Hello! when using Samba [4.5.16-Debian] as standalone server in Windows environment to allow certain users to access shares, we are currently using the default tdbsam backend with a bunch of users. We now want to migrate the users from one standalone server to a replacement server.??To migrate the users I expected to able to export the users (incl. passwords) into a file on one server, copy the

Hallo, I'm trying to convert smbpasswd to passdb.tdb. cd /etc/samba/private # (where smbpasswd lies) pdbedit -i smbpasswd -e tdbsam:/etc/samba/private/passdb.tdb converts all human users, but it converts (or transfers) no machine account. In "smbpasswd" are many entries beginning with (p.e.) mac001$ for these accounts, pdbedit -L -v | grep -i mac shows

Hi, i need to create users accounts into Samba with already encrypted passwords from a file. I use tdbsam backend and Samba 3.0.24 (Debian Etch) The file format is quite easy : login1|Unix_passwd|Lanman Password Hash|NT Password Hash First, i create the unix users with their already encrypted password : useradd -p Unix_passwd login1. Fine. But can i do the same thing with smbpasswd or pdbedit

Is there a way to enable user to change password on first signon?

I've been very frustrated with getting XP to connect to samba. I added a machine account on Linux useradd -g workstation -d /dev/null -s /bin/false xpmachine$ then pdbedit -a -m -u xpmachine on XP i change the name to xpmachine and connect as root. I'm welcomed into my domain as expected When I reboot I cannot login because my account isn't recognized although I can login as

John, We previously corresponded on our testing of Samba 3.0.0 RC4. Since then, we have downloaded the Samba 3.0.0 Release version for testing with some interesting results. The Setup Major Networks: Solaris (NIS), Windows Native NT4 Domain Our Test Plan We are testing Samba 3.0 as a candidate for replacing the old NT4 Domain. Being a complex production networking environment, we replicated

Hi all, I'm trying to migrate my users to new hardware. They're currently using Samba version 3.4.7-0.50 on Fedora 11 I have a new F20 server set up with Samba version 4.1.14 As you know, F11 had user accounts starting at uid 500 whereas F20 has accounts starting at uid 1000 I've already done usermod -u <NewUID> and groupmod -g <newGID> for the Linux accounts to bump

Hi, I've installed Samba a few times, and I always have the same problem - except now I really want to get rid of it. My Samba server is very, very, very slow on occations (not always), and some times it's really annoying. What happens is that it doesn't seem to be online for a period of 5-10 seconds once every minute! If I'm copying huge files, it's working great, but when

Hi, I was having problem with the tdbsam backend in which a particular user got listed twice with pdbedit. (http://www.mail-archive.com/samba at lists.samba.org/msg109110.html) Without much hope in fixing it, I am planning to re-generating passdb.tdb on my PDC by: (1)exporting tdbsam to smbpasswd backend (2)delete passdb.tdb (3)re-import smbpasswd to tdbsam backend With the command `

I find Linux to be a nightmare if usernames have capital letters. Some old Windows PDCs that we are vampiring have usernames with capital letters. AFAIK you can't change a windows username Is there a way of telling the vampire to make all usernames lowercase as it imports them? Can I use pdbedit or any other tool to make them lowercase? At the moment I am changing /etc/passwd and the

I didn't get any answers so I try again: I am using tdbsam as passdb backand. I have added root user with pdbedit. The machine trust account was added on the fly. I have added the user with pdbedit. I have created the user in /etc/passwd. When the user logs in from a W2k and mounts the home-directory I noticed that Samba didn't take the home-directory information from tdbsam, it

Hello people! I'd like to know about a practical guide which helps to migrate users from a perfect working Samba PDC running with tdbsam backend to a new backend to LDAP. Does "pdbedit -i xxx -e xxx" make all the job? My network is growing and I need a directory service to help find people so I'd like to see a LDAP server running well with Samba without rebuild my user

Hello everybody, I'm asking myself a rather simple issue (i hope it hasn't already be explained somewhere). I'm using ldapsam_compat on 3.0.1pre3(+Debian patches & smbldap-tools 0.8.1) to store both user accounts and machine accounts. It works just fine, but there still is something that i find quite odd. My smb.conf contains: add machine script =

Hi there, With the new scrutinization by auditors on account policies and auditing, how can Samba be SOX compliant? Using 3.0.14a-sernet on Suse 9.1 - ldapsam Specifically, a couple of things seem to be lacking: 1) Logon/Logoff times are not being recorded The last logon time recorded in my ldap entries are pre-nt4 migration. 2) Do the Audit Policy values in user manager have any effect?
