similar to: Proposed patches for inclusion in Samba 3.0.25a

I have a Samba PDC in a one way trust relationship with a Windows Server 2003 DC such that Samba is the Trusting Domain. With Samba 3.0.23d I always used to leave winbindd running during a restart of smbd/nmbd. With 3.0.25, I have found that the domain "breaks" if I do this. Denote the Samba domain by SAMBA and the (trusted) Windows domain WINDOWS. When the domain "breaks",

Hi, I'm currently using v3.0.24 in production and all works well. I'm testing 3.0.25 to see if I'm going to have any problems with it if I have to upgrade. I have a problem with the "force group" setting if it is set to a local Unix group. This same setting works fine in 3.0.24 but I'm denied access to the same share in 3.0.25. If I comment off the "force

We restored to 3.0.23d after update to 3.0.25a because of strange dfs behavior. the detailed situation: on msdfs root server 'samba' ls -lR dfsroot/: drwxr-xr-x appl1 dfsroot/appl1 lrwxrwxrwx share1 -> msdfs:server1\share1 [dfs] comment = "SaMBa DFS root" path = /path.../dfsroot # next line does not work prior 3.0.25 !!! # hide unreadable = Yes

Hello all, I've tried everything I can think of, I've gone through Google and the Samba website and I can't come up with a fix for this problem. I've been running Samba 3 for at least the past year with no problems. I run a small FreeBSD 6.2 box that I use as a storage area for the windows XP systems on my network. Things have been fine up until 3.0.25 and 3.0.25a. Now,

Hi, I installed samba on a large Active Directory. All is working, I use winbind in pam and everything is working. However sometime it just hang for a while (say 20 seconds) and then go without problems. Currently I increased "winbind cache time" to mitigate the problem. There are mainly two situation where this hang occur 1- login 2- ls -l 3- groups I tried to analyze the problem a

I'm receiving the errors listed below. It also seems unable to map the root user uid 0 with this filter. That's not that big of a deal. Wbinfo -u and -g return output but getent passwd does not.

I have a problem with the latest Samba (3.0.25a) running under FreeBSD (recent STABLE: FreeBSD 6.2-STABLE #41: Mon Jun 11 19:24:30 CEST 2007). I run multiple Samba/FreeBSD file servers (in a Windows 2003 domain with Windows 2003 DCs), and everything worked quite nicely until this week. After an upgrade (both Samba and OS), I have a serious problem with access. I am using pam_winbind with

I was just setting a Windows Vista machine up on my network and have the following problems. If the user logs into the domain, then there are no network drives showing. It is as if the script is not executing. If I logon locally with an administrator and then run '\\server-name' to get a list of drives, I can see them but nothing shows up in any of them except for two of the shares

Hi, Does anyone know if there has been any more progress on the problem of browsing 'complex dfs roots' see http://lists.samba.org/archive/smb-clients/2006-February/000622.html Basically it occurs whenever you have a Microsoft Distributed File System Tree where the links are to subfolders of the destination share. Microsoft clients have no trouble browsing such trees. The Samba HOWTO

Folks, Maybe it's me, or my systems, but I've found that idmap restore simply doesn't work under samba-3.0.25rc3. When I try to import the idmap.dump file I create from one of my older systems into a fresh 3.0.25rc3 installation, I get a huge stream of errors along the line of "could not set mapping of (UID|GID) to sid xxxxx". This happened whether I was using

Since upgrading from 3.0.24 to 3.0.25a this past weekend, network drive connections are randomly being closed and immediately reopened. This creates "Delayed write failed" errors for Firefox and Thunderbird, various errors for Outlook with its PST files on network drives, and errors from programs like InDesign that "The network connection was lost for the file, or the file was

Hi guys, I haven't seen any replies to this, but im seeing the exact same thing with Fedora 7 samba (with all the currently available patches). using winbind into a an ADS realm. My samba is 3.0.25b. Clients are XP, 2003 r2 SE and EE 32bit, 2003 r2 SE 64 bit. All work ok for a while, then suddenly start doing the same as below. I.e., when mapped it looks fine, then some time in the future

Dear All, I have compiled 3.0.30/3.2.0 on a Solaris 10 Generic_127111-09.

I found a solution for this, but I don't understand why this made a difference.
