Hi all, I've got some problems with vista sp1 + samba 3.0.28a vista will not save the profiles nor load them. ! I'm all familiar with the .V2 thing. vista however does create the "profilename.V2" directory, but does not populate it with the data Xp machines work like a charm however. profiles path's are: \\<server>\profiles\testuser so the problem with the .V2 part is

Hello. I've setup a FreeBSD 4.x machine with Samba 2.x and and OpenLDAP backend. I recently upgraded to Samba 3.0.10 and put "passdb backend=ldapsam_compat" in smb.conf. Now, everythings seems to work all right, but I see a lot of this entries in the logs: Feb 17 19:42:27 xxxxx smbd[44170]: get_alias_user_groups: gid of user yyyyyyy doesn't exist. Check your /etc/passwd

Hello. I've searched through the list and saw this problem was reported several month ago, along with gdb traces, but in the end I don't see any solution or workaround suggested. I've recently build a file server on top of FreeBSD amd64 SMP: this is also a BDC and is working with an ldapsam_compat backend. The (secondary) LDAP server is on the same machine. Right now I've

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I have seen this problem posted several times and the common answer doesn't seem to be doing it for me.

freebsd 5.3, samba 3.10 I get this far with LDAP/Samba integrationg. Stuck on creating users/machines with smbpasswd -a (-m) username command. schema files weren't modified, everything else is pretty much at defaults. First the relevant config parts: passdb backend = ldapsam_compat:ldap://localhost/ ldap suffix = dc=company,dc=com ldap machine suffix = ou=Computers ldap user suffix =

I'm in the process of replacing a Samba 2.2.12 PDC with Samba 3.0.14a-Debian. An LDAP database serves as the user data store, and I've made no changes to the Samba 2.2.x-compatible LDAP records. Since I don't relish LDAP schema changes, I've specified ldapsam_compat as my passdb backend; I figured that since I was already running a compatible LDAP schema, there was no need to make

Background on setup Here is some basic background of my setup I have 3 domains setup running over a IPSEC tunnel over the Internet with one PDC BDC and some file servers at each location all running samba (I am sorry I do not have the version number in front of me for samba) from SUSE enterprise 10 using the LDAP backend. There is a trust setup between all the domains and the IPSEC tunnels is

Hello. I've got a Samba server and I'd like it to be master browser and everything else except domain controller (the customers wants a workgroup, not a domain). Lately a Windows 2003 server was added to the net and then I guess it was removed. I keep getting messages like the following in the logs: > Apr 10 03:07:51 apocalypse nmbd[57552]: [2005/04/10 03:07:51, 0]

Hi all, I''m running XP and 2003 Server fine as HVM guests (under a 32 bit non-pae Xen 3.0.3 self-compiled). I''ve read that Vista can *not* be /installed/ under Xen for it checks for ACPI support and install fails if it isn''t present. What if I do the install first from, say, plain Qemu (I''re reused qemu images from Xen) or VMWare (I''ve converted

Hello, My mail system is build with postfix, dovecot and roundcube. In first time users can view and "manage" their mail only on the webmail. So this one (webmail) use IMAP (no tls/ssl at all) authentication to give access to users maildir. This connection is made on the 'loopback' interface and use PLAIN method. This works fine (configuration below without ssl parameters).

Hi, I'm having a Samba 3.2.3 that is running has a PDC and it is working quite well with XP. When I try to login with Vista it can not load the profiles so I'm getting a message saying that I'm using a temporary profile and it will be lost on next reboot. My home drive is map, I have access to my profile. So I really don't understand why can't I put my profile in the

Hi All, I've happily had Samba (3.0.24) operating as DC for my Win2k/XP network for years. I've just upgraded to Vista and eveything seems to be working fine (shares, domain logons) apart from roaming profiles. Just after logging on, the following error appears in a bubble from the system tray: "Your user profile was not loaded correctly! You have been logged on with a temporary

Hello, I am trying to test out the new beta 3.0 version but I am running into an issue with GID/UID's in my OpenLDAP tree. I have compiled the beta with: --with-ldapsam --with-ads=no I do not run a PDC environment and do not plan to do so. The problem I see in the log is this error: sid_to_gid: SID S-1-5 bla bla -1002 is *NOT* a group (the user that I am trying to authenticate with has a

Hi there I am using Samba 3.0 release with the ldapsam_compat backend until we are ready to migrate to the new LDAP samba schema. Using the same "root" LDAP user (and smbldap-tools) that Samba 2.28 allowed me to add workstations to the domain successfully, I receive a new error - "No mapping between account names and security IDs was done". When I switch to the domain

Hi, Anyone here got networking under Vista? I''m using the emulated realtek network device and have configured IP in the Windows guest. tcpdump confirms that the guest is arping and that responses are going to the tun network device, however for some reason Vista doesn''t seem to be getting the responses.... I''d be interested to know if anybody else has seen /

Grettings, all I have a bizarre problem on a laptop in my Samba 3.3.4 domain. This domain includes a mixture of XP Pro and Vista Ultimate clients. I had just completed a migration to this new domain (from a Samba 2.2.8a domain), and all seemed happy and well - machines had rebooted and were still active in the domain, users were logging in with no problem, shares were working perfectly - all

Hi everybody, after many weeks of searching/trying, I still can't manage to get vista to use/save roaming profiles with samba as PDC... It has apparently worked a few times in the beginning since the profiles directories are populated. Could it be related to a Vista update or SP1? Here's what I did so far: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\System]

For those having problems with Vista, and unc paths showing up empty, I can confirm that: [global] host msdfs = no fixes the problem. This is on 3.0.24 with all patches. Note that I am not using Dfs root shares or the like. YMMV Hope this helps someone. Cheers! -- Richard Potter

Hello, I'm having an "Access denied" issue using roaming profiles for Windows Vista Ultimate RTM (patched to current). The actual login is successful, the full name is set properly and the password is handled correctly, however only a temporary profile is created. The interesting thing is that all else being the same, I do not encounter the same issue for Windows XP roaming

Hi All, I've got some performance issues with Samba and Vista that I just can't seem to figure out. Googling and fiddling has all been in vain up until now, so I'm not sure what I can do other than wait for Samba 4, but maybe someone here can find something I've missed. First off, the server is an Athlon 64 1.8GHz running Gentoo 2006.1, tested with both Samba 3.0.24 and
