I have a strange problem and I'm hoping that somebody on the list recognizes what it is. I am running Samba 3.0.23d on a Linux box with 2.6.20.15 kernel. I am connecting from 5 or 6 Windows XP SP 2 boxes. A share on the Linux box exists called "Music" (Note the UPPER CASE "M"). The share is accessible to all users who have smbpasswords on the Linux box. Most Windows

hi, ive installed samba 3 on a debian 4, the samba server should act like a pdc. at the moment it work that user can login on my clients (all windows xp pro sp2), the homedrive is mapped corretly, the only thing that doesn't work, is that the serverbased profile is saved automatically on the server, so that the user can downlad the profile at login. here is my smb.conf: [global]

Im having a problem adding machines to a domain. All has been fine until today. This is the output when I try to add a machine (WinXP). It appears to be looking for a root user in my LDAP directory but isnt finding it (because there isnt a user 'root' there). User 'Administrator' exists. Must there be an instance of 'root' in Samba LDAP backends? I've ploughed through

Parameters are: Samba 2.2.7a PDC setup with LDAP includeing posix authentication for Linux. OK, the tutorial I've based my setup on is the Mandrake tutorial found at http://www.mandrakesecure.net/en/docs/ldap-auth.php Works great for autenticateing Linux from LDAP but it is really sparse on the Samba side of things. Esepcially when it comes to adding machine trust accounts. So anyway I

Running a samba server version 3.0.7 on a FreeBSD box Life has been fine with XP and so forth I added a new vista workstation to my small network Vista found my shares and I am able to access them with no jerking around with authentication types or such as I use appropriate pw and user name to log into the vista box.

Problem number one: ------------------- I'm running a few-hours-old CVS version of Samba 3.0 with LDAP as the authentication backend, and I'm having some problems trying to set up the LDAP accounts using "smbpasswd". I build the structure of the LDAP database by importing a couple of LDIF's, and then I import the following user account to create an administrative account

Please someone tell me I'm insane. Relevant parts of the config: passdb backend = ldapsam:ldap://ldap.byramhealthcare.com/ ldap admin dn = "cn=admin,dc=byramhealthcare,dc=com" #enable SSL after we get it working without first ldap ssl = off ldap user suffix = "ou=People,dc=byramhealthcare,dc=com" ldap machine suffix = "ou=People,dc=byramhealthcare,dc=com" $

Hi there, I'm the process of centralizing user authentication for a medium-sized network with a few Linux servers, some of them runnng samba. The idea is migrating all user definitions from both /etc/{passwd,shadow,groups} and samba tdb to a central LDAP directory. Most servers had the same set of users, but as each one was administered in isolation (no NIS not all samba servers were part of

Hello, I have installed / configured samba-ldap (compiled SAMBA_2_2 from CVS) Whe i try to change the password for the root user, there is no problem.

Failed to modify entry for user william. Failed to

I'm trying to get Samba on a Mac OS X box running as a PDC with an LDAP backend. I've read through all of the major walkthroughs I can find, and we've actually already got it running very nicely as a file server; people are currently authenticating against a different PDC and then mapping drives from the Samba box in question. However, I'd like it to be the PDC eventually, but

Greetings We just updated two RH9 servers to 3.0.14a-1 and are still seeing a lot of errors in the logs. They're not stopping us working but I would _really_ like to understand what is causing them. On the first server, in the logwatch, we get a whole swag of: samba: Unknown Entries: session opened for user janicer by (uid=0): 6 Time(s) session opened for user sonjap by

Hi, I've posted this question before, but i'm still scratching my head. I've got a samba 3 cvs server with an ldap backend.

Hello, I am in the process of migrating to passdb backend = ldapsam on debian unstable with the latest 3.0pre samba package. All users have a ldap sambaAccount object which was added by hand after using migrationtools from padl.com. Testing auth with smbclient works fine, however when using samba as a PDC from WinXP I can't log into the domain as I used to when "passdb backend =

Essentially, at this point my head is about to explode. I have been able to update the most recent samba-nds.schema from the LDAP CVS at samba.org. And I can add posixAccount users with the LDAPTools. But I cannot add anyone as a sambaAccount (./smbldap-useradd -a "username"). Each time, it adds the posixAccount portion to eDirectory, and then failes the sambaAccount add portion. Is

I use a openLDAP database for authentication on my Redhat 7.2 server. The domain is "HOME". I have had no problem adding trust accounts and authenticating against it. Today I had to change the name of my Win2K workstation from poseiden to poseiden1 for compatibility with a package I am testing. Once I changed it and put in a new trust account, I could not rejoin the domain. I gave up and
