similar to: Samba + LDAP + displayName attribute

Hi, I am using the Idealx smbldap scripts to manage my samba users in an OpenLDAP backend. The smbldap.conf specifies the value for the gecos attribute, which is then propogated to the displayName attribute by the smbldap-useradd script. As a result when I log on to windows the user is displayed as "System User" in the start menu (and presumably other places as well). Ideally there

Hi, Sorry for my urgent request, but we have a problem with user who have strange displayname Yesterday (23/02/2014), we do a classic-upgrade from a ldap tree to a DC server. But user with accent have bad displayName and maybe cause problem when user try to connect to her computer. I'm unable to change displayName by ADUC, ldbmodify or ldbedit. GENSEC backend 'gssapi_spnego'

Configuration: Samba 2.2.8a with openLDAP 2.1.30 on a SeSE 8.2. server When adding a user using a ldif file we give the user a given name, say Ruud Baart. The cn and uid are the same, say 21cs12345 (a studentnumber). After adding the user to LDAP the displayname is as expected: "Ruud Baart". However after smbpasswd -a 21cs12345 -s secret the displayname is "21cs12345".

Hi, i just migrated my NT Domain to samba (3.0.20) with ldapsam. Now, when i try to delete a user via usrmgr, i get an 'access denied' error. The log says: Object class violation (attribute 'displayName' not allowed) And thats true. I have 'ldap delete dn = no' in the configfile, and hence only some attributes are deleted. The list of these attributes is in lib/smbldap.c,

In 3.0.20a/ldapsam the Usrmgr shows in the all users view the displayName attribute as full name, but in the user properties view the cn attribute. Seems a little bit inconsistent to me, shouldn't be the algorithm to retrieve the full name always the same? Daniel

Hi, I have managed to configure Samba+LDAP+smbldap-tools. Everything works fine, except one strange problem is appearing. When I connect with Windows tool UserManagerForDomains or I want to create a share on a Wndows box I can see the users but no groups. With UserManagerForDomains is see following: Users: All the users Groups: none, just description of Replicators Group and the

Hi everybody, first of all, thanks Timo for version 2.0. Currently I want to sort mails server-side by displayname of FROM and TO. There is an extension for it, but I think dovecot does not support it at the moment. It is defined in RFC 5957: https://www.tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5957 Is there an dovecot extension for it, how can I get that running? Michael

Hello everybody. I have a question that has stumped me and the usual "apply" tricks don't seem to work. I run a course where each student's performance is marked by one or more assessors. I have a data frame containing students' names, assessors' names and their marks, arranged as follows: ID student assessor Q1A Q1B Q1C Q2A Q2B Q3 1 2152833

Hy, I just install OpenLDAP 2.0 and Samba 3.0. (both from RPM). I used tools from idealx (found in src from Samba 3.0) to populate the ldap tree. My ldap is empty when i start, i just added index and samba.schema in slapd.conf. I used net rpc getsid to generate my domain SID and put in the smbldap_conf.pm with others options (dc, ou, dn etc.) I didn't get any error with this tool, it create

I've tried numerous times but cannot get Vampire to bring across all groups or add users to all groups that they belong to. Sometimes I get everygroup except 1, other times not so lucky.

I think I've found a bug in the LDAP stuff. I've got a LDAP backend setup based on the idealx scripts. When I try to join a machine to my domain, I get the following. The important bit I want to point out is that the LDAP search is looking for (a lot of) properties, but it seems to be looking for _ALL_ objectClass=sambaSamAccount's. At this point in the trace, it should be trying to

Hi, I am trying to set up a SAMBA PDC using LDAP for authentication.

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, The Problem: I have a samba domain using LDAP as the backend, complete with the IdealX LDAP scripts. Most of my Unix boxes (certainly anything which does any Samba stuff) authenticates against the same LDAP backend, using it for groups and users. I need to grant some people sufficient priviliges to add workstations to the domain, but I don't want to give them the root password in
