similar to: Convert existing Samba DB to LDAP

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 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

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.

I'm trying to join an XP SP2 PC called testpc to a test environment. Its network settings are statically set. IP address is 10.8.3.209. I have a PDC called gomer.mdah.state.ms.us w/ samba 3.0.26a and IP address is 10.8.3.37. On test PC I right click on my computer, properties, computer name, change from workgroup WORKGROUP to domain ADAMSTEST. But I get the error: Note: This information

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

Hi i got two server webserver1 and webserver2 i want to rsync some data form webserver1 to webserver2 using a user called syncuser ( syncuser is added to the group apache : adduser -G apache syncuser ) here is my command : [root at web1 projects]# rsync -avzh /var/www/projects/beta-website1 syncuser at web2server:/var/www/projects syncuser at web2server password: building file list ... done

I very much appreciate the help thus far, but I think it has strayed a bit from the actual problem. The problem is that when I join a system to the samba domain it creates /some/ but not all of the required attributes for the computer account. The process then fails as samba looks in the wrong part of my directory server. I would strongly prefer to put the workstation accounts in their own tree

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 =

Dear Samba & Users. I have spent some time going over the documentation, however I still no not fully understand what the cause is. I am focusing on Samba 3 by Example chapter 5 & 6 specifically Chapter 5 smbpasswd -w 123456 [root@node1 data]# smbpasswd -w 123456 Setting stored password for "cn=Manager,dc=ddesign,dc=com" in secrets.tdb Chapter 6 indicates in the smb.conf to

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.

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 am trying to create a Samba Admin account in FDS as per the final steps of http://directory.fedora.redhat.com/wiki/Howto:Samba I've asked about this on the FDS mailing list with no luck, I am hoping someone here will be able to help me. I've created a file with contents: Administrator:x:0:0:Samba Admin:/root:/bin/bash I then ran: /usr/share/openldap/migration/migrate_passwd.pl

Hi all, first of all is it possible to join a Linux machine to AD using a windows user account that is not a member of the group Domain Admins? Cause when I do this I get the following error while executing `net ads join -d 3 -U syncuser`: #net ads join -d 3 -U syncuser [2007/12/11 13:47:12, 3] param/loadparm.c:lp_load(4953) lp_load: refreshing parameters [2007/12/11 13:47:12, 3]

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]

I''ve installed the "acts_as_authenticated" plugin and made some modifications to the controller (app/controllers/account_controller.rb) "signup" module as follows: === def signup @page_title = ''Create Account'' @user = User.new(@params[:user]) if request.post? if @user.save session[:user] = User.authenticate(@user.login,

Hello Samba Users, Simo and I have put together a new document which includes the latest replication methods using Openldap. Instead of using the ageing slurpd for replication (which is no longer actively developed or supported); Openldap as of version 2.3 supports a new feature called delta-syncrepl. http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Replicated_Failover_Domain_Controller_and_fi

Well I am glad that there has been alot of input on this topic, alot of people are having different opinions but that is because we are not focusing with the problem at hand. The documentation provides full details on how to get samba + ldap working from scratch; but there seems to be a gap between chapter 5 & 6; Once again I will say I love this book; by far the best technical reference

Good morning, I?m looking at dovecot replication for the first time for a particular use case: The VM running dovecot is currently in a public cloud, and I want to move it on-premises, so I want to replicate all mail data from the older instance to the new (then cutover internal DNS) (and in the process update to newer features on the internal instance such as mdbox vs Maildir). However, the

I am having a problem getting users that were added in smbldap-useradd to be able to login. After I add them they are visible, but you can see I get this error - pdb_get_group_sid: Failed to find Unix account for test10 I believe that this has something to do with nss_ldap. because doing a getent passwd, it doesn't display any smb info. Any debugging info or help would be amazing, I'm
