similar to: Samba PDC Server Local SID, Domain SID, and GROUP RID Question

For the last few years, we have had a NT4 PDC (without a BDC). This week I undertook the process of builing a Samba BDC running Debian linux. This new BDC is running samba version 3.0.7. After setting up the box, I copied all of the user, group, and machine accounts over to the new bdc, using "net rpc vampire". The BDC is up and running and I see everybody authenticating against it.

I have problem adding users after I set up a goupmap. Before there was no problem. net groupmap ntgroup=Users unixgroup=users Users (S-1-5-32-545) -> users useradd pesho -g users pdbedit -a pesho new password: retype new password: tdb_update_sam: Failing to store a SAM_ACCOUNT for [pesho] without a primary group RID Unable to add user! (does it already exist?) pesho of cource doesn?t exist

Hi all ! This is a patch for Group mapping bug #1 reported here : http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba-technical/2004-January/034057.html It activates users' primary group SID update when adding/modifying/deleting a group mapping. It patches utils/net_groupmap.c (net_groupmap_add, net_groupmap_modify, net_groupmap_delete) and can be applied to samba-3.0.2rc1. net_groupmap_add : Scan users

Hi there, I'm trying to import a smbpasswd-file into a Samba 3.0 installation on Debian Sarge using tdbsam as sole passdb backend. Copying pdbedit's documentation I used pdbedit -i smbpasswd:/root/smbpasswd.old The error message returned was tdb_update_sam: Failing to store a SAM_ACCOUNT for [foo] without a primary group RID where foo is the username to be imported. This message was

Hi all, I use tdbsam backend. When I create a box for win2k machine: # pdbedit -a -m -u machine$ tdb_update_sam: SAM_ACCOUNT (machine$) with no RID! Unable to add machine! (does it already exist?) What is wrong? Other failer message: Unable to open TDB rid database! Regards, Roland

OK. I've given up on using the 'net vampire' feature to suck our NT4 info. Now I want to start afresh. I've set the smb.conf file up, and run the script I found in the HTML docs to map common Windows Domain groups to unix groups. This worked OK. Now I want to create a root account so I can actually join the domain from a Windows 2000 client. When I run:

Hello Anytime I try to do anything with the root user (like join the domain) or run 'net user' or 'net group' with root, when I enter the correct password, I get NT_STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL .... I've been trying more commands, and if I run tdbedit -e=tdbsam (to export the smbpasswd to tdbsam style), I get this error : tdb_update_sam: Failing to store a SAM_ACCOUNT for [root]

Hi all, I'm thinking of possibly trying out Google AdSense on the syslinux web pages. Before doing so, however, I'd like to hear: a) Would anyone object to such a move? (And if so, why?) b) Does anyone have good/bad experiences with AdSense that they would like to share? -hpa

The exact configuration mentioned below used to work on rhel3, and when updated to rhel4 it stopped working... when visited the samba log file, there was this error : useradd: invalid user name 'wpvm01$' rpc_server/srv_samr_nt.c:_samr_create_user(2272) could not add user/computer wpvm01$ to passdb.

Hello guys, as subject says, i've got problem with it. And because i'm in preparation of migration of users form Samba PDC with passdb.tdb backend ot LDAP backend, i need to be 100% clear on it.

Hi All, I have a setup using tdbsam as a backend, I can add accounts using pdbedit -a <username> but I have only been able to add one machine account.

I have verified that there is no entry in /etc/passwd or /etc/shadow for the machine name I

Working with Samba 3.0 on rh9. Set up samba to use tdbsam (small network, maybe 30-40 users tops) and be a PDC for the internal network. Will be joining machines to this domain.
