similar to: Upgrading a Samba Domain

I am trying to upgrade our fully functional Samba domain from v3.0.2 to v3.0.7 or v3.0.8. My question is, do I have to upgrade every server in the domain in order for it to work or should I be able to upgrade one server at a time, test it, and move on to the next server? Or should I upgrade the domain controller first, then upgrade the member servers one at a time? I've tried to upgrade

I was able to resolve this issue. Just in case anyone is interested, I HAD to upgrade the PDC FIRST. Then I was able to upgrade the member servers without problems. ********************************************************* I am trying to upgrade our fully functional Samba domain from v3.0.2 to v3.0.7 or v3.0.8.

Earlier this year I upgraded all of our Unix Solaris servers from Samba v2.2.8 w/no domain to Samba v3.0.2 w/one domain. I have been adding Windows 2000 and Windows XP workstations to the domain. Everything has been working fine. I run the winbindd daemon but do not have winbind "configured" in any other way other than these few entries in the global section of the smb.conf files on

I recently downloaded and installed v3.0.8 and installed it on HP-UX 11.11. Thankfully, all of the compile problems I reported in 3.0.2 are now gone (not sure why no one ever acknowledged my bug, but whatever). However, now my system is complaining that TCP_NODELAY is not a valid option. I did not turn it off during the compile, don't see it listed as an option, and worse than that, it is

Hi, I am running Samba 3.6.19 and making my way through all the Active Directory documentation. I have joined various Linux boxes to a Windows Server 2008 R2 Active Directory domain. Windows 7 users who log on with their domain accounts can mount the correct shares exported by the Linux boxes without having to supply any additional credentials. All working perfectly! However, I have a

I just successfully upgraded a server from v 2.2.8 to v3.0.7. When I execute smbstatus or swat it correctly shows v 3.0.7. When I browse thru network neighborhood it still shows v 2.2.8. I stopped samba, and removed /usr/local/samba/var/locks/browse.dat & wins.dat. Then restarted samba. It still reports v2.2.8 thru network neighborhood. In viewing browse.dat it shows 2.2.8. Where is this

At a new account where they run Samba 3.0.14a on a Debian server I'm seeing log files being created for both the hostname and the IP address. The log files, however, are not identical. But the timestamps are close. None of my installations have this quirk. If the hostname is resolvable the log is made using it, if not resolvable then the log is made with the IP address but not both. Any

Please advise on rsync usage. --delete doesn?t work without recursion(--recursion). The recursion is causing huge overheads for me. My directory trees are huge. Any suggestions through which I can cut overheads. It used to work well in rsync-v2.5.5 /opt/rsync-v2.5.5/bin/rsync --delete --checksum -lptgoD --rsync-path=/opt/rsync-v2.5.5/bin/rsync --hard-links --timeout=5184000 --exclude=.snapshot

Good Morning! We got in some troubles using trusted domains and winbind. First i will tell you something about the network and samba configuration. For our SMB Environment we use Samba 3.2.12. We have three trusted domains. Our Samba Server uses LDAP as Backend. Most of the time it worked nice, but after some time Winbind loses User Entrys. On the windows side i can see "unknown user

Hi, I'm using 3.0.21b and I cannot get the guest account to work. some of smb.conf: ------------------------------ security = user hosts allow = 192.168.2. 127. guest account = visiteur log level = 2 log file = /var/log/samba/samba.%m max log size = 1024 socket options = TCP_NODELAY [publique] path = /vol2/samba/publique browseable = yes guest ok = yes

Hi, I have a AIX 5.3 machine with Samba 3.0.24c joined into one Windows 2003 ADS server OK. I can request basic information, user lookup, domain lookup(wbinfo, id, net groupmap). When I want to acces the share \\node05\brom from one Windows station I receive a popup window password. In the log of the samba for that machine I found: [2007/04/27 10:48:27, 2] auth/auth.c:check_ntlm_password(319)

Hello Samba users, I'm trying to configure my samba server as a PDC for some Win2k machines. I'm running Red Hat 8.0 and samba-3.0.0rc4. Everything seems to be ok, when using workgroup configuration, all the shares works fine. But I cant get the Win2k clients to log in the Domain. It says I have a unknown user or an incorrect password. But at least it prompted me for a user/password, so I

When I attempt to authenticate a user from another domain, I am seeing some strange issues. My winbindd.log shows that I am indeed already trusting the other domain. (I am a member of the na.uis.unisys.com domain.) However, when I try to gain access to a share where the username EU\INBLR-AUTH1 has access, I get prompted for a username and password over and over. Obviously, it can't

Hello, I'm having some difficulty trying to join a WinXP client to our Samba domain. When I try to join the client to the domain and I submit the computer name and the domain name in the computer identification control panel, I'm prompted for the root user and password on the server, so I enter root and the root password on our Samba server. I then get a message saying that it

I've been trying to have Samba 3.0.1 work as a primary domain controller using LDAP as the authentication mechanism. However I am unable to get any of my Windows XP Pro machine join the domain. When prompt for an account with permissions to join the domain by the XP client, I give it the Administrator account which is granted Full access to the LDAP directory (BTW this is poor security,

I'm trying to set it up so I can join the domain with a regular user that is part of the domain admin group. I have a user dsonenberg that is in the domain admin group(512), but I can't join the domain with that account. For the record I can login with that account and Administrator can join the domain. The PDC has an LDAP backend. Here's the log. 2005/02/08 10:26:25, 2]

I just migrated my SMB pdc to a new server (was running 3.0.21c, now 3.0.22). Some things seems to be ok. net rpc list; net rpc testjoin seem to work. But if I attempt to join a windows system to the domain I get "The following error occured while attempting to join to domain "DOMAINNAME": The user name could not be found". The machine name is getting loaded into ldap.

Hello, I am trying to synchronize the content of the directory my_dir/ from /home to /backup. This directory contains a file which name has a double quote in it, such as to"to.

I am trying join a w2k bo to a samba DC on RH9. I have read that I need to add the computer as a user first then join so I did it via these commands: adduser myComputer$ smbpasswd -a -m myComputer Is that all i need to do? When I join I get the "welcome to the domain message" and then I restart. However when trying to login I get "This systems computer account is not in the

Hi All, I installed samba 3.0.22 and join it to Win2003 AD domain. Users from my domain can access the samba shares successfully. My problem is that users from trusted domains can not access to my samba shares Wbinfo -m - show all the trusted domains Wbinfo -u - show all the users include the trusted domains users. Any Idea?
