Hi all, I have setup samba / openldap as describes by the idealx howto and as such I am using the smbldap-tools. However, I would like to add the givenname and email address fields for all users. What is the best way to do this? I would prefer continuing to use the smbldap-tools, but I cannot seem to find a good way to do this. When I try to: $ smbldap-usermod -M testuser@testdomain.net

After, oh, six months of attempts here and there to read everyone's experiences with Samba/LDAP and inability for a windows 2000/XP machine to join the domain, I finally discovered what was not working properly. In my smb.conf I put: add machine script = /usr/local/sbin/smbldap-useradd -w "%u" As instructed by many How-to's and Idealx. However, I thought to myself, %m

Hi all! I work as a computer technician for a small school and have recently upgraded our network to use samba servers. Our main computers are a PDC, a BDC, a file server and a backup server, all using Red Hat Fedora Core 3 as a base. The clients on our network consist of machines with Windows XP and a few with Windows NT. Everything seems to work just fine except for some minor but annoying

Hi folks, I have been asked to force NTLMv2 logins to avoid use of LM hashes. To meet the requirement I added some lines to the smb.conf in [Global] (we only have that section anyway - this is purely for domain authentication with an ldap backend): client lanman auth = no client NTLMv2 auth = yes lanman auth = no min protocol = LANMAN2 ntlm auth = no This seemed to work - users

Hi, I have been trying to work this out on my own now for about a week and feel like I am so close..haha. I have samba setup as a PDC and in theory authenticating users through openLDAP with the use of smbldap-tools by IDEALX. I have checked the windows registry fix, but still no luck. When I try to join the domain as root, I get the error: "Username could not be found" Any help would

I have Samba and LDAP up and running, but I'm having problems editing the password policy using pdbedit. (I'm running 3.0.22) I've had a look at the man page for pdbedit but I don't really fully understand what it does in relation to passwd backends. Does pdbedit update just one backend and expect a user to export the updates to other backends? I think I've set up ldap as

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 all, I had been running a Samba pdc using the standard tdbsam backend on CentOS 4.5 supporting 20+ WinXPsp2 workstations and a Win2k3 Terminal Server. This set up was running fine for arroung 18 months maybe more. The above system was built on ageing hardware that used to be a Win 2k server that died from OS corruption. Due to the expanding client needs there was good reason to replace

Hi there, I've been going through the samba 3 by example book and have now successfully replaced my NT 4 PDC with a Linux machine running samba and an LDAP backend. Beautiful.

Hi Samba Users, I'm using a typical Samba/LDAP Solution. My PDC is running samba 3.0.14a on RHEL4. This is also my acting WINS server. WINS resolution appears to be working fine for all other PC's on the network. It works for my BDC, and Domain member servers and the various windows clients on the network. However WINS does not appear to work on the PDC itself. On the pdc i have the

Hello! I'm trying to join a Windows XP (64 bit version) machine to a Samba 3.0.21a domain via smbldap-tools 0.9.1 on FreeBSD 6.0-RELEASE-p4 and I'm continually getting the message "The user name could not be found."

Hi, I am trying to execute a logon script when a user access the domain. For some reason the following is not executing. I don't want to enable roaming profiles so I have set 'logon home' and logon path' to null - I thought perhaps that this was causing a problem; but it hasn't made a difference. I also verified that my logon.bat is a DOS formatted file. Here's my
