Hi all! I am from the Windows world and am trying to migrate to Linux and have done a fairly good job so far. My recent challenge is that I have built a Samba file/print server that works very well on my internal network but when I VPN into the network remotely I am unable to access the server via it's server name. What is driving me crazy is the fact that the last of my Windows

Dear all, I am using Samba 3.0.20-4 SUSE. When a user (under Windows) modifies an Excel or Word file, he/she becomes the owner of that file !!! I have read that this is because Excel & Word delete the original file and recreate a new one with the modifications. But I didn't find a solution to prevent this. Thank you in advance for your reply. Ivan Tadic Brussels, Belgium

Hi, I have a samba server sharing some stuff. Now i want to enable access to some share only to SOME users on the domain. this is the smb.conf : [global] netbios name = DATASVR server string = DATASVR socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=16384 SO_SNDBUF=16384 idmap uid = 10000-20000 idmap gid = 10000-20000 winbind enum users = yes

I am having trouble with getting my Homes section to work properly. When I browse to the server from a Windows client, I can see my home directory. However, when I try to access it, it challenges me for a userID and password. No matter what I enter, I will not allow me access. Can someone point me in the right direction to solve this? Here are the errors... [2006/03/27 11:19:22, 0]

Hello, I reeeeally need someone's help here. I guide after guide from all sorts of sources but I still cannot get samba to authenticate a domain login via winbind off of the windows 2003 DC on our network. Here is what I can do: I can successfully do a kinit command and can verify the existance on the samba server in active directory on the DC. I can login using domain profiles on the samba

Everyone, I have configured a new SLES 10 server exactly the same as I had previously configured a SLES 9 server. The only difference is the version of samba. On the SLES 10 server, I am running the 3.0.23c level, the SLES 9 server is behind a little. My problem is with connecting to other AD domains. Only my default domain has a valid sequence number. All the other domains are

When I attempt to authenticate a user from another domain, I am seeing some strange issues. My winbindd.log shows that I am indeed already trusting the other domain. (I am a member of the na.uis.unisys.com domain.) However, when I try to gain access to a share where the username EU\INBLR-AUTH1 has access, I get prompted for a username and password over and over. Obviously, it can't

I have a problem that recently appeared with ADS authentication. I have a samba server that is an AD member on our domain, ourdomain.edu. We are under a domain that is an empty root, call it 'theirdomain.net'. Also under this root is another domain, call it 'theirdomain.edu. I have found that RPC access has been disabled on the DC's in theirdomain.edu and my samba server can no

Hi folks I face a problem about the data synchronization when using the ctdb. When one ctdb node fails, other ctdb nodes may not recover the data of the failed node. I think it may be due to the fact that ctdb stores its tdb files in the local storage. So, is it fine to store the tdb files in the shared directory of the backend storage? When one node fails, other nodes may recover the data from

Hi all Samba users, For some I've got a Samba server running with the following config: Debian Sarge 2.6.8 kernel Samba 3.0.21 with winbind and LDAP as ADS member server A W2K003 PDC Samba's data partition is ext3 + ACL I've migrated my users homedirs and profiledirs from W2K003 to Samba. These each user owns his own homedir and has rwx------ permissions This seems to be working

Hello, I just rebuilt the samba server that I was working on and when I try to add the line "winbind separator = \", testparm tells me that its value must be 1 character and then displays its value as the proceeding line. If I change the value to '+', it tells me that the value might cause a problem with groups memberships. If I just leave the value at '/' then it does

I am seeing some extremely slow logons to my SUSE servers. All are configured exactly the same. When I attempt to log on, I can enter my domain (AD) account without any problems. I then enter my password and sit and wait for several minutes until it eventually takes me to my desktop. In attempting to debug the problem, we have been able to see millions of calls to the domain controller. They

I try to use Win32API EnumPrinterDataEx to get registry key's values and data from Samba print server (of course I previously connect to the print queue and retrieve keys by EnumPrinterKey). During the function execution (EnumPrinterDataEx) I collect ethereal trace to verify correct data is sent on wire and that Ethereal can correctly represent that info. Some of the keys parsed correctly

We have noticed a change in the way AD authentication behaves starting with 3.0.25. Ive been hoping it was a bug and someone would notice and fix it. But since its still there as of 3.0.28, I guess its a feature :-). Anyway, our users on XP machines used to be able to authenticate against AD with just a username/password eg u1234567. But as of 3.0.25 they need to use a fully qualified username eg

I'm running FreeBSD 8 on a Sheevaplug (ARM5 processor) I compiled and installed Samba 3.3.9 from ports using defaults and defaults for dependencies. I left the smb.conf file untouched, ran testparm and immediately received the coredump. The same happens running smbd and nmbd. Can anyone help me resolve? http://old.nabble.com/file/p26879957/testparm.core.gz testparm.core.gz -- View this

Everyone, With many thank to Jerry, my cross domain authentication is now working. This leads to a new problem. I cannot get samba to authenticate a remote domain user in a Universal group to authenticate properly.

Hi there We have a bunch of Samba 3.0.10+ CentOS4.4 servers that are working 100% fine when connected to from users who are members of the same ADS domain our Samba servers are members of. However, users from other ADS domains (we are all W2K3-based) on our network cannot connect - they get NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED. The shares they are trying to connect to have no share-level permission checks -
