similar to: Samba as PDC - Can't get user profiles to save properly

Hello, I have two Samba 3.0.22 PDCs and each trust each other. When I add an user of each domain to the permissions of a file on a windows machine (W2k, WXP), it shows for them DOMAIN\USERNAME. Everything is fine. But when i close the permission window and reopen it, then the user out of the trusted domain is only shown as SID. The one of the own domain is resolved fine. This happens on clients

Hi all , I'm running Debian Etch . I just finished configuring SAMBA as PDC to authenticate against LDAP server which works. The system in question uses default debian etch packages. As My Linix/unix accounts can authenticate against it. The LDAP works. I Used the default shipped smbldap-populate script to setup SAMBA. Everything seems to work as Anonymous User or as user

Hello, I have two Samba Domains and each trust each other (PDCs run 3.0.22). Also I have a samba member server (3.0.24) that runs winbind. When I use wbinfo I can see the user and groups of both domains. I also can chown/chgrp files with users of the domain the server is member of. But I can`t chown/chgrp with accounts of the trusted domain. chown doesn`t work at all. chgrp works, but then only

Hi, i've just migrated from nt4 to samba 3.0.10-1.4E.9 with tdbsam, running on Centos 4.4 The net rpc vampire went fairly smoothly.

Greetings, I run an automated process from cron that uploads a large file from my HP/UX server to a PC running Windows 2000 weekly. The process began to fail once the size of the uploaded file gre to over 2GB in size. I've upgraded the Samba 2.2 installation to Samba 3.0.10 but that hasn't fixed the problem.

Hi folks, I'm sure this will be a lame question for you all, but I am not a seasoned Samba admin and the folks I know with more Samba experience than I don't have a solution for me, either. I need to map a large number of domain users to a single unix account. I understand there is a 1024 character limit on lines in smbusers and I'm hitting it. Is there any way around this limit?

Hello, I have two samba domains and I want to let users of each domain connect to shares of each other PDC. As long as I use samba <=3.0.22 it works fine (DOM1\user1 is automatically mapped to DOM2\user2) , but later versions won't (DOM1\user1 is shown as DOM1\user1 on PDC2). How can I do this?

Hello. I have a Folder /shares/Public/ which is shared. The Account "general" should have a separate HomeDir below /shares/Public/general depending on the machine name. So I set the attribute homeDirectory in LDAP to /shares/Public/general/%m (i also tried %M).

I have a Samba server with Windows XP clients, and roaming profiles for every user. At this moment everyone can log onto any workstation, but it shouldn't be like that: there are some workstations where anyone can log into, but three of them should be restricted to some specific users. I thought about making local users for them, but we need all users to have roaming profiles, I can't

Hiya, I'm trying to set up a Samba PDC with an LDAP backend. I experienced problems joining machines to domains, the machine account was created, but Windows said user name cannot be found. I resolved this by adding ldap to /etc/nsswitch.conf, but this has the side effect of allowing ldap users to login to the server via SSH. Whilst I can understand the need for LDAP users to be accessible

Hi, i'm running a samba PDC on samba 3.0 and just had to reinstall the server because of a dead cpu causing corruption. luckily i had complete backups of the samba-files, so i copied them back to /etc/samba, /var/lib/samba and /var/cache samba.
