My Samba Server had a wild time this weekend thanks to alleged power fluctuations. I'm using Samba 3.x on Fedora 4. My server sits on an APC UPS that remains in good health. When I arrived this Monday I found that my MicroTik Router was still up. My Win XP pro AV server was off and my Fedora/SAMBA box was also off. (all boxes have their own 15min UPS) The Win XP pro was brought up w/out

Hello. New to SAMBA.(2.2.8 on RH9) Mixed environment of 98 & (trying) XP. My "net use s: /home" command works wonderfully for XP and 98. But XP throws in an "extra" "more home-than-home" directory - namely \username\.win_profile on the Z drive. I've tried disconnecting it with: net use Z: /delete, but XP claims to have a process running on it (even after 10

System Fedora Core 4/SeLinuxSecurity disabled SAMBA 3.0.20 PDC unix password sync=yes passwd backend smbpasswd Problem - Users logged into XP pro cannot change password Detail: When a user tries to change their password they get the error message: "You do not have permission to change your

Hello. I am trying to set up SAMBA 3.x on FC4. SAMBA will be PDC with no other server. I work at a K-12 school, so unless I want 20 episodes of "Family Guy" in a student's folder, I need to set quotas. I've been looking around for 2 days and I'm stumped. I found something called smbcquotas, but it seems to apply to a mixed NT server environment. I heard rumors of configure

Samba version: 4.1.9 Using the idmap_rid backend Case: A Windows AD security group has a historical SID (sidHistory) whose RID matches the RID of a user in the "current domain" For example: (Note the different domain portions of the SID) Current SID of group G: S-1-5-21-1405700021-3363460546-1698178416-30661 Historical SID of group G:

Hi Guys, Just a quick one...I use ldap backend for samba users and unix(PAM+NSS) users. If I was creating a new user/group/computer manually do the RID and UID/GID have to match up somehow or something?? I mean I've been reading somewhere that that RID should be somethings like UID+2x1000 or something?? Algorithmicbase?? Whats this all about? Am I making any sense? Cheers, Rhys

Hey all, I'm looking to merge multiple NT4 domains into a single infrastructure based on Samba3 and OpenLDAP on Linux of the Debian Sarge flavour (and, Bob willing, Samba4 before long). In order to allow some resources to be shared from a single Linux instance, I'm rather hoping that I can put every domain's information into a single LDAP DIT. The Samba PDCs will use only portions of

I have a bunch of Windows users using a Win2k server as a PDC. I want to move all the server functions to a Samba server without disturbing the users in any way. The client machines are all Win2k, using local profiles. Samba insists on algorithmicly generating the RID from the UID, so the Windows user, after migration, gets a new SID and loses contact with their local profile. In fact, they

Hey everyone, I'm preparing for a transition in which I'll be moving everything (PDC, WINS server, big file shares) off an old Linux server running Samba 2.2.7 onto a much newer Linux system running Samba 3.0.22. In the process, I'll be switching from smbpasswd (only thing supported under Samba 2.x, if I understand correctly) to ldapsam on Samba 3.x. I want to keep the same domain

I maintain a heterogenous network with a shared LDAP account database. The user accounts have globally unique user names, UIDs and RIDs. Some, but not all accounts are valid on all machines, but there is no need for samba to care about this, because there simply won't be a unix account for invalid users. There are no MS servers involved, and because every samba server has the same user account

Is there any SIMPLE way to maintain consistent mappings between windows RIDs and UNIX/LINUX UIDs/GIDs among multiple samba servers servers running winbindd? Will that problem be addressed in future samba releases? I've read about the "idmap backend" possible solution but is that the only current one? Help!!!

When I set up my initial users for the Samba domain i did not realize that RIDs were supposed to be dynamic. I was creating the user as a posixAccount in LDAP, and then adding the Samba elements via a script that I wrote. Their RIDs are the same as their UID. For instance if I have a user with uidNumber 1036, her SID would be <domain-SID>-1036. This is fine except for idmapping for

The exisiting label= option offer to boot on a gpt partition that have a particular label. The existing guuid= option offer to boot on a disk or partition with a particular label. This new option offer to boot the disk that have a partition which have a given label. The label is so just a way to detect a disk to boot. A typical use is for making an intelligent localboot like : label

Ok. I am trying to "net rpc vampire" from my current AD domain into a ldapsam password backend so I can get the user SID to preserve profiles. I am aware that HKEY_USERS holds that SID as well. In my test environment, the SID for userA in the AD domain when taken from HKEY_USERS and put into userA's ldap entry as sambaSID preserves the profile correctly, also the last digits of
