I've set up my Samba PDC to act as a WINS server, because I need remote access to it (through a VPN connection). I put "wins support = Yes" into the smb.conf file. As far as I know, WINS doesn't use a unique port number, so enabling the usual NetBIOS ports (137/udp, 138/udp, 139/tcp) on the firewall should be enough to make WINS work. I did this already. I tried to connect to a

Dear list, I have two problems managing groups from Win2kSP2 client using UserManager for domains. My Linux user and groups are stored in OpenLDAP using pam_ldap+nss_ldap from Padl. Due to the fact that the groups using the ou=Group organizationalUnit, I have set in smb.conf the "ldap group suffix = ou=Group" (using ldapsam as passdb backend). So the Linux group and the

Hi, One weird thing (or maybe it is normal) : I have a Samba 3.5.6 on Debian Squeeze 64 bits acting as a PDC that is working perfectly fine. I have a share containing a directory with special acls on an ext3 partition mounted with 'acl,user_xattr' options. When I copy a file (or a directory) to that directory, default acls are correctly applied to the file. If instead I move the

This was my first post to the Samba list. It’s my intention to lend a hand to people, using my experiences as a launchpad, but sometimes a best practice is unbeknownst to me. For your suggestions, Rowland, I thank you. Your comments will help me improve my practice.

Hello, I've setup a samba PDC (3.0.31) and I am using Windows Vista clients. Logging on works fine using roaming profiles and folder redirections. I am also able to write to shares, etc. Now I am trying to get the advanced permissions on files to work. So on my share: [share] comment = Shared directories path = /samba/share read only = No guest ok = Yes With the following user rights

I''m looking for a way to conditionally add a user to a group, and can''t figure out a clean way to do it in Puppet. I have the following recipe: ###### BEGIN RECIPE class "apache-server" { group { "apache": gid => 100, } user { "apache": uid => 100, gid => 100, } ... } class "site-a"

When I attmept to mount a PC (W2K) share via my fstab, I get the following error message on the mount: "Unknown parameter encountered 'file'" Truth be told , samba is becoming more and more frustrating. The only thing I have been able to successfully do is to make visible my NFS mount point across my file server to my W2K machine. I am running SuSE 9.1, Samba 3.02a Enclosed is

Hi, I am trying samba4 alpha5 because I would like to use the feature of xattr for ACL. I followed the howto.txt comes with it exactly. I found that if I use user_xattr in /etc/fstab, I got "System cannot find the file specified" error very often (more than 50% of the time) when I try to create a file from a windows machine using share test (dir /data/test on samba server). If I

Hello, I am currently working on a solution to replace Apple OpenDirectory on some aging Xserve hardware. I currently have CentOS Samba4 AD DC?s replicating for redundancy using sernet-samba repositories. The third one has File/Print roles defind and it works perfectly EXCEPT on OSX 10.6.

Hi all, I am trying hard to get a Ubuntu server up and running with Samba 4 installed so it can function as an? Activie Directory server in windows network. I installed 12.04 on a reasonable box and this went well.

Regarding the insertion of "user_xattr,acl,barrier=1" in to /etc/fstab file. The Sambawiki page 'https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/OS_Requirements' has instructions there for ext4 to include this. I seen it commented here, in the mailing list, many time that this is now default for ext4. Maybe the wiki page should be changed? (Just a suggestion, you guys always give great

Greetings, I have recently upgraded from 3.0.28a to 3.0.30 on a couple of FreeBSD 7.0 servers: one in a Windows 2000 Active Directory environment, and the other in a Windows 2003 Active Directory environment, as member servers. Everything works for a while and then winbindd goes into sulking mode. Re-starting fixes everythng for a little while. I'm guessing I've hit the winbindd bug

I am trying, but failing, to migrate an openSUSE Samba server from Samba 3.4.3 on openSUSE 11.2 (old) to Samba 3.5.7 on openSUSE 11.4 (new).

First things first. Thanks to all samba developers and this great community.

Due to a hard drive failure I ended up with a messed up db and a lot of problems, almost all of them including frequent panics in the
