Hi, I've got a Samba 3.0.2a PDC running for some time now (like more than a year) with MS Windows XP clients. But suddenly on January 23 2006 none of the clients where able to login anymore. The error on the client was (translated from dutch): Unable to connect to domain server. The logfile on the samba side showed: [2006/01/23 11:36:30, 2] lib/smbldap.c:smbldap_open_connection(722)

Hi, I have migrate from samba 3.0.20b to 3.0.21. I restored the backup of all .tdb and when starting samba and a Windows XP tries to connect, I get this error: [2005/12/28 09:19:04, 0] libsmb/credentials.c:creds_server_check(159) creds_server_check: credentials check failed.

Hi, I migrated from samba 3.0.20b PDC to 3.0.21x using the rpm -Uvh and now I get these errors: [2006/01/04 19:48:08, 0] libsmb/credentials.c:creds_server_check(159) creds_server_check: credentials check failed.

A few computers -- two or three -- are very spotty about letting people log on. It seems -- and this could be off-base -- that they'll let anyone log on once, but will require a reboot before you can log on again. Sometimes, logging on works fine, though. There really appears to be little rhyme or reason to what happens. In the Samba logs, I'm getting: [2006/10/20 08:08:14, 0]

I'm getting some strange entries in my logs after upgrading to samba version 3.0.21-1. Also in 3.0.21a-1. The machines connection to my samba pdc are WinXP SP2 and also a 2003 server. For example: [2006/01/03 21:57:28, 0] libsmb/credentials.c:creds_server_check(159) creds_server_check: credentials check failed. [2006/01/03 21:57:28, 0] rpc_server/srv_netlog_nt.c:_net_sam_logon(667)

Hey all, After setting up a migration server (a server which will act as a test for a Samba 3.x environment), so we can make sure our migration from Samba 2.2.x to 3.x goes as smoothly as possible, I've hit upon a problem, now I am not sure whether this is the fault of Samba (my configuration) or NT4 or whether this is infact designed behaviour for both/either servers. I'd like to

Hi All, I have running a PDC with samba and with my WinXp clients I have no problem but when I try to join the Domain with a Win7 I get the next error: [2011/09/15 14:15:58, 0] rpc_server/srv_netlog_nt.c:_net_auth_2(478) _net_auth2: creds_server_check failed.

Hello List, I am in the final throws of migrating our ldap servers. I have been running samba as a pdc and using the ldap as the backend for over a year, and all is well. I was testing the samba pdc against the new ldap servers and got the following errors in the log file for the machine attempting to connect: net_auth2: creds_server_check failed and the machine (xp) will not successfully

This has come up before. Anyone want to comment (other than an OS specific #ifdef)?

Hello Everybody, I have samba 2.2.8a instaled on a RedHat 7.3 Gnu/Linux. I'm trying to setup a Samba as a PDC Server for Win2K/XP/98 workstations. The basic stuff did very well, everybody can join and access the domain. But now I want the shares by departments and give only access to the correct users. I tried to setup a group policy between my users and shares doing the

Hi !!! I've had configured a samba 3.0.21c PDC on a SuSE 9.3 with the RPM I've downloaded from http://www.samba.org. My PDC uses LDAP as backend. I have a Windows 98 client and a Windows XP Professional SP2 client. The windows 98 client lets all the users log in happily and everything works as expected, the Windows XP has a very weird an annoyuing behaviour. After booting both the

We had a power failure in our small test lab and the samba server crashed after the UPS shutdown procedure didn't work quite like it was supposed to. Upon reboot, the services started fine but none of our 3 XP test machines were able to login to the Samba PDC. The Samba logs showed the following... _net_auth2: creds_server_check failed. Rejecting auth request from client FLUENT02

I am using FreeBSD 6.2 with Samba 3.0.24. Samba is set up as PDC and using the tdbsam backend. I'm having a hell of a time logging in my first machine (say Windows machine BLAH). First I created my login user on the system side (pw) and the samba side (pdbedit). # pw useradd username # pdbedit -a -u username Then I create the machine system account: # pw useradd -g machines -c Machine -d

I have been running Samba at home as a fileserver for a long time and I have now been changing it to a PDC (later I want to try switching it to an AD server as a learning experience prior to doing the same on a server in work, which is already a PDC).I have got it to the point that it logs onto the user account but not the machine account. The local machine is called asus, the user account

Hi everyone, I'm trying to upgrade (migrate) from one linux distro (hostname blah) to another (hostname foobar) using the same server layout, domain and netbios name and smbpasswd password file. This is a PDC for a windows domain DOMAIN. The IP has remained the same as the hardware is being upgraded though I'm changing the hostname and linux distro. I have copied over the user accounts

Dear developers, I often use smbclient from NetBSD 1.5 (i386) to an NT4.6a box. When I leave recursion off and do an 'mput', the find fails because NetBSD's find does not have the '-maxdepth' option. The problem is in samba/source/client/client.c at line 1168. Here is the code that causes the problem with a temporary fix. > if (recurse) >

Hi everyone, I am trying to setup a PDC using Samba and OpenLDAP. For some reason, I've used both the examples provided in the Official Howto and also the smbldap-tools howto developed by IDEALX. I am able to get the directory up and running. I am able to get the following working: 1. LDAP Directory server and successful Queries through Samba 2. Add user and machine accounts. 3.

Hi, I'm in need of some help with moving a Samba PDC with LDAP backend from Fedora linux to RHEL. The DNS is also running on that server and needs to be moved also. The DNS and LDAP migration was simple enough. The new server works just fine when using it's own DNS and LDAP for authentication, and all the users appear to be intact after the LDAP import. nss_ldap is working just fine.
