similar to: ldap and computer accounts

The solution is quite simple: You need to configure pam-nss for samba to work. Essentially samba is using a 'getent' call to look up computers independent is configured as passdb backend. That means the pam-nss must be configured for samba to find the computer entries in ldap. I find this very much counter-intuitive ! Thanks to Tom Crummey <tom@ee.ucl.ac.uk> and John Drescher

Hello All, I am having a very strange problem with samba 3.0.23c. I upgraded everything from 3.0.9 and I am able to smbclient to the samba 3.0.23c PDC with the administrator user just fine. When I go to add a machine to the domain, it adds the unix machine account to the ou=computers like it is supposed to but none of the samba entries are added. I get an error on the windows side of

Hi, all! I'm using samba-3.0.23 (Revision: 16921, from ports collection, under FreeBSD 6.1 with OpenLDAP 2.3.24 & smbldap-tools-0.9.2a) as PDC with following config: [global] dos charset = CP1251 unix charset = KOI8-R workgroup = DOMAIN server string = Samba Server password server = passdb backend = ldapsam passwd program =

I have spent days now trying to debug why I can not add machines to the domain. I am using samba 3.0.23c with an openldap backend. I can authenticate fine using smbclient with the administrator account but when I go to add a machine it fails. I have checked the debug logs and know what is happening, I am just not sure why or how to fix it. I am using the idealx scripts to add machines.

Our Samba server was recently the recipient of a major upgrade. I thought all the kinks were worked out, but apparently not. I think this is the first time I've tried to join a machine account to the domain since the upgrade. I've tried using smbldap-tools and also just using smbpasswd (I have my users in LDAP). I'll also say that 'net join' works just fine from my Samba

Hi !!!!! I have installed samba 3.5.4 on OpenSuSE 11.3. It's configured as a PDC with LDAP backend.The LDAP backend was populated with the help of smbldap-tools.

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

Without actually thoroughly thinking about it, I updated my system yesterday with the latest qemu-kvm. rpm -qa shows qemu-kvm-0.13.0-0.5.20100809git25fdf4a.fc13.x86_64 See also: virsh # version Compiled against library: libvir 0.8.2 Using library: libvir 0.8.2 Using API: QEMU 0.8.2 Running hypervisor: QEMU 0.13.50 Now when I attempt to start a domain that was working perfectly well prior to

All, I've migrated a share from an older samba server (3.0.33) running on a Sun Solaris box to a newer samba server (3.6.23) running on a RedHat Linux 6 box. For the most part I've tried to keep the configuration the same (simply to make the migration easier since I'm not an expert on Samba config options). I got the authentication working (security=domain) but now I'm

Hi All I am running two instances of samba on same box. One instance of samba has joined AD domain ABC and the other 123. My workstation is on ABC domain and when I try to connect to samba server on ABC domain, it asks me for user name and password and then fails. If I put IP address instead it works. At the same time, when I try to connect to 123 domain, it asks me for user name and password and

I'm receiving the errors listed below. It also seems unable to map the root user uid 0 with this filter. That's not that big of a deal. Wbinfo -u and -g return output but getent passwd does not.

Hello List, below our smb.conf and loglevel 5 output of a failed authentication. We want to get the Unix User details from MS-SFU using the new idmap_ad Backend. If the Windows User is mapped to local name it's all fine. But if we want to use our SFU Users it fails. We believe getpwnam() on AIX is faulty. "id username" and login works for all users local and AD! Any ideas how to

I see in my workstation log trying to connect to my samba server an attempt to find my username. If I do wbinfo -u | grep -i davidsha, it returns INS+DavidSha. Do I need to change something so that it tries more combinations or something? I thought just passwords were case sensitive.

I'm building a replacement samba 3.5.6 domain controller to replace an old 3.0 one. Some other things are changing too. Our user accounts are now in LDAP rather than flat files (although the machine trust accounts will remain in a flat file), but that should be hidden from samba as it's going to be done through NSS. The smbpasswd file is a TDB file and will remain so. Our users

Running Samba mostly on Redhat 5 with version 3.5.4-0.83 Also failed on Debian 3.5.6 and Solaris with a 3.5 version. Logging details here are from Redhat case. We have a similar problem on all Unix/Linux systems using ADS as the backend authentication for samba shares on Unix/Linux. It was working before today and we didn't change anything. Today, any time we try smbclient or a Windows drive

Hi all: I create one share named gr?zer but the share can?t be accessed.I looked into the log, and find the share name will be transformed to upper case and then lower case. The ASCII can be transformed in between successfully, but German can?t. It leaded to access failed. I also tried the upper case share gr?zer, and it works successfully. It seems the lower case can?t be transformed back

Sorry for the log log file dump, but while looking at some problems mapping drives, I've run across some stuff. Below is a chunk of my log when I successfully map a network drive from a WinXP client to a Samba 3.0-alpha18 server. The thing that bothers me is that it looks like my DOMAIN\USERNAME combination isn't being honored and I'm getting in based on a check to the locally
