similar to: CentOP 5.1 Problem with smbldap-passwd

Greetings. I have problem with password expiration problem i cannot handle myself, so i wrote in this list. Recently i discovered that a newly created samba account has already expired password. smbldap-useradd -a -d /home/tommy -G education -s /bin/bash -M tommy -c "Tommy T." tommy smbldap-passwd tommy getent shadow user:*:::::::0 user2:*:::::::0 user3:*:::365::::0

I am trying to set up LDAP authentication for CentOS workstations, but can't get it to authenticate properly. Authentication fails saying the account has expired when I know for certain that it has not (e.g. ldapsearch authenticated with the appropriate uid and password returns shadowLastChange 14816 and shadowMax 99999). The last time I did this seriously for authentication was using Apple

Dear all, I'm running samba-3.0.28a-1ubuntu4.4/smbldap-tools-0.9.4-1 on Ubuntu Hardy with the Samba+OpenLDAP setup. I found some problems with password change. With the following settings in smb.conf: ldap passwd sync = Yes passwd program = /usr/sbin/smbldap-passwd %u passwd chat = New password:%n\nRetype new password:%n\n unix password sync = no ...

Hi, for those who are using ldap for managing Samba, here's a quick script I wrote to make it simple to list users or machines on the commandline. I use it to delete old machine entries that are not in use anymore. For usage, read the perldoc in the script. Place the script in the same directory as you have your other smbldap-tools scripts. The script is based on smbldap-usershow. Kind

dear All, I'm trying to set Shadow options in Ldap with the help of phpLDAPadmin. This is *what I know : * */Shadowmax : /maximum nr of days a pw can be valid * /ShadowLastchange : /contains the last change of the shadow file * Shadowwarning : nr of days before expiration to warn user. *What I'm trying *to do is have the users 's passwork expire, that works ok. But

CentOS 5.2 with OpenLDAP 2.3.27, nss_ldap_253.13, using TLS, i686 and x86_64.

I'm currently going through chapter 5 of Samba-3 by Example, "Making Users Happy" Step 16 is where I get a hiccup. When I execute the command "pdbedit -Lv" which according to the man page should list out all my users, I get nothing back. All the previous steps have worked using one of my existing LDAP account uids. There seem to be extra things I need to have in my

Hi, I'm writing to you on behalf of the Pasteur Institute's (Paris, France) IT team. We're currently using dovecot-0.99.10.5_2 on a FreeBSD 5.3. We're planning to upgrade to dovecot-1.x with an openLDAP user and password database and patch it at the same time to include some authentication feature we're using : Since most of our user currently don't use dovecot at all and

So I''m trying to be a good agile programmer and write unit tests for my objects, but I''ve got a test I just can''t keep from failing. I have a profile object that I just added username and hashed_password to. I used the method in the Rails book to handle hashing the password. My code is strait out of the book. The whole object is at the end of this email. I want

In console, I am trying to create a User but the :account_id does not come in. Console just gives me back :account_id => nil. Obviously I''m trying to set it though. Silly console... But, I can set the account_id column in my controller like so: @user = User.new(params[:user]) @user.account_id = account.id @user.save Here''s what I give to the controller: User.create :name

I have an error I don''t know how to debug. I am adding the login suport in Depot (the example in the RoR book) and LoginController#add_user throws ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid in an innocent /login/add_user GET request. The trace goes down to a call to SQLiteAdapter#table_structure, and the source code suggests what''s happening is that "PRAGMA

Hello, let me re-state, hopefully in clearer terms, what I tried to described in a previous thread : With dovecot-1.1.8/Maildir/LDAP pass/userdb (prefetch), I'm trying to set up a Maildir ".box" shared in rw between 2 users in a "Public" namespace. I can't get it to work unless I chmod 777 everything, which obiously is not what I want. 1) am I correct

Hi, I've reported this before but I guess I'll have to do it again, since it's not fixed yet or I'm understanding something wrong here. The problem is that smbldap-useradd -w 'machinename' will add only posixAccount entrys into ldap but it should add both posixAccount and sambaSAMAccount entrys. So if one doesn't add correct machine account entrys manually to ldap

Hi list, first evening of playing with rails, so please forgive me if I ask something stupid. ;-) I created a User model and tried to use ActiveRecord callbacks to convert the password to sha1 just before saving it. For some reason postgresql gives me a error because the given password is null. To test even further I tried to change :login too, same error happens, :login is empty too. I am sure

Hello, I'm trying to set up, as explained in the wiki, shared mailboxes with symlink. I'm running dovecot-1.1.8 with LDAP pass/userdb. The Maildir layout goes like this : /courriel/boites/foobar : Maildir of user foobar (nfs) /courriel/meta/foobar : control files of user foobar (nfs) /var/dovecot/indexes : indexes (locally stored) I created
