Hi, I've reported this before but I guess I'll have to do it again, since it's not fixed yet or I'm understanding something wrong here. The problem is that smbldap-useradd -w 'machinename' will add only posixAccount entrys into ldap but it should add both posixAccount and sambaSAMAccount entrys. So if one doesn't add correct machine account entrys manually to ldap

I am trying to create a master share that contains all the other shares. I created a group that needs read+write permission to all the other shares. However, rather than adding this group in each share configuration, I was wondering if there is a way to overwrite the permission. I tried this but gave read-only access. Also in the linux level, I don't have this master group as the owner. Any

Hello, I am also triing to set up a interdomain relationship with a NT domain and I can't create the user, I execute the following command and I get this. smbpasswd -a -i xxx New SMB password: Retype new SMB password: Failed initialise SAM_ACCOUNT for user xxx$.

I have some weird error with one of my samba installation. When modifying samba password using smbpasswd, samba seems trying to add same attribute (instead of delete and add again), pls see the "MOD" from log file (from different domain) : UNSUCESSFULL Mar 15 17:10:53 hurricane slapd[27056]: conn=29489 op=1 MOD dn="uid=pwreka,ou=people,ou=purwakarta,dc=indorama,dc=com" Mar 15

I have 19 servers with this smb.conf share definition working: [export] comment = Exported Files path = /tmp/export guest ok = Yes On the 20th server however, this just doesn't want to work. I've gone through the basics of guest access and permissions more than a few times trying to figure this one out. Approaching this from another angle, I tried the following

Samba experts, Thanks to advice from this list, I am finally able to get smbpasswd to change ldap passwords for the Samba LM/NT passwords. However, I had to give write access to sambaPwdLastSet and sambaPwdCanChange attributes as well. Other Samba attributes don't seem to need write access. I have found plenty of examples with people assigning an ACL for sambaLMPassword and

Any possibility to apply policies on WinXP machines using samba 3.2.3 ? In samba documentation in : http://us1.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/PolicyMgmt.html There is references to apply policies in NT/2000 Server and winxp clients, but it's not clear to me that will run fine or not using samba 3.2.3+winxp machines. If exist a way, How ? I was create a local policies using

I have implemented samba with LDAP backend, domain logins and roaming profiles and everything is great - except for one thing. Noone can change their passwords from windows - trying to change your password results in windows telling you your not allowed to do that! I did smbldap-show alan and among other information the line: sambaPwdCanChange: 0 appeared. From my understanding if I do

Greetings All. First let me introduce my situation Machine1: Pdc Samba + OpenLDAP(master) Machine2: Bdc Samba + OpenLDAP(slave) LDAP stores Samba and POSIX information for each user. Case1: I login to Machine1 and invoke smbpasswd. I change my passwords (samba and posix without any problem). In next few seconds they get propagated to Machin2 wher I can login with new credentials. ldap log

I have been having some problems since I updated from Samba 3.0.23 to 3.0.25b. I have installed the latest version of smbldap-tools but I am still not able to make certain changes to a user's account. I have created a new user named JROLFE. After I set up a new user, I will set it so they are required to change their password when they first login. I usually do this through LDAP Account

Dear Help, I'm currently running Samba with an LDAP passdb backend. I'm trying to figure out how to NOT allow a particular user to change their password (through Windows, or any interface). I've tried modifying the values for sambaPwdCanChange and sambaPwdMustChange for a particular user, but it seems like it only effects making them change their password, instead of whether or not

Hi all, Our company is looking at moving premises some time next year, the plan at the moment is to have a new server room with all new servers set up at the new building prior to moving the workstations over. I'm wondering if anyone has done anything like this and what the best way to proceed is. We are using an LDAP backend. I am not completely averse to unix UIDs changing (although I

When i set "ldap passwd sync" to "only" and I change password on some ldap samba user, password in attribute userPassword is never changed by samba daemon (to update NT and LM password I use smbk5pwd overlay). If i set pwd sync to

Hi, Im trying to run samba as a non-root user and I was wondering if this is even possible, and if not what is preventing it from being ran as a normal user??

Hi I have a PDC/BDC samba/ldap environment. PDC: samba 3.0.24 slapd 2.3.30 BDC: samba 3.2.5 slapd 2.4.11 Ldap replication is working fine, but I have noticed two issues 1- when a windows user change password on BDC, sambaPwdMustChange and sambaPwdCanChange is not synced on PDC (using ldap passwd sync = yes and unix password sync = no) 2- when using 'net sam set pwdmustchange' on
