I recently have upgraded from Samba 2.2.8 to 3.0.7. I am using LDAP as a backend, but I'm running into a problem. Namely, since my user entries have no sambaSID attribute, Samba decides they don't exist. (At least, that's how it looks in the logs, included below.) I've looked through the conversion script that's included with Samba 3, but it just uses the rid attribute,

I have the exact same problem as this guy: http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2006-September/125699.html He describes it much better and in much more detail than I could, so I'll let him speak for me. Unfortunately, I don't have the same solution. nss_ldap is configured properly, and things like 'getent passwd' and 'id machine-acct$' show the machine accounts as

This is an immensely frustrating problem. I try to logon to my Samba 3.0.11 PDC running on SuSE, and the Samba logs report that it all went swimmingly: [2005/06/02 16:34:45, 2] auth/auth.c:check_ntlm_password(305) check_ntlm_password: authentication for user [stpierre] -> [stpierre] -> [stpierre] succeeded So w00t, right. But no! Windows rejects my login with a "bad

I have a small domain with a Samba PDB and two Windows clients. My goal is to have all accounts held centrally on the Linux box, but the administrator login doesn't work as an administrator. That is, I can login just fine as 'administrator' (or as any of the other accounts in the Samba password db), but I don't get administrative privileges in Windows. In smb.conf, I have:

I'm trying to troubleshoot a nasty problem with Samba 2.2.8a that I asked about here a while back, and I need someone with a working LDAP-Samba PDC -- preferably 2.2.8a, ideally running on Mac OS X, but I'll take what I can get -- to post the results of an ldapsearch for one of their machine trust accounts. All I'd need is the results of a command along these lines: ldapsearch -LLL

Dear all, I have installed Samba (3.6.6) on Debian wheezy and configured it to authenticate against LDAP (encrypted passwords, no lanman). I want simple shares with user security. I have configured PAM/NSS from the same LDAP and it works fine. WinXP works fine, smbclient works fine, but Windows 7 only works for SOME passwords. Some work, some do not. Samba is configured with restricted LDAP

Hello all, I am trying to add W2K8 server to our domain "ns.local". This domain is working O.K. for all XP machines we have (~10), but when adding a W2K8 server, I get user/pass prompt and then after typing my* username and password I get: --------------------------- Computer Name/Domain Changes --------------------------- The following error occurred attempting to join the domain

Hi there, I'm having some issues with a samba PDC. Using debian etch, kernel version 2.6.18-6-686. I have samba-3.0.24, smbldap-tools-0.9.2, openldap-2.3.30, bind-9.3.4 and isc dhcp-server-3.0.4 with ddns on the same server, I can join and remove Windows XP machines from the domain but I have this Windows NT Workstation that can't join the domain at all. The error it gives is something

Okay, so I've RAZ my ldap-database since last week, I've check all my config from samba. Now I have another error :( When I try to join the domain in Administrator; (samba create the computer but ...) : Administrator:x:998:512:Netbios Domain Administrator:/home/data1/samba/Administrator:/sbin/nologin Here's the log of Samba log.poil-barebone

Hi, all, We are using Samba 3.0.10 with an LDAP backend. It's been working fine for a long time. One strange thing that has come up today : I cannot add 1 specific domain user to the local Administrator group of Windows servers that are also in the domain. Adding the user to the admin group on a workstation works just fine. Adding other users to the admin group on the Windows servers

Hi, I am not sure it's the same issue, but I had a similar problem when upgrading from DSM 5.x to 6.0 : error after domain join : "Connection failed. Please check your network settings" . With the help of the (very efficient) Synology support, we solved the problem by uninstalling an old Cluster HA DSM package that was installed on the NAS but not used. Just in case it could help.

I'm trying to get Samba on a Mac OS X box running as a PDC with an LDAP backend. I've read through all of the major walkthroughs I can find, and we've actually already got it running very nicely as a file server; people are currently authenticating against a different PDC and then mapping drives from the Samba box in question. However, I'd like it to be the PDC eventually, but

Samba 3.0.21c, RHEL4. About a week ago, we restarted our Samba server because nmbd had run amok. Since that restart, our Apple clients have periodically disconnected -- by most reports, they disconnect every 15-45 minutes. It doesn't appear to be synchronized, i.e., every Mac on campus doesn't disconnect at once, but only occasionally. They get a message similar to: "A server you

Hi, I'm running a debian lenny machine with samba (3.5.0) and OpenLDAP installed (2.4.11). When i add a machine to the domain, windows reports the following error: "The specified computer account could not be found". The computer account is added to the LDAP database but without the samba attributes. The weird thing is that if i try it a second the, the samba attributes are added to

I have a samba server configured that is member of a samba domain called PRODESAN.COM.BR. After we had to reinstall the domain controller some samba shares stopped working on the member server. I get this when I try to use the share: [2007/05/29 17:26:28, 3] auth/auth.c:check_ntlm_password(219) ? check_ntlm_password: ?Checking password for unmapped user [WORKGROUP]\[USER1]@[HOST6] with the

Hello I'm hoping someone can provide some insight, sample snippet from smb.conf and the samba log. Password authentication is working & succeeding, complains about an invalid SID which I know is the trust relationship that is formed between server and client, this is a duplicate ldap database from a samba domain controller. On the topic, anyone have a good book to recommend on Samba, I

Hello, all! I'm running samba 3.0.2 PDC on FreeBSD 5.2 with ldapsam backend. Everything works great (thanks to Samba Team!) except adding add deleting users from user manager for domains. Group adding and deleting works normally. When I tried do add user I received error window about remote procedure call error, but disabled user account was created in ldap and it was added to Domain Users

Hello, I'm trying to configure a Debian woody with samba 3.0.5 and ldap from www.backports.org. I managed to get to the point where I created a user with smbldap-adduser -m -a smbldap-passwd smbpasswd I can log into the server with this user and smbclient //server/user -Uuser%pass works as expected. The WinXP is able to join the domain and the machine account gets created in ldap. But I

Hi all! When I try to join a Windows XP client to a Samba 3 domain I get an access denied error. Below's my configuration and a snippet from the log file. Has someone an idea what I need to change / do in order to be able to join the domain from Windows? Thx in advance for your help!

Hello everybody! I should have an error on the LDAP entries of my ldapSAM, but I've read several times chapters 11 & 12 of the Samba HOWTO Collection and I cannot fix it. Let's explain: I've got a StandAlone fileserver (not PDC) samba-3.0.4 with ldapSAM working on a RedHat Enterprise 3.0 (linux kernel 2.4.25). The directory server version shouldn't be important, but
