Hi, I am implementing a series of automated regressions tests for samba3. I wish to incorporate the ldapsam:trusted=yes parameter into the testing, and initially had some problems getting smbd to start up and play well with clients. I have discovered that the problem (I am using smbldap tools, smbldap-populate in particular) is the existence of root and nobody users in both /etc/passwd and the

I have not been able to find this exact problem on the mailing list; apologize if I missed it. I have tried both samba versions 3.0.20 and 3.0.21pre1. The file share in smb.conf has these entries: path = /home/samba/myshare guest ok = no read only = no force create mode = 0644 force directory mode = 0775 The directory "myshare" has the following permissions:

Could someone help me understand if what I'm seeing with share access is correct? On my samba domain I have two users (user1 and user2) and one share; the share has attribute "writelist = user1". On a linux machine I: mount the share with "mount -t cifs -o username=user1" successfully open a file in the share for writing with the perl "open" function

Hi, I am testing share parameters, and have the following share definition: ## Section - [shareA] [shareA] path = /tmp/shareA writelist = user1 and do not understand why user1 cannot write files in the share when connected as user1. Unix permissions for the share files are rw for everyone, and the share directory has wide-open permissions. Samba version is 3.0.20b-3.4-SUSE.

I have the following smb.conf file. Note the "guestaccount" parameter, and the guest parameters in shareA, shareB, and shareC. # # Generated by modify_samba_config.pl # [global] adminusers = Administrator, root logonhome = \\%L\%U\.9xprofile addsharecommand = /usr/local/autobench/sources/samba/util/modify_samba_config.pl

How can I give a user account the ability to join or add computer to the domain? Below are the steps I did but none work: 1. Edit smb.conf file and add the following line. # domain administrators domain admin group = root user1 user2 @sysadmin domain admin users = @sysadmin I have a group called "sysadmin" on my /etc/group profile and added both user1 and user2. 2. Map

Samba shares work for windows 7 and Server 2008, but XP and Server 2000 recieve the following error when trying to map samba shares: "The trust relationship between this workstation and the primary domain failed." tail -f /var/log/messages Apr 10 07:38:03 samba01 smbd[23581]:?? connect_to_domain_password_server: unable to open the domain client session to machine ad1.strat.com.

Greetings I have twice before set up samba to operate with user information stored in ldap for personal and test usage. I have not however in the past migrated users from a windows domain to a samaba-ldap domain for my employer. I understand that vampire is the appropriate tool to do just that. We are preparing to discontinue the use of active directory and start using samba3-ldap. From my

Hi, I was able to join samba to the domain successfully (net rpc testjoin command says ok) but could not see it in network neighborhood. I can't map to it as well. The machine is sitting on a different subnet and behind the firewall. What port should I open to make samba accessible to all Windows XP client sitting on different subnets and not behind the firewall. I want to make samba

Hello, We have a Gentoo box running Samba and is a member of the Active Directory domain. This Gentoo box will be a fileserver when everything is completed and setup as it should. I want our users to login to their computer (Computers are all members of the same Active Directory domain) using Active Directory accounts/domain for authentication. I am using Winbind for Active Directory

Hi, I'm a informatics engineering student and I am working on a factory placement which consists of migrating an NT4 based network upon Red Hat Linux AS 3. I took the manual from www.samba.org <http://www.samba.org/> and adapted the variables as suitable for my case. The only one moment where I cannot carry on anymore is when I am supposed to use net rpc vampire on the PDC. Here is

Hi all, I'm trying to migrate NT PDC server to Samba PDC. and now i use samba 3.0.0beta2. I looks the migration steps from samba-howto-collection.pdf or in http://us2.samba.org/samba/ftp/cvs_current/docs/htmldocs/nt4migration.html, and it's not works well. The step is : ******** The approximate migration process is described below. " You will have an NT4 PDC that has the users,

I ran into a problem where systems without DNS entries could not connect to the rsync server with the IPV6 patch applied. Here is a fix to the problem. Basically they were checking the list of IP addresses returned by getaddr even if getaddr failed. I just changed it so they only check the list of IP addresses if getaddr succeeds. Any comments on this please email me directly because I do not

Hi: I need to apply the IRT model from Ramsay (1991), He apply the Smoothing Kernel to multiple choice test. Is possible in R?. Thank you, Xavier G. Ordonez Doctoral Student Universidad Complutense de Madrid

Hi, Can someone help me get "net rpc vampire" in one of its forms working. The objective is to migrate from an NT4 PDC to a SAMBA 3.0 PDC using LDAP as a back end. I am trying to migrate the user and machine accounts across in a lab environment, separate from the main network (I have replicated the PDC to do this). I have samba-3.0.20b built from the samba team source RPM on Fedora

Hello Samba People, it is my first letter to Samba ML, so first of all - thanks Samba team for a great SW. Now the question: I want to migrate from Win2003 AD to Samba 3.3.2. I want to use net vampire feature to import all account information (is there any other way to do it?). Net vampire works partly - in the direct meaning of this word - it is importing only 131 objects. How come? Full

"net rpc vampire ..." does NOT set the SAM or SECURITY hives of the registry to "readable", which is what renders the PDC non-operable. "net rpc vampire ..." is safe to use as many times as it takes to get comfortable with the process. I did it my self when I was converting our "labs" NT4 domain to Samba. --

I'm trying to migrate my NT4 PDC to samba. So I currently have a samba 3.0.14a serveur with ldap backend as running BDC. I successfully migrated SAM database with net vampire command. However when I tried to migrate shares (or files... same error) with this command : net rpc share migrate shares test -S 'SERVEURNT4' --acls -v -U Administrateur%secret I get this error : migrating:

Hi, Right after I run "vampire" (net rpc vampire -S gia42c-1 -U Administrator) command, samba would no longer start. The samba server was installed on Gentoo linux and running behind a firewall. The PDC which is Windows NT 4 server is on different subnet with no firewall. Please check the log and smb.conf below and see if there's anything I can do to make "samba"

Hi all, Thank you for your help, and sorry for my late answer. Everything works fine by now ! Yes, you have to become a BDC to vampire the accounts ! This is why I was getting an "Access denied" error : I thought my Samba was a BDC, but I forgot to add "domain logon = Yes" in my smb.conf, so Samba was a simple share server. Here is the steps I followed to suck the accounts :
