Hi, I finally have my profiles problem squared away.... I've done away with the Administrator user in smbldap-tools by running smbldap-populate -a root instead of just plain smbldap-populate Thus root is now the samba admin. BUT....when I run getent passwd my system shows the home directory as /home/root instead of /root....how can I change this...or better yet how can I have my cake

Is it possible to script smbldap-useradd and smbldap-passwd to add users in bulk? Are there any sample scripts anywhere? I can't seem to find anything. Thanks, -Guy

Hi guys, I've installed openldap-2.1.25 and Samba-3.0.2 and configured everything with no TLS on a Slackware-9.1 Linux box. To manage the LDAP backed I've used smbldap-tools-0.8.4. After populating the database with smbldap-populate I was able to first add users to /etc/passwd etc. and then to LDAP with smbldap-useradd -a and access the server via Windows PCs. Everything appeared to be

Dear list, Arghl! (I'm sure you know the feeling). I'm still hooked on Samba by example, and trying to add users to my ldap tree. $ smbldap-useradd -m -a ldaptest2 Can't call method "get_value" on an undefined value at /usr/sbin/smbldap-useradd line 197 The documentation of the smbldap scripts mentions this sort of error (albeit with a different line number). Two possible

Samba 3.0.23d, on Debian Sarge - using the samba.org packages smbldap-tools 0.9.2 Greetings all, I am trying to set up a new PDC using LDAP, etc. Adding/deleting/modifying users in LDAP works fine using phpldapadmin. These users also work just fine logging in/out. I am trying to get the usrmgr tool to also work, so im working on the scripts on the server. I am getting this error however when

I'm in the process of learning Samba and evaluating it as a possible replacement for Windows NT servers in our office next year. I have set up a small test network comprised of one NT 4 (SP6a) Workstation, one Windows 2000 Pro (SP3) and one Fedora Core 3 running samba 3.0.11 as a PDC. I'm using LDAP as the passdb backend with smbldap-tools 0.8.7-1. The Windows 2000 Pro machine can join the

Hi all, I have setup samba / openldap as describes by the idealx howto and as such I am using the smbldap-tools. However, I would like to add the givenname and email address fields for all users. What is the best way to do this? I would prefer continuing to use the smbldap-tools, but I cannot seem to find a good way to do this. When I try to: $ smbldap-usermod -M testuser@testdomain.net

Hi! I'm installing Debian Sarge with Samba 3.0.14a-3, OpenLDAP 2.2.23-8, smbldap-tools 0.8.7-4 ( I tried with 0.9.x version also) It isn't the first time I install a system like this but this time I encountered a problem never seen: during user insert I have an error because of smbldap-tools do not find indicated group (but group exists!). So: SambaTesting:~/install#

smbldap-tools 0.8.7 FreeBSD 5.4-RC2 Samba 3.1.14 Perl 5.8.2 When I try to use any of the tools, the following message appears. Any hints on how to fix it are welcome.

All, I suspect this is OT, or a solution may have been posted. Either way, I beg your indulgence. While I've used Samba for quite a few years, I recently took a stab at using it in an organization I volunteer at to create a PDC, in conjunction with openldap. The good news is it works, for the most part, after some set-up struggles. I have a couple of remaining issues, but let me take them

Hi, I've reported this before but I guess I'll have to do it again, since it's not fixed yet or I'm understanding something wrong here. The problem is that smbldap-useradd -w 'machinename' will add only posixAccount entrys into ldap but it should add both posixAccount and sambaSAMAccount entrys. So if one doesn't add correct machine account entrys manually to ldap

I can't get smbldap-useradd to add the sambaSamAccount workstation attributes.

Hi All, I am current working on Samba + LDAP PDC in RHEL-4. I some problem when doing the smbldap-useradd -w command. When I have a WinXP box try to join the PDC, smbldap-useradd -w "%u" will add a workstation account to the LDAP tree with all POSIX attribute but without all the SambaSAMAccount attribute. So, the WinXP box can find it's workstation account and wouldn't

Hello, The abstract is : How to run smbldap-useradd (and others) with a non-root user, knowing that giving Samba privileges to the user's account is enough. Now are details : My setup is FreeBSD-8, samba35, nss_ldap, smbldap-tools... And NO pam_ldap. I am creating a webservice which must run smbldap-tools scripts. Everything is running on a FreeBSD-8, and running fine by root. However, my
