hi i am experiencing some problem with the configuring of samba as a PDC in a NT-network, ive configured samba as PDC, created users, set there password with smbpasswd and mapped unixgroup to nt group as follows: System Operators (S-1-5-32-549) -> -1 Domain Users (S-1-5-21-3614578222-3141096634-3044101766-513) -> root Replicators (S-1-5-32-552) -> -1 Guests (S-1-5-32-546) -> -1 Power

i've tried to set the maximum age of passwords with: root@servlan:~# pdbedit -P "maximum password age" -C 8035200 account policy value for maximum password age was 8035200 account policy value for maximum password age is now 8035200 but if try to see the accounts with: pdbedit -L -v i get this: Unix username: nicola NT username: Account Flags: [U ] User

Please how can I set user types in a Samba PDC? (users, power users, etc) My problem is that domain users have now administrator rights on the clients, and I don't want that! Thank you, -- Enos

Hi, We have a Windows Domain and a few Linux boxes on which we have installed Samba and set them up so people can log in using their windows domain logins using winbind etc. All is working fine EXCPECT for the group memberships. I have a windows user who is a member of the "Domain Admins" group and I want them to have root privilegdes on the UNIX box. I added a group mapping using

I have configured a domain controller in samba 3.0.xxx. I followed the how-to at samba.org and I think I may have missed a step because now when I attempt to add a machine to the domain, I get an error. I am using tdbsam as the user/group store. I ran the net group map to make windows groups to unix groups. I have verified that my administrator users are in group wheel. I do not use the map

I am attempting to setup a RHEL4 client to authenticate against a Windows 2003 R2 Active Directory Domain Controller. I am following the Samba HowTo Chapter 24 on Winbind, and everything works until I try to list out users from the AD.

Hello, I've changed my Samba Server 2.2.7a on a Mandrake 9.1 (2.4.21) for a Samba server 3.0.20-3.1 (with samba-vscan-clamav-3.0.20-3.1) on a Mandrake 2006 (2.6.12). I've always used for the samba clients (WXP pro) the logon scripts created by make_logon_script. In this script, I used to use the commands listed below: net use K: \\PDC\share route add <network> mask <mask>

Hi everybody, I got a problem here with my Samba ADS member server. It functions as a file server and works for a long time. A few weeks ago our Active Directory domain controller failed due to power outage. We fixed it and now an employee reports that he could not use the samba file server any more. I restarted samba service and did the following testing: 1) getent passwd <thisUser>

OK before i start, this was something i was just testing while everyone was in training this afternoon. I have never had to deal with subnets before as we only have a few users, but decided to do a little bit of messing around to gain some experience. Basically we have one server (mandriva 2006) running samba, it has two 4 port ethernet cards in it but only utilitising one port from each card.

Hi, I use winbindd and to use it I write my Active Directory Domain Controller in the "password server" directive in smb.conf. Since I have not one but two servers (for failover situations), can I write another password server?

I feel I should know the answer to this, but I wanted to verify. I have a bunch of Windows PC's running Win 2K Pro, on three subnetworks. Two of the subnets are served by Unix (FreeBSD) boxes running NATD, but all are joined to a domain being run on a Win 2K Pro server in another building on the campus. So far I haven't joined the two Unix boxes to the domain. I'd like to

Small HDs (2.1, 3.5, 4.2) GB and using Debian Sarge (3.1), with kernel 2.6, CUPS and Samba 3.0.10. The print part is ok, works fine and it is just information to the background.

Hello, I'm having trouble when I try do get a group SID from my domain, the user lookup and authentication is working fine. Actually what I'm trying to do is to authenticate squid against MS AD using winbind. I need to restrict access by group, so I'm using wbinfo_group.pl to do it.

Hi there, I use FC5. I discovered, for an exemple, if you have a user group with 3 members (Alan, Baker, Clive), before 3.0.23c this line at smb.conf worked fine: valid users = @user But with 3.0.23c update it doesn't work anymore. You have to replace the line like this: valid users = Alan, Baker, Clive I mean, replace the "@groupname" with the complete userlist of the
