Hello, Since I upgraded my samba PDC from 3.0.11 to 3.0.13, I have some strange warnings when changing the passwords with 'smbpasswd' (it works, but gives these messages): # smbpasswd <username> New SMB password: Retype new SMB password: account_policy_get: tdb_fetch_uint32 failed for field 4 (maximum password age (seconds since 1970)), returning 0 account_policy_get:

Hi folks, Be gentle - first time I've posted to this list! ;-) I'll try and be complete. If I missed something, please let me know. I've googled and found some information, but nothing *quite* relevant. Running Fedora Core 6. Been using Samba for a long time, it's always been problem free. Since the Fedora upgrade to 3.0.24-4.fc6 (I know this is something specific to

Hello, During a re-start of Samba I got the following error: [2006/03/22 12:36:14, 0] passdb/pdb_tdb.c:tdbsam_tdbopen(196) Unable to open/create TDB passwd [2006/03/22 12:36:14, 0] passdb/pdb_tdb.c:tdbsam_getsampwrid(490) pdb_getsampwrid: Unable to open TDB rid database!

Hi every one, sorry for bad english and thanks. I'm starting using linux, sorry if i ask something simple.

hi all, I'm facing a problem with a brand new installation on fedora 9. packages were updated right after the installation, so the samba packages are of the latest available version (3.2.0-17.fc9). at the first run were created all the tree of tdb files under /var/lib/samba. now I create a new user: [root@barbara Scrivania]# smbpasswd -a barbara New SMB password: Retype new SMB password:

Hi, i never post in this list before becouse all the developers did a great job before, but now i have a problem. I used samba 3.0.x for a long time without any problem with openldap as passwd backend, now with samba 3.0.12 there are stange message when i try to change account's passwd: # smbpasswd Administrator New SMB password: Retype new SMB password: account_policy_get: tdb_fetch_uint32

First thank you to the team for the Samba software. I have been using this on a number of sites with excellent results and very few problems over the years. I have just upgraded two sites to Samba 3.0.13 from 3.0.11. Both sites are small and use smbpasswd as the password db backend. Since the upgrade I am unable to change a users password (as root) using smbpasswd. There are two reported

I am trying to get SAMBA to run on a custom ARM 922T compatible micro controller. It does not matter how I try to start smbd (smbd -D -d10 or smbd i -d10) smbd keeps panicking at the same point with an INTERNAL ERROR: Signal 6. I have spent over a day trying to figure out what could be wrong but I am having no success. If someone could at least give me a clue as to what smbd is trying to do at

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

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 =

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

I've only got LDAP configured as a passdb type in my smb.conf, but samba appears to be completely ignoring that and creating an /etc/samba/smbpass file (full output of that at the bottom) my smb.conf has: ldap admin dn = "cn=Admin,dc=byramhealthcare,dc=com" ldap ssl = off passdb backend ldapsam:ldap://ldapmaster.byramhealthcare.com ldap delete dn = no ldap user suffix =

Hopefully, you can help me out. I'm trying to figure out why I'm getting the error I get. From the debug output, it looks like it's adding the objectClass to the user (so they can get the sambaSID attribute attached to them), but it's not actually happening. The schema is, obviously, in the LDAP server in question. Any thoughts? D # smbpasswd -D 99 -a testuser Netbios name

Dear friends, I failed to buld samba 3.0.30 for tru64unix 4.0F. I am curently locked to this os version due to other production software. We currently run Samba 2.2.8a but we were requested to upgrade by our network group. I downloaded 3.3.30 and did $ cd source $ ./configure no warnings or errors as far as I could see, except checking for replacing readdir using getdirentries()...

I have just replaced an old FC9 server with a new FC14 server as the old one died. Before it died I was having trouble authenticating connections to it. Now I have the new server running I'm still suffering the same problem. Setting up a user and setting the password gives no errors, but then connections fail complaining about the password. It is very much a virgin vanilla setup. All I
