Heyho. My apologies if this mail arrives twice. The first time I sent it my email address didn't correspond to the one I signed onto the list with (one was an alias for the other). I'm not sure if the original will eventually make it through or not. I have a NT Domain which is run by my samba server (v3.0.22-r3 on Gentoo Linux). Everything works well, and the backend database is

Here's the situation: We have users who are members of groups and those groups are sometimes members of a 2nd level of groups. If a folder has permissions assigned to a 2nd level group, then the user can not access the share. Doing a "getent group | grep user | grep 2nd_level_group" also returns nothing. Samba seems to not be recognizing that a user is a member of a group under

Well, maybe it's not the "best" or the "most elegant" solution - I've never tried to tweak this -, but it works: - Insert the following lines on your PDC's smb.conf: winbind enum groups = yes winbind enum users = yes winbind trusted domains only = yes winbind use default domain = yes template homedir = /home/%U

I am newbie for samba configuration at security level. I have read all the documents but could not resolve my problem. My problem is as below and would like your help to resolve it I have installed Samba - 3.0.0-14 on Redhat ES 3 and everthing is working fine.

Heyho. I'm trying to add registry entries to my workstations remotely from my server. I can currently do this remotely from any other workstation, using the standard Windows regedt32, but I'd like to do it form the server. .. The server is Samba 3.0.22-r3 on a Gentoo server. I've been digging around for a while now, and have managed to find docs for samba-tng which seem to

I am looking at putting the medisoft application on a samba share. I was wondering if there is currently anyone using this configuration and if so then what are some of the problems that I might encounter. The app is currently being hosted on a Winxp pro machine and I need to move it to a server. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Scott Swaim

Hi, Im trying to run samba as a non-root user and I was wondering if this is even possible, and if not what is preventing it from being ran as a normal user??

Hello list, I'm trying to setup Samba to use: ldapsam:editposix = yes but I'm having problems to add users via "smbpasswd -a". It seems smbpasswd tries to modify an existing entry (and falling of course) instead of adding a new entry. Is that a bug, a configuration problem, or intended behavior? Do I need to create a postixaccount entry prior to use "smbpasswd

I have a Samba server with Windows XP clients, and roaming profiles for every user. At this moment everyone can log onto any workstation, but it shouldn't be like that: there are some workstations where anyone can log into, but three of them should be restricted to some specific users. I thought about making local users for them, but we need all users to have roaming profiles, I can't

Hi folks! Our smb with LDAP PDC now seems to be nearly completed. Just now we found out something very mysterious. We organized some directorys to be used by specific domain groups. If we put a user into a group the user is allowed to access the associated share. So far this works pretty nice. If we remove the user from the domain group the user seems to keep all his rights he got from his group

Hiya, I'm trying to set up a Samba PDC with an LDAP backend. I experienced problems joining machines to domains, the machine account was created, but Windows said user name cannot be found. I resolved this by adding ldap to /etc/nsswitch.conf, but this has the side effect of allowing ldap users to login to the server via SSH. Whilst I can understand the need for LDAP users to be accessible

Hello! I tried to run a samba3 server as pdc for windowsXP clients with ldap backend and kerberos authentication. I stuck with these two possibilities: 1. Samba is pdc, winxp is domain-member, users are autheticated against smbpasswords within ldapsam. If the kerberos password of the korresponding principal has the same password, the users get a ticket from the kdc after windows logon. But I

Ok, I'm stumped. Last week domain logons worked. Now when I try to logon, I get a message, "You could not logon because the SJSA domain is not available. I've had this happen before when the trust account between the client and server was out of sync (restored a disk image that had a different trust account password) To fix this, it has been sufficient to quit the domain, reset

Hello, We are using machines with Solaris and Windows XP. The XP machines are joined in a domain(windows 2003) and the Solaris machines are not joined to any domain. With Samba 2.2.8a running on Solaris 9 there are no problems to access them form Windows XP. We are authenticated by DC. On other machines we have Solaris 10 with Samba 3.0.21b and here we are NOT authenticated anymore by DC. So we

For this to work Below shows a A on the old hostname, correct ? With the "netbios alias" used in samba. Setup like this : The new server.. hostname => DNS A IP => DNS PTR Netbios Alias => CNAME OLDSERVERNAME And try again. Remove the A/PTR of the old hostname also. Only a CNAME is sufficient.. Note, the new server MUST have A and PTR setup. optional, set dns

Hello, I have two Domains (DOM1 and DOM2). Each trust each other. Now I configured winbind on PDC1 with the following settings: winbind separator = + idmap backend = ldap:ldap://192.168.1.4 idmap uid = 10000-20000 idmap gid = 10000-20000 winbind enum users = yes winbind enum groups = yes template homedir = /home/%U template shell =

Hello all, I've tried everything I can think of, I've gone through Google and the Samba website and I can't come up with a fix for this problem. I've been running Samba 3 for at least the past year with no problems. I run a small FreeBSD 6.2 box that I use as a storage area for the windows XP systems on my network. Things have been fine up until 3.0.25 and 3.0.25a. Now,

We restored to 3.0.23d after update to 3.0.25a because of strange dfs behavior. the detailed situation: on msdfs root server 'samba' ls -lR dfsroot/: drwxr-xr-x appl1 dfsroot/appl1 lrwxrwxrwx share1 -> msdfs:server1\share1 [dfs] comment = "SaMBa DFS root" path = /path.../dfsroot # next line does not work prior 3.0.25 !!! # hide unreadable = Yes

Hi All, I've got some performance issues with Samba and Vista that I just can't seem to figure out. Googling and fiddling has all been in vain up until now, so I'm not sure what I can do other than wait for Samba 4, but maybe someone here can find something I've missed. First off, the server is an Athlon 64 1.8GHz running Gentoo 2006.1, tested with both Samba 3.0.24 and
