similar to: Samba NT Domain User/Group Confusion

I have a problem with a Member Server on Samba 3.0.28a running on Ubuntu Heady. Both systems were recently upgraded using Ubuntu's automated upgrade. It's also possible I broke a working configuration by accident. The shares on the Member server are visible on the XP clients and some users can authenticate properly. At least one user on one XP desktop cannot. The shares are visible

I have having problems with what should be a fairly simple configuration. I have a PDC and a Member server accessed by several windows workstation. The PDC seem to be working fine, but every time I restart the network (usually for an update) all users have problems accessing the shares on the Member Server. Sometimes only a few share are accessible. sometime none. I have been able to get it

We have two servers, one PDC and one Domain Member Server. I have been having problems with the Domain Member Server since a recent upgrade to Samba 3.0.28a on Ubuntu. Every time samba is restarted users lose access to the shares on the Member Server. It appears to be related to group mapping. Users on the Domain Member (Louise) seem to be GID "users", not GID "samba" as

I've posted about this problem several times but so far nothing has worked. Whenever I restart my samba servers the member server refuses to authenticate users. Sometimes is will only authenticate some users on some shares. Usually by fiddling with it I can eventually get it to work but I can't identify the solution so I can replicate it. Once it finally starts to work it works

I'm running out of things to check. I have two servers running Samba 2.3.3, one as a Domain Controller one as a Member Server. Both are running Ubuntu 8.10. smbd, nmbd and winbindd using the tdb back end are running on both. On the Member Server when I access the [Projects] share everything works as expected. When I access the [Windows] share I get prompted for a user name and password

We have a Windows Domain NT. We are setting up four samba Servers, two new and 2 legacy servers. The new server are Ubuntu AMD64 Linux with Samba 3.0.22 One of these is the PDC. The legacy Servers are Solaris 8 running Samba 3.0.24. We are using winbindd and local tdb files on the PDC for authentication. We plan to migrate to LDAP latter. I have used SWAT to configure each server. I have

Hi All, I have just joined this list, and this is my first post - so please bear with me. I am running debian testing (sarge) with a 2.4.23-1-686 kernel, and a self compiled samba-3.0.0final (--with-quotas), deployed from self built *.debs. It is running as a PDC (smb.conf at bottom of post), and I have successfully mapped "Domain Users" to unixgroup users, "Domain Admins"

Heya all, So I've finally got a machine on this Samba 3 domain. Yey. Its an XP Pro box, so I grabbed the UsrMgr.exe and SrvMgr.exe programs from Microsoft, and hoped to at least use UsrMgr to see lists of users, maybe even as a full User manager, since I can't find a decent one that does all the samba3 stuff. Anyway, I'm on the domain, and I run the UsrMgr.exe program and I get an

I am moving our Samba Server from Solaris to Linux on a new server. I have the users moved the users home directories moved and showing up correctly on the workstations. The Profiles are in the Users home directory. Users profiles seem to be saving correctly and being read, however no changes can be made to them. The new server are Ubuntu AMD64 Linux with Samba 3.0.22 One of these is the

I have a problem with accessing two share. Sigma works as expected one Windows always asks for a login name even though their smb.conf entries are the same; I even tried adding public to the Windows share with no success.

I may have a clue. I have two servers running Samba 3.2.3, one as a Domain Controller one as a Member Server. Both are running Ubuntu 8.10. smbd, nmbd and winbindd using the tdb back end are running on both. On the Member Server when I access the [Projects] share everything works as expected. When I access the [Windows] share I get prompted for a user name and password but no combination

I just upgraded my Member Server to 3.2.4 on Ubuntu. I have a permissions problem. Users can create files on the Samba shares but they cannot delete files. Here is a typical share definition.

I have two servers running Samba, one as a Domain Controller one as a Member Server. Both are running Ubuntu 8.10 and running smbd, nmbd and winbindd using the tdb back end.

I have had a long term problem with my set up. winbind authentication is erratic. Whenever I restart one of my servers the member server refuses to authenticate users. Sometimes is will only authenticate some users on some shares. Usually by fiddling with it I can eventually get it to work but I can't identify the solution so I can replicate it.

Hello! I'm the email admin for a reasonably large Exchange/NT system, trying to make a go of a Linux/SLOX replacement as an example of what can be done. Obviously, to do my job I need to run a fair bit of Windows software, and this is where Wine comes in. One of the real biggies is the NT Server Administration tools (the ones provided to run from a workstation) such as USRMGR.EXE and

Samba 3.0.23d, on Debian Sarge - using the samba.org packages smbldap-tools 0.9.2 Greetings all, I am trying to set up a new PDC using LDAP, etc. Adding/deleting/modifying users in LDAP works fine using phpldapadmin. These users also work just fine logging in/out. I am trying to get the usrmgr tool to also work, so im working on the scripts on the server. I am getting this error however when

I need help understanding what is happening and trouble shooting. I have two servers running Samba 2.3.3, one as a Domain Controller one as a Member Server. Both are running Ubuntu 8.10. smbd, nmbd and winbindd using the tdb back end are running on both. I have two shares on the member server and as far as I can tell they are identical. [Projects] works as expected but [Windows] always asks

Hello, I'm using Samba 3.0.1 with LDAP backend running as a PDC here. When I start up usrmgr.exe from Windows NT, it will read all the users (or computers, for srvmgr.exe) in the domain and report them back correctly. However, whomever I am logged in as ( including gid 512 users) it will not let me see details or change anything. In the logs after trying to view a users details I will
