similar to: smbldap-tools patch - careful string handling

I'm trying to setup a PDC (and later on a BDC as well) using samba 3.02a and openLDAP 2.2.13 and I'm having some trouble with the idealx scripts. When I run the command /usr/local/sbin/smbldap-useradd alex I get the message: Can't locate object method "new" via package "Net::LDAP" (perhaps you forgot to load "Net::LDAP"?) at

Hi, for those who are using ldap for managing Samba, here's a quick script I wrote to make it simple to list users or machines on the commandline. I use it to delete old machine entries that are not in use anymore. For usage, read the perldoc in the script. Place the script in the same directory as you have your other smbldap-tools scripts. The script is based on smbldap-usershow. Kind

Hello- I've been trying to scour both * and linux user group archives for a solution to this particular problem, but I am just plan stuck. I got the latest zaptel sources from cvs, uncommented ztdummy.o in Makefile, ran make; make install then, did depmod -a. All is well up until now. When i do modprobe ztdummy, i get this error: dv@sidetrack:/usr/local/src/zaptel# depmod -a

Hi, On a Fedora box we installed Samba 3.0.8pre1-0.pre1.3 Accidently we've removed the samba password file. Now, we can't get access to Samba anymore. Is there a way to re-create it ? Or do we have to reinstall Samba ? BTW: We have no backup .... cheers, Andy

Hi guys, I am trying to migrate my NT 4 users to samba and these are the steps that I used for installing samba.

Hi Jerry/Samba Team I have Samba 3.0.10 installed on Solaris8 server and Samba-client-2.2.10 installed on Linux Red Hat2.1AS servers The Linux servers use Samba to mount filesystems from Solaris8 server. My question is how to find out on the Solaris8 server which Linux servers are using Samba to mount from. Because it is hideous to go to every Linux server and see which Solaris8 server they are

Hello: I have set up a PDC using Samba 3.0.11 with openldap 2.2.23. I have set up a BDC as well (the smb.conf is same as those on PDC except the nebios name as "BDC" and the domain master is set as "no"). Then I try to shut down my PDC to check whether the client login through the BDC. I found that my client (on Window NT) are able to authenticated by BDC, but it keeps

Hi, Did this issue get resolved? Can someone tell me how it was resolved and what needs to be done? I am running into the same issue. Thanks, Prakash

Hi, I have setup samba 3.0.7 with LDAP and NetApps Filers as our file store. We are going to lots of departmental shares, firstly we want only people from their own dept to have access to their department share, but users from other departments may need access to other dept shares, i would like to set up permissions on each dept share so a group is applied, then every user is added to the

Hello all! I have spent a lot of time chasing down what I think is a bug in smbldap-tools. It seems like many other people have experienced the same problem too. It was pretty hard to triage so I'm writing it down here. The symptom of the problem is that Windows machines cannot join your Samba+LDAP PDC. When you try to change the domain Windows pops up a dialog box saying "no such

I have tried everything that I know of. I have reviewed the services file and the swat file in xinetd.d a tun of times. It appears, via netstat that swat is listening on port 901. However when I attempt to access it via the Mozilla browser on my Fedora server (with 127.0.0.1:901 or localhost:901) nothing happens. It just sits there. However, if I access it via webmin (which has swat stored

Not sure if this is where I should ask about this, but if I try to run any of the smbldap-* scripts, I get the following kind of output: oink:/usr/local/sbin # ./smbldap-populate Using builtin directory structure erreur LDAP: Can't contact master ldap server (IO::Socket::INET: Bad protocol 'tcp') at /usr/local/sbin//smbldap_tools.pm line 153. I feel like this must be from a typo

Hi. When I tried to setup my LDAP I used the smbldap-tools from idealx. I discovered some errors which made the tools unusable for me. Here's a fix for the bugs I discovered: a) I decided to use a suffix in the LDAP which contains spaces, ie. I used something like "o=My Org,c=DE". Because the suffix wasn't quoted in the various calls in the tools, this didn't work. b) It

Doesn't anyone here know how to authenticate hosts in the group 'Domain Controllers' such that you don't have to set 'ldap admin dn' to the ldap server's root dn? What's the big deal? Why is this such a secret? Everytime I ask about it I get dead silence. It doesn't seem to matter what list I am on either. Jim C. --

Hello, Specifications of the environment: Samba 3.0.13 running on Solaris 8. This is configured as a domain member of a NT4 style PDC. The smb.conf file is provided for details. Problem definition: When trying to access the Samba server from a windows machine through network neighborhood, the system challenges the user for their credentials. On providing the username/password the system rejects

Hi, We are migrating from an NT domain to a 2003 AD and using the migration tools to nicely move the users across. However, we have just realized that a user created manually can see a samba 2.0.6 server no worries, but a user that has been migrated using the Migration Tools gets an access denied. Anybody come across this one before? It's probably some bodj work around from

Dear all, sorry if this is a bit on the sidetrack for R-help. As a regular R user I have developed quite a lot of custom R functions, to the point of not always remembering what I have already programmed, where the file is and so on. I was wondering what other people do in this regards. A basic file with all your functions, or a custom R package, or directly integrated into a profile file
