Hi List: My setup: cups-1.3.5 nss_ldap-259 openldap-2.4.7 openslp-1.2.1 perl-5.10.0 samba-3.0.28 I have an application that is a Win32 app. We share the application on a Samba server. The application has 3 DLLs that it opens and uses code from. Originally we were running a 2.x version of Samba and all users had local accounts. Samba was not acting in a domain controller role. Users had

Looking for some help on this. (like everyone else). This appears to be a very well asked about problem and the advise is always the same... Check permissions here and there. My set up is: OpenSLP 1.2.1 OpenLDAP 2.4.7 Samba 3.0.28 nss_ldap CUPS 1.3.5 I've got everything working except the ability to add a "New Driver" from Windows XP Pro. Samba is running as a PDC / Domain

This is some very odd behavior with Samba, I think we have a bug... My set up is: Samba is running as a PDC / Domain Logins. OpenSLP 1.2.1 OpenLDAP 2.4.7 Samba 3.0.28 nss_ldap CUPS 1.3.5 Using the smbldap-useradd scripts that come with Samba! I don't download them from PADL.com Not using PAM modules. getent passwd & getent group work fine. I can no longer join workstations

Dear All, I'm thinking about connecting the 15 or so laptops in our organisation to LDAP. Now I'm trying to use nscd in order to enable the users to work when being offline. The test laptop is installed for this occasion, updated CentOs6.3. Following the advise I found on a few posts I modified */etc/nscd.conf : * server-user nscd logfile

The problem description below is relevant for those who use samba + LDAP. We installed four Intel Xeon servers with standard SuSE 8.2, samba + ldap. The W2K client complained about very, very, very slow reponse from the server. Below is we descripe the reasons and the solution. We have big problems with openldap version 2.1.12 (standard suse 8.2 rpm) and the name server cache daemon versiom

Hi there group, I have nscd running on 6.3 with backports patches, but maybe this will apply to the 7.0? What's the problem: i have nss setup with nss_pg module and authenticates passing through pam pg module. I have nscd running so I can make fewer queries to the pg server when system retrieves uid<->userid. But when I change the password in pg database, I can't get

Does anyone know if there is a fix for nscd segfaulting after a short period of time. Googling for it came up with one result that suggested deleting the files in /var/db/nscd , but that didn't help. Another result was about run away processes which is not the problem I'm having. They are x86_64 boxes. output from /var/log/messages Oct 9 12:56:38 lyra kernel: nscd[11660]: segfault at

I've had problems with nscd crashing every few days on my CentOS 4 mail server for a while now. The problems started maybe around CentOS 4.2, although I don't remember for sure. My debugging efforts let me to disable nscd's persistent cache, and that seemed to work for a while, but since upgrading to CentOS 4.4, the crashes have started again. When nscd crashes, the rest of the

Hi, I'd like to use nscd for passwd+group caching. pam_ldap is configured and works (e.g. 'id foo' returns the correct user id if foo is present in ldap). If I start nscd manually (not started by default), 'id foo' returns 'No such user'. As soon as I stop nscd, 'id foo' starts working again. I suspect nscd is only looking at /etc/passwd because 'id

Dear samba folks, I have a special question regarding the simultaneous operation of nscd and winbindd on the same host: We are running in a Samba file server setup where the nsswitch.conf looks like this: passwd: files ldap group: files ldap shadow: files ldap hosts: files dns wins networks: files protocols: db files services: db files

Again, another confusing issue in two how-to's I'm trying to resolve. In the SBE (samba-3 by example) Pg 161 in the PDF states. (It's actually page 200 of the PDF, but 161 of the numbered document pages.) "The name service caching daemon (nscd) is a primary cause of difficulties with name resolution, particularly where winbind is used." But the Authconfig in the IDEALX

Hi All, I just enabled nscd to see if I can speed up some operations on our large NFS/NIS environment, however, now that I've enabled nscd I am no longer able to sudo. Can someone please point me in the right direction? Everything was working fine prior to enabling it. -- James A.

Hi, This email is a follow-up to my previous email about "Postfix: user unknown", perhaps these are related. Every time I restart openldap i get an error message from nscd: --- May 15 14:53:02 mail nscd: nss_ldap: could not search LDAP server - Server is unavailable --- This is due to a timeout, correct? Here is part of my /etc/ldap.conf --- timelimit 120

Has anyone had problems accessing random websites since going up to 6.4? Since about the day after I got partly upgraded, if I try to access nytimes.com, or orbitz.com, I get server not found. With a lot of work, I, my manager, and the other admin, found that setting options edns0 in /etc/resolv.conf fixed it - I suspect that the network folks updated their internal nameservers (which are M$)

Hi, I'm using Samba 3 as a PDC with an Openldap backend and also have a number of Samba domain member servers that lookup the ldap directory for their account information. I use ssh to perform various administration tasks. There is an account called Administrator in the LDAP directory that has a UID of 0 . However, after nscd has been started, the next time i login to one of the member

Hi We have installed and configured Samba 2.2.8 on a Solaris (Sparc) 8 server recently. This server is to replace an existing member server in a NT4 domain and will act as a file server. We want to perform as little user maintenance on the Solaris side as possible so that most of the user setup and maintenance for the domain is controlled through a NT4 server using usrmgr and want to use NT
