Samba Ldap experts, I am trying to recompile samba to support ldap. After compiling samba with --with-ldapsam, I had no errors with configure or compilation. However, after starting up smbd and nmbd, I get these errors in the log.smbd file when I try to connect to the server: [2004/12/20 13:57:02, 0] lib/debug.c:reopen_logs(590) Unable to open new log file /var/log/samba/smbd.log: No

Gemes, others, Ok, I went back and compiled without ldapsam_compat. I am now trying to simply use ldapsam. However, I get this error in the log.smbd when trying to connect with a client: [2004/12/23 12:59:18, 0] passdb/pdb_interface.c:make_pdb_methods_name(664) No builtin nor plugin backend for ldapsam found [2004/12/23 12:59:18, 1] passdb/pdb_interface.c:make_pdb_context_list(765)

Dovecot 1.1.2 Good afternoon, I installed dovecot to work with Exim....my dovecot.conf is like this: #Protocolos suportados protocols = imap log_path = /var/log/dovecot.log info_log_path = /var/log/dovecot-info.log #Desabilitar SSL ssl_disable = yes disable_plaintext_auth = no first_valid_gid = 0 mail_location = mailbox:/usr/home/%u/mail/:INBOX=/var/mail/%u mail_access_groups = mail

Dovecot experts, We just recently deployed Dovecot 1.0.rc15 on a Redhat 5 system. I have over 1400 users. At first it appeared to work fine. But soon, we had complaints of students that couldn't retrieve their email. I looked in the logs and found this error.

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 I have a PDC with an LDAP backend that i want to use SWAT to give users the option to change their password via the web interface. I cant seem to be able to get SWAT to authenticate any users it always gives me an authorization error. Is swat with an LDAP backend supported? Cheers. David.

Hey guys! Question for you in about samba in general, can you set it up so that I can access my samba shares from a computer not in my subnet? Aka, I want to be able to access my samba server (using samba) off of my network. I've seen documentation stating that this can be done, but my experences with the actual system seem to be otherwise! Any help in getting this going (if it can work)

Hello I'm trying to do an ldap proxy but it is not working, it just continues to access the user's mailbox. I was able to do a proxy with a user in a "passwd-file", but not ldap directory. Here is part my "args" file on the passdb ldap stanza: base = dc=example,dc=com auth_bind = yes pass_filter =

I posted this earlier, but never saw it show up in the mailing list so I'm posting it again. I have a Samba 3.0 PDC using LDAP as it's password database backend, but I can't get a user to log on to a Win2k machine on the domain. In the log file for the PC (on the Samba machine), I see that the user is found in the LDAP backend but that getpwnam failed. The username does not

Dovecot experts, Does Dovecot support ldaps:\\ connections in dovecot-ldap.conf for ldap connections? I can get regular ldap:\\connections to work, but not ldaps:\\ connections. I have even downloaded the latest beta version of dovecot and it still doesn't work. If its not supported, will it be in the near future? Note: We are using Centos 5 and Redhat 5 systems. Tim Tyler

Samba experts, Thanks to advice from this list, I am finally able to get smbpasswd to change ldap passwords for the Samba LM/NT passwords. However, I had to give write access to sambaPwdLastSet and sambaPwdCanChange attributes as well. Other Samba attributes don't seem to need write access. I have found plenty of examples with people assigning an ACL for sambaLMPassword and

I'm in the middle of Samba 3.0.9 ==> 3.0.14a migration testing. Because I'm using newer tools, I am also using a newer verions of the Samba LDAP Tools. My older version, 0.8.4, used the 'mkntpwd' utility to generate NT passwords. The new version, 0.9.1 defaults to using (what looks like) a Perl module called Crypt::SmbHash. My questions: Do I need to continue to use mkntpwd?

I remain unclear regarding Samba and LDAP. It appears that mkntpwd is required to generate a viable sambaNTPassword and sambaLMPassword attribute values. But I believe I read that the current incarnation of smbpasswd can accomplish this. Lastly, when utilzing phpLDAPadmin, do the NT and LM password fields contain the values generated by mkntpwd? -- Raymond

Hello, I'm new in Samba Ldap. I use samba-2.2.3a and openldap2-2.1.4-46. I am going to load in Ldap a lot of users in a ldif file as it is shown below. But I don't know how to put samba password.
