similar to: Bad Password Count Problem -- LDAP connection failed

Dear Help, I currently have a Samba PDC along with multiple BDCs using an eDirectory LDAP backend. While trying to figure out how to get the bad password account lockout feature to work, I managed to somehow mess up the samba PDC. If a user attempts to authenticate against the PDC with the correct password, all is well and works as usual. However, if I use an incorrect password, the Windows

I'm using Debian Sarge, Samba (3.1.14a) with the ldapsam backend, and OpenLDAP (2.2.23). When attempting to join an Windows XP+SP2 computer (BILLGATES) to my domain (WORKGROUP), using the Administrator account, I am told by windows: 'Access denied.' The logs (attached) seem to indicate that the user Administrator is being authenticated (which would have? to use LDAP), but when It

Hi everyone, I'm unable to make the account lockout to work properly. & this is driving me mad. I am running samba Version 3.0.23c-1.fc5 as a PDC with openldap 2.3.19 on a fc5 (all packages from yum). I was running a 3.0.21 with the same issue. I'm using as well the Idealx script to manage the LDAP. The fact: I have a very strange behavior. The domain policy have been setup with the

Hi all! I'm settting up a samba PDC on SuSE 9.3 with samba 3 using OpenLDAP. I've got some problems when i try to join a Windows XP Pro sp2 worstation into the samba PDC. Windows tell me that i dont have access to join the domain, and samba logfiles says that LDAP can't be running as non-root. When I try to join the domain from XP it asks after login and passwd and here i've try

I am facing a very strange problem with samba running as PDC and using LDAP. The new users that I create using smbldap-tools aren't able to log in, but they can browse shares on the server. I had the problem with samba 2.2 and hoped it would be solved with 3.0. I spent two days testing without success even with samba 3.0.2pre1. In the log I can't see anything wrong : it says "sam

Hi. I'm having a big trouble. We migrate a NT PDC to a Samba PDC. No problems in migration. Everything works fine. The problem is: I can't add a NT machine to Domain. Simply does not work. XP and W2K works great. I started using Debian Sarge Package 3.0.14. In this version I could not manage groups using the Domain User Manager from NT. So I updated to 3.0.23cpackages from samba.org.

Hello again, I ancounter another problem. When a user logs in with a Windows XP Prof. machine he can't delete the file/folder again. He can add a file/folder and can do everything with it but but not delete it again. Not even a view to the seetings is possible (all "right-click" things don't work). When the user uses a Windows 2000 machine he can do everything just fine (create,

Hello, I seem to be having an issue where one of my BDC servers constantly needs to rebind to the "master" ldap server (ldap1.ae-solutions.com). Whenever this happens I see several entries in the log like this: "smbldap_search_ext: waiting 928 milliseconds for LDAP replication." It appears to cause delay when browsing samba shares whenever this happens. The master

Greetings, I would like some help figuring this out. I really don't know what to do anymore. whenever I try to join an XP machine to the domain it comes up that username or password is not correct. However I know that the credentials are correct, but when I check the logs of that specific machine, this comes up: [2010/09/24 11:42:38, 5] auth/auth_util.c:make_user_info_map(161)

Ok, this one is driving me nuts. I am using smbk5pwd to sync samba, ldap, and heimdal kerberos passwords. I have the overlay working if called from the ldappasswd command. However, if I set "ldap passwd sync = only", I get no joy from Samba. It does a series of searches, but doesn't send any kind of password update request to the server. If I use ldap passwd sync = yes, then

think it is a bug of samba but maybe someone can help me figure this out :-) Attached is the log and the relevant parts of smb.conf p.s. the share's name is 'privat' thanks & regards vinz ------=_20110202165921_20608 Content-Type: text/plain; name="smb.conf" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="smb.conf" #

Hi Daryl, > I recently migrated our samba PDC to an LDAP backend on a test machine. > Testing my account policies, I found out that the password lockout did not > work. bad password lockout works fine in Samba AD mode. Is there a technical reason for you to keep on using PDC NT4 mode? In AD mode, you'll also get a LDAP, and it will be much easier to setup and manage! By the way,

Experts, We've just migrated from samba 2.2.8a to samba 3.0.20b in a very large corporate environment. Everything was really fine in our lab, but we began experiment serious load problems on the productive servers the morning after the procedure took place. I'll try (briefly) to describe the characteristics of the scenario: Resources: Old Environment: Hardware:

I found out the answer to why the bad password count was failing by following the stack trace If anyone has the same problem, this was caused by my access rights being too restrictive. source/passdb/Init_sam_from_ldap.c:1064 => There is a "goto fn_exit;" in case ldapsam_get_entry_timestamp() fails before the cache is read via login_cache_read. This function will fail if it cannot

Hi all I have a samba 3.0.21c with ldap backend , i have about 100 users connecting to my domain. i have a linux system which acts as a file server (prjsrv01) where i have declared 2 shares. projects and datalib. The users get drives mapped with the help of logon script. so i map projects share as P: drive net use p: //prjsrv01/projects. but whent the logon script runs the command. it says

Hi Denis, Thanks for your suggestion When I looked into Samba4 AD, I figured it would take too much effort to port our infrastructure to it, seemingly without benefits We already have a quite extensive network architecture with OpenLDAP acting as a LDAP server. Samba4 AD seems to require its own LDAP implementation (and some more quirks IIRC). There's also the additional DNS configuration

I'm running the samba-client-3.0.20-0.1 SUSE RPM. I was using the version that came with 9.3 but upgraded to see if this specific problem would go away. Guest access does not appear to be working correctly, and it looks like the problem is due to guest not getting mapped into the LDAP query correctly. Specifically, I can login with local account, join workstation to the domain, browse
