I have a domain named ADAMSTEST with the LDAP/PDC being gomer.mdah.state.ms.us ip 10.8.3.37 and the BDC bldg2.mdah.state.ms.us ip 10.8.7.2. nss_ldap is working, i can ssh in to both servers fine. I'm trying to have a Windows XP named domain2 with ip 10.8.7.254 join the domain using the WINS server of 10.8.7.2 in the network tcp/ip settings. So it should be able to join the domain by

I have a PDC named GOMER with IP 10.8.3.37 and a BDC named BLDG1 with IP 10.8.3.231, both in the domain ADAMSTEST. I have a user testuser who logged in successfully to GOMER and has a roaming profile in /var/lib/samba/profiles/testuser. So I changed the TCP/IP settings of the windows XP computer testuser uses from the WINS server of 10.8.3.37 to 10.8.3.231 so it would use BLDG1 for

I'm playing around with samba + LDAP in a test environment. In LDAP root doesn't have a SambaSID:, but root does have a User SID: in pdbedit. Do I need to set the SambaSID in LDAP for the user root, or does it not matter? If so, how? I tried smbpasswd -a, smbldap-useradd, and smbldap-passwd -a and none worked. But I can load the SambaSID in by hand with ldapmodify if I need to.

Windows XP w/ SP2 is giving me that error message when I'm trying to log into my domain: A device attached to the system is not functioning. error log: [2007/11/09 10:21:01, 1] rpc_server/srv_netlog_nt.c:_net_sam_logon_internal(1004) _net_sam_logon: user TEST\testuser has user sid S-1-1-0 but group sid S-1-5-21-3536689092-529281149-710501220-513.

On my server, I have root in LDAP, and am following the Samba3 by example book, but I'm unable to get it to join the domain. I'm running samba 3.0.25b. [root@gomer samba]# net rpc join -U root%xxxxxxxx Unable to find a suitable server [root@gomer samba]# net rpc testjoin -S GOMER -U root%tical123 Join to 'ADMIN' is OK [root@gomer samba]# net rpc

I'm following along in the Samba 3 By Example.pdf and on Page 190 it has me run: [root@gomer ~]# smbldap-useradd -m -a test2 No such object at /usr/sbin//smbldap_tools.pm line 473. I am running smbldap_tools .0.9.4 and I have ran configure.pm and set it up correctly. The stanza in the code of line 473: # all entries = does_sid_exist($sid,$config{scope}) sub does_sid_exist { my $sid =

I have a PDC named gomer w/ IP 10.8.3.37 and a BDC named bldg1 w/ IP of 10.8.3.231, and a testpc w/ IP of 10.8.3.237. in the TCP/IP settings of testpc, I put the WINS server as 10.8.3.231, but when I log in, the roaming profile is stored onto gomer. Is this correct behavior? I then changed bldg1's logon path from logon path = \\%L\profiles\%U to logon path = \\bldg1\profiles\%U and

I have a PDC named GOMER w/ IP of 10.8.3.37 and a BDC named BLDG2 w/ ip of 10.8.7.2. when someone on the 10.8.7.x network using the WINS server of 10.8.7.2 logs in and out, their roaming profile is stored on the PDC. is there any way to have the roaming profile stored on the BDC?, because I will have other 10.8.x.x networks and some of these remote sites will be using DSL and I don't

We currently have an OpenLDAP server with many nodes authenticating to it for various things. We have an existing server that is now using LDAP to authenticate, but would like to have Samba in turn authenticate to it. We've configured the smb.conf file accordingly and can get this working. Our dilemma is in adding the "Manage samba account parameters" plug-in via the Yast

I'm currently going through chapter 5 of Samba-3 by Example, "Making Users Happy" Step 16 is where I get a hiccup. When I execute the command "pdbedit -Lv" which according to the man page should list out all my users, I get nothing back. All the previous steps have worked using one of my existing LDAP account uids. There seem to be extra things I need to have in my

I've spent the last several days trying to get Samba to bind to our OpenDirectory server for user authentication with no success. Whenever I try start Samba, it complains that the connection to the LDAP server failed with invalid credentials. I am authenticating other services against the LDAP server through NSS, so I am a bit at a loss as to why Samba won't run. I'm also a bit at a

We recently migrated our install from an ancient fedora 11 install of samba and openldap to a centos 6.3 setup with its openldap and samba. The domain has been totally recreated from scratch as the person that did the previous setup has not been employed here in many years. After fighting with shares for a while we mostly got them fixed and working. However the biggest issue now is when our GIS

Hi, I recently installed samba (3.0.28) on a linux box as a PDC. The networks has about 20 windows xp professional and a few Linux (all Fedora 8). Basically the server works OK but I have run into a few problems: Initially windows roaming profile was not configured. At that time, sometimes when a user tries to log on a windows machines, it would say "server not found" and the user

Hello, I have discovered what seems to me an unlogic issue in Samba. I have a Samba logon server with login scripts based on machine names (%m.bat). This is what happens when I make a connection as a regular user.

Hi, I have working master & slave OpenLDAP servers the Samba PDC works correctly when using either as the passdb backend.

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]
