Hi. I've built an afs cell, a kerberos kdc, an openldap server, all kerberized. Now all linux clients can login on the cell using k5 authentication, finding informations about their home dirs with ldap. Their home reside on the afs cell, which allows r/w access since it releases a token from the k5 ticket. All macosx clients can login as well... but what about windows? ^___^;;;

Hi. I'm trying to find a solution for our windows clients. I will explain my situation. We have kerberos 5 (mit) kdc, openafs without kaserver (authentication using kerberos), openldap, everything on debian stable servers. What do our unix/linux clients do? They authenticate over kerberos (pam), gain tickets and consequently gain the afs token (krb5afs or openafs_session), call ldap and

Hi. A question on a feature that interests me... Can I specify samba to handle the dot files in our linux samba server as hidden files in windows? It's quite ugly seeing all the hidden unix files .* visible on windows... -- Sensei <mailto:senseiwa@tin.it> <pgp:8998A2DB> <icqnum:241572242> <yahoo!:sensei_sen>

Hi. As I said... I will bother you. :) I'm wondering if it's possible to make samba as a primary domain controller without having samba passwords, but instead using my two KDCs (MIT K5). Is it possible? What should I use in my smb.conf? The wonderful and less painful thing is samba authenticating via pam... but I don't know how... the documentation is quite misty. -- Sensei

Hi. Back again... I'm still looking for a possible integration of MIT K5 and AFS through the windows login, so I will ask you a question. A first considerations is that afs+k5 works fine but we have to create a local account with a fake password. The profile will be on the local disk. We can gain tickets and the token necessary to access \\AFS. The problem is: how to avoid a local account?

Hi. I'm trying to build a nt domain with samba 3.0.5 (only samba, no native nt/xp servers), but I cannot succeed. I'm following this http://thegoldenear.org/toolbox/unices/samba/samba-setup.html because I find the samba documentation not so clear. It's for samba 2, but it must be similar to samba 3... This is what I did: quantum home # groupadd -g 2000 admins quantum home # groupadd

Hi! I have a problem with roaming profiles which I don't understand. I can login and logout from XP with a samba PDC with ldapsam flawlessly, but for some reasons when the profile does not belong to the user itself windows tells me upon logout that it cannot copy back some files to the server. Weird, because the directory where the profile resides is readable and writable by the user,

Hi. In few weeks I'm planning to set up a windows network over our departmental net. I need some advices, suggestions about what you would do. We're in front of a large network. I'm expecting having 50+ + computers logging in the windows domain, many different users. Servers will be just unix (linux mainly, and aix/bsd for experiments only) The underlying structure is really

Hi everybody! I'm a samba rookie, and I'm trying to make my own roaming profiles. The situation is simple, a single debian samba server and a single windows xp client, with the signorseal value set to 0. I have my unix users with their home directories in /home/username, and I'd like them to have a windows login. Right now I don't care about mixing unix and windows

Dear all, I am trying to move a project from Linux to OSX, with bad results at my first attempt. First, I am using LLVM 3.2, the latest version, compiled from sources (configured with just the install prefix, vanilla for other options). By the way, I found it annoying to reinstall LLVM, I expected a complete and working LLVM environment with Apple's move to CLANG, but maybe I didn't

I've been searching and researching this and I can't seem to find the answers I'm looking for. I'd like to setup a Samba PDC that Windows clients will join. The PDC will use an LDAP backend to get authorization information (username, home directory, etc). The authentication portion is handled by an MIT Kerberos KDC. I think I'm real close to having it all together but I'm

I have a form with contingent select boxes (the state is contingent on the country selected, so when the country selected changes, the state changes -- I am using the Carmen plugin for getting my state names and country names together, but not the functionality I am interested in achieving). Everything works fine except I cannot figure out how to amend my code such that: A. When the form is first

Hi. I have an existing departmental network based on AFS, Kerberos 5 and LDAP. All unixes work nicely, logging in remotely. So, Samba acting as a PDC with OpenLDAP. Now I'd like to interoperate with all windows workstations. I chose the LDAP way, since it's the most flexible and secure way... or at least, it seems to me more flexible than using a single /etc/passwd file on a

Hello, I''ve come across an issue that I''m sure is a bug when using after_create with a has_one association, but I''m not 100% certain if I''m missing something. This is pretty much exactly the code I''m using. Two simple classes (Account and Contact) and I create the contact after I create an account (via after_create). I''m not passing in a
