Hi, Before Samba 3.0.0 RC4 I was running Samba 3.0.0 beta3, and when I upgraded to RC4, I began having problems with group mappings. I didn't notice at first, because on my laptop I don't normally log on to the domain. I just noticed when I tried to use my desktop and log on to the domain... I don't have Domain Admin privileges. So, I look at 'net groupmap list' ... and it

How do I establish both a user's primary NTgroup and Unixgroup when creating a new user? Depending on the tool, I can set his NTgroup or his Unix group, but I don't seem to be able to establish both with one tool. I'm having a little difficulty with creating users with the proper groups. My login scripts are based on the user's primary group. When I create a new user with

Hello Is here anybody who is able to manage his NT4.0 domain on hid Samba 3 PDC with User Manager for Domains?

Hello everybody. I have noted a strange problem when using Usrmgr.exe (from srvtools). The problem arise when a net groupmap is done on a group for which a user exist with the same name that the specified unixgroup. For example, lets say that I have the following UNIX user and group create on my Samba server : joe (in /etc/group) joe (in /etc/passwd) Now I create the following map : net

I do think its a classic upgrade from 3.x to 4.x that causes this. And the samba 3 was a samba with smbldap-tools or configured with something like : net groupmap add ntgroup="Domain Admins" unixgroup=domadm rid=512 type=d ( as shown here https://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/groupmapping.html ) > -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- > Van: samba

I have compiled Samba 3.0.22 on Solaris 10 (sparc.) It has been configured as a PDC with a domain of, say, "SAMBADOMAIN." It has some predefined group mappings for the Administrators and "Domain Admins" group. These mappings were dropped in later versions of Samba. (I have been working with 3.0.24 as well. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to play nice with

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.

Well, my Samba 3.0.4 is joined to a w2k AD and works fairly well so far, as it's not in a production environment yet. I am now testing it for such a release and have encountered a permission problem. Unless I chmod -R 777 the Samba share directroy, users can only read files on the share, including the ADS users in Domain Admins. Reading the Samba online manual, I figured the groupmap

If you do it in reverse
