Hello, I?m currently having a problem where a non-root user can?t change his/her own password using smbpasswd command after the password expiration and would like to know how I could solve this problem.

I have been having some problems since I updated from Samba 3.0.23 to 3.0.25b. I have installed the latest version of smbldap-tools but I am still not able to make certain changes to a user's account. I have created a new user named JROLFE. After I set up a new user, I will set it so they are required to change their password when they first login. I usually do this through LDAP Account

I hope someone give me a clue to what is happening here. This is a new installation. I can add users to samba with no problems but I can't delete them from the ldap db using smbpasswd -x <username> nor via pdbedit -x -u <username> The ldap entry looks like this - # dn: uid=tester,ou=People,dc=mycompany,dc=com uid: tester sambaSID: S-1-5-21-118495222-1838158642-270368766-2026

Hi, Samba-3 with LDAP backend is capable in this. I'm using it and it works. All you have to do, is to use LDAP and set proper account policies: $ pdbedit -P "bad lockout attempt" -C 5 (after 5 wrong password, user account will be locked out - samba sets password hashes to ***NOPASSWORD*** and user is unable to logon). $ pdbedit -P "min password length" -C 9 # password

Greetings. I have just upgraded to samba 3.0.25a (from 3.0.24 AFAIR). I have also upgraded schema file in openldap's configuration directory. As I have had some more time I have discovered sambaMaxPwdAge and that it may be read with pdbedit in human readable form. Great :-) But what if I would like to force a user to change her password right at next login? I have tried to set

Hi, I'm running openldap and samba3.0.1 from my debian system, but I have used many many hours trying to get samba to validate users on the ldap... And is now turning to the last resort ...

Friends, I am having a very strange problem that I can't debug. Please help. I am using ldapsam which was working fine last night. Today without having done anything, I cannot login.

Hello everyone, I am operating a migration of samba from 3.0.24 (mysql passdb backend) to 3.5.6 (openldap passdb), samba working as a domain controller (PDC) and file share. The main challenge is to provide a seamless migration for users. For this new version, I am using smbldap-tools 0.9.6, nss_ldap, openldap 2.4. Everything run on FreeBSD 8.2. To get used to samba, I have managed to make

Hello, I've seen other folks posting with this problem, but I think my issue is a bit different (thus the super long subject). The environment is Solaris 9 09/05, running Samba 3.0.22/Sun DS 5.2/idealx scripts 0.9.1, but I can translate openldap/linux/samba-ese if you think of a solution that would apply in that environment. Anyway - my core problem is an inability to add machine accounts

Hey Samba list, First a brief comment regarding my background and situation. This is my first time posting to this list.

Unfortunately no one else here knows how to use it either; we're operating with an inherited environment from a sysadmin who left minimal documentation, and we have
