Hi, maybe this is a newbie-question, but ... here we go: I read the documentation for winbindd several times now but didn't get far. We run Samba as primary domain controller for several dozen clients and over 3000 users and never used winbind, so my question is quite simple: What does winbind provide and when do i need it? I assume that winbind is only used when i use samba as a client in

Obviously I am missing something and I don''t know what it is... I am following the instructions at http://rubyforge.org/docman/view.php/381/114/activeldap_rb.html and also here... http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/HowtoAuthenticateViaLdap my model looks exactly like this... class LdapUser < ActiveRecord::Base ldap_mapping :dnattr => ''uid'', :prefix

Hi, is it possible to realize the following scenario? And if yes: how? ;) The current setup is as follows: We have a Samba 3 server on a linux machine as PDC and an OpenLDAP server as passdb backend (on the same host). All users and groups were inserted via the SMBLDAP tools by IDEALX. So far, so good. Everything runs fine. Now our plan is it to use another, external LDAP server for pure

Everyone, We currently are running a Centos3 directory server, I am currently testing centos4 as an upgrade of this machine in the future. There is a special user we have called cn=samba,ou=special in our directory, this user is for samba to use when binding to the directory. On the production replica server, i have taken an offline slapcat ldif of the entire tree. I then copied this file to

Anyone out there using ActiveLDAP have an idea how I can accomplish creating an object one level below a known base where we have a variable item in the middle? That first sentence doesn''t even make sense to me. Here''s what I want to do: I have a user class that I use for managing users. Each user gets a ou called addressbook (which in turn will contain sub-entries, but

SAMBA (version 3.0.1) works on Solaris server very well, however, it looks like not support ACL. When users copy/over-write a file from Windows PC through SAMBA to Solaris, ACL will disappear. Any suggestion or advice will be greatly appreciated. --------------------------------------------- smb.conf --------------------------------------------- #============== Global Settings

Hi all, I'm running icecast and use ices to stream mp3's to the server. The user can search a database with english audio files ( it's for schools, so nothing fancy ) and then klick on a play-button ( Anhören ) to stream the selected title . But no matter what file is selected I only get the first entry in the playlist. I use the builtin-playlist-handler. You can test it

Hello list, I am struggling with setting up dovecot 2.1.7 with samba 4.1.2 on debian wheezy. Dovecot should authenticate via LDAP, but I?cannot get it to work reliably. Sometimes auth works, sometimes not. Referals are already activated in ldap.conf ? LDAP-authentication works fine with other clients (Apache Directory Studio, ?)? Has somebody got a similar setup running? I would love some hints

Hi all, some years ago i configured a `Primary Domain Controller` through Samba and LDAP (slapd) on an Ubuntu machine (13.10) at 192.168.69.203 which should be accessible by the string/name `SRV1`. I must note i did not installed winbind. I've never had any issue and it looks like it's working fine as about 10 Windows machines joined the PDC and Windows users can login against PDC on

Hi, thanks a lot for the tips. I already did the first one, importing the following into the registry: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanManWorkstation\Parameters] "DomainCompatibilityMode"=dword:00000001 "DNSNameResolutionRequired"=dword:00000000 I didn't do the second tip but it looks like it's not

I was trying to fix a problem on Windows 10 with Outlook 2013. Also running an NT4-style domain. The machine had already been joined to the domain and outlook had been working but recently not (probably after patch tuesday.) I also had had problems with Win 10 mail and RDP. I came across the following link.

Hi All, i want to make an extension from pbx1 able to tlak to another extension from pbx2 or use pbx2's trunk to dial outside calls. so i edited in both servers accordinally the iax.conf: register => pbx1:pass at 172.16.200.175 <pbx1%3Apass at 172.16.200.175> [pbx2] type=friend host=dynamic trunk=yes sercret=pass context=[default] ; i used the biggest context to avoid confusion as

You should be able to unbind ipv6 for the win 10 machine's network interface. does "nslookup SRV1" work? Also, you may want to try running tcpdump or ethereal or wireshark on our PDC and see what traffic is captres.

Excuse me for the little flood please, i've just checked it again and now i see SRV1 as master for exedra.cat workgroup, i event can see in the logs Samba name server SRV1 is now a local master browser for workgroup EXEDRA.CAT on subnet 192.168.69.203 So i'll keep digging on how to fix the issue exposed on my first email, tomorrow i'll try to see wether it's an IPV6 issue or

Hello! Our users change their passwords using the original Win2K password change mechanisms (Ctrl+Alt+Del -> Change Password). If one of the users changes his password and the new one is shorter then 5 characters it is rejected. This appears in the logfile and that's OK so far but the users don't get notified. They think the password has changed and use the new one. Why is that? Could

Hi, thanks a lot for your reply. Yes, i enabled wins through "wins support = yes", i also enabled lmhosts lookup and wins on all clients but will check it as you proposed. Tomorrow will try to disable ipv6 on Windows clients following this link https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/929852 Which process did you follow to disable IPV6? I'm also wondering if it's really necessary
