I'm having trouble using pdbedit to add user to a tdbsam database. I'm running Redhat Enterprise Linux ES 3.0, with the stock version of samba. I'm not sure why it won't let me add users. I tried it with smbpasswd and that didn't work either. Anyway here's a plethora of information: [root@samba root]# pdbedit -a -u root -d 10 INFO: Current debug levels: all: True/10

I have my samba box running as a PDC. When users login to the domain, it takes a long time (3-5 minutes). I gets to the section 'Loading Personel Settings...' and just sits there for several minutes. I've also noticed that the login.bat script only works for root, and all that does is net use h: \\samba\homes. Here's my smb.conf file. Any help would be appreciated. [global]

In the planning process for migrating from NT4 PDC, and external ldap directory to samba 3.2.8 PDC. The external existing openldap directory is used currently to support the local uid mapping for the Linux logins and samba file servers that are members of the current NT4 PDC. While looking at the existing openldap UIDs and GIDs in use and what the samba PDC wants to use I see some uid/gid

Hello list First and foremost to any developers listening - thank you for Samba - it is just brilliant. Apologies - this is a long post... I am not getting complaints about logon problems from users but I have noticed in /var/log/httpd/error_log, entries like the following for a few users when their logon scripts map drives to shares. Looking back I can see that it has been

How much fun can you have with a simple thing like powerpath? Here''s the story: I have a (remote) system with access to a couple of EMC LUNs. Originally, I set it up with mpxio and created a simple zpool containing the two LUNs. It''s now been reconfigured to use powerpath instead of mpxio. My problem is that I can''t import the pool. I get: pool: ###### id:

We have a client-server puppetmaster running puppetd and puppetmasterd, however I would like to test configurations locally before committing the changes on the puppetmaster. Running the puppet config locally with /usr/bin/puppet mostly works. The thing that fails ( which I have commented out on my local copy to test everything else ) is a erb template for puppet.conf that includes:

Good day, I'm running some tests with Samba 3.0.1pre3 with an LDAP sam. LDAP has been, to the best of my abilities, properly populated with the needed group mappings. The "net groupmap list" command indeed shows the following: [root@box bin]# ./net groupmap list Domain Admins (S-1-5-21-2009448231-1530593524-1969381020-512) -> domadm Domain Users

Thank you Rowland and everyone else for your responses. I now understand the two options here - it appears that I have been implementing the first one since I had previously assigned UID to DOM\administrator via RFC2307. I have narrowed down the issue a little bit to exactly what it is that I still do not understand. Since I have assigned the UID to the domain admin account, this

Hey, so i finally got it working thanks to your list (found the right place for EnablePlainTextPassword here, the existing 3-4 matches in the default registry don't seem to do a thing). It was all brilliant. I got connected to all my 4 samba servers. I was happy... 'til the next boot (you know, during installation of system, boots happen). Now it connects to 3 sambas (1 on FreeBSD, 1 on
