Im having some problems with the samba 3.0.24 in Debian Etch when I try to list the groups, like this: wbinfo -g or net rpc group -U username All the times the output of the command is... "NOTHING". In samba 3.0.14 (Sarge), this works OK. I don't try in a newer version of samba. I test this with the debug on -d 4 with the rpc command and this is the ouput (see attached files).

Im using debian sarge samba 3.0.14a with no problems. I just upgraded to samba 3.0.22 to test it and i found the following problem in the two seconds of testing it.... ==> alem-tsii.log <== [2006/07/08 01:17:49, 0] lib/debug.c:reopen_logs(597) Unable to open new log file /var/log/samba/alem-tsii.log: Permission denied muzik:/var/log/samba# cd .. muzik:/var/log# ls -ld samba/ drwxr-x---

Hello, I would like to enforce some level of password complexity when users change their password. I have a Samba PDC running on Debian set to sync Unix passwords. I'm trying to get Samba to work with cracklib, but it isn't going well. Here is what I've tried: Installed libpam-cracklib, compiled examples/auth/crackcheck and copied the binary to /usr/local/sbin. I added the

Hi there, Here are the facts: - I have samba 3.4.2-0.42.fc11 running on a Fedora 11 system. - Samba is acting as a domain controller, no Windows server involved. - I am using tdbsam. - I need to enforce certain password requirements. The password requirements are: - min 8 characters - expiration 90 days - last 10 passwords may not be reused - not a dictionary word Per the Samba 3.2 FAQ, the

you could use the "veto files =" option in [global] set a list of files/folders to be invisible to the users like this: veto files = /*.vbs/*.eml/Desktop/Cookies/ ...and on and on and on... It's a quick and easy fix. Otherwise you'll have to use logon home = \\%N\%U logon path = \\%N\%U options to specify another directory altogether to store profiles. Regards, Alan B.

I've scoured the mailing list archives and the internet...has anyone actually figured out how to enforce strong passwords when using Samba and LDAP as a PDC? My users are allowed to change their Windows XP passwords, how do I enforce the use of strong passwords (either locally or globally)? -- *Jason Baker */IT Coordinator/ *Glastender Inc.* 5400 North Michigan Road Saginaw, Michigan

Hi, We upgraded a legacy (NT4) domain from 3.6 series to 4.8 and then 4.9.4 samba version (using sernet subscription packages / debian stable) The setup is composed of 4 DCs with each 2 CPU/16GB RAM. We currently have ~700 user accounts / ~600 computers / ~150 groups Our mail setup, SSO, ... query the 4 DCs constantly. Every 5 to 10 days the RAM consumption and CPU usage (due to kswapd)

Hi, I have Samba 3.0.13 running on Suse 9.2 on an i586. I can browse and connect to the Samba shares on the Linux machine from Windows XP and Mac OSX. However, about 1 min after connecting, the shares are lost and gone from the network environment - same for Windows XP and Mac OSX. From time to time, they "re-appear" only to be gone after another minute or so. The Windows shares

Hi all, I'm quite new to all this, so please go easy on me if I don't quite seem to say the right things. (any advice is good advice) I have a 3.0.14a-debian samba install, with ldap auth using pam_unix (see smb.conf below) We want to implement a few password checks for complexity, so I have written a pretty basic script (see below) which definitely exits 0 on a good password

I'm trying to join a Windows PC to a domain. I've got a root user set-up to add machines to the domain. When prompted by windows, I enter in root and the password.

I have Samba and LDAP up and running, but I'm having problems editing the password policy using pdbedit. (I'm running 3.0.22) I've had a look at the man page for pdbedit but I don't really fully understand what it does in relation to passwd backends. Does pdbedit update just one backend and expect a user to export the updates to other backends? I think I've set up ldap as

Hi all, linux:~ # net rpc join -S sun -W SOLARSYS -U admin Joined domain SOLARSYS. linux:~ # net rpc vampire -S sun -U admin Fetching DOMAIN database Failed to fetch domain database: NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED What is wrong?

hai, im still on holiday but i did see some things a bit, also in addition about the smb.conf in classic mode dns forwarder is predecated, so i suggest avoiding the option. this part, you set ssl off but also set the ports to the ssl ports. ldap ssl = off ldap passwd sync = yes /etc/ldap/ldap.conf BASE dc=mydomain URI ldap://sam3dc.mydomain ldap://sam3dc.mydomain:666 use URI
