similar to: Member server - group and user mapping with winbind

I now have one PDC (Samba 3.026a on Solaris 10) and several member servers (including Samba 3.026a on Solaris 9 and 10, and Samba 3.024 on Fedora core 6.) Each machine uses NIS for unix accounts. If I start smbd and nmbd on a member server, I can connect to a share from a windows 2000 or XP client. If I look at the permissions on a folder, if shows "Unix Account/someuser" or

I have posted on this subject before but am still running into problems. The main question is whether I need to use Windbind in a single samba domain when each samba server also uses NIS for centralized unix level authentication. And if, in fact, I need windbind do I need it on all the samba servers? And do I need a central IDMAP respositoryor other mechanism to maintain consident SIDs? My

>From what I can tell it does look as if I have to run winbindd on member servers, even if NIS is used, to get SID's mapping consistently across the domain. The PDC is Samba 3.025a on Solaris 10. Two member servers are Samba 3.025a on solaris 9. If i start winbindd on a memv, the "wbinfo -u" and "wbinfo -g" commands show my users and groups. However, the

Hello, I am not sure if this is a bug or a feature... When I use scp to copy a file to a filesystem which forces or masks permissions on new files (in my case a samba share) the resulting permissions depend on whether the owner had write access in the original permissions. If the owner did have write access then the copied file ends up with the permissions specified by the filesystem. If the

Folks-- I'm working with an old system I set up to copy files from one local directory to another. I was using rdist for this, but I would prefer to shift it over to rsync. The one thing I'm missing is the trivial ability to force the group owernship of the destination files to a specific group. A read through the manpage and various searches on the web do not turn up any helpful hints

Hi, I've a question about the syntax of the valid users option. Any help is greatly appreciated! Here is the Background: samba 3.0.4 Linux as Domain Member Active Directory, not in Native Mode Compiler opions: --with-winbind --with-pam --with-smbmount The goal is to authenticate via the Windows Domain and allow access via Windows groups. The syntax in my smb.conf looks like this:

Hi All, I have samba 3.0.23 running on Ubuntu and have a problem with ID maps. When viewing file permissions on the PDC (Samba 3.0.20/Redhat EL4) Win XP resolves the SID/RID to NT user and group names. With the Ubuntu mamber server however, it shows only the SID. I checked that the user and group idmaps in Samba's Winbind setting were matching ranges and even deleted the contents of

As an addendum to my original message (copied below), I have tried a couple of things and have found the following: Running a one line login script, eg net use * \\server\share with an echo command produces the following output: The syntax is incorrect. For help, type NET USE /? at the command prompt. Yet running the same script one the machine as soon after login as possible results in he

Hi, We're seeing some TLS LDAP related issues in our Samba 4 PDC.

Hi there. I'm having a problem letting a Samba server (MYSAMBA) authenticate users (using "security = domain" and a "password server = MYPDC") against a Windows 2000 PDC (MYPDC). The Windows 2000 machine seems (I'm not 100% sure about this) to be configured to restrict anonymous and it seems to me that this is where the problem lies but don't know what to do. I

Hi, We're running samba 3.0.25a as a PDC on FreeBSD 6.1 in our office and few weeks ago, our samba PDC (and soon all the service hosted on this server) stop responding suddenly :-/ Everything went back to normal as soon as we disconnected from the network, all the hosts that were in the same room as the 10.0.0.20 host (after asking the domain user connected at that moment to this host, do

hi, since I upgraded some winxp-pro sp2 client to sp3, my samba-shared printers are no-longer usable :-/ With sp3, if I run notepad and choose the men? File-Print, the "print" window hangs and does not show any printer for about 1 minute! The same thing happens when I click on the men? Start-settings-Printer and faxes. With sp2, everything works correctly and I can browse all my

Short version: Why does my domain member server create a sambaDomainName entry in LDAP? Long Version: I have created a Domain Member Server for a "NT4 style" Samba domain with an LDAP backend. It is a print server, running Winbind (because it solved a group SID mapping problem and an 'invalid SID' error in syslog), and it works fine in all other respects, but this: After

When logs (e.g. /var/log/maillog) are rotated (e.g. to /var/log/maillog-YYYYMDD) is there a way via systemd or whatever to assign read permission to a specific group? Right now, for example - ls -l maillog* -rw------- 1 root root 3105240 Mar 13 22:04 maillog -rw------- 1 root root 1079031 Feb 24 04:39 maillog-20190224 -rw------- 1 root root 7237640 Mar 1 12:59 maillog-20190228 -rw------- 1

Hi everybody, apart from the clients in our Samba [1] server's subnet, we would like to allow access from some selected outside machines as well. Those people enter our network via VPN and are associated IPs that look like the ones below: vpn-82-51.test.de --> 173.237.82.51 vpn-84-13.test.de --> 173.237.84.13 Those users receive a new IP address every

Hi. I had been reading about how to join a samba server to my current PDC running samba+ldap. My PDC have a BDC and they are working, I want to add another samba server and be a domain member server. The docs off samba had open my mind about the technical stuff but I still cannot make this thing works. My OS is Centos 5.6 PDC Samba Version 3.5.4-0.83.el5_7.2 My domain member is centos

I have 10 XP clients authenticating against a Samba PDC, using passwd as the passdb backend. The Samba PDC provides several shares to the XP clients. Priviledges on the Samba PDC are controlled by *nix user and group permissions. I do not have any Windows servers on my network, so we do not use any of the Windows group capabilities beyond the default groups. My Samba PDC is running out of room,
