similar to: Problem with [homes] under 3.0.23x

Yesterday evening I upgraded my FreeBSD 5.5-RELEASE Server from Samba 3.0.22 to 3.0.23. This gave me a LOT of work today... :-( This is what I found so far: My Samba-Server is member of a large ADS-Domain. After the upgrade, file based Usermapping didn't work anymore... better: it worked TWICE. (I once opened a PR for that a few years ago :-). So, with LogLevel 3:

Hi, I just installed samba 3.0.3pre2 on a FreeBSD 5.2.1-RELEASE Box. It's a ActiveDirectory Member-Server and works so far - with an exception: It seems to me, that the "!"-Syntax in the user mapping file doesn't work any more. The man-page says, that samba will stop on a matching "!<unix-user>=<win-user>" line, but all my users (even if successfully

Hello everyone. I have a question concerning the [homes] directive. I've set it up and everything's working fine but there's just a slight little detail that bothers me, and that is that when I browse my samba server off a w2k/wXP client I have two shares (I only have [homes] in my config file as far as shares are concerned) in the root view. That is \\sambaserver\homes and

I run a pretty large network, we have plenty of users. Most of our users have their windows home directories on Samba servers. One of these many users has the username "homes". This user is unable to map their home directory (\\sambaserver\homes). It seems that this could be a conflict between the "homes" share definition and his username and samba getting confused.

We just upgraded from samba-1.9.17p2 to 1.9.18p4 and seemed to have lost the ability to connect to the "[homes]" service. When users try to use that service, the NT logon dialog always returns with "invalid password or username" error. Using an explicit user name works. In other words, connecting to: \\sambaServer\homes does not work, but \\sambaServer\vince

Hi, I believe that the BUG 2346 which was resolved in samba 3.0.14 has come back in the 3.0.23 series. Here is what I have noticed on two separate configurations. The samba packages were built on each machine using rpmbuild with the SRPMS provided for Fedora in the samba web site. Configuration 1. Two machines running with RHEL4, samba 3.0.23b-1, drbd-0.7.21 protocol C. Kernel:

First, my installation is samba 2.2.8 running as a daemon (not inetd) on Solaris 8 configured to use a WINS server and provide authentication via a PDC (same host as WINS server). I do have an lmhosts file in the samba /lib directory with the PDC/WINS server address in it. My globals section; [global] workgroup = WORKGROUP netbios name = SAMBASERVER security =

I am not sure if your problem is similar to what we have just experienced. we are using samba 2.2.3a-12.3 on debian with winxp sp1 clients we are using roaming profiles first logon after reboot fails sortof Windows cannot find a server copy of roaming profile will logon with local profile funny thing we never saw any activity in hostname.log (seperate smb.log for each machine) smbstatus showed

Hi, I'm having an issue trying to make a Windows machine sambaserveroin a Samba domain. Samba is running with LDAP backend (OpenLDAP). When I try to join the domain, Windows says that the machine account does not exist. The machine account, however, is successfully created in the LDAP directory after the join fails. When I try to join again, Windows says that the account already exists.

Hello, I have problems setting up a canon multifunction ir7200. When I print the windows test page, I have something like "smiley" "arrow" "arow" "smiley" "arrow" name_of_the_samba_spool "smileys" driver.dll etc,etc,etc, on a single line. Did somebody used such a multifunction with Samba ? Below is a (long) description of what I did. I

Hi all Follow up to this post, as it didn't seem to go through the first time. We have a common problem occurring with our Samba setups. We run 3 (identical) processing environments that each contain a Samba host sharing approx .5TB of data to 6 Wintel machines. Normally these hosts operate fine, though we intermittently experience a Samba panic (intermittent = every 2-3 days) as per below.

Hi, my dovecot installation dovecot-2.0.9-19.el6_7.2.x86_64 can't authenticate using winbind from 4.4.3, but it can with winbind from 4.4.2. 4.4.3: May 5 22:11:07 sambaserver auth: pam_winbind(dovecot:auth): getting password (0x00000010) May 5 22:11:07 sambaserver auth: pam_winbind(dovecot:auth): pam_get_item returned a password May 5 22:11:07 sambaserver auth: pam_winbind(dovecot:auth):

Everyone, I am hoping that someone can help me. I have been trying for several weeks to get Samba working to no avail. I have consulted many online help files including the ones located at http://us1.samba.org/samba/docs/DIAGNOSIS.html, browsing.txt that comes with samba, http://us2.samba.org/samba/ftp/docs/Samba24Hc13.pdf, and a few others. I have even posted a previous message, which

This worked great last time I figured what do I have to loose... I can mount to myself mount -t //sambaserver/dir /test/samba this works fine...I even have username and passwords going through a win nt box. When I'm on a winnt4.x box I see sambaserver in the browse list but when I enter a "net view \\sambaserver" I get : No service is operating at the destination network

I recently upgraded Samba on my DC from a working 4.3 installation to 4.5.0. Once done, I followed the instructions here: https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Updating_Samba#Fixing_replPropertyMetaData_Attributes and ran: samba-tool dbcheck --cross-ncs --fix --yes After that, I can no longer access the shares on this machine. I get the "Security ID structure is invalid" error above. In

But the win wks on the other subnet is configured to use my SAMBASERVER as its WINS SERVER, and it is configured using the IP Adress of the SAMBASERVER and not the name. Shouldn't this do the trick? win wks is on a wireless subnet and hence runs at 11 MBPS, while the SAMBASERVER is on a wired subnet. I read somewhere that windows does some kind of "optimization" with slow networks.

I am having issues getting my Windows clients (all WinXP) in a 2003 AD domain to transparently authenticate to my Samba (version 3.0.10-1.4E.2) server. I had this previously working before I changed the name of the server. After changing the name of the server in smb.conf, I ran the same init commands such as kinit, net ads join, and so on. I had also deleted the previous computer object in AD,

Hi Jeremy, Hi Steve, Hi Ronnie, thanks for your replies and the profound discussion. I think, it's best to demonstrate my problem case along an real world example: The following log of a console sesssion shows how I am doing the mounts on behalf Linux Kernel CIFS-FS Module on the client side against a Samba 4.5 file server (both running on Debian Stretch 9.8) via SMB/CIFS resp.
