similar to: Ldapscripts v1.0 !

Hello all, And now a small advert ;-) I'm pleased to announce the v 1.4 of the ldapscripts. The ldapscripts are shell scripts provided under the terms of the GPL license. They allow to manage POSIX accounts (users, groups, machines) in an LDAP directory. They can be used on GNU/Linux and FreeBSD (and any other Unix-like ?). They are similar to the smbldap-tools but are written in sh, not

Hi all, I've had good feedbacks of people using ldapscripts v1.0... Here is a new 1.1 version, with the following improvements : - Ability to create home directories and set rights - Ability to generate randomized (or not) passwords while creating a user - Password list generation can be activated while doing a massive user import / creation - Added an _ldapinit command to initialize the

Hi There, i'm keep having problems with samba and smbldap-tools for adding machine accounts on the fly. So I'm somewhat sick of smbldap-tools and i wanted to know if someone is aware of an alternative to it. I haven't found one yet. Anyone? (except writing it myself what would be the very last alternative :) Thanks in advance Greets Patrick

Hi all ! I've been using group mapping for a few weeks and found some bugs... For three of them, I tried to develop a small patch. I don't know Samba code very well and this is my first patch, so there could be errors :-p I hope my investigations will be useful :) * Platform : Here is what I used : Debian 3.0r1, Samba 3.0.2rc1 - PDC, OpenLDAP 2.1.23 as backend smb.conf extract :

Hi list, # dovecot --version 2.2.13 We use Dovecot LDA and I've discovered lots of messages stating that lock files cannot be written: Mar 16 12:02:03 mailhost dovecot: lda(someuser): Error: file_dotlock_open(/home/sg/someuser/.dovecot.lda-dupes) failed: No such file or directory That user's home directory is fetched from LDAP and does not exist locally on our 'mailhost'

Hello all, I am attempting to setup a Samba 3.0.2a based PDC using OpenLDAP 2.2.6 for my user/group authentication backend. So far everything seems to be working properly, I can join the domain from a Win2k PC, login via an account created with smbldap-useradd.pl, map my home directory, run the proper login script, etc. However, with all of that working I'm still having difficulties getting

Hi there, slowly but sure I'm getting absolutely insane with the printer setup on a Samba PDC. I got Cups to work. It works like a charm if someone installs a printer via the cups interface. It also prints in a good quality. On Samba side I even have those "Printers and fax devices" in the visible shares. And if i install CUPS6 Drivers manual on the target system i can even print on

Hi :) As I'd say in French "de rien !" (you're welcome :)) Yes, you can use PAM to redirect the system authentication calls to your LDAP directory, but in reality samba will continue to use two types of accounts : the "posixAccount"s (same as /etc/passwd) and the "sambaSamAccount"s. Everything will be stored in you LDAP directory, but Samba still needs two

Hi List, I compiled Samba 3.4 for Opensolaris because the samba SUNWsmba shipped my SFW did not work properly. Now I had to realize, that the Problems are still there so I beleve that it is a common Problem with Solaris (?) I have samba running as PDC with a Sun Directory Server as backend. All Authentication to Unix Clients work well with DSEE but Samba seems so have some trouble:

Hi, I'm using samba 3b3 (+ldapsam) and have created a user belonging to two groups : - his primary group is mapped to the "Domain Users" Windows group, - his secondary one is mapped to the "Domain Admins" Windows group. Unfortunately, only the first group seems to be known by Samba, since the user doesn't become a "Domain Admin" at all (but he is a

Hi all, As Samba users, we often interact with Windows environments. I've developped a PERL script that may be useful to you : it is an .evt (Windows event "log" files) viewer. It is inspired from fccu-evtreader (www.d-fence.be) and displays the contents of an event file. It is available on my website (http://contribs.martymac.com/evtViewer/evtViewer-0.2.tgz) and released under the

Hi all ! This is a patch for Group mapping bug #1 reported here : http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba-technical/2004-January/034057.html It activates users' primary group SID update when adding/modifying/deleting a group mapping. It patches utils/net_groupmap.c (net_groupmap_add, net_groupmap_modify, net_groupmap_delete) and can be applied to samba-3.0.2rc1. net_groupmap_add : Scan users

Hi all, I'm trying to mygrate my NT4 PDC to a Samba v3rc2 PDC. Everything worked well during accounts migration (vampire). I'm now trying to back-up the shares (homes, profiles, netlogon), in order to fully migrate the accounts. Unfortunately, I'm facing a stupid problem : each home directory (or profile directory) can only be read from its creator, NOT from the Administrator of the

Hi ! I'm trying to migrate accounts from my NT4 server, I followed each step described in the HOWTO : - tunred off samba - set domain master at "No" in config file - created groups + mappings as it is advised to - created the BDC account in the NT4 server manager - net rpc join'ed the domain but when I try to vampire user/group accounts, here is what I get : # net rpc vampire

Hello, Concerning the upcoming 2.2.3 release of Samba with LDAP support. Question 1: Is it possible that you define multiple ldap servers in the option "ldap server ="? In the event that one LDAP server is down, the next LDAP server defined can take over. If not, no authentication is possible if the LDAP server is not available? Question 2: Is there any fallback possible to a

Hi all, I'm testing group mapping, wondering how It works exactly... I thought Samba was storing a mapping table allowing to retreive infos on Unix/Windows groups in a DYNAMIC way. Unfortunately, group mapping seems to be static, here is what I did : [I'm using Samba b3v3 + LDAP, WITHOUT nss-ldap/pam-ldap/winbind -> everything is stored in my /etc/passwd and /etc/group + in LDAP for
