similar to: logon.bat: switching from smbpasswd to tdbsam

I have a Samba PDC server running on Fedora Core. I also have 3 samba print servers and 1 samba file server setup on RedHat 9 machines. How do I make my RedHat file and print servers to get user information from the PDC so I don't have to set up users on every single server? I appreciate your help!

I was trying to restart my LDAP service and used /etc/init.d/slapd restart, but it said "slapd: unrecognized service." so I tried /etc/init.d ldap restart and it says that restarts the service slapd [ok]. I tried to look for the service on webmin and slapd doesn't even exist. Is the problem on my side or is there a mistake on the Samba-HOWTO-Collection? Ambex

Hey, I just got done setting up a Samba+LDAP PDC using the idealx tools on my fedora core 1 machine. I have created a user named 'testuser1' :uid=1000(testuser1) gid=513(Domain Users) groups=513(Domain Users). As 'testuser1' logs on WIN98 client, it is authenticating 'testuser1' as a 'nobody':(uid=99, gid=99) (pid 19880) As I try to join the domain from XP pro

Hi All, I just added three users to my tdbsam with "pdbedit -a -u username" (had to do "useradd" first). All three appeared in tdbsam as they should, as verified with "pdbedit -L". But, all three also appeared in /etc/samba/smbpasswd. This is not a mistake, they were not there before. Are "tdbsam" and "smbpasswd" linked? I am confused.

All, I have a site with around 200 concurrent users, with a user count of over a thousand... I'm currently using just one PDC using the smbpasswd backend. I currently do not want to go into an LDAP backend... but would tdbsam be a better alternative? One of the issues I have is, pretty randomly, I have some machines that cannot find the domain controller (dell wireless card utility tells you

Hi there, I'm trying to import a smbpasswd-file into a Samba 3.0 installation on Debian Sarge using tdbsam as sole passdb backend.

This message was

Hi, I want to set up squid (2.6.9) with Samba (3.0.24) using NTLM authentication. I don't want to authenticate against an AD server; I just want to authenticate against a smbpasswd backend without sending the password over the network in the clear. The squid server is on the same box a the Samba server providing file/print services to XP workstations. The primary way of using NTLM seems

As some of you may know, I'm trying to set up Samba BDC on a disk- and fan-less tiny mipsel_CPU router running OpenWRT distribution. I already managed to compile Samba 3.0.21a and OpenLDAP 2.3.18 for it, and they seem to work fine. The problem is, this tiny distribution for routers doesn't seem to have anything like Name Service Switch (NSS), and relies solely on /etc/passwd and

Dear my samba friends & Craig (who has been helping me with this issue so far), please help me with this one :) I have a fedora core 1, samba 3.0.5, and openldap 2.1.*, and smbldap-tools 0.8.4.1 When I try to join the domain [AGUILAS] from my XP (winxp), it is quiting half way through the process.
