Not sure if this is the place to post this but....I'm just going through the process of installing Samba and LDAP using the current version of Chapter 6: Making Users Happy (http://us4.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-Guide/happy.html#id2557011 <http://us4.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-Guide/happy.html#id2557011> ) I found one error in the Install and Configure Idealx smbldap-tools

I have a SMB Domain set up with a PDC and BDC. The BDC is joined to the PDC domain fine and shows up in the LDAP directory. I can add and delete users to the LDAP directory. I can use the user accounts to access the Linux boxes. My W2K boxes see the domain and domain servers when browsing. I can access the shared drive on the PDC. I cannot join the Windows servers to the domain. I get an error

My domain name is SAMBA-DOMAIN, I can't join it from a win 2003 machine. Now, if I try to join it from a XP machine, I am asked to enter a username and password for a user allowed to join the domain, however, the info I enter is not accepted!!! Any idea please? Thank you Note: to manage joining my samba domain from a xp machine, I had to change a registry key. --- "Mccrory, Kevin

Might want to include the following command in LDAP config incase LDAP doesn't start. slapd -u ldap -g ldap -d -1 This command pointed out that I hadn't copied my samba.schema to the /etc/openldap/schema directory. Might want to put that in the doc before you start LDAP. A newbie like me might pass over that little detail while following the instructions... Kevin B. McCrory Network

I have the PDC/BDC with a master slave LDAP directory set up and operating. One problem is that I've only been able to get the LDAP Master/Slave replication working if I use Manager as the binddn for the replication. I'm using the IDEALX smbldap tools. If I use another user I get a ERROR: Insufficient access: no write access to entry error and a .rej file is created. Each entry shows

I want to be able to use Samba to manage a Windows cluster account for failing over two Windows clusters. This is a small system, 8 web servers with two DB clusters along with a couple of other servers handling backup and management functions. I run DNS services on the firewall for the internal machines. The AD DNS is only for the clusters. All the machines are Domain members for single Sign on

How do you change the Administrator account name for Samba/LDAP? On all of our Windows machines we change the default Administrator account name to something else. I want to do that for the Samba/LDAP PDC so that all the machines are in sync. Kevin B.

Hello... I need some help with tags. as an example: # pseudo code class ssh { file { "/etc/ssh/ssh_config": # normal stuff tag("dangerous") } file { "/etc/ssh/sshd_config": # normal stuff tag("dangerous") } file { "/etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts": # normal stuff tag("safe") } } on client: puppetd --tags

Hello... Is this a bug or by design? I''m using exported resources to generate /etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts. I changed the example from the docs to this: @@sshkey { "$fqdn,$hostname,$ipaddress": type => rsa, key => $sshrsakey, } so that I would get one line per host in the ssh_know_hosts file. What happened was that on each run several (all?)

Dear Samba & Users. I have spent some time going over the documentation, however I still no not fully understand what the cause is.

I am working on reconfiguring an app that we are about to release to work tighter with another app that we already have. Both of these apps are going to share a single users database that stores the general information about the user such as login, password, name, email and so forth. They also have app specific stuff that is attributed to the user that is stored in the app''s own

Hello... I am looking to replace my current config file management solution with puppet. I looked at both cfengine and puppet and neither seem to have a "diff" option. as in: configfile { "/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf": source => "/httpd/httpd.conf" } will install a httpd.conf file. What I would like is to be able to see a unified diff of the
