Hello, I have attached a small patch that enables OpenSSH 4.7p1 to use netgroups for users and hosts entries in the AllowUsers and DenyUsers configuration options in sshd_config. This has the following advantages: * hostnames or ip addresses don't have to be maintained in sshd_config, but you can use meaningful names for groups of users and groups of hosts. * large scale installations can

Hi, I'm running Redhat Enterprise WS 4. with kernel 2.6.9-11.

Hello, everyone, I'm new to this mailing list. So please excuse me if this topic has been discussed before. We have a network that consists of a few subnetworks. Each subnetwork has its own network address. In each subnet there are Windows 95/98/NT machines, as well as Linux/Unix machines that run Samba. NO NT Domain is used! I've configured cross-subnetwork browsing by 1. using

Program: update_links.pl Author: Ryan Wyler <ryan@nhorizon.net> Problem this program solves: Windows machines taking a LONG time to browse shares of automount points which include directories that are inaccessable to the samba server. Explanation: We have our samba shares setup to mount the unix automount directories. The problem is there are MANY automount directories that the

I've been bashing my head against this same old problem and I've pretty much nailed it down to winbindd. I'm trying to make a Solaris box run SAMBA 3.0.1.pre3 and exist as a member server without acting as a BDC ie. security=domain. There is no Kerberos or LDAP available. All user accounts are on NIS (not NIS+). The install gives me a /etc/init.d/samba.server script that

share in the samba box, from the PDC server itself. The log.winbindd and log.nmbd are empty.

Hello everybody. I'm trying to create a local group with this command and I get this error: net sam createlocalgroup peocio [2007/06/28 11:03:16, 0] passdb/pdb_interface.c:pdb_new_rid(1066) Trying to allocate a RID when algorithmic RIDs are active [2007/06/28 11:03:16, 0] groupdb/mapping.c:pdb_default_create_alias(468) Could not allocate a RID -- wasted a gid :-( Am I missing anything?

I want to move my Samba 3.0.10 server which is acting as PDC and WINS server to a new server with a differenent hostname and IP address. The old server is being used as a NIS+ server which means it would be very difficult for me to move the old hostname and IP to the new server. I have used the IP of the old server in the WINS server settings in DHCP and have set it by hand on a handful of PCs

Hi all, using samba 2.2.5; security=server connecting as user1 (user logged in on PC) works (12:28:55), disconnecting and connecting as another user2 (not the user logged in on PC) works too (12:30:22), but disconnecting and connecting again as user1 (user logged in on PC) fails (12:34:29) as well as user2 (12:38:19). It seems it works only once and never again after one time logged in as user2 ?

I would like to be able to use Windows Active Directory accounts for logon to a Linux RH8 desktop. I have successfully used Kerberos to add the desktop to the AD domain. I am also able to use Kerberos or rpc to view users & groups. I have not been able to use winbind. I am using the Samba3.aplha22 RPM. Our AD domain has restrict anonymous set to 1 for the DC's. Following the How-To

Hello, I'm having a problem configuring samba (2.0.5a) on a Linux system using NIS+ as the password system. Samba complains that it cannot find the smbpasswd file, which is not surprising as I'm not using one. I tried 'smb password file = passwd.org_dir' that sort of worked, except that it creates a directory called passwd.org_dir from whatever directory I ran the smbd from.

Hi Guys, I have posted this subject long time ago but this problem still persistently happens on my linux+pdc server. Here is my server detail , CentOs5.1 + Samba-3.0.25b + Fedora Directory Server So far every is running fine. It is just one thing I don't understand what I have done wrong. Normally if you open teminal window it should be like " [root@myserver /]" but sometime

Hello, I'm new to samba. Trying to get it running on Solaris on Intel using NIS+. I configured it with the --with-nisplus --with-nisplus-home and --with-automount. I don't seem to be able to get authentication to work. I've created the smbpasswd file from my nis+ tables, set the perms per the docs (encryption.txt to name one) and when I try to run smbpasswd to set a password for

Thanks for the replies.... I am stuck on the second step of your list... I do not have a smbpasswd file, so I am not sure how I can create on... also, when I run smbpasswd (the executable) as root, I get the

Hi all, I know this has probably been spoke about before, but I'm looking for some documentation or other info on setting up NIS+ with samba.... I currently have samba running on the NIS+ master, but am having trouble setting up authentication again the NIS+ passwd tables. I'm also not exactly sure where smbpasswd comes into play with NIS+ and if I actually need to run that everytime I

Hi everyone, Let me briefly describe my setup. I work at a small university and we are setting up 3 labs. 2 are filled with Ultra Sparc 5's, and the 3rd will be filled with PCs running NT4 workstation. We have an Enterprise Server 3500 running NIS+ to authenticate the Unix labs (or rather we will, once I get it working), and I'd like to set up Samba to authenticate the NT labs using

Hi, The current method of hard coding at compile time which password database Samba is to use is a little inconvenient. The same binaries cannot be used for files/NIS+/LDAP. An extra samba.conf option eg. database files nis+ ldap could be used to give the databases allowed and the preferred search order. If the default was: database files then the compile options with_nisplus and with _ldap
