similar to: add|delete user / group / machine ... scripts, is the "API" somewhere documented?

Hi List, I have some issues with user manager for domains (srvtools.exe from MS) and the scripts mentioned in the subject. The examples from the samba howto collection seem to cause serious issues here. I am on debian etch and tried to create my own scripts but till now to now avail. With the examples from the docs I could add groups, but could not add users to groups. There was the option -A

Hi All, I have just joined this list, and this is my first post - so please bear with me. I am running debian testing (sarge) with a 2.4.23-1-686 kernel, and a self compiled samba-3.0.0final (--with-quotas), deployed from self built *.debs. It is running as a PDC (smb.conf at bottom of post), and I have successfully mapped "Domain Users" to unixgroup users, "Domain Admins"

I'm having problems adding users with usrmgr. I can run the scripts from my smb.conf fine from command line and do what I need to. But, when adding users with usrmgr, the login script and path statements are not identified and I have to go in and edit them manually. Does adding a user with usrmgr not use the add user script from Samba? Or must the user environment variables be added

Hello everybody! New to Samba (and the list) I am trying to set up a Samba PDC for a small enterprise network on a Debian Woody (3.0) system with a vanilla 2.4.24 kernel and the Debian package of Samba 3.0.1 and Swat (Debian Versions 3.0.1-2). I ran into various problems and could solve most of them during the past two weeks (hooray!). Most of the problems were related to congestions of user

The setup is: Samba 3.0beta3 running on a Debian Woody box (with a few tools backported from testing) with an LDAP backend (OpenLDAP 2.1) Samba is setup: * with posix file attributes (see

Does anyone know what the unix UID is deleting a user in USRMGR? I'm using Samba with ldap and while I can create users just fine with usrmgr (logged in as myself, but when I delete a user, it seems to have trouble running my "delete user script" My samba log shows: [2005/09/15 10:19:42, 1] lib/smbldap.c:another_ldap_try(1011) Connection to LDAP server failed for the 15 try!

I have a Samba 3.0.4 server configured as a PDC. NetBIOS name of the server is "SERVER"; name of the workgroup is "AEC". Problem is that there's now a phantom workgroup called "SERVER" when I try to browse the network. Since there's no clients configured in this workgroup, any attempts to browse this workgroup fail. When I attempt to use User Manager for

I've got a Samba 3.0.4 server running on RedHat 8.0 as a PDC. It's the only domain controller on the network, and the only WINS server on the network. The problem is, when I browse the network neighborhood, I see the NetBIOS name of the server ("SERVER") appear as a workgroup/domain (though there are no hosts listed in this phantom domain). It also appears as a computer under

I'm using Samba 3.0.22 on Ubuntu 6.06.1 as PDC for our Windows workstations. The passdb backend is tdbsam. I want to employ roaming profiles and due to the fact that we have a mixed Windows environment (Windows 2000 Pro and Windows XP Pro) I have the following entry in my smb.conf: logon path = \\%L\profiles\%U\%a Basically, this works fine. If a user is working on a W2k workstation, his

Samba 3.0.23d, on Debian Sarge - using the samba.org packages smbldap-tools 0.9.2 Greetings all, I am trying to set up a new PDC using LDAP, etc. Adding/deleting/modifying users in LDAP works fine using phpldapadmin. These users also work just fine logging in/out. I am trying to get the usrmgr tool to also work, so im working on the scripts on the server. I am getting this error however when

Hello, I am trying to find and easy way for end users to add Samba accounts to a Linux server. Some of my end users are schoot teachers, and they have to add tens of students to their Samba servers. I have a running Linux with Samba, configured upon the directions of Samba-3 by example, chapter 3, "Secure Office Networking", this is Samba with tdbsam, not LDAP. I can create accounts

How do I establish both a user's primary NTgroup and Unixgroup when creating a new user? Depending on the tool, I can set his NTgroup or his Unix group, but I don't seem to be able to establish both with one tool. I'm having a little difficulty with creating users with the proper groups. My login scripts are based on the user's primary group. When I create a new user with

Hello, OS: FreeBSD 6.1 Samba: 3.0.23c What kind of exit code do the "delete user script" need, to prevent Samba from deleting a user in tdbsam database? I'm testing Windows "User Manager for Domain" (usrmgr.exe) and I'm trying to convince Samba to NOT delete special users like "administrator" etc. Whenever I delete such a user within User Manager for

Hello, I'm currently trying to implement samba 3.0.14a as PDC in our office. I've allready managed to join the first trial workstations to the Domain. Now I have the following problem: I've created an Administrator-account for joining the machines and doing maintenance work. This account seems to have no problem to store its personal settings (Desktop, startmenu) on the PDC.

Hi, I'm using samba 3.0.2 PDC with LDAP backend. I'd like to be able to manage user accounts by Microsoft's usrmgr tool (from srvtools package). In my smb.conf are configured functional IDEALX scripts. Additionally I added debug output to start of all scripts which prints current time and parameters of script. When I use usrmgr.exe for creating a new user account I get strange error

passdb appears a lot of times in smba logs, even if it uses LDAP as a backend, as in my config. Maybe the log message should be changed in the code for something easier to debug... But this error message you said, only appears if you try to add or delete the user twice from LDAP, so you should remove "-a" from the add user script and comment out the user delete script if you intend to
