Thanks, Unfortunately, I still got the same error. I may be wrong, but it is like it does the automatic lookup process of kdc instead of using the krb5.conf file. However, as per my note below, if I do add bad config info to the krb5.conf, it does complain.

Folks, Sincere apologies for asking this again, but I'm just not getting this to work, and must be missing something here: My company's network is based around a Windows 2003 server AD, with several RHEL AS 3 boxes connected to it via samba (3.0.21c-1). ?This scheme works very well. ?I've set up, and have successfully been using a sendmail-based email system, too. My issue is

Serious apologies if this has been discussed before, but my search didn't turn up much: I have samba (kept up-to-date with latest) running on several CentOS 3 and 4 boxes as part of a Win2k3 domain. On one particular box, winbind dies on a regular basis (all the other installations run flawlessly). A quick restart, and we're good again. However, as this is a very active server

Hello to all. I want to use winbind to automatically create email accounts. I've added several linux boxes to our win2k3 AD and working pretty well (more in a new post about this). When I create a new user on the win2k3 box, users can access various shares on the linux boxes, as it should be. I also have a sendmail server sitting in a DMZ. I have to create the email user account on

Ok I deleted the incorrect conf file and set it up using Yast again here is the amended file. I tried using the IP address of the server this time but I'm still getting the same errors as before.

Hi, all. I'm working on a project to create a Samba PDC with LDAP authentication. I've been pretty successful in getting everything to work. However, I've run into a small snag: The PDC is built on an OpenSuse 11.2 box. Most of the member servers are also OpenSuse 11.2 boxes. However, a CentOS 5.5 server was just added to the mix. While users can lo into the CentOS box,

Having read a few posts recently I thought I would do some testing. Given XP's use of 445 and that I have a couple of networks where they only have XP clients, I thought I would try setting smb ports to 445 only rather than that suggested of just specifying 139. This has worked well for XP clients with SP2. However SP1, and presumably pre-SP1 clients, lose all sight of the NBT network.

Hi. I don't find a way to make a Samba BDC replicate an AD Server. I need to authenticate in Samba BDC if my link with AD PDC goes down. I read that it is not possible. Is this true ? Samba 4 will do this ? Thanks, **-- Marcelo H. Terres mhterres@gmail.com

I am having a hard time getting Samba to authentication correctly against a Windows Active Directory setup. Here is a snap of the smb.conf [global] passdb backend = ldapsam security = domain password server = server1.com server2.com prefered master = No local master = no hide unreadable = yes wins support = no winbind use default

Hi, I was wondering if a Samba BDC should be able to create users and computer accounts when connecting to a LDAP PDC server? Should the add scripT lines be included in a BDC's smb.conf file? Normally, as far I know, BDC should just log on users. Or am I wrong? Thanks,

Hello! I want to create BDC with smbpasswd backend, just because I run ldap master on the same machine as PDC and I don't think that using ldap backend will be far better for me. Only thing I don't understand: I read in howto: <quote> Machine Accounts Keep Expiring This problem will occur when the passdb (SAM) files are copied from a central server but the local Backup

Hi, We have an old domain with a samba-3 PDC and LDAP backend in our HQ and two BDC in our branch offices. Since we don't use the domain in our HQ anymore and one of the branches will be moved to our new domain (2003/2008) I'm thinking about decomissioning the PDC and promote both BDCs as PDC for their branch offices and networks. I would also get rid of LDAP. Changing the backend to

I have a RH 7.2 PDC which uses DHCP for 2 machines on the network. My Win9x machine as a client/BDC just in case and uses a static IP. If the PDC goes down. I have to put in or take out the PDC's gateway IP and was wondering if there was a way to get ONLY the info I need from DHCP to the Win machine. To attempt to clarify, when the PDC is up, it will assign its gateway IP to the BDC (since it

Hello I have a network setup with one Samba PDC and two Samba BDCs separated by routers (ref http://www.cybersource.com.au/users/mikef/samba/). In this test environment the Samba servers all use the master OpenLDAP server on the PDC, but the production system will have OpenLDAP servers (using master-slave replication) on all Samba servers. I can't get the Windows XP client to change a

I have a Samba-LDAP PDC at an office and 5 BDC's at other offices. At corporate HQ I have a W2k Server and domain. I have properly configured an interdomain trust and Users in the Samba domain can get to sections on the W2k machine regardless of location. However, members in the W2K domain can only access shares on the PDC. Attempts to access shares on a BDC cause a user name

Hello! I configured samba BDC according to howto. PDC is in the same subnet. But I see that windows ( at least 2003 servers from the same subnet) sometimes connects to BDC to retrieve info about users. Now I use smbpasswd and machine accounts are in passwd. I'm afraid that will try to change their password too ;-) Could somebody explain me why windows behavoir?

OK - I'm actually functioning but I'm afraid and I want to fill in a knowledge gap - perhaps a slight gap in the How-To Book or my ability to soak in its' wisdom. LDAP up and working on two machines, master & slave and changes made in master can be found by ldapsearch on slave faster than two up arrows and a return (gosh, it only took me 10 days but the light bulb has definitely

Hi all, I have a BDC which uses the LDAP backend of my PDC. Unfortunately all the users who log-in in the morning and who are processed by this BDC, do not get their logon script executed. The BDC logs this error message: [2013/05/24 07:28:11.946577, 2] auth/auth.c:304(check_ntlm_password) check_ntlm_password: authentication for user [foobar] -> [foobar] -> [foobar] succeeded

Hello I makeing a Domain Controller with Samba (v3.0.33) and LDAP (v2.4). I will install a PDC in the headquarter and a BDC in the subsidiary of the company that I work. The PDC and the BDC will have his own LDAP data base. I just install the PDC without problems and my next step is to install the BDC. I configured the LDAP that work in multi master mode. I made some test and the LDAP works

Hi Is it possible to use single LDAP server and multiple samba servers? The problem I'm having now is Each server thinks their host name is their LDAP domain name, or sambaDomainName, and complain the user's SID is different so can't authenticate. How do I make samba servers use one domain name and SID? LDAP domain name is DOMSMB dn: sambaDomainName=DOMSMB,dc=my-domain,dc=com
