similar to: Samba authentication slow after upgrade to Samba 3

Hello! I was wondering if it's possible to make Windows NT and Samba 3 work togheter. I found an old question with the same problem I have. Samba 3 is not authenticating WinNT machines. My smb.conf is: [global] workgroup = DESQ-TESTE server string = Teste (Samba %v) interfaces = 143.106.19.25/255.255.255.192, 127. bind interfaces only = Yes encrypt passwords = No password server =

I'm using FC8 Server with Samba 3.0.30-fc8 and have an erratic problem assecing the share.

Hello, we migrate from Samba 2.2 to Samba 3.020b. We have the problem now, that some clients can not connect to the Samba Server. In the log there are messages like that: [2006/02/23 08:49:20, 2] smbd/sesssetup.c:setup_new_vc_session(704) setup_new_vc_session: New VC == 0, if NT4.x compatible we would close all old resources. [2006/02/23 08:49:20, 2] auth/pampass.c:smb_pam_auth(514)

from samba 3.0.9 to 3.0.13 I can not access my shares from a NT4 box as usual before upgrading. I can access samba shares from linux via mount //server/testuser /mnt -o username=testuser,password=testpass as before. Even the newest version (3.0.14a) from samba.org doesnt't help. What has happened to samba ??? Any hints ?? Thanks for your thoughts, G?tz.

Greetings all, I'm working on attempting to get SAMBA to work with a product line called CryptoCard. I *should* be able to get it to work one of two ways, either through the use of CryptoCard's provided PAM module, or through RADIUS authentication. Currently, I cannot seem to get PAM authentication to work at all. This is what is in the 'samba' file for PAM: auth

Hi, I have a Samba server that I have just transitioned from Samba v2 to v3 and at the same time I have changed from share mode security to user mode security. I having problems allowing guest access to some of my shares on the server. I have some shares (such as apps and cdrom etc) that I would like to allow anyone to access - even if they do not have an login account on the Samba server. This

Hi again, as I am finally back working on the problem, I add the smb.conf in the hope somebody can see what I am doing wrong. Samba Version is 3.0.14a from Debian Sarge. Attached is my smb.conf - there may be some unnecessary things in it meanwhile due to too much trying, but anyways. Meanwhile there are some more clients that have problems with password authentication. One thing I noticed is

We are a primarily Linux company with a NIS backend, but we keep a couple "bridge boxes" for Windows users (on a Windows PDC) to connect to their unix accounts and access data. Under Samba 2.2, this was fairly easy with "encrypt passwords = no" turned on. But I can't figure out how to make it work with Samba 3. Does Samba 3 not support a unix passwd backend, or am I

Hi, Please can someone confirm to me how guest access should work on a Samba 3 Server configured for User Mode Security. Am I correct in thinking that shares configured as guest OK should be accessible by users without accounts on the server and hence they should not have to supply login name and password. (This used to work OK on Samba 2 and Share Mode security) I want to share out

I'm running version 2.0 beta. During the initial installation, I configured Samba to authenticate with an NT server. It worked as expected. Now, I want to reconfigure Samba with security = user. I've set encryption = no (and insured that the NT client is sending plain text passwords), and I've removed the references in the smb.conf file to PASSWORD SERVER =. As I expected, the NT

Hi, I've setup my Mandrake 10.0 box to use winbind authentication. However, I noticed that root with local files password login fails at first try after reboot. Also there's no way I can authenticate using root when screen is locked. My nsswitch.conf looks like passwd files nis nisplus winbind Won't this first they local files then winbind? Regards, Norman

Hi! I'm looking for a GUI for samba users management. I would try swat but I don't succeed to login the first time (I try admin ldap password and root password). Why? Thanks, Fabio

Hi, I am too having the same problem when printing, I could not find a solution other than as you do, remove it after. I am still looking at this issue and will send to this list if I get a solution if no-one replies. :) Dave > -----Original Message----- > From: > samba-bounces+david.ellison=atkinsglobal.com@lists.samba.org >

I'm running a small Linux server with samba installed on it I want to access this server from an XP client which is a member of a ad-domain but when trying to logon XP putts in ad-domain-name\username as logon name to the samba server, how can I work around this?

Hello and Thanks in Advance, I've been at this for three days now and can't think of anything else to try. Been through the docs and #samba on openprojects and even begged for direction in #samba-technical who suggested writing here. On the ancient RedHat 5.2 server (SAMBA 1.9?) both boxes work OK and continue to work OK with both servers now up (new one is from Mandrake 8.2 - SAMBA

I was hoping to set up fail2ban to block IP addresses that generate too many Samba password failures, but it needs a syslog message with the IP address of the computer that failed password authentication. Unfortunately, Samba doesn't seem to do this in my environment. Here's a sample error message: smbd[312]: smb_pam_passcheck: PAM: smb_pam_auth failed - Rejecting User brutus ! I

Hi everyone; I'm having some trouble with samba on a centos 5 box; the box has been configured to authenticate against an ldap server via authconfig....authentication for normal use (console, ssh) works great....I'm having some trouble with samba using single ldap users or local users....It's rather weird, shares in which access restrictions are based upon ldap groups are working
