List, Thanks tremendously to JC and JHT for guiding (nay, kicking) me toward getting ACLs to work on RHAS3. Reading the RH sysadmin guide about ACLs and searching elsewhere, as well as thinking for myself, were also a pre. Now for something completely different: High school in Amsterdam Netherlands: - RHAS3 - Samba 3.0.11 RPC, not ADS (no way we're upgrading while the bug reports keep

HEllo, i am running samba 3.0.14a with this smb.conf file: [global] netbios name = redhat workgroup = net2day server string = PDC [on Redhat :: Samba server %v] security = user encrypt passwords = yes socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192 hosts allow = 192.168.0.0/24 127.0.0.1 interfaces = lo eth0 bind interfaces only = yes local master = yes os level = 65 domain master = yes

Is possible to store the Group Policy Container (GPC) on a OpenLDAP? Is possible to store the Group Policy Template (GPT) on a Samba share? The idea is to manage windows desktop policies using the new Win200x GPOs without using an Active Directory. Any other hints?

Hi ! I use samba (3.0.7) with ldap backend. I have installed above system some time ago. During our migration from netware to samba i had to disable period password change and do not remeber what i have "clicked" :-/ What parameters should be "on" to enable this functionality ? greetz boka

Most of my users (unfortunately me included) need to use a bloated, badly designed piece of sh^Hoftware that only works with administrator's rights (I won't say names but it's from a big german company strongly pushing for software patents). How can I assign those users Administrator's rights without phisically going to each machine? I cold put them in the 'Domain

Hi all, I've managed to install an ubuntu server as PDC, everything is working fine. However, i've got a few questions regarding profile ( M$ XP ) and unix accounts. 1. Roaming profile : I believed that when logging off a computer, user's profile was moved back to the server. But i can still find one. Is there anything to do for the profile not to be stored on pc ? 2. An account

Ok, I'm going kinda nuts... I have a samba 3 + openldap domain, which works great for authentication, etc. I am trying to use the NTConfig.POL to enforce policies on a mix of 98/win2k and XP boxes. This is a K12 environment, so I need very restrictive policies for students, less so for teachers and staff. What seems to be happening, at least with the XP clients is that it gets the

(Yet Another Samba Question) Using Fedora Core 2, I have edited/created my swat file, restarted the xinetd service, but when I attempt to launch SWAT using local host, I get the following message: The connection was refused trying to contact localhost:901 ANy ideas? Joe

I would like to set special permissions (ACL) when pam autocreates my home dirs in samba. I think i should use a script for that. My question is: how can I make pam run a bash script after it creates the homedir? Thanks Cristian

Hi all got a bit of and odd problem with ACL. Ive read up on a few bits in the samba howto and read some threads on here about it. Im not sure if this is a bug, something ive not done, doing wrong etc so anyone that could shed some light on it that would be great. Basically the windows box handles all user account processing and during creating a script for all this it will attempt to change the

Means "acclaim" in both Norwegian languages (there are new official rules out today for writing both of the 2 Indo-European Norwegian languages). What made me write this acclaim is the number of postings I've seen about Samba's instability - i.e. run-away processes, profiles going wrong, ACL problems and more. My (high school) site with around 80 w2k workstations, of which

Hello people, i'm brasilian. I'm sorry for the erros... ok?! :-) Let's go! My company uses openldap-2.1.21. What is the version samba compatible with openldap-2.1.21?! I'm trying install samba-3.0.11, but it requires openldap-2.2.23. I don't want install the release openldap-2.2.23 for it. Thank you.

List, documenters; I'd like to exchange notes about the official Samba 3 LDAP doco. I'd like to do this off list, since doing it on list would simply confuse and confound users wit perfectly working systems. Background: Me, Samba relative newbie, though I can get *everything* Samba-orientated to work simply by using umpteen years Unix experience. Many years as Openldap admin. With

Hello, I'm new to the list and pretty much a newbie to linux and samba. I'm quick learner though. I have been losing my samba share upon ocasion recently, below is a portion of the syslog from the time period that I think is when the share goes down. A reboot of the server or a restart of the smbd fixes the problem (....until it happens again) I don't know what SIGUP is or why

Hi there, With the new scrutinization by auditors on account policies and auditing, how can Samba be SOX compliant? Using 3.0.14a-sernet on Suse 9.1 - ldapsam Specifically, a couple of things seem to be lacking: 1) Logon/Logoff times are not being recorded The last logon time recorded in my ldap entries are pre-nt4 migration. 2) Do the Audit Policy values in user manager have any effect? Are

List, both on RHAS3 update3, update 4, Samba source code 3.0.9 thru 11 gives SIGSEGVs on make check. Installing the buggers and trying to run them gives the same. *THOUGH*. The Red Hat beta 3.0.9 srpm at fr2.rpmfind.net comples and runs "like a little sun" ("net als een zonnetje", in Dutch). Anyone compiled Samba 3.0.11 on Red Hat RHAS3/RHEL3? Not "how", just

Johan B, please let it through+ The headers are needed. I live in the Netherlands, where the police contacts for this sort of thing are grey and unknown to me. The Metropolitan Police (London only) in England is 100% on the ball, but they're under resourced and I don't live in their "manor" (London slang for area). I'd like to push it out to as powerful an organization

Hello list, is it possible to have the same profile for some users (or a group of users) without having to use a separate profile directory for each user? I would like to set up a pre-defined mandatory profile for a school with more than 1,000 students. Each student should have the same, unchangeable profile. Is it possible to run it out of one profile directory? If yes, how? Thanks Florian

Can anyone suggest any apps/scripts for bulk generating passwords from real names (e.g. jsmith from John Smith) that would check for duplicated in an existing smbpasswd or passwd file and append a number to the username (e.g. jsmith1, jsmith2).
