similar to: Auto-remove home-directories from Active Directory?

Hi, I'm running samba 3.0.2a as a windows domain MEMBER, security=ADS. Just installed winbind last week it it looks great. I noticed that it is possible to set a homedir_template for winbind; however winbind has no option to create this directory on the fly (and populate it with .profile etc). I found the code for pam_mkhomedir to have pam session create the homedirectory when a session

Hi, I have installed samba 3.5.4 on Centos 6 and have set it up to authenticate to a Windows 2008 Domain Controller. When I do a "su - some-domain-user", the home directory gets created. However, I want the home directory to be created when a user accesses the samba shares(no shell access). Following are the relevant configurations. What are the PAM changes I need to make? Help is much

now that all permissions are right - if i create a new user on the win 2003 active directory and specify a home user under profile i will get " the home folder could not be created because: the network name cannot be found" I know for sure I am getting that error because the user home folder doesn't exist yet on the samba machine - is there any way to get the user home created

Hi everybody, we using our centos server with vsftpd and windbind. our users can log on via ftp on the centos server by using their windows-ad-domain-accounts. That's working fine. But vsftpd doesn't auto create user home dirs, if the user connects the first time to the system. Anybody some suggestions why? Our configuration in the /etc/pam.d/vsftp: session

I hope all is well with everyone. I've got sometime a little strange going on. I'm running RHEL 6 and SMB Version 3.5.6-86.el6. I am using Samba so that my Windows users can mount a home directory share to their Windows machine, with my Linux/Samba server and the storage point, and their account is validated against out campus AD servers. The issue I am having is that the share fails

Hi I have been trying to allow all domain users to log onto a Ubuntu client that is joined to a Samba 4 domain, and have that basic functionality. However, this does not give each domain user their own home directory, even when using pam_mkhomedir.so, because the home directory, returned by getpwnam, is the root directory. I am now stuck, so would be grateful for any guidance. I have used

Hey guys, I've setup an LDAP server on our network. I'm using OpenLDAP. It was really easy to use the authconfig-tui to generate the nsswitch.conf and ldap.conf files that would allow user authentication. But when users would log in, the system wasn't creating the home directories. I found one command that would correct that: authconfig --enablemkhomedir --update After that

You may also need to restart sssd or nslcd, depending upon which one is running the backed ldap connection service on the clients.

Hello list, I have a problem with Samba and automatic creation of user home directories. There is a Win2008R2 AD and Samba are successfully joined to domain. Samba is running on CentOS 6.3 32-bit. Domain users can access Samba without problems. We decided to use home directories and mount them as network H: disk, so user can store it's data there. The problem is that WinXP users after

I have a samba server set so that each user in a windows 2003 active directory can have their own personal, private share. I would like to know how to set up Samba so that their directory is created automatically, rather than me creating 1300 directories on the linux server. I cannot use pam_mkhomedir.so because 'security = ads' in smb.conf and 'encryption = yes' must be

Check /var/log/secure for why the directory is not able to be created. Might be selinux, is that enabled?

Greetings, Trying to find a solution to creating home directories by using winbind. Have this setup: /etc/pam.d/system-auth: session required /lib/security/pam_mkhomedir.so skel=/etc/skel/ umask=0077 With smb.conf: # Global parameters [global] workgroup = domain server string = Monarch Server security = DOMAIN map to guest = Bad User obey pam

I have a Suse 9.1 Enterprise Server connected to our Windows 2003 Active Directory Domain for use a file server, housing peoples home(backup) directories. The Suse box is connected to AD with winbind and it's connected fine. The problem is that when I create a user on the windows box it's not creating a home directory in Linux. It says I don't have create access on the server when I

Hi List, I just installed Samba 2.2.8a in a RedHat 7.2, I configured it as a domain member using Winbind and everything worked fine. I can list my users in the domain and the groups too, I can do a telnet connection using the domain users and I can map a shared folder from windows but the main problem is this: When I look for the computer in the network neighborhood I can see the user home

Hello, today I tried to auth users against winnt-pdc. I set up winbind and can login via DOMAIN+USER locally (debian), BUT login always promts: "No directory, logging in with HOME=/" Can't fix this. Here's my configuration: --- smb.conf --- workgroup = <WORKGROUP> winbind separator = + winbind cache time = 10 template shell = /bin/bash template homedir =

I've added the pam changes that use winbind to authenticate users against the domain controller. I see all of the domain users in the graphical login, but when a user logs in who hasn't logged in before, the new home directory (/etc/DOMAIN/<userid>) isn't either being created or it's being created with permissions that don't allow files to be written under the user id.

Hello, I have configured a Nagios server to be part of a Windows 2003 domain. The Linux server is RedHat 5.3 with winbind version 3.0.22. The configuration is using kerberos and pam with winbind to support Windows user and local account. Everything is working fine until we test the active directory failover. The system is still accessible through domain account but it's very slow and the
