Hi All, Yesterday, I've upgraded my Samba server from 3.021c to 3.023 through yum upgrade samba*. I'm running Fedora Core 4 Kernel 2.6.17-1.2142 on this server. After upgrade has been completed, I lost the attributes of ownership and groups. I noticed that the uids/gids have changed for all AD accounts. This means that users can't have total access for their files and no access

I am trying to build samba 3.0.22 on an older Slackware system. gcc version egcs-2.91.66 19990314/Linux (egcs-1.1.2 release) The error I'm getting is smbd/statvfs.c: In function `linux_statvfs': smbd/statvfs.c:40: incompatible types in assignment Anyone have any clues?

Hi All, I am working on a product(running on Linux with Kernel 2.4) in which print-server is one of the functionalities. For that I have integrated Samba and CUPS which will let me give print-commands from a Windows PC and the commands are communicated to the cups via Samba and finally the prints are done by the printer which is connected to the product. I have both CUPS(1.2.1) and Samba(3.0.22)

I currently have in my slapd.conf: index sambaSID eq the release notes for 3.0.23 say I need index sambaSID sub can I use index sambaSID eq,sub TIA

I want to eliminate the Samba version information that appears when mapping a share on a samba server from windows explorer (winxp). As an example after mapping a drive in windows, say drive t:, explorer shows drive t: mapped as: 'homes on 'Samba 3.0.20b-3.4-SUSE (servername)' How can I eliminate the samba version info, 'Samba 3.0.20b-3.4-SUSE' from windows explorer. I have

Since upgrading to 3.0.23 I have encountered several problems. (latest Debian Sarge with deb's from samba.org and security = ADS). All was working flawlessly before. *1.* getent passwd no longer lists machine accounts. *2.* On the Win2K pdc, the samba system's "DNS name" on the general tab is now listed as localhost.localdomain, and the operating system is still listed as

During some recent testing of winbindd (3.0.22) in a multi-domain, multi-DC AD context, the AD expert I was working with was very interested in winbindd's choice of domain controller (it apparently was not choosing the one(s) AD-expert expected). I understand that Windows domain members have an algorithm based on DNS SRV records and IP address comparison, and I've seen some code posted in

I have a samba PDC running 2.0.20c I installed Samba 2.0.23 on a client joined to the domain. With this combination, when I attempt to connect to a share on this client from any host even the localhost results in the following: $ smbclient //localhost/atest -U auser Password: Domain=[DOMAIN] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.0.23-SerNet-RedHat] tree connect failed: NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED Windows

I'm curious if anyone has suggestions about a problem we have encountered. We have recently upgraded a 2.2.8a server to 3.0.23. The server in question is running Solaris 8 with NIS+. Storage is from our SAN. Since the migration, we have found that we no longer have access to several shares. They are connected, but we are unable to get to them. Samba will indicate that we are connected to

Previously had samba-3.0.22 on RedHat Enterprise 4 functioning happily, using pam_winbind to authenticate against our campus active directory (currently only doing password authentication, account info is still retrieved via NIS). /etc/pam.d/system-auth attached After upgrading to 3.0.23 * I needed to add idmap options (I used idmap backend = rid), else winbind would only start in "netlogon

I have been trying to get Samba 3.0.22 to authenticate to our Active Directory 2k3 environment for about 3 weeks now. I have gotten to a point where google searches are no longer helpful. We have an IBM 9133 server on AIX 5.3. I had to use the binaries because the sources failed the make install. We are using IBM's version of Kerberos Network Authentication Service because the MIT version

Hello List, In regards to RPM packages, what is the difference in the prebuilt ones for example the FC5 RPM's directly from samba.org or obtaining the latest .tar.gz and running ./makerpms.sh for the desired distribution. Does this way optimize for example - x86-64 or SMP ? Cheers, Adrian Sender. -----Original Message----- From: Gerald (Jerry) Carter [mailto:jerry@samba.org] Sent:

Hi, Since 1 month, I tried without any success to configure Samba. My problem is that winbind crashes when I list users and groups. And I think that it is linked to my trusted domains (wbinfo -domain=myADdomain -u works well). The error is the following : [2006/07/11 14:30:29, 3] libsmb/cliconnect.c:cli_session_setup_spnego(757) got principal=machine$@TRUSTEDDOMAIN.COM [2006/07/11

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
