openldap-2.1.22 with pam_ldap everything seems to be good but not with net groupmap. when using command: "net groupmap list" I have the following error : [2003/12/15 17:52:15, 0] passdb/pdb_ldap.c:ldapsam_setsamgrent(2048) ldapsam_setsamgrent:

Good afternoon everyone. I'm testing out the new samba 3 (3.0.1 to be exact) with openldap 2.1.22. ( have setup a samba 2.2.8a with openldap 2.0.27 as a PDC in the past) I've read up on a few pages about some of the reqs that are needed: http://www.unav.es/cti/ldap-smb/smb-ldap-3-howto.html I've followed the Samba How-To as well. I edited my slapd.conf file and added the correct

Hi, we have tested Samba 3.0.0 and 3.0.1 with LDAP-Support (--with-ldap) on Solaris 8 and it worked fine. The machine authenticates against an OpenLDAP server. Patch 108993-23 is applied and we use native Sun LDAP client modules. On Solaris 9 we ran into problems with secondary groups. Users cannot access files if the rights are based on a secondary group and if this information is stored on

Hi list, After kudos, time comes again with problems. This time, still on the same setup as before : - Linux PDC with ldapsam, ran by RH9, OpenLDAP 2.0.27 (stock RH9 RPM+Solaris RootDSE patch), Samba 3.0.1rc1 recompiled from SRPM ; - Linux BDC is the same ; The PDC and BDC are working Ok, so I won't include the smb.conf from these. - Solaris 9 domain member (jersey) gets Posix accounts

Hi all, I've just set up a Samba 3.0.0 PDC (LDAP+nss) on FreeBSD 5.1, with CUPS as default print stack, which begins to work nicely. I'm configuring a PDF pseudo printer, with the following share : [pdfwriter] comment = Imprimante PDF : g?n?re un fichier PDF printing = bsd path = /var/tmp printable = Yes print command = /usr/local/bin/printpdf -u

Hi, I'm trying to connect to a samba server via an ssh tunnel. I'm running ssh on my W2K machine. If I try to connect from another machine that is running an OS called RiscOS and a NetBIOS client called LanMan98 then it works perfectly, but if I try to connect from the another Windows machine running XP, or from the W2k machine (uisng loopback), I get "Windows cannot find

We are in the process of commissioning a new HP server (on HP-UX 11i) and have installed Samba which we have configured and used extensively before without major problems (though not this version - 2.2.8.a). Samba ran OK initially, but now we are getting failures with messages of 'smbd[pid] Cannot initialize locking database' and 'no locks available' logged to the syslog and no new

Goog morning, First of all, my setup : - Samba 3.0.1pre1 to Samba 3.0.1pre3 (RPM home recompiled from samba.org SRPM); - OpenLDAP 2.0.27 (stock RH9) + Solaris RootDSE patch, all on RH9; - Two LDAP servers (one master, one slave, replication of all the base); - Samba setup as PDC + BDC, using Samba3 LDAP schema. I noticed a few days ago in the NT4 srvtools that the first query (when opening

Hi list, hi John, having seen last week a post (see http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?m=107341768923846) that remind me some quirks I encountered, I'd like to see a preamble added to the chapter 12 of the howto. It concerns the diffent types of admin you will need in a PDC setup. I say preamble, but it could be found anywhere else, as long as it could be found (I have lost long hours
