There was an earlier thread about failing trust relationships between Windows 7 and Samba. Since we occasionally experience the same problem with Win 7 clients against a Samba 3.5.4 server, I investigated this a bit further. I think it happens when - the time to change the machine password has arrived - the Win 7 machine is up, but no one is logged on (login box is shown on the screen). To

hi , i have a few problems with usmgr on Version 3.2.4 ( Version 3.2.4-8.1-1931-SUSE-SL11.0 ) samba pdc ldap the download version from ms http://www.microsoft.com/Downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=c0011ab8-3178-4701-a791-eafba0f42de2&displaylang=en doesnt work giving "device attached to the system is not functioning" whatever i do a old version from usermgr works partially but magic

Hi, Since 3.2.4 (maybe earlier, but I doubt it), one important feature does not work anymore for me: I cannot break ACL inheritance anymore in the Windows ACL editor. With previous Samba versions, I entered the "Advanced" dialog of the Windows ACL editor and unchecked the flag "Inherit from parent the permission entries that apply to child objects. Include these with entries

Hi, I use rsync 3.0.4 on two opensuse 11 machines. Every night, a big tree of machine A is synced to machine B. These machines are samba PDC and BDC, users and groups are ldap-based, and ACLs are heavily used. There are about 2.8 million files and dirs, 2.2 terabytes of data, and a complete ACL list produced with getfacl has some 600 megabytes. I've just noticed that ACLs get partially

Hi, Is it possible to join a Windows 2016 or 2019 server as a member server to a Samba 4.10.6 based AD DC? I apologize if this question has been answered before. Thanks, Peter Rindfuss

Hi All, I have a Samba PDC on my Suse 9.3 machine serving up to 25 clients with a OpenLdap backend.The samba user password also *sync's with the LDAP Password and the Local User password*. All Samba users also have a local user account which is used by IMAP Server Accounts & Cyrus Authentication on the same machine. (So, One Password to email and samba for all users, if the

Hello, we successfully migrated from a Samba 3.x NT Domain to a Samba AD Domain using Samba 4.7.x. However, there are still some issues and I hope for your help. The biggest problem so far follows: For historical reasons our Samba file servers carry a lot of aliases. Now that they have become AD Members I did set a lot of CNAMEs in the AD DNS (using the Windows DNS Tool). Most of the aliases

Hi All, Is anybody succeed to run a configuration on a two node clusters with Samba installed on each machine? I compiled two versions on different directories (/usr/local/samba1 and samba2). At this point, I can run 2 samba's on one node in case of failure but problems are on Active Directory authentication for the Fallback node. Any suggestion! I'm running AIX 5.2 with HACMP and

Hi, When I use "samba-tool user syncpasswords" in Samba 4.10.11 (and earlier version of 4.10), I get a python exception coming from a place in /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/samba/netcmd/user.py I could fix it with this patch: diff user.py.orig user.py 2001c2001 < reply = sync_command_p.communicate(input)[0] --- > reply =

Hello I have a network setup with one Samba PDC and two Samba BDCs separated by routers (ref http://www.cybersource.com.au/users/mikef/samba/). In this test environment the Samba servers all use the master OpenLDAP server on the PDC, but the production system will have OpenLDAP servers (using master-slave replication) on all Samba servers. I can't get the Windows XP client to change a

I am remembering something wrong related to samba 4 and that there is no longer a need to have machine accounts and user accounts exist in /etc/passwd ? I want to set up a samba 4 domain controller as a bdc to a samba 3 domain. Have the domain data base replicate and then shut down the samba 3 pdc and promote the samba 4 to a pdc. It would be nice to ignore having to migrate /etc/passwd because I

Can somebody give me a quick education on sync'ing users, passwords and groups between 2 linux servers. Im using Redhat 7.1 as PDC and BDC using Samba. I want to sync mainly /etc/passwd, /etc/smbpasswd, /etc/group to get a consistancy going in the domain... please guide me sync'ing passwords between them ..BOTH WAYS.....if a user changes a password on one computer it gets changed on

Helo, On redhat 9 - samba 3 stable - Using the rpm from 24 september. I try to configure a bdc. Smb.conf is : idmap backend = ldap:ldap://ip_address ldap idmap suffix = ou=personnes,ou=ac-ville,ou=educ winbind uid = 10000-20000 winbind gid = 10000-20000 # allow enumeration of winbind users and groups winbind enum users = yes

Hi, I have Samba 3.0.22 running on a VM-hosted ubuntu 6.06, with the VM existing to host a Bugzilla server for our development team. I'd like to be able to periodically backup the MySQL database to a remote device on our domain. The PDC is Win2003 SBS (named simply "sbs"), & I have successfully got the "bugzilla" machine joined to the domain. The bugzilla computer

Hi, I have a question regarding permissions at the top of a share as seen from a Windows 10 client. We are using Samba 4.10.6-Debian (van Belle) on Debian 10 (Buster) with one AD controller and one file server. The top directory of our main share on the file server has, on the Linux level, these permissions reported by getfacl: # file: ... # owner: root # group: domain\040users # flags: ---

Hi all, I have just noticed the following situation: Our NT4-style domain users are often (not always) seen by Windows XP as members of Domain Users and Domain Guests and Domain Admins and Domain Computers although they are definitely only members of "Domain Users". This gives us a security problem as "Domain Admins" become local Administrators. They are no real

Hello! I want to create BDC with smbpasswd backend, just because I run ldap master on the same machine as PDC and I don't think that using ldap backend will be far better for me. Only thing I don't understand: I read in howto: <quote> Machine Accounts Keep Expiring This problem will occur when the passdb (SAM) files are copied from a central server but the local Backup

Hi Everybody, It seems that there is a bug in the implementation of the MS Windows API function NetSessionEnum. I am using Windows XP against a Samba 3.023d domain controller. When NetSessionEnum is successful it is supposed to return either NERR_Success (0) when it is finished or ERROR_MORE_DATA when there is more data outstanding. In my program which tries to retrieve all currently logged-on

Sorry for the long post - but this is a unique situation as the clients (iMacs) are controlled by our central school district IT dept. As the local tech guy at a high school I'm allowed some control - creativity, but not much. End goal: Setup a linux file server using samba to connect to tightly controlled macs in a school setting. I said tightly controlled because the district IT folks
