similar to: NetBIOS Name Resolution Problem?

Hi all ! I have a PDC and a BDC in 2 differents subnets. I would like to sync their browse list but it doesn't seem to work. Actually here are a part my smb.conf files : PDC ------------------------------ ... remote browse sync = 10.10.20.10 remote announce = 10.10.20.10 security = user encrypt passwords = true domain logons = Yes os level = 70 preferred master = yes domain master = yes

Hi, After lots of struggle and rtfm I finally got most things running, except for 'nmblookup' and 'net getlocalsid' on the BDC. I'm not new to Samba, but plenty more to learn. Here's the setup in summary: system pdc is the PDC on subnet 192.168.0.0, running SuSE10.1, LDAP master, wins server, domain master browser, no iptables; system bdc is the BDC on subnet 192.168.2.0,

Hello folks, The documentation for running Samba as a BDC clearly states that it is not operational with a Windows PDC [1], but this documentation covers Samba-3 and it was suggested in IRC by scooby2 that this functionality is now suported in Samba 4. Can anyone else confirm this? Should I use the documentation for Smaba BDC or is there more current documentation for this functionality?

Hi there. This is with regards to samba-3.0.23c, on FreeBSD 6.0-RELEASE-p12 Previously I had Samba up and running without any problems. Then I decided to do a tiny upgrade by simply switching to a new motherboard, while keeping all other hardware and software aspects the same. However, after the upgrade, netbios name resolution seems to have stopped working somehow. \\servername lookups no

Today we had a problem with our Win NT4 PDC and discovered numerous failover issues with our Samba file server. For starters, this is a Debian Etch machine running Samba-3.0.24-2. At this point, this is a critical production machine. Upgrading is on our to-do path, but is not an option for an immediate fix to this problem. With the exception of this problem, this Samba installation has been

I've used samba for the better part of 4 years now. Never had any real problems that were not easily resolved. Samba has become the single most important piece of software in our lab. It has reduced my administrative headaches considerably. However, now I have a real problem that I have no clue on. I'm running a Samba 2.2.8a PDC on Sun Solaris. About 2 months ago, we moved our lab from

I have the following PDC: Samba 3.0.37 on Solaris 10 BDC1: Samba 3.0.37 on Solaris 10 PDC is configured to be the WINS server for everything, including XP Pro clients and other Samba machines.

Hi, thank you for your answer. Yesterday I solved the problem. It turned out that getent passwd and getent group gave entries only from flat files. It related to nsswitch.conf and libnss-ldap. Former was ok, but later was different on the two servers. On the PDC, there was libnss-ldapd, but on the BDC there was libnss-ldap installed. According to the Debian Wiki, libnss-ldapd is simpler, and

Hello all, I'm using samba 2.2.7a with winbind on a RedHat 7.3 (pre-installed by Dell) server, with an NT PDC/BDC, with the NT PDC acting as the WINS server. Everything works fine on the local subnet 192.168.0.xxx, but we also have an IPSec VPN set up with our western call centre, and users on the western office subnet 192.168.10.xxx can't login to the samba shares. They can login to

Hi all, I'm rather new to samba and trying to deploy a PDC/BDC Setup for our company. Got some books and the manpages here to help me :) The config-files are attached at the end of this mail. Used Samba is 3.2.7-11.6 on a SLES11 system. The PDC is running as ROLE_DOMAIN_PDC says testparm, the BDC as ROLE_DOMAIN_BDC. Both DCs use a LDAP (OpenLDAP 2.4.12-7) for user authentication. The LDAP

Hi all, I set up a Samba server (version 3.0.24) names "Lamp" on a Debian Etch distribution. It provides a "guest" (guest ok = yes, guest only = yes, security = SHARE) access to a "share" directory, which works fine. Indeed, I can access \\lamp\share from a Windows machine (named "Ginger") without issuing a password. I can also ping the Linux machine

Hi all I have a samba 3.0.21c with openldap backend as PDC on subnet 192.168.129.0(mypdc). i have configured Backup Domain Controller on subnet 192.168.130.0(mybdc) subnet for the same domain. but if i do nmblookup from pdc to the bdc, it's getting failed and viceversa. and from bdc, >From BDC , we are unable to browse system added to PDC on the subnet 192.168.129.0. I have enabled IP

Hi everyone, I am struggling to promote a samba 3.0.10 standalone server to a BDC, because it cannot contact the PDC which is on a different subnet connected via a VPN. Having lost several days I believe this may be because it Samba is broadcasting WINS domain discovery requests on its local subnet, which of course it not reaching the PDC as broadcasts are not sent across the VPN. The PDC is

Our PDC accidentally crashed and to eliminate down time, I quickly set up one of the BDC to be the new PDC. I copied all the configuration file of PDC to the BDC. These files are slapd.conf, ldap.conf, smb.conf, etc.... Now that the PDC is up and running again, I want to put it back to the way it was since the BDC did not run to a functional state anyway. Here is a snippet of the debug when I

Hello, Is there *any* way to reliablily determine the NetBIOS name of a computer when you only know their IP address? I know it is very easy to find the IP address from the NetBIOS name, but I can't seem to find any way of getting a NetBIOS name from an IP.. James deBoer (jdeboer@scsinternet.com)
