Hello, I've been trying for a couple of weeks now to get Samba to authenticate via Winbind to an NT domain. I've scoured Google and the mailing lists to no avail. I've tried various configurations that I've found during my searches, but none of them have worked for me. I need to be able to authenticate users, that do not have an account on the Linux box, against the NT domain,

Is there any way to enable both local (/etc/passwd or smbpasswd) users and users authenticated remotely by winbindd? I have a problem with samba-3.0.2a not recognizing local users at all, if winbindd is enabled (and vice versa, of course). However, I'd like to have local users take precedence over networked users, i.e. samba would let in a user, if he/she is a local one and only ask the

I asked this question a while ago, but never got any response. Since then, I've researched the problem some more, so I can give a much more concise description of what's happening. I'm mounting the home directories of the users upon login (using pam_mount) from the Windows server. However, none of the users can run X Windows. It says there's a problem with the .Xauthority file.

Hello, I am attempting to add a Redhat 9 box to our NT4 domain as a member server. I want to enumerate user and group info so I don't have to make two sets of user and group accounts. I've setup samba (version 2.2.7a) and pamd the way I think I'm supposed to, but wbinfo -u always returns 0xc0000022. I've found this particular error mentioned in a few articles, but applying the

I have a samba 3.0.2a -server running Linux, which I try to set up to authenticate users from a NT4 PDC using winbindd. Now, everything works to the point, where I try to list users with "getent passwd". Getent only gets the local unix-users and has no clue about the NT4 -users. Also, home directories for the NT4 -users are not created and no logs whatsoever are left behind by the

Hi all, Is there any way to automatically update the samba password when a user changes his unix account password using the passwd command. I want samba to look in passwd file for authentication. I dont want to create two accounts one for local unix and then for the samba. I am not planning to deploy ldap as a solution. Is there any workaround. Anish

I had samba working, then I tried (unsuccessfully) to setup ssh pam auth. Now users are prompted for a password when accessing shares, but no password works. I am using Redhat AS 3, samba-3.0.9-1, and krb5-1.3. I forgot to backup pam file system-auth before modifying things, so I'm not sure if that is the problem. ------------------------------- These commands succeed: wbinfo -u,

Hello, I am having a small issue with LDAP, and I hope someone here might be able to provide a few tips.

Hello, Please forgive me if this has been discussed, I did not find any references when I searched. I'm trying to replace a W2K server with a samba member server in a single ADS domain. It seems that the Fedora rpms do not support idmap_rid so I am trying to compile from the Fedora SRPM. After following the docs for building and configuring idmap_rid I get no ADS users from `getent

Hello, I'm trying to configure Samba to work with SuSE 9.1. I followed The Linux Samba-OpenLDAP Howto (Revision: 1.6 ) from http://samba.idealx.org/smbldap-howto.en.html - but I'm stuck - in SuSE there is no /etc/pam.d/system-auth. Should I just add this file (I doubt it), or put these values into another files (which ones)? auth required /lib/security/pam_env.so auth

Hi all I have set my Samba server up to join an AD realm. Winbind is working fine and I am able to use it for authentication as needed. When I try to connect to one of my shares via a Windows client, I get the following error: [2004/11/04 11:57:54, 0] auth/pampass.c:smb_pam_account(573) smb_pam_account: PAM: UNKNOWN PAM ERROR (9) during Account Management for User: MYDOMAIN+room1 [2004/11/04

Hi, I have searched all over and I am at a deep loss. I have Openldap setup and it works fine holding users and is searchable, etc. I have samba setup to auth via LDAP and it works. I can NOT for the life of me get system password stuff to work. The strange thing is, that my "testuser" can telnet to the computer and login and can login with samba fine. I can not ssh into the

Hello, I have gone through the howto provided but I am not yet able to logon to my linux box using NT4 domain accounts. I can however authenticate to restricted shares and I can obtain groups and users via "getent" and "wbinfo -u". All I really need now is a working /etc/pam.d/login. I've tried examples from the howto as with others from the mailing list but I can not

Hi all, I just upgraded more servers, and doing some tests I found that my setup for kerberos/ldap authentication against Active Directory is no more working. I don't know why... I followed some times ago scott Lowe blog for this setup : http://blog.scottlowe.org/2007/01/15/linux-ad-integration-version-4/ And it was working correctly until the upgrade. What is curious is that id command

Hello, I want to do a single signon setup with samba/winbind and a windows2003 SBS. I have nearly everything up and running. wbinfo gives what I expected. When I try to sign on (su) with a windows account the follwoing happens: # su dkhan su: Authentication service cannot retrieve authentication info. (Ignored) So it recognizes me as windows account and pam somehow tries to authenticate the

Hello folks, Been beating my head with an winbind and pam just behaving oddly. I have following various HOW-TO's, wiki's, and docs, and just can't seem to get past a wall. Here a some of the issues: - the 1st attempt at ssh'ing to a server gives me a 'Wrong Password' in the logs. Here's an exact snippet: Aug 6 18:45:40 mia21654bcu001 sshd[5371]: pam_winbind(sshd):

Hi, I have some databases running on CentOS4 with users accessing the shell (bash), so I'd like to strong the security on my server in user's accounts and passwords..

Hello all, I've installed samba-3.0.1 on a linux machine that has a role of domainmember in an NT domain. What I would like is that there would be nothing to do on the linux machine when adding a user in teh NT domain. For that I have started and configured winbind that works fine. But I want to create a share for each user on the NT domain. I have in my smb.conf a [homes] share, but when a
