similar to: Unable to set/authenticate to correct domain...

This is on RHE4, I am getting an invalid DN error. Is there a good resource site for this type of configuration issue? There is a lot of info that comes up through google but I am having no luck finding anything relevant (or that seems relevant to me).

Hello, I can't join a winxp box to my samba domain. I just have one samba server, meant to act as a PDC for domain='CHI'. Any ideas how to troubleshoot and/or remedy? Thanks, Jon Context: ------------ samba v3.3.8 on CentOS v5.5, using ldapsam backend. Domainname ='CHI'. smbldap-tools v0.9.6. I 'populated' the ldap with 'smbldap-populate'. I try to join

So this got me thinking that maybe a chunk of my problem is with LDAP itself on the server. Executing "slapcat" shows me what I believe to be the correct content, including what looks like appropriate content underneath the following: dn: sambaDomainName=DRBHOME,dc=drbhome,dc=ca That seems to answer the question about whether the domain info is actually there. >> Can you also

Hi everybody, I think i need a samba guru to solve this issue, because googling for months did not help and the problem is becoming pressing. I'm facing an annoying problem with samba. In detail, there is something wrong with the password handling. It happens from windows, mac or linux clients. Randomly (probably after $num days), the system asks to the user to change the password. After the

I am having a problem getting users that were added in smbldap-useradd to be able to login. After I add them they are visible, but you can see I get this error - pdb_get_group_sid: Failed to find Unix account for test10 I believe that this has something to do with nss_ldap. because doing a getent passwd, it doesn't display any smb info. Any debugging info or help would be amazing, I'm

Hi all, Please help Ive been wasting days at this... I am not trying to create a PDC, I am not joining an active directory, I am not needing samba schema in my openldap (or do I?), I am not trying to use winbind and idmaps for translations from SID to UID/GID, I just want my samba server which shares linux home directories to authenticate user+password against my existing linux based openldap

Hello, I've been trying to get part of a disk visible from a HP J5600 Unix machine (hostname = oed209, IP = 192.168.33.209) running HP-UX 10.26 and Samba v1.9.18p7 to a MicronPC XKE Laptop (hostname = oed123, IP = 192.168.33.123) running W98SE. Net masks on both machines are set to 255.255.255.0. Neither machine uses DHCP. Hostnames, their aliases, and their IP addresses are defined on both

After some reading and attempts, I managed to set the Samba4 with the external openldap. I tried to add a user through the command "smbpasswd", but an error occurred, which follows below: root at sol:~# smbpasswd -a billy > > smbldap_search_domain_info: Searching >> for:[(&(objectClass=sambaDomain)(sambaDomainName=POA))] > > smbldap_open_connection: connection

Hi Folks, I had a crack at setting up a Samba PDC using a fresh installation of FDS 1.2.4 as the backend on one of our RHEL 5.3 servers per the Wiki Howto:Samba but ran into a few issues. In the section 'Populating FDS with PDC Entry', it instructs the user to run 'net getlocalsid'. This results in the following: [root at mybox logs]# net getlocalsid

Hi, I have been able to successfully install Samba4 and OpenLDAP and connect them via SSL. The file samba.schema is also loaded into OpenLDAP, but when I start samba server it looks like it is expecting some basic structure. My Question at this point is how to provide this the easisest way? Currently the OpenLDAP DB is entirely empty (virgin) so Samba4 could create anything it needs. cat

Hi, I had a working enviroment of one PDC and several BDCs. The PDC is Samba version 3.6.6. After replacing of one BDC, I've started to get the following error in LDAP master server: Aug 22 13:44:59 gw slapd[28598]: conn=46129 op=51 do_search: invalid dn (sambaDomainName=Administrator,(null)) and on the PDC: root@:~# net getlocalsid smbldap_search_domain_info: Adding domain info for XXX

Hi We have a Samba server that authenticates with an openldap server. Or it used to. We had a power cut last week and after a bit of struggling everything came back, but not Samba. Previously our smb.conf file included the line passdb backend = ldapsam:ldap://server.domain.net/ With this line in place the connection to the LDAP server fails, and peoples shares drop off every few minutes. I

I am running samba as a fileserver, having some users (LDAP backend) and lots of files. No machines ever joined this setup. Now I want to join some clients, but want to upgrade to AD before I do that. Configuration is quite old, but had no issues so far. I've been following https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Migrating_a_Samba_NT4_Domain_to_Samba_AD_(Classic_Upgrade) Since the LDAP backend

Hi I am testing the migration from our actual Samba domain, based on Samba 3.3.8 and LDAP (389DS) to Samba 4. I have followed the Samba4 Howto, and I have successfully compiled it. Now I am running the classicupgrade command, but I am getting some errors. First of them is that the script is ignoring the "ldap group suffix" parameter in smb.conf, and is always searching in the

Alight, I've been working on this for too many hours straight. Any help would be much appreciated! (I posted this online to linux questions, it could be easier to read on there... http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-server-73/samba-and-openldap-authentication-issues-637647/) The problem is users created in smbldap-useradd can not login, unless they also are a local user. for

I know this is something which should have a simple fix but I'm failing to see it somehow. I'm moving samba service between a couple of FreeBSD systems (9.3 to 10.2), and I'm stuck on getting samba on the new machine to connect to our openldap server over ssl - frustrating since I've been running samba+ldap for 15 years or so; feel sure I'm missing something basic!
