similar to: nsswitch wins reverse lookup

Perhaps this is a feature request... It would be nice if the ?doveadm who? command printed out the reverse dns name of where the user was logged in from. Would it be possible to either add some option to doveadm who for this, or make it the do it by default and add a ?-n? option (like many of the other programs that look up ip addresses by default) and take a -n option to not do that? Not

Voicepulse Connect provides callerid number, but not name. If the caller isn't already in my database I would like to do a reverse number lookup on the net to get a name. There are several web sites that allow you to do exactly that, for free. To do that from * would require that I write scripts to run the web query and get the name off the results page. Some of the sites I looked at

Thanks to a couple of pointers from readers here, plus the PROFILES.txt documentation (that wasn't in the old 1.9.17xx distribution I was using), I got profiles/policies working. Yay!!! However, another issue has cropped up for us. We had a network outage last week that cut our subnet off from any DNS nameservers. At that point, Samba quit working. Looking at the logs, client computers

I would like to see those of us who send an inquiry to this list also send a summary of what fixed the problem so that someone in the future could find the answer. I searched archives for an answer and only found questions. Since a lot of folks reply ot individuals then even the replies don't end up in the archives and so it would be nice if summaries were sent to the list. Anyway, enough

Hi, my samba 4 setup uses the samba internal DNS server. my network is 172.17.x.x I've added a reverse lookup zone 7.17.172.in-addr.arpa and one host in it 172.17.7.42 which is one of my DC on linux I got: host -t PTR 172.17.7.42 42.7.17.172.in-addr.arpa has no PTR record What is wrong? does the internal dns server of samba support reverse lookups? thanks Olivier

I would appreciate it if you can change the host value in the /etc/nsswitch.conf file from *hosts:* to *files wins dns * and try again by restarting the server, since the error occurs whenever I restart the server. However, If I change the host value which is *hosts: * in the /etc/nsswitch.conf file to *files dns wins *and restart the server everything runs perfectly, when the alignment of

I have a samba server at ip address aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd I can connect to it from clients on subnets aaa.bbb.eee. and aaa.bbb.fff. I can't connect to it from clients on ggg.hhh. smb.conf has hosts deny = all hosts allow = localhost, aaa.bbb., ggg.hhh. The client can successfully 'ping mysambaserver' (resolves to aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd). Doing 'net view \\mysambaserver' fails with

Can someone help me out here?

Bonjour, Mon serveur Samba 2.2.1a (sur Suse 7.3 PPC) a quelques soucis depuis 2/3 jours. Le dernier en date : les utilisateurs sont authentifi?s mais le lecteur ne se connecte pas correctement dans le script (si on ouvre le lecteur concern? il est vide). L'architecture : 2 serveur Samba (fichiers / impression) avec 30 utilisateurs depuis 1 an plusieurs serveurs NT4 dont le contr?leur

Hi SSH developers, I am wondering if someone could help explain a behavior of sshd. From canohost.c, get_remote_hostname(), it seems sshd will always try to reverse lookup the ip address of any client that attaches to it. The verify_reverse_mapping flag just turns off the forward lookup through DNS of the clients hostname, once the hostname has been determined. I am using Solaris 8 with ssh

I had no problem configuring WINS lookups, via nsswitch and libnss_wins.so, under Linux. The problem I am having is on Solaris. I am working with the 2.2.5 release of Samba. Everything in the nsswitch subdirectory compiles cleanly. wbinfo, which uses winbindd, resolves WINS entries no problem. (When I am running winbindd, that is.) Solaris appears to use /usr/lib/nss_wins.so.1 rather than

I am trying to get BackupPC working with automount as documented in this CentOS HowTo: http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/BackupPC I think my CentOS6 box's NetBIOS name resolving is not working correctly as when I try to access the mount for Win7 machine called Parallels I get this: [root at au ~]# ls /windows ls: cannot access /windows/parallels: No such file or directory parallels [root at au

Hello all, This my first mail in this list. We have succesfully setup a samba server at our 1st attempt, next we go in another site and try the same things but now it seems we got it all wrong! The facts: we have a linuxbox (named enlogic) (REdHat 7, kernel 2.2.18, samba 2.0.7)and one winbox win98se (named ndemou). Our workgroup is localenlogic. No other PC (not even a Hub because we've

Hello All, A good day to you all. Is there any way to prevent the rsyncd daemon f rom performing the forward/reverse lookups for rsync clients?

Is anyone aware of a service where we can lookup phone numbers to determine a name and/or name + address available in bulk? We want to look up every number called to our call center, so it will be tens of thousands per day. Services that charge 3 to 5 cents per lookup will get way too expensive very quickly. Thus, I'm looking for a service that can either license a database or

I've compiled, installed, and set up the first Samba release candidate three times this last week, and every time I've noticed that the provision step is not creating a Reverse Lookup Zone. It creates a Forward Lookup Zone with all the A records of the test clients that I join, but there's no Reverse Lookup Zone for the client's PTR records. When I was using the BIND DNS server,I

Hello, I have configured an samba AD DC for use with some windows and linux machines. The linux machines use samba for user auth and also as kerberos kdc for nfs mounts. This works fine so far but after a while the user can not access the nfs shares anymore. I tried to analyze the problem and finally found, that the obtaining a ticket for nfs service failes in this case because of a wrong

Hi everybody, According to my ddns denied problem with bind dlz zone i tried the internal dns server from samba4. The forward lookup zone is still working correctly and do ddns updates for my win7 Client. But when i create the reverse zone with the windows remote admin tools and restart samba4 the ddns isn't working for the reverse zone. No ip adresses will be added. How can i configure
