Hi all, Please help Ive been wasting days at this... I am not trying to create a PDC, I am not joining an active directory, I am not needing samba schema in my openldap (or do I?), I am not trying to use winbind and idmaps for translations from SID to UID/GID, I just want my samba server which shares linux home directories to authenticate user+password against my existing linux based openldap

Hi! I am running a RedHat Cluster with Samba shares that can failover to other nodes. On every node there is one Samba instance running permanently and acting as BDC (BDC instance) for my Samba domain, that binds to the physical network interfaces of the node. When starting a samba resource on a cluster node, I mount the corresponding file system from SAN on that node and start another

I've been trying to get this to work for a few days now. I read that domain requests are sent via broadcast, and to use WINS to get around it. Well, I've enabled the WINS server on my Samba PDC, and told the BDC's on each VPN segment that the PDC is a WINS server. WINS resolution works apparently, I can sit on a VPN'd network segment and ping machines across the VPN via their

Hi everybody. I?ve installed a new OpenLdap Server and performed the migration of the database. All information was imported sucessfull because all my other authentication services are working perfectly. I have a domain in my ldap server and a FreeBSD machine that work as domain PDC for a domain called POS. After the migration, I cannot perform any password change/add in the LDAP

Hi, I've got two linux machines with the same distribution and samba 3 that cross-mounts a share (i.e., machine a mounts a share of machine b and vice versa). I'm experiencing slow access from the machines to the opposite mounted share and I don't know what this slow performance can be due to. I'm not running with oplocks cause the share is accessed only by the other linux

This is on RHE4, I am getting an invalid DN error. Is there a good resource site for this type of configuration issue? There is a lot of info that comes up through google but I am having no luck finding anything relevant (or that seems relevant to me).

Hi, I've got a few samba server in my network, but one of them is "invisible". I cannot do a nmblookup on it (even from the server itself), but I cannot telnet the port 137, thus it should not be a problem of firewall. From windows xp machines, I can connect specifying the IP address, while from win98 machines I cannot (I got an error like network name does not exist). The

Hi all, my samba server has security set to user, and it works for each share I specify a valid users list. However, the following public share does not work: [PUB_SMB] comment = Cartella pubblica (Mac e PC) - Non viene fatto il backup path = /mnt/samba/pub_smb browsable = yes available = yes writable = yes

I am trying to get samba 3.0.4 to work as a PDC using LDAP with my old samba 2 schema. I used -with-ldapsam when building in the hope that that would be OK. I had a problem when it came to "net groupmap ..." because samba was trying to use the samba 3 schema attribute sambaSID. I got round this by setting passdb backend = smbpasswd ldapsam:ldap://<myldap> so it appears to

Hi, I'm trying to set up my samba server as PDC, but when I login from windows xp a notepad windows pops up showing: [.ShellClassInfo] LocalizedResourceName=@%SystemRoot%\system32\shell32.dll,-21787 while it works under consumer windows. Any idea about? Thanks, Luca -- Luca Ferrari, fluca1978@infinito.it

hello list, I habe to upgrade a SAMBA/LDAP installation from Ubuntu 8.04 to Ubuntu 10.4 (alpha2) because Windows 7 needs to be supported. I started by upgrading the BDC (OpenLDAP configured as consumer) to the new version, making sure that XP can join the domain and users can log in. As this was finished, I upgraded the PDC (holding smbldap-tools and OpenLDAP configured as producer). Both

Hi all, I'm running version 3.0.28a on Ubuntu linux, and apparently from a day to another I got performance issues: without any change in smb.conf (except a few added shares) I have mac osx and linux clients getting a very slow upload/download speed. I've checked with other protocols, like scp and performances are good, so I can exclude a network/hardware problem. Other clients are
