similar to: winbind + trust relationship on wan

Hi Everybody, Here in my company we have migrated from nt4 to Debian Sarge with Samba 3.0.14a + OpenLdap 2.2.23 + db4. Well, it's working fine except for one problem. When I have to get back to a backup copy on my ldap slaves on my BDCs some, or sometimes all, Windows XP machines need to be rejoined to the domain. I manage a workaround stopping Samba every time I need to reset the ldap

Hi Everybody, Does anybody that have it working can give me a sample of what looks like a NTConfig.POL file that changes users passwords every 45 days. I?m using samba 3.0.10 with ldap backend. Any help will be appreciated. Thank?s Gustavo

We have several locations seperated by WAN links. There is one PDC in the central office, and a BDC at each other site. The PDC has a WINS server, all other servers and stations are configured to query this server (hybrid mode - WINS first, then broadcast.) Here is my problem: When one of the BDCs is disconnected from the network, all of the sites suffer problems (ie., Windows logins slow down

Since we're on the subject of Samba over the WAN.... (BTW, I'm running three offices with a Samba 3.0.9 PDC and two Samba 3.0.9 BDCs over an FreeSwan based WAN and it works just fine. The WINS server is a must in my book though.) Last Thursday and Friday, one of the remove office's WAN lines went down. While the outages were significant, nothing major happened because of it. But,

We're about to start migrating from Windows NT 4.0 to a Samba controlled setup. I've got a question about the functionality of the Samba PDCs and BDCs. In my Windows setup I have three domains that are defined by geographic locations. Each of these domains "trusts" the other. In Samba 2.2.7, I can't have the trusts, so I'm looking at creating one giant domain that

OS / Software: PDC / Master LDAP store: - Redhat 9 - OpenLDAP 2.1.25 - Samba 3.0.0 BDC / Slave LDAP store: - Redat 9 - OpenLDAP 2.0.27-8 - Samba 3.0.2 >From the Samba HOWTO Collection on www.samba.org: (Backup Domain Control) "Can I Do This All with LDAP? The simple answer is yes. Samba's pdb_ldap code supports binding to a replica LDAP server, and will also follow

How to configure smb.conf of a samba BDC server to allow that all changes (user's passwords changing, joining computers) was written to local LDAP. I?ve set remotes LDAP's (BDCs) with multimaster configuration via syncrepl. LDAP Multimaster feature works fine (N-way replication works perfectly) I need this configuration to void errors when a user must to change his/her password in a

Here's the situation. We've got an old NT4 domain (not a Samba domain in NT 4 mode) which we'll call CRUSTY. There is of course an NT4 PDC and several NT4 BDCs. We have some Linux/Samba file servers (Samba 3.0.1) that are member servers (security = domain) of the NT4 domain. We also have several NT4 BDCs and about 200 workstations of varying vintage (2000, XP) in several

Hi: Can anybody point me to some guidelines about SMB network design or give some advice? Samba HOWTOs are very detailed recipes, but I need some general tips, like if we are serving fish or pasta tonight :-) This is the situation: a WAN with 20 offices with 2 to 30 people in each, plus a headquarter with 50 people, plus the databases and central file servers. The organization grew up on a NT4

Hello List, here?s what i got: 2 Boxes running Samba 3 with LDAP as Backend, one in each Location. The Authentification works fine via the Wan-Link, that?s not the problem. However, since we want the Users to be able to roam not only inside the Offices - but also betweeen them - we need to implement a system that also keeps the actual Data and Profiles in Sync. ATM, we?re using UNISON to do

Hi list, I can successfully build the driver modules; hdlc, dlci, syncppp, and lmc from the 2.6.18-128.1.14 kernel source rpm, and have managed to create a 'wan kmod' rpm. It all works fine for IPv4, but now I need IPv6 for ppp connections, which doesn't work for me. I think I'll need to back port Krzysztof Halasa's 'ppp for generic hdlc' patches to the

Ok folks I?m at my wit?s end here as I cannot seem to join the domain I setup under Samba version 3.0.7. Every time I try and join the domain with a user that has the power to add a machine to the domain it just says that the user does not exist. This happens with all accounts which I have specified in the smb.conf file as a user that can do this function. I have added those users via smbpasswd ?a

Hi, I''m implementing a linux router with this characteristics: - Multiple adsl with each public ip''s - Multiple LAN ethernets (in a bridge). - Linux IGD I have successfully implemented de 2 first steps, the adsl balanced fine (multipath routing), and the clients bridge fine. My problem is how to use that with linux-igd. My LAN bridge has STP and is implemented for

Hello all, We have Samba (2.2.5) running on three servers, each in a different subnet. One of them is a PDC (domain master = yes). The Samba PDC is also the NIS master. The smbpasswd is replicated using rsync to the other machines that act as Samba BDCs (domain master = no). They are also NIS slave servers. The smbpasswd synchronization takes place automatically every time smbpasswd is updated,

hello I have a asterisk server on WAN, and one server on LAN. And now there are some users on the LAN server. Users on the LAN server need to make phone calls to PSTN through the WAN server. Now on WAN server, there is a user account for the LAN server to register, and it's an account with multiple ports.(So more than one users on the LAN server can make phone calls through the WAN server at

Guus: Ok, I accept your challenge. But I am clueless in terms of getting the routing table correct. So each server has a dual identity, both a LAN private identity with a PRIVATE IP address and a WAN public identify with a PUBLIC ip address. And how to have 2 different tun devices show up in the ifconfig -a so that LAN IP address can be assigned to the tun0 and a WAN IP address can be assigned
