similar to: Why does nobody answere??? WG: username map - same problem

Hello! I want to permit the root account to be called administrator from the win clients in my network. Therefore I have added 'root = administrator' in my /etc/samba/smbusers. I have also added 'username map = /etc/samba/smbusers' in smb.conf. When I try to log on as administrator from a windows client I get a message that the user does not exist. I am running samba 3 on

Hey, I am totally confused/lost/confused getting this config working. I am trying to get samba to authenticate against LDAP. After reading a bunch of docs I generated the config at the end. When I run testparm against it I get: Load smb config files from /etc/samba/smb.conf Unknown parameter encountered: "ldap server" Ignoring unknown parameter "ldap server" and then the

Samba experts, Ok, we are having so many problems getting ldap to work, we decided to start over with our compile. We are compiling Samba --with-ldap on our AIX 5.1 system which uses gcc. Openldap (for client support) exists in /usr/local/openldap/2.2.17. In order for Samba to find the ldap.h file, we had to configure with CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/openldap/2.2.17/include"

Hi all Maybe a stupid question, but I'm not able to figure this out from the manpage nor from the HOWTOs... How can I force a user to change his password at next logon? I tried: # pdbedit -P "user must logon to change password" -C 0 -u username # pdbedit -u username -P "user must logon to change password" -C 0 # pdbedit -P "user must logon to change password"

I have a patch that enables "user password timeout" for 2.2.2. It works only for WinNT, Win2000 (tested and Samba on AIX and Linux) and I think with WinXP. It does not work with Win9x. You can download the patch from http://www.m-wohlfarth.de/Downloads/Samba/samba.html. I never had the problem with automatically expiring password as described in the originating message - I couldn't

We have set option "password never expires" for a user with "pdbedit -u username -c "[X]"". The user must not change his password, but gets a message, that "Password expires today. Do you want to change". This is confusing. regards Mathias Wohlfarth

I have tried "net rpc user add username password". The command fails with an error message "User must be specified". This message comes from function rpc_user_add_internals - only one argument ist allowed. Something seems to be wrong - code or documentation. regards Mathias Wohlfarth

If its NFSv4, then its most likely a problem with your idmapper. Make sure that the rpc.idmapd is running on your client, and that your server has appropriate ID mapping enabled. If its NFSv4, are you using sec=krb5*? -- Jonathan Billings

Hey Y'all, For the last week or more I've been trying to get NFS and OpenLDAP to play nice with each other. I've pretty much worn the Google machine out trying to find a solution. I've found several that said "Solved" but none of those solutions solved my nobody:nobody problem. In the past I've used NFS in conjunction with NIS to share home directories from my

Occasionaly folks with Samba network-mapped drives under WinNT 4.0 complain that "all of a sudden" they do not have write permissions to directories/files in the network-mapped drive. Very strange, as they were able to only hours before. I thought it may have something to do with when I make a change to my smb.conf and do a 'kill -HUP <pid of inetd>'. But that being the

still trying to solve my domain-problems (from time to time I get 'domain controller cant be found' on a special sambaserver 2.2.3a) Why does samba complain about wrong password for user nobody ? I actually found "nobody" in smbpasswd, but I'm not sure if I put it in there and dont understand why nobody needs to be samba-user. imho nobody is the unix-account under which

I´ve figured out the following. I am able to sftp from shorewall 2.4.2 left vpn gateway x.x.x.14 (DMZ) to shorewall 2.4.1 fw x.x.x.11 with /etc/shorewall/proxyarp x.x.x.14 eth2 eth0 No very well. That´s not through a tunnel (of course a ssh tunnel, but no vpn) but with public ip x.x.x.14 to x.x.x.11 If I try to sftp through the fw to the public internet I have the same

For all running in the same error: This solved my problem. In smb.conf --> interfaces = eth0 And all is up and running perfect!!

Hallo! I am running samba-3.0.10-1.4E.11 on centOS. I want to enable the automatic printer download feature, but are running into problems. I have tried to work it out from samba by example, but since the automatic driver download is bundeled togehter with ldap (which I am not using), this does not get me anywhere. Can anyone direct me to a good howto on this - one that will make things work! I
