I'm having quite a bit of trouble getting an LDAP directory set up for the idmap backend for winbind. I've been working on it for quite a while, and haven't found any very helpful websites or anything. I've found quite a bit on how to set up a PDC using LDAP, which would be nice, but I already have the PDC... I just need LDAP to host UID's and GID's. The things I'd like

Hello, have some little problems adding user to domain with USRMGR.EXE My System runs on SuSE 9.1 (2.6.5-7.75-default), samba-3.0.4, smbldap-tools-0.8.5, openldap2-2.2.6 If I try to add a new user with USRMGR.EXE I get an error "Access denied", but if I look into LDAP the new user was correctly added to LDAP. If I confirm the error-message and then cancel the "NEW USER"

passdb appears a lot of times in smba logs, even if it uses LDAP as a backend, as in my config. Maybe the log message should be changed in the code for something easier to debug... But this error message you said, only appears if you try to add or delete the user twice from LDAP, so you should remove "-a" from the add user script and comment out the user delete script if you intend to

Hi @all, I have some question I can't find a explanation. I have a standalone Samba3 as PDC. It works perfect with LDAP. Now I want to implement Policies. 1) Is it possible to use GPO from ads ? And if so, where to store this policies. 2) Or can I only use policies created with poledit from NT4 which should be stored in NETLOGON. Any help or links about this would be apreciated.

I've been trying to get an idmap backend working in an ldap database (I know, not really a database). I think I got most it worked out, but I'm having a problem getting samba to bind to the ldap server. My smb.conf says (just the important stuff, with my domain taken out because I'm paranoid): idmap backend = ldap:ldap://ldapserver.subdomain.domain.com:389 ldap suffix =

Hi everyone, I know this one has been addressed before. I have had so much trouble getting the IDEALX scripts to work that I set about writing my own and they almost work. The trouble is with the add machine script. The first time I do the join, I get an access denied error message on WinXP. I have verified that an entry for the machine was successfully created in ldap. Then, I try again

I had a test machine up and running Samba, joining an AD domain, and set up with winbind... when I ran "getent passwd" it would list all the local users, and all the domain users. I could also log in as a domain user without any problem. So, I made an image of the hard drive, and copied it to 7 other machines. Now, those 7 are having a strange problem. I changed the names and IP's of

I have a Samba 3 server, and a client with Samba 3. The server has a share for home directories, and the client is trying to mount it, but after it's mounted, I still can't create any symbolic links. Also, the GUI login (Red Hat Enterprise default) isn't working, but I think that's just a symptom of the symbolic and hard links not working. Any idea why, when I enable unix

Thanks everyone for helping me get the home directories working over SMB, especially Ben Ford for his workaround for the Xauth and GDM. Now I've got a problem that, most likely, nobody's ever noticed before... or is something specific to me. I've got a Linux client, and a Samba server, and a Windows 2000 server, both set up EXACTLY the same. I've got a test user and the home

I've got an interesting problem that I'll try to detail here as best I can. My Setup: We've got a W2K domain with 2 W2K DC's and a Samba member server that hosts the shares, including home directories. We've got both Linux and Windows clients (2000 & XP). For reference, the samba server will be named "SAMBA" and the Windows PDC will be named "PDC".

I saw a message on this mailing list about compiling the idmap_ad.c, back in October of last year... and I'm having the same problem... When I try to compile it, the message I get is: gcc -I/usr/include/linux -I/root/samba/samba-3.0.4/source/ubiqx -I/root/samba/samba-3.0.4/source/popt -I/root/samba/samba-3.0.4/source/smbwrapper -I/root/samba/samba-3.0.4/source

I'm having a problem when I try to mount a CIFS share on a Samba 3.0.5 server from a Samba 3.0.2 workstation. When I type: mount -t smbfs //ip-address/share /mnt/point -o username=username,domain=DOMAIN It mounts, and I get no errors whatsoever. I can do almost anything I want (except for symbolic links and hard links, which is why I want CIFS). When I type the exact same thing, but change

I'm trying to set up Winbind to store all the UID's in a local LDAP database, but am having some trouble. I think I got most of it set up, but when I run "getent passwd", I get several hundred errors like this: [2004/07/13 11:59:03, 3] sam/idmap_ldap.c:ldap_get_id_from_sid(588) ldap_get_id_from_sid: Failure looking up idmap entry (No such object) [2004/07/13 11:59:03, 1]

Hi all, I've setup Samba 3.0.5 + OpenLDAP (ldapsam) and everything work correctly. However, while my Windows 200x workstation join the domain, I need to join it twice. Here is what I do: 1. Go to Computer properties -> Computer Name -> Change 2. Enter the new domain name 3. Enter Administrator and password then, it will return me that the user name cannot be found. I've checked

Hi all, I have a openldap server setup with netsted netgruops,. Say the netgroups are: ngA: (host1, -, - ), (host2, -, - ) ngB: ngA, (host3, - - ) ngc: ngB, (host4, -, -) Is there a way to find host1's membership? so that I can return: ngA, ngB, ngC? Thanks a lot. --Rob

I have a feeling I may have lost focus on the issue in some of my previous messages... so here's my dilemma. I have several Windows (2000 and XP) clients, and several Linux (Red Hat Enterprise 3, 2.4.21 kernel) clients. I've got a couple servers, one is currently Windows 2000 Server, and one is Linux (same as above, with the snapshot Samba running). I want to be able to have users log

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.

I have a SAMBA Server utilizing an LDAP backend for user authentication and it works great unless I use ClearCase. When ClearCase is used the compilation time for our code is slowed down to a crawl and the ClearCase application is rendered nearly useless. As a test fix my boss wants me to create a second SAMBA server to be used for only the ClearCase server. I don't know if this will work,

Is all of your authentication vs an actual Active Directory server, separate from the LDAP server? Also, what type of LDAP server (OpenLDAP? FreeIPA? Other?) and is the LDAP server also Debian? -- Shannon From: Morgan, Andrew J <morgan at oregonstate.edu> Sent: Wednesday, May 14, 2025 4:40 PM To: Shannon Price <pricesw at auburn.edu>; samba at lists.samba.org Subject: Re: [Samba]
