Hi all, I use tdbsam backend. When I create a box for win2k machine: # pdbedit -a -m -u machine$ tdb_update_sam: SAM_ACCOUNT (machine$) with no RID! Unable to add machine! (does it already exist?) What is wrong? Other failer message: Unable to open TDB rid database! Regards, Roland

OK. I've given up on using the 'net vampire' feature to suck our NT4 info. Now I want to start afresh. I've set the smb.conf file up, and run the script I found in the HTML docs to map common Windows Domain groups to unix groups. This worked OK. Now I want to create a root account so I can actually join the domain from a Windows 2000 client. When I run:

Hi, I have a question regarding an issue I am having with our new Samba PDC. We used to be running an NT domain controller and about two months ago, I made the transition to a Debian linux box running Samba. The PDC is currently running Samba 3.0.8. My samba PDC is using the tdbsam backend and, for the most part is working flawlessly. However, when using smbpasswd to add samba accounts, I

Hi there, I'm trying to import a smbpasswd-file into a Samba 3.0 installation on Debian Sarge using tdbsam as sole passdb backend. Copying pdbedit's documentation I used pdbedit -i smbpasswd:/root/smbpasswd.old The error message returned was tdb_update_sam: Failing to store a SAM_ACCOUNT for [foo] without a primary group RID where foo is the username to be imported. This message was

The exact configuration mentioned below used to work on rhel3, and when updated to rhel4 it stopped working... when visited the samba log file, there was this error : useradd: invalid user name 'wpvm01$' rpc_server/srv_samr_nt.c:_samr_create_user(2272) could not add user/computer wpvm01$ to passdb.

Hello Anytime I try to do anything with the root user (like join the domain) or run 'net user' or 'net group' with root, when I enter the correct password, I get NT_STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL .... I've been trying more commands, and if I run tdbedit -e=tdbsam (to export the smbpasswd to tdbsam style), I get this error : tdb_update_sam: Failing to store a SAM_ACCOUNT for [root]

Why would I have some NT domains more than once? Did I screp up my import with the Vampire? Should I delete the unmapped ones (Gulp!)

Hi All, I have a setup using tdbsam as a backend, I can add accounts using pdbedit -a <username> but I have only been able to add one machine account. I can't figure out why. # pdbedit -a -m test tdb_update_sam: SAM_ACCOUNT (test$) with no RID! Unable to add machine! (does it already exist?) I have verified that there is no entry in /etc/passwd or /etc/shadow for the machine name I

Working with Samba 3.0 on rh9. Set up samba to use tdbsam (small network, maybe 30-40 users tops) and be a PDC for the internal network. Will be joining machines to this domain. My smb.conf file has been configured to use tdbsam as the backend, and with an add machine script, add user script, etc. However, using the command: pdbedit -a jdoe results in "could not create account to

I apologise now if I have managed to completely misunderstand this whole subject! I've built a small PC and loaded Etch 4.0 from the netinst cd. I did 'apt-get install asterisk-bristuff' which seemed to work but, it doesn't seem to have installed any files/modules for zaptel? ztcfg zaptel zaphfc I am using a billion hfc card Any pointers? -- Simon Faulkner 01538 303 900

Samba 3.6.2 My Domain Admins, including root, don't get admin permissions on local PCs. My Windows 7 clients can join the domain but when I look in the Administrators group it shows the sid for the Domain Admins group (RID = 512) and the icon has a question mark net groupmap list seems OK Any ideas where to look next?

Hi all ! This is a patch for Group mapping bug #1 reported here : http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba-technical/2004-January/034057.html It activates users' primary group SID update when adding/modifying/deleting a group mapping. It patches utils/net_groupmap.c (net_groupmap_add, net_groupmap_modify, net_groupmap_delete) and can be applied to samba-3.0.2rc1. net_groupmap_add : Scan users

Hi Folks, I have upgraded my very stock Ubuntu 8.04.4 running 3.0.28a to 3.6.2 by compiling in place as per these notes: http://www.jeremycole.com/blog/2009/12/01/upgrade-samba-3-0-28a-to-3-4-3-on-ubuntu-8-04-lts/ Worked a treat - big respect to the team.
