Hello everyone, First of all...sorry for this monster post, but I have tried to insert every potentially useful information. :) The last days I vainly tried to implement a samba server with MySQL authentication on one of our servers (Debian 2.6.27.5). The server shall provide fileshare services to some Mac clients (OS 10.4.11). Mail is already running with pam_mysql auth against the mail user

Hello, I have a weird problem with valid/invalid users settings in smb.conf file. It started when I migrated to another machine and started to use pam_mysql. I used samba's internal smbpasswd before. The smb.conf stayed almost the same. But I just don't understand how could pam_mysql cause this. Without "valid users" in config, I can login with any account present in my DB

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi there, I tried the change from cyrus to dovecot. This was just some days ago and I'm really happy. Just a little problem. For testing I switched on some login debugging. Now I can't switch it off. Dovecot seems to ignore the "no" in the config file. <snip> auth_verbose = no auth_debug = no </snip> That is what I get

Hi guys, Just a quick question, I've been slowly moving all my user services to mysql backend, I realise it's probably not as good a choice as LDAP, but you tend to stick with what you know. To that end I want to setup both Apache and VSFTP to use mysql db for virtual users. Basically I want to create virtual users that are locked into their own home dir and have apache use mysql to

Hi, I'm trying to put my samba to authenticate users into a mysql database. I've started to use passdb and I did mapped the main fields and also did some change at pdb_sql.c code to match my needs. Well, the problem is that I can't found a way to use crypt passwords with mysql using pdb_mysql, actually the type of passwords I'm allowed to use are "plain password",

Hi again, I'm on Freebsd 4.x and instead of using the mysql patch, it seems like it would be easier to just use "auth_passdb = pam *" with the pam_mysql drop-in. I'm not really a pam.conf writing expert though. Here's what it currently contains (works for /etc/passwd users) imap auth required pam_unix.so imap account required pam_unix.so

One of my servers is complaining with this error now that I have updated to CentOS 4.4. I am now running postfix-2.2.10-1.RHEL4.2.mysql_pgsql.c4 from the centosplus repository. I had been running postfix-2.1.5-4.2.RHEL4.mysql.centos4 from the centosplus repository. I also have the following MySQL related packages installed: mysql-devel-5.0.22-1.centos.1 pam_mysql-0.6.0-1

Hello, I am trying to write an PAM module for openssh, which should authenticate users using an MySQL database (it is based on pam_mysql). The problem is that I do not know what is necessary to authenticate successfully users, which do not have entries in /etc/passwd, for them I get invalid user :(. I will greatly appreciate any info on the matter. I have been pulling my hair out for almost

Hello samba experts, I want to configure samba with mysql as backend. I searched on google and i found some info about this subject but it seems to be not really what i nedd. I said this because i found few howtos about how to configure samba to read password from mysql database to authenticate users. Is good but not enough. I don't want shell users with different password for samba!!! I

Hi all, I get the error message "not authorized to login from this station". This is not fixed as suggested in past posts (encrypt = no, NT4_plainpassword.reg). I have libpam-mysql installed. And it never even gets called for authentication from the NT machine! If I connect from the local PC with smbclient //server/share password -U user I get the following in syslog (I turned on

I have been reading up : http://wiki.dovecot.org/moin.cgi/DovecotPostgresql to create virtual users who can access the email. Can i follow these steps with a few changes to get to use mysql instead of Postgresql ? Also i dont know if u all can help.. but i have tried to do : SASL2 authentication configuration in main.cf(Postfix): smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_sasl_authenticated,

I read in the Samba HOWTO Collection that every machine in the domain needs to have a corresponding UNIX account. Does this mean whenever I add a machine to the network, I must create a UNIX account for each one?? Am I supposed to create Unix accounts for my users as well? Doesn't this defeat the purpose of using a centralized authentication backend such as LDAP or MySQL?

Hi, I've been playing around with pam_mysql, and have it working for interactive logins (backed by /etc/passwd entries for uid/gid w/*'d password field) and it works well so far. Looking at the source to the module, it does support password changing. So I put in the following entry in pam.conf: sshd password required pam_mysql.so user=root db=pam table=users crypt=1 However,

I've built & configured the dovecot to use mysql as the passdb and userdb. However, dovecot-auth always claims that the username/password of mysql server is wrong (access denied by mysql server) during the connection. When I set the password to NULL, it can successfully connect to mysql server! I am 100% sure that I typed the correct password (by copy & paste), and I can successfully

Some additional tests. I tried to add a test connection in the main.c under auth, which should be the main file of dovecot-auth. The test connection is done as the first statement in the int main() function. However, it still reports that the connection fails due to access denied. What should I do?? Any suggestions are welcomed. -----Original Message----- From: dovecot-bounces at dovecot.org
