similar to: add machine script problem

Hello All, I am having a very strange problem with samba 3.0.23c. I upgraded everything from 3.0.9 and I am able to smbclient to the samba 3.0.23c PDC with the administrator user just fine. When I go to add a machine to the domain, it adds the unix machine account to the ou=computers like it is supposed to but none of the samba entries are added. I get an error on the windows side of

Hello I'm trying to add new Samba users to my LDAP using smbpasswd but this happens: --------------------------------------------------------------------- s02:/etc/samba# smbpasswd -D 256 -a tester44a Netbios name list:- my_netbios_names[0]="S02" Trying to load: ldapsam:ldap://localhost Attempting to register passdb backend ldapsam Successfully added passdb backend 'ldapsam'

Just tried with Samba3.0beta2 as PDC with LDAP backend. Machine still cannot automatically join domain. Workstation entry added to LDAP via add machine script but got access denied during the join. A join immediately following the first join succeeded. Here is the trace in the smbd log. [2003/07/07 11:43:06, 5] auth/auth_util.c:debug_unix_user_token(494) UNIX token of user 0 Primary group is

freebsd 5.3, samba 3.10 I get this far with LDAP/Samba integrationg. Stuck on creating users/machines with smbpasswd -a (-m) username command. schema files weren't modified, everything else is pretty much at defaults. First the relevant config parts: passdb backend = ldapsam_compat:ldap://localhost/ ldap suffix = dc=company,dc=com ldap machine suffix = ou=Computers ldap user suffix =

I can't really guess the point of your intelligent answer from this. If I have to assume you're surprised, I guess I am too. The cn exists in ldap, with all the attributes that I imported from other databases, the message given by smbpasswd suggests that it either tried to create an entry or update it with sambaaccount attributes ( which it didn't ), neither of which are the expected

I have been working on this for weeks now and feel like I am at a dead-end. I am using Samba 3.0 (Head) and OpenLDAP (2.0) and smbldap-tools 0.7 and cannot join either a Linux machine or Windows 2000 machine to the domain. If any of you have some ideas they would be much appreciated. Highlights: - I have a root defined (UID and GID of 0). - Trying to join the domain will successfully add my

I am trying to join a windows server (Nt4 or 2K) to a Samba-LDAP PDC.

Hello, I recently switched an environment from Samba 2.x to 3.0 without any major problems. LDAP database was converted and everything worked fine, _including_ chaning passwords with smbpasswd. However, I now had to create a new account, which failed. I created an LDAP entry first, because I use LDAP for Unix-Authentification as well. Afterwards, I wanted to add the Samba-specific attributes

Hi! I am seeing other users with the same problem as I have. My samba also fails to add machine accounts. It seems to me if it didn't even try. If I use some other script (pdbedit, smbldap-tools) than smbpasswd it manages to add the account but still fails to authenticate within the same session. If I try again the machine account exists and authentication goes ok. server:~# smbpasswd -a -m

I have an urgent need, Is it possible to connect an NT4 Standalone server to a Samba-LDAP PDC ?? I am trying to do that but keep getting the same error when trying to change an NT4 standalone server to the Samba-LDAP PDC. Error message : The machine account for this computer either does not exist or is inaccessible. log.smbd : [2004/08/10 22:29:03, 5] lib/smbldap.c:smbldap_search(932)

The solution is quite simple: You need to configure pam-nss for samba to work. Essentially samba is using a 'getent' call to look up computers independent is configured as passdb backend. That means the pam-nss must be configured for samba to find the computer entries in ldap. I find this very much counter-intuitive ! Thanks to Tom Crummey <tom@ee.ucl.ac.uk> and John Drescher

Hi, all! I'm using samba-3.0.23 (Revision: 16921, from ports collection, under FreeBSD 6.1 with OpenLDAP 2.3.24 & smbldap-tools-0.9.2a) as PDC with following config: [global] dos charset = CP1251 unix charset = KOI8-R workgroup = DOMAIN server string = Samba Server password server = passdb backend = ldapsam passwd program =

I'm attemtping to configure a Ubuntu server for a bunch of windows clients. I'd like the authentication information to be in ldap.So far the stuff works, I can authenticate users in LDAP just fine. But when I want a windows machine to join the domain I get the error 'The user name could not be found'. The computer account gets created (via smbldap-tools) and I can see it in the

When I try to join a domain from a win2k client to a samba 3.0.5 PDC, I get the message "User not found". I use ldapsam, which works fine in all other respects. The strange thing is that the smbldap-useradd scripts terminates with 0, the machine account is created under "ou=systems" in the ldap database - all looks fine. Then a ldap search is triggered with a base

Hi all, I have smb.conf with: add machine script = /usr/local/sbin/smbldap-useradd -w "%u" add user script = /usr/local/sbin/smbldap-useradd -m "%u" add machine script = /usr/local/sbin/smbldap-useradd -w "%u" add group script = /usr/local/sbin/smbldap-groupadd -p "%g" add user to group script = /usr/local/sbin/smbldap-groupmod -m "%u"

Hi, since nobody answered my previous post I'm hoping to get an answer for this one, I have a working samba PDC with LDAP backend, recently i tried to add a W2k Workstation to the domain using root account and it returned with a wrong password, but i am able to login using the same account to the server, I've tried changing the password to join the doain and it worked again, but I'd

Hello, I have some problems trying to configure a PDC with OpenLDAP backend using Samba 3.0.1. My LDAP server is working fine and has the samba templates. I am able to configure users. The procedure I am using is I first create the user in the LDAP server using posixAccount, shadowAccount, etc. Then, as root, I write smbpasswd -a user and it works fine. I get the same effect if I use

Greetings. Since this is my first post to this list, hello everyone. Here's an issue concerning the ldapsam backend. I'm having a problem with the "ldap user suffix" param not being honored as expected. Specifically, when a user logs on, the "ldap user suffix" is ignored and the ldapsam backend attempts to lookup the user doing a full subtree search in the context
