[originally posted to fedora-users] I'm having difficulty getting samba/winbind to authenticate of a W2K3 box. I've searched the list archives and although there are some similar problems, none have seemed to help resolve this one. Here's the network configuration: - Windows 2003 Server gx270-rmaniar [192.168.0.100] - Fedora Core 3 gx280rmaniarFC3 [192.168.0.5] FYI: A Windows XP box

I'm trying to do something fairly simple: login to a Linux box using a Windows AD-based account. I've followed the various recipes available online for configuring Linux (winbind, PAM, etc.) to this send, and I've got it working ... almost. I'm able to authenticate an AD-based user immediately after bringing up the Linux box, but a short time later (roughly 5 minutes, but it

We're experiencing weird problems here: The Solaris guys have user-packages, so we had to do this too for the Linux boxes (7.0, 7.1). Since some of the accounts get "easy" passwords set at install time, they are expired at once: /usr/bin/chage -m 7 -M 84 -W 14 <user> Now, at login, the user is prompted: You are required to change your password immediately (root enforced)

Hey All, I am setting up a network of Asterisk servers using IAX2. I am wondering if it is possible to disable the handoff feature? At the moment I have 4 asterisk machines, 3 are at SOHO offices and 1 is centrally hosted in a data centre. In addition the central machine has an IAX2 link to a VOIP provider (and might be set up with more in the future). All calls are routed through that

Hi list I'm have a samba (2:3.5.4~dfsg-1ubuntu8.4) domain with LDAP backend and I'm getting the following error when I try to change my domain password via Windows XP: "The User name or old password is incorrect.

Hi List, I had a need recently to efficiently synchronise between some large LUNs (boot drive disks) at two different datacentres. Solutions like drbd and $proprietary_array_vendors_software were overkill - we only needed (wanted!) to periodically synchronise these LUNs whenever major changes were generated on the source. On the other hand however, re-sending the entire disk contents each time

I'm in the process of testing out sssd on a CentOS 6 install using Active Directory for user authentication via sssd All appears to be working fine - however, when I change a user password using 'passwd' (or at login when the account has expired etc), it appears pam_cracklib is being over-zealous with the new password requirements Active Directory is set up with a password policy
