Brief history, originally setup as Ubuntu 7.10. Upgraded to 8.04.1LTS, Samba 3.0.28 and has latest updates installed as of this morning. Currently Samba is configured to use smbpasswd for passdb backend. As tdbsam has become the peferred backend, would like to migrate to tdbsam.

Help!! I have been using tbdsam as a backend and I have been unable to get the pdbedit -P "bad lockout attempt" -C 3 to be enforced. When I set the attribute it seems that I can try to login as many times as I want. Any help out there? Terrance

Hi All, I just upgraded a workstation server to a PDC server. I am using tbdsam as my user database. Question 1: As a workgroup server, I created my groups in /etc/group (groupadd). Is this still the case? Do I also need to tell Samba about a different database for groups? Question 2: occasionally I get asked for the user with "administrator's" privileges. Do I need to

Hi, I'm trying to get samba (v3.0.23d) going on an embedded system. Our initial requirement is to get a very simple windows share operational. No security required, read only anonymous access. With this in mind we followed the guidelines as per the samba documentation: http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/StandAloneServer.html#simplynice Samba (smbd) crashes with a

Hi, I'm building up a new server to replace an old one running Samba2. The new server is running Samba 3 and I'm having a problem getting it to recognise my groups in /etc/groups. I'm using the old smbpasswd backend, not the new tbdsam database. I've copied my smb.conf, and the files from /usr/local/private across to the new machine, as well as /etc/group and migrated the user

Hi All, I've had a great time exploring * on & off over the past month and have had a deal of success, very impressed with this product...

Just thought I bring attention to the state of the debian packages at http://download.samba.org/samba/ftp/Binary_Packages/ the samba_3.0.1-2_i386.deb and samba-common_3.0.1-2_i386.deb have errors associated with the packaging of the debs. An underscore seems to have found it's way into the template definitions eg. _Description: and generates an error as an unkown symbol when installing.

Hi All, I''ve got an interoffice IPSEC VPN in place that I''m trying to give priority to terminal service (tcp 3389) traffic. I''ve created rules at each end, but have hit a bit of a dillemma. As the data is encrypted I must also give highest priority to protocol 50 otherwise the priority is lost as the packet gets encrypted. When I do this however, I can''t

Hello, Using vampire to migrate accounts from an NT box and found that machine names were not created. Creating account: IT-NT$ Could not create posix account info for 'IT-NT$' Creating account: PDC$ Could not create posix account info for 'PDC$' <snip> And seemingly random user accounts were also not created. Can I make another pass with vampire to retrieve the missed

Hi All, I note from previous posts that the uid & gid are not supported in smb.conf. My issue is that I have mysql auth backend for ftp sites, that I'd like to share directories for internal access. There is currently no way I can see to force the user or group using uid & gid for this type of backend. Can anyone offer any suggestions as a work around to this? Cheers, Lewis

Hi, Can anyone help me with an annoying problem regarding capital letters in usernames. I have three users whose usernames begin with a capital, and I'd really like to fix this so that all usernames are lower case, for consistency and to avoid confusion if they use other services provided by the linux box.
