Hi, Recently I have installed samba 3.4.8 on my device. Since then ftp (vsftp,proftpd) which is taking users from samba database with pam_smbpass.so is not working. After enabling detailed log I have noticed it is looking for the passwords in smbpasswd (/etc/samba/private) which is of zero size . I think all users passwd are located in passwd.tdb.I could fix this by giving "passdb

Hi everybody! I am having an issue regarding my samba/pam configuration. I am trying to sync my unix/samba passwords, but everything i found online doesn't help. My System runs Gentoo/Samba 3.5.8 as PDC(roaming profiles host and so on) , and WinXP Clients. Domainjoin and Login work fine. But I want to change the Passwords from the Windows interface. When I try to change the password using

Hi all, Is there any way to automatically update the samba password when a user changes his unix account password using the passwd command. I want samba to look in passwd file for authentication. I dont want to create two accounts one for local unix and then for the samba. I am not planning to deploy ldap as a solution. Is there any workaround. Anish

Hello, I am trying to keep my samba accounts in sync with my unix accounts. I want to login ssh. Syncing passwords works. Scenario: I create a new user: useradd -m testuser passwd testuser When I log in with the user pam_smbpass should create a corresponding samba user. I modified system-auth which is included in sshd: #### /etc/pam.d/system-auth auth requisite pam_unix.so

Has anyone got unix password sync for samba3.0.x running successfully on SLES8 server? Do I need the SLES service packs? Is there an interaction with PAM that I need to be aware of? I've compiled the full developer build of samba from 3.0.4-4 source. Compile was successful. I'm running tdbsam as password backend. I've troubleshooted quit a bit using google, docs, etc. as

Hello All, I have samba version 3.3.2 installed on a system running Ubuntu Server 9.04 (32-bit). The users trying to mount the samba shares authenticate over the LDAP server. Here is how my configuration files look like, 1. /etc/samba/smb.conf [global] server string = %h server (Samba, Ubuntu) map to guest = Bad User obey pam restrictions = Yes pam password change = Yes passwd program

I need to let my users change their password using PAM to preserve the existing ldap authentication system. How can I force pam to sync the smb password to the unix one. I am running Fedora 7 package on an x86-64 system. I have smb working via ldap and sambasam.schema (v3.0.24) I have unix password sync = yes but it should not come into play as I never plan to reset passwords via smbd. In

I migrated my config to a new server, and now logins against the AD server are failing. If I try the correct password, I get: check_ntlm_password: Authentication for user [yans] -> [yans] FAILED with error NT_STATUS_NO_SUCH_USER But if I try with a wrong password I get: check_ntlm_password: Authentication for user [yans] -> [yans] FAILED with error NT_STATUS_WRONG_PASSWORD Where do

Hello all. First, a little background... I recently downloaded samba-*-ldap-2.2.5-2mdk , installed on Mandrake 8.2 and got everything working fine. I have LDAP installed for "single sign-on" support. I can use LDAP to authenticate other Linux boxes, and have Samba as a PDC for some Win2000 boxes - all working fine. Linux users are the same as PDC users, except for their passwords

My company, which is a mac-heavy shop in the printing industry, needed to migrate to a faster file server. As our directory trees are very large, both Samba, and Netatalk were bogging down badly on our Linux server (Samba, due to heavy CPU usage during directory listings - the case-sensitive file system issue, and netatalk because the cnid db was getting too big). Our solution was to switch to a

Hi All, Has anyone used pam_smbpass before with Samba 3 and Solaris 9? The problem I am facing is that the sambaNTPassword/sambaLMPassword and the posixAccount userPassword attributes are not the same. While I can use "net rpc vampire" to migrate the lanman password hashes the posixAccount attribute remains unpopulated. I have discovered that the smbldap tools has scripts to

Hello, (I'm sorry for my previous message with the wrong subject; I'll just do it over again) I have a Solaris 10 machine (SunOS 5.10 Generic_118833-18 sun4u sparc) installed with Samba Version 3.0.23a. Samba has been compiled from source with PAM modules. The modules 'pam_smbpass.so' and 'pam_winbind.so' reside at: /usr/local/samba/lib/security smb.conf is located at

Hello, I am attempting to add a Redhat 9 box to our NT4 domain as a member server. I want to enumerate user and group info so I don't have to make two sets of user and group accounts. I've setup samba (version 2.2.7a) and pamd the way I think I'm supposed to, but wbinfo -u always returns 0xc0000022. I've found this particular error mentioned in a few articles, but applying the

Hello, Does anyone have a working pam configuration that allows gdm logins? My current config works with ssh and bash logins. I'd like gdm to work with usernames like DOMAIN\\USERNAME. MORE DETAIL: ------------------- I'm trying to get a Linux client (Ubuntu 8.04) to authenticate against a Samba domain controller (also Ubuntu8.04). WindowsXP clients work fine with the samba

Since I now have something which at least pretends to work, I suppose an announcement is in order. Those among you who track samba development are probably aware that samba 1.9.18p4 includes support for synchronising a unix database when changing an SMB password. I'm currently working on a PAM module which will provide similar functionality for all applications compiled with PAM support:
