If I have a Samba server that is part of a Windows 2000 domain and is not a domain controller (all of our authentication goes against a Windows 2000 box), do I need to upgrade to 3.0.4/2.2.9? What is the interaction between a Samba server that is part of a domain and the Windows client if all of the authentication is being done against a Windows 2000 PDC?

Hi folks, For the longest time, I've had a problem changing or modifying ACLs from my window clients. Whenever I tried, I'd get this in the logs: [2004/07/29 12:36:26, 0] smbd/posix_acls.c:create_canon_ace_lists(823) create_canon_ace_lists: unable to map SID S-1-5-21-1292428093-651377827-xxxxxxxxx-1333 to uid or gid. I could change the ACLs using getfacl/setfacl, btw. After a

Hi list I have a strange problem with my Samba 3.04 server running on redhat 9 with 2.4.24 kernel (with acl patch from acl.bestbits.at applied to it). Acls are working fine on my system, and my server is working fine as a Samba PDC (or so it seems). I can view and modify any permissions on the existing files that are being shared. If setfacl has been used to grant additional users

Hi, I have to edit all my samba users password expiration time and users full names. (I changed from samba 2.2 to 3.0 today.)

Hi everybody, I have a Samba 3.0.4 PDC configured on my network. Previously, there was a Windows NT 4 PDC, that was migrated to my Samba / OpenLDAP configuration. Everything is working fine, except our ISA Server. Indeed, ISA Server was previously configured to let users that belong to the "Internet Access" group to surf. During the migration phase, we did not change anything.

Hello, everyone, This is the situation : We have 2 sites; one domain; 2 samba's on every site; one is PDC, the other is BDC. They both use LDAP; the LDAP has a master on the site where the PDC is; the slave LDAP is on the site where the BDC is. There is a user (ONE to be precise) that gives problems when working on a specific machine. When the user logs in using his machine; he

Greetings! It is premature for me to send out a "success procedure for migration" yesterday. I overlooked things and I appologize for to this group. Anyway, after migration, computers, users, groups are all created and filled up with the correct membership. However, I still have the same problem with machine password and user password. Further looking into the detail, it looks

Hi, when starting samba it logs the following text to /var/log/messages, although I have added syslog only = no and syslog = 1. Samba's log file is /var/log/samba... How can I disable logging to syslog? Thanks!

Hi every body, As you may have guessed, I've got a problem ;) What I had : - A PDC Server (Windows NT 4 SP 6a), called SERVER1, for the domain TEST - A BDC Server (Windows NT 4 SP 6a), called SERVER2, for the domain TEST Everything was working fine. Now I switched my NT PDC to a Samba PDC, and I make SERVER1 a BDC for the domain. Until now, no problem. I use samba 3.0.4,

I've upgraded my system at Samba 3.0.20 (SLES 8) bacause of some errors on winbind and Windows 2003. Now, usrmgr.exe doesn't work anymore.

USRMGR has been working for 3 years; I've made all upgrades on Windows 2000, but the results it's the same. Any Idea? uz.

Hi, I have serious problems to manage oplocks on Samba Share.

No, isn't. but you have to try; 'cos, in my opinion, of course, you won't login in bdc; but, the roaming profiles (home directory) must be in pdc; if that works, you will try set (in bdc): logon path = \\PDC\blablabla...

I've had a problem since I had installed samba with ldap support. It's impossible deleting and managing [ex.: add user to a group] the user; only with smbldap-tools.

Hi folks, We just had a problem with our samba server here in the office. I upgraded our file server from Debian wheezy (samba 3.6) to Debian jessie (samba 4.1) but this broke Samba and I struggled for a day or so to figure out why. Searching for answers online found lots of cases of similar problems but nothing jumping out as a relevant solution. This is my global config section [global]

Are you sure of that ? I thought it was possible... If it is not, I've got another slightly off topic question : how to I demote my former Windows NT PDC (that is now a BDC) to a normal Windows NT server, so that I have no problem with it ?

Hi. Today I upgraded samba from 3.0.34 to 3.4.4 without changing anything in smb.conf but with changing local and domain sid: old samba 1) net getdomainsid and getlocalsid new samba 2) net setdomainsid and setlocalsid to ones (both the same) from 1) after restarting samba I can't log into domain: XP says : domain controller unavailable ... I tried to rejoin domain - and I can ;) however

I am trying to change the localSID for a SAMBA server, however I am unable to. I have tried the command "net setlocalsid" to no avail. To troubleshoot I have also stopped the smbd and nmbd services, but this did not help. Any help would be great! root at TheWiggle:~# net getlocalsid SID for domain THEWIGGLE is: S-1-5-21-748580849-194208185-3916830000 root at TheWiggle:~# net
