similar to: Enabling account lockouts

According to the documentation, Samba 3 supports account lockouts (ie: bad password attempt 5 times will result in the PDC returning an NT_STATUS_ACCOUNT_LOCKED_OUT message, until the account is manually reset with pdbedit). This syntax I'm using appears to be correct, but I'm not actually getting actual account lockouts: pdbedit -P "bad lockout attempt" -C 5 - and - pdbedit -P

I recently am migrating my PDC from NT4 to Samba 3.025. Apparently due to a mismatch between the capitalization of the Windows account and the Unix account (Administrator vs administrator) I managed to lock the account before catching the discrepenacy. # pdbedit -v administrator Unix username: Administrator NT username: Administrator Account Flags: [ULX Bad password count

Hi, I'm trying to track random account lockouts on the domain. Is there any recommendations for log level or log handling that let me see what machines/servers are locking the account? I'm using samba 4.5.5. as a DC (3 DCs). My current logging settings are: logging = syslog log level = 1 auth:5 passdb:5 winbind:5 Att, Vinicius

Hi, im trying to setup a password policy with samba and openldap. while lockout works perfect on openldap it looks like it does not work with my samba. Ive set "sambaLockoutThreshold" to 3 and "sambaLockoutDuration" to -1 (lockout forever) within the Domain-Object in LDAP. So i expect whenever a windows user does 3 false logon attemps his samba account will be LOCKED

Using Samba 3.0.14a with multiple domain controllers across WAN links I discovered that account lockout policies are broke. My testing show's that account lockout policies are not stored in LDAP as one would think but in a local TDB file on that particular BDC or PDC. The result is I'm seeing errors in my logs and users are getting locked out. There appears to be no replication setup

Hello, I have a samba 4.1.5. I have created OUs and linked GPO to OU for account lockout policies.

First of all, I want to say I have been using Samba AD for two years now (since just before 4.0 went stable), and it is an amazing product. We've implemented Active Directory & Group Policy for almost 50 computers and 100 users. Unfortunately, we are now being forced into switching to Windows DCs because Samba does not have an account lockout feature. Citrix (stupidly) does not have

Hi there, we have a few SuSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 11 SP1 machines with Samba 3.4.3 joined to Windows Server 2003 domain. The domain has some strict password policies, like limited password tries before account is locked for a few minutes. It works fine when doing online authentication against the domain controllers. The problem rises with cached offline logon. Offline logon works,

Help!! I have been using tbdsam as a backend and I have been unable to get the pdbedit -P "bad lockout attempt" -C 3 to be enforced. When I set the attribute it seems that I can try to login as many times as I want. Any help out there? Terrance

Hello all, We are troubleshooting an issue that when SAMBA is joined to a Windows domain controller as a member server that has password failure lockouts configured, the Windows security auditing does not show the "Caller Computer Name" in the event ID generated (4740). We are using Samba 4.6.2 from CentOS 7. We posted a Bugzilla at Red Hat here:

Hi all, My boss is still questioning me for an answer. I've searched thru this archive thru the beginning of the year as well as searched thru Google, but still haven't found the answer to the this question.. Is there a way in Samba to automatically disable/lockout an account if the user has tried to signon more than a set number incorrectly? As an example: if JDOE tries to sign into

Hello I know there is a domain account lockout feature at: http://git.samba.org/?p=abartlet/samba.git/.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/s4-bwdPwdCount-01 A malicious user can type in incorrect password of any domain users. Then these users will be lockout (automatically or manually) in short time. Do we have any tools (equivalent to Event Viewer on Windows Server) for monitoring these actions

Hi guys, I am so thrilled by samba 4 it makes me go to bed smiling J Here is my setup. Server ************ Centos 6.5 Samba 4.1.4 Clients ************* Windows XP, 7 & 8 Question: Is account lockout supported with samba4 ? I cannot seem to get the users accounts to lock when they type their passwords incorrectly. The rest of my GPO's work. Folder redirects work

I can do some playing around: a) I have set a GPO for lockout at '10' invalid attempts (the rest of the password options set as on Samba DC), forced the 'gpupdate', and left the Samba rules set to '5' (checked on both DCs). But still I get locked out after 3 invalid attempts. b) I have set the Samba rules to '10' (or '15') invalid attempts and get

Hi All, I have setup samba 4.3.9-Ubuntu AD DC, I want to setup password policy and account lockout policy to all my domain users. How I can do that.

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

When a user tries logging in and enters the wrong password a few times in a row, their account becomes disabled. Is there a way to prevent this behavior? I couldn't find anything in the smb.conf man page about it. Alternatively, could we use a preexec script to just re-enable all accounts when there's a logon attempt? Or does that script only get executed after a user is authenticated?

First off, I apologize if this is a duplicate - I had some issues with the first email I tried to join this list with! I'm currently using samba4 as an AD DC (domain and forest are both configured with the samba-tool command to be at the 2008_R2 functional level) for both Windows and Linux systems. I've got the default password settings set using the "samba-tool domain
