Hello List, I've been running into the following winbind problem and would really appreciate if anyone could give me a hint here: I'm currently using Samba 2.2.7a as a fileserver (domain member), user-authentication is done on a WinNT 4.0 PDC.

I keep getting the following errors when I try to log on to my domain or access a share (some how I have no clue I was able to get one computer to access the samba domain).

I'm running Samba with LDAP on SuSE. Users had trouble logging in - finally I just ran db_recover & restarted ldap and samba. It looks like the LDAP database got corrupted somehow because samba couldn't get the LDAP data. Also I created accounts with smbldap-useradd -m -a -B 1 username. Some of the users were just using the same password samba seemed to kick them out. I used

Hi everybody, I have one SAMBA server (with PDC configuration) which is configure to use an OpenLDAP server (on the same local server) where users and computers account are store (I want to have the two Unix/Linux and Samba account attributes stored to use Name Service Switch and Pluggable Authentication Module).

Hi folks, Just yesterday, my Samba installation on OpenSlug suddenly stopped working, out of the blue. Now, users on my WinXP SP2 systems cannot under any circumstances log in to the domain. Local Windows users however can map shares with no problem. When a domain user attempts to log on to a domain member PC (joining the domain works fine, by the way), they are denied with the generic Windows

Hello, I've just installed samba with ldap on a debian etch.

Hi, I could use some confirmation on my approach to configuring my BDC. I want the user to be able to access shares on the BDC and have their domain credentials stamped on any files they create. I do not want to add domain users to the /etc/passwd file. At the moment users can authenticate onto the domain but once they try and access a share on the BDC, these XP users get a dialogue box asking

Dear colleagues, I?m trying to replace an NT 4.0 PDC with a Samba 3 RedHat Enterprise Server. Following some instructions on the web I get almost everything (users, groups) using the "net vampire" command. The shares are working and it seems to be working fine.
