similar to: smbpasswd database is corrupt!

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

I have a server roark (fedora core 5 with samba 3.0.23a-1.fc4.1) with a home directory awilliam. I'm trying to mount it on my linux workstation (fedora core 5, samba 3.0.23a-1.fc5.1). On my workstation I do: mount -t cifs "//roark/awilliam" /mnt/roark-awilliam/ -o username=awilliam,password=xxxxxx and when I cd to /mnt/roark-awilliam, ls works, but if I cat a file I get the

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]

Using Seamonkey as my email client, and IMAP to check mail. If I create a new IMAP folder, and then delete it, I get the error: The current command did not succeed. The mail server responded: Target mailbox doesn't allow inferior mailboxes. Tried a google search, didn't really come up with anything. I have rw permissions on /home/awilliam/Mail/* and delete the files fine using rm

My Windows XP SP3 clients aren't loading their logged_in_username.bat from my netlogon share, and I can't figure out why. It looks like in the log file the Windows PCs are loading the script, its just not executing it on the windows PCs for some reason, but if I click start, run, and type in \\roark\netlogon\scripts\jholland.bat it runs fine. Running samba 3.0.31 and here's the

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.

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

Hi, when using pdbedit -L <user> we get an error > build_sam_account: smbpasswd database is corrupt! username <user> with uid <uid> is not in unix passwd database! > Username not found! This is because a user is not - as it says - in e.g. /etc/passwd. Does this affect the functionality of group mappings in the way that this doesn't work with the mapped unixgroup

Hello all, We have just concluded a very drawn out test of our domain that is having some trust relationship problems with Windows 7 desktops. Here is a breakdown of our setup: roark PDC running samba 3.4.7 (also has OpenLDAP) on VLAN 2 archives3 BDC running samba 3.4.7 (also has OpenLDAP) on VLAN2 arrowhead BDC "home server" running samba 3.4.3 on VLAN 9 archives4 BDC

Hi, i have already search for three days now but i can't find any tips. I am running a Samba PDC based on smb 3.0.23. No i want to integrate a second samba server which should serve serveral client, just to decrease the load on the pdc. This should not be a BDC, just a domain member. For user management i use openLDAP. Well, what do i need for this scenario? Do I need winbind or can i just

Hi, I installed a SaMBa PDC and a BDC. When I log in to an XP client with a new user, sometimes I get the initial profile settings from the netlogon share, but often from local. When I get the local default settings, it is not syncronized to the server at logout. Even if I get the new profile from the server, on the same client, next time, with a new user, I get the new profile from local. I

Hi all, Looking for a solution to the following:- # smbpasswd -x jh--- build_sam_account: smbpasswd database is corrupt! username jh--- with uid 1774 is not in unix passwd database!

I had previously tried to migrate our PDC to a new machine by simply copying the config over and such. That failed miserably but luckily the various home servers (BDC's in samba speak I think) took up the slack. So after much debate, this weekend we moved the PDC back to the original machine. We never moved LDAP off of the original machine, as only samba functions moved. I now know I did

Hello List, i am trying to understand the LDAP-backend i just set up. Maybe someone can help me a little understanding the whole magic. In smb.conf i have my smbldap-tools scripts: # use the smbldap-tools scripts add user script = /usr/sbin//smbldap-useradd -m "%u" delete user script = /usr/sbin//smbldap-userdel "%u" add machine script = /usr/sbin//smbldap-useradd -w

OS = RHEL 5 samba version 3.0.33-3.29 openldap 2.3 is it possible to have linux users stored in an ldap directory and still use the passdb backend = smbpasswd. I have an existing smbpasswd password db and an existing set of linux users I have migrated the linux users to LDAP and authenticating successfully until I have time to get all samba credentials migrated to ldap i still need use the

Hello, I did the steps described below and I have a problem with machine RIDs. When I first join a machine, samba adds to my sambaDomainName ldap entry a sambaNextRid attribute with a value of 1000. Now samba uses this value (incremented each time) to give its RID to the machine. This is going to be a real problem as my current samba computes RDIs as 1000+2*UID. FWIW I'm using

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.

Hi Is it possible to use single LDAP server and multiple samba servers? The problem I'm having now is Each server thinks their host name is their LDAP domain name, or sambaDomainName, and complain the user's SID is different so can't authenticate. How do I make samba servers use one domain name and SID? LDAP domain name is DOMSMB dn: sambaDomainName=DOMSMB,dc=my-domain,dc=com

Hi, I wanted to migrate my sambapasswd file to a ldap test system and noticed, that I do get errors: build_sam_account: smbpasswd database is corrupt ... username with uid ... is not in unix passwd database! Importing/changing LDAP accounts fail after the last useraccount entry in my sambapasswd file. Is there a way to remove all accounts which are in the sambapasswdfile but not in my
