Hi, I need to write a (Perl) script that will access the LDAP server that is bunddled in Samba 4. What DN should I use to authenticate? Best regards, Olivier --

Hi all, I have a Centos 6 box running samba-3.6.9 and I have a problem with files turning to 0 bytes after being edited and saved. One of the users reported that he changed the name of two files and both ended up sized 0 bytes and opening them revealed them to be empty. Has anyone had a similar problem? I've been looking for 3 days and there's obvious pattern to the events

Hi all, Just a quick question about login scripts for a large number of users who change rooms a lot. I have several rooms each with a printer, and nearly a thousand users divided into two main groups - pupils and teachers who change rooms on a routine basis. Is it possible to set up multiple login scripts that would be executed in sequence i.e. run by user is %u, and machine is %m is it

Hi All, I'm setting up a Samba AD domain which works perfectly with the WIn 7 server tools and so far everything is going fine. What has me stumped is setting up an LDAP proxy in our DMZ against which I can authenticate our email and web services. I've got port 389 open on my main Samba 4 DC and if I use the domain administrator account to bind the proxy, everything works. In order

Hi List, Looking for assistance with a squid authentication problem against Samba 4. The squid proxy we're using worked fine on our old Samba 3 domain with 500+ users but keeps freezing on our new Samba 4 domain. I've joined the proxy using net ads join and the samba 4 network is a clean build as we wanted to leave any baggage from the old one behind. What we now have is a situation

Hi all, I am looking at setting up a multi-site office and need to put a plan forward. The site consists of one head office and several branch office and my plan so far is this: In head office, one Samba PDC. Each branch office will have a local BDC that also stores files local to the branch, hopefully cutting down the day to day traffic across the VPN. The VPN I plan to use is OpenVPN in

Hi All, I currently have another thread open on squid authentication with Samba 4 and am going to try authenticating against kerberos instead of NTLM. According to the docs for the web filter I'm using, it's essential for Kerberos to be able to resolve reverse DNS so I've spent the last weekend trying to get this working. Various different documents and howtos exist but none of

Hi all, I need help to clear a bit of confusion regarding SIDs on Samba servers. I had my PDC collapse on Thursday which wasn't too much of a problem as I had everything backed up but I'm now in the position that I have a mismatched Domain SID. If I run net getlocalsid I get the sid for the server (called smb0) and net get local sid <domain> returns the sid for the Domain. I

Hi all, I have a problem with adding point and print to a print server. The server details are as follows: 700MHz Celeron + 384MB RAM Mandriva LE2005 (Mandrake 10.2) Samba 3.0.13-2mdk CUPS 1.1.23 cups drivers 10.2-0.11 gimpprint-cups 2-1.1.23-11 foomatic 3.0.2-1 The server is bound to an NT4 based domain (to be replaced with Linux/Samba in the summer) and winbind works fine with wbinfo -u and

Hi All, I am hoping to set up machine based logins on our Samba server (3.0.21c/RedHat EL4). I have the following lines in the global section to my smb.conf: [global] add group script = /usr/sbin/groupadd %g delete group script = /usr/sbin/groupdel %g add user to group script = /usr/sbin/usermod -G %g %u passdb backend = tdbsam:/etc/samba/passdb.tdb add

Hi all, I'm currently migrating from tdbsam to LDAP and want to restructure my setup at the same time. I can get the SIDs for the user and machine accounts using pdbedit -Lv | grep SID but I have 800 users so I don't want to reset their passwords. So far, I've dumped the contents of the tdbsam database into an smbpasswd backup file and am running john-the-ripper across it.

Hi All, I'm trying to run a school CAD app called Prodesktop in wine 0.9.46 and have a problem with the detection of colour depth. X is set to run at 1024x768 which is fine as far as the app goes and the colour depth is set to 24 bit. When the app runs, it complains that it requires 16 bit colour, or greater and then shuts down. Is this a problem anyone else has run into possibly with a

Hi all, I have a Samba PDC with an LDAP backend. Yesterday, I tried to add a new machine to the network and received the following message: The following error occurred attempting to join the domain: The password of this user has expired Not a problem I thought, and then ran smbldap-usermod -e "2010-12-30 00:00:00" root to extend the password date. If I now try to connect a

Hi All, I have a tdbsam backend on Samba PDC and am trying to set a user up as a domain admin. I read that instead of the old admin users line in smb.conf you now use net groupmap to map unix groups to NT groups. I have a user called toni in unix group admins and have run: net groupmap add rid=512 ntgroup="Domain Admins" unixgroup=admins running: net groupmap list gives: Domain

Hi all, Excuse ignorance but I've mainly used Samba DCs in the past and just want to check this before I do something stupid. I have a server 2012R2 domain controller but the functional level is set to server 2008r2. Does this mean that it's running a schema consistent with 2008R2 and that I could hook Samba 4 up to as an RODC or would it still break? Thanks in advance, Julian PB

Hi all, I have a question regarding the seperation of domain and local permissions. I have a Samba PDC and BDC setup with three member servers authenticating from them. I've set all the boxes up to use nss_ldap for the Posix side so that all the groupmapping between domain and unix groups across the servers is consistent. All seems to be fine but I can't find any info about setting

Hi all, I'm trying to add printers with cupsaddsmb on Samba 3.0.20 (Mandrake Linux) with an LDAP backend. I've followed the howto on the samba page and have the error: result was WERR_INVALID_PRINTER_NAME generated when I run it. So far I've Googled for the solution but nothing listed has helped. The full set of errors are as follows: Cupsaddsmb returns:

ALCON I'm trying to figure out how to rename groups in a data frame after groups by selected variabels. I am using the dplyr library to group my data by 3 variables as follows # group by lat (StoreX)/long (StoreY) priceStore <- LapTopSales[,c(4,5,15,16)] priceStore <- priceStore[complete.cases(priceStore), ] # keep only non NA records priceStore_Grps <- priceStore %>%

Ok folks, here goes: We have an old NT4 machine that we wish to replace as the PDC on our network. In it's place, we've got a dual xeon box with Mandrake LE2005 and Samba 3.0.13-2 and I'm currently trying to draw the accounts over with vampire. I'm using tdbsam as a backend. I've been through several readme's and howto's and have created all the UNIX accounts,

Hello, See if this is it: priceStore_Grps$StoreID <- paste("Store", seq_len(nrow(priceStore_Grps)), sep = "_") Hope this helps, Rui Barradas On 5/26/2018 2:03 PM, Jeff Reichman wrote: > ALCON > > > > I'm trying to figure out how to rename groups in a data frame after groups > by selected variabels.
