Hi All, Has any one got an idea of how to make clients automatically find the BDC when the PDC is stopped. Both PDC and BDC are running by Samba authenticating again a LDAPSAM backend replicated on both the PDC with master LDAP database and BDC with replicated LDAP database. But when I stop PDC the clients are not detecting the BDC broadcast. I can see that the replication is of

Hi All, I am currently running two PDC's with different domain names on the same network. But after a day of smooth running I am starting to have problems with the users accessing the network resources with an error message. As far I understand there must not be such conflict with the Samba PDC's with different domain names on the same subnet. Can any one suggest what might

Greetings All. First let me introduce my situation Machine1: Pdc Samba + OpenLDAP(master) Machine2: Bdc Samba + OpenLDAP(slave) LDAP stores Samba and POSIX information for each user. Case1: I login to Machine1 and invoke smbpasswd. I change my passwords (samba and posix without any problem). In next few seconds they get propagated to Machin2 wher I can login with new credentials. ldap log

I'm sorry for asking a question which has been asked so many times before, but I can't seem to find the answer... How do I get to access my home directory on a Linux server running Samba from a Windows XP client? I'm getting "NT MD4 password check failed" in the log file even though the Windows client is listed in hosts.equiv. More information below... I have a small home

I was wondering how people sync the roaming profiles in an environment with a PDC and multiple BDCs. Are profiles better stored in another server (a member server) instead of the xDC? I could use rsync from the PDC to the BDC, but that doesn't work the other way around, i.e., when a user logs in via a BDC whatever changes they make won't go back to the PDC. Unless the profile is: - always

Hi all, I am newbie on this and I couldn't figure out what I have configured wrong. I have setup three Linux Debian Sarge servers with openldap2 + samba3. PDC and master ldap on one machine and BDC slave ldap on the other two. I followed instructions on http://us1.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-Guide/happy.html to set them up. I am using utilities smbldap-passwd.pl from idealx for

Questions about the port of Xen to ARM with virt extensions are best posted to xen-devel, the xen-arm list focuses on the PV port. Adding xen-devel since it seems you are mainly asking about the w/-virt-extensions port.

Hi I have a PDC/BDC samba/ldap environment. PDC: samba 3.0.24 slapd 2.3.30 BDC: samba 3.2.5 slapd 2.4.11 Ldap replication is working fine, but I have noticed two issues 1- when a windows user change password on BDC, sambaPwdMustChange and sambaPwdCanChange is not synced on PDC (using ldap passwd sync = yes and unix password sync = no) 2- when using 'net sam set pwdmustchange' on

Hi, I have samba PDC running successfully on my server with 3 physical volumes running Fedora Core 5. Physical Volume 1 - OS installation Physical Volume 2 - All Company file shares Physical Volume 3 - Backup of files. I am facing a weird problem or may be somewhat unique to samba or Fedora, that I cannot access shares that are mounted and shared by samba

Hello I have a network setup with one Samba PDC and two Samba BDCs separated by routers (ref http://www.cybersource.com.au/users/mikef/samba/). In this test environment the Samba servers all use the master OpenLDAP server on the PDC, but the production system will have OpenLDAP servers (using master-slave replication) on all Samba servers. I can't get the Windows XP client to change a

Helo, On redhat 9 - samba 3 stable - Using the rpm from 24 september. I try to configure a bdc. Smb.conf is : idmap backend = ldap:ldap://ip_address ldap idmap suffix = ou=personnes,ou=ac-ville,ou=educ winbind uid = 10000-20000 winbind gid = 10000-20000 # allow enumeration of winbind users and groups winbind enum users = yes

Hi, After lots of struggle and rtfm I finally got most things running, except for 'nmblookup' and 'net getlocalsid' on the BDC. I'm not new to Samba, but plenty more to learn. Here's the setup in summary: system pdc is the PDC on subnet 192.168.0.0, running SuSE10.1, LDAP master, wins server, domain master browser, no iptables; system bdc is the BDC on subnet 192.168.2.0,

hi list&john, i read in the documention about BDCs: The domain SID has to be the same on the PDC and the BDC. In Samba versions pre-2.2.5, the domain SID was stored in the file |private/MACHINE.SID|. For all versions of Samba released since 2.2.5 the domain SID is stored in the file |private/secrets.tdb|. This file is unique to each server and cannot be copied from a PDC to a BDC; the BDC

Hi people. I have finally my PDC+BDC running with LDAP+replicaon different subnets. My doubts are simple, I want to understand a little more about BDC. My network is this: Domaine Name=DOMA Networks:NET-A 192.168.40.0/24 NET-B 192.168.50.0/24 PDC=192.168.40.2 BDC=192.168.50.2 wins server = PDC As u can see, both serves exist on different subnets,I want to

Hi, Does someone know how will all my client machines find the BDC when the PDC is stopped. Both PDC and BDC are running Samba with LDAPSAM backend replicated on both the PDC with master LDAP database and BDC with replicated LDAP database. But when I stop PDC the clients are not detecting the BDC broadcast. The replication on all domain controllers are perfect. I went as far as making BDC

Hi, Maybe this was asked many time (although can't find it on google). Let's assume 2 scenarios: 1) I've got local network where PDC and BDC are set up. PDC is working fine so the BDC is. When it's possible for any XP client to use BDC instead of PDC? I read in samba docs that if PDC is slow client can use BDC - but what does it mean slow for the client? How the client knows

Hi all, I have a BDC which uses the LDAP backend of my PDC. Unfortunately all the users who log-in in the morning and who are processed by this BDC, do not get their logon script executed. The BDC logs this error message: [2013/05/24 07:28:11.946577, 2] auth/auth.c:304(check_ntlm_password) check_ntlm_password: authentication for user [foobar] -> [foobar] -> [foobar] succeeded

I have a question about setting up a samba BDC (with a samba PDC). I am running Samba as the PDC on a small network. Other Unix boxes on the network are running with: security = DOMAIN encrypt passwords = Yes update encrypted = Yes password server = 192.168.1.5 So they make use of the PDC for smbmount and smbsh applications. The W2K box also uses Samba at the PDC. I want to set up a Redhat

Hi all, I have this question, I ve got a master LDAP server on a remote place and i want to install a PDC and a BDC and a slave ldap server in other place. Mi question is... may I force de WorkStations logging (read the information )against the BDC first than PDC, so the READ trafic goes to the Slave Ldap??? The problem is the network avoid READ traffic. In the Samba FAQ recomends that the:

If I configure a samba PDC and then a samba BDC, do I need a machine trust account for the BDC? That is, do I have to run "net rpc join" on the BDC? Or manually create the account for the BDC in LDAP? -- Mariano Absatz - "El Baby" el.baby at gmail.com www.clueless.com.ar
