I tried setting up a samba/ldap domain using the ldapsam:editposix feature, using the brief instructions at http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Ldapsam_Editposix. Everything goes rather smoothly, and I can add XP machines and log into them as the Administrative user. I added a user to the server, then to samba/ldap using smbpasswd -a newuser ldapsearch -x shows the user & encrypted password, so

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

Hi, Relating to my emails before (SAMBA & SOLIDWORS : cat & dog?) now I've been trying to update my samba-3.0.10 to samba-3.0.32 . I downloaded the source form samba.org and trying to create rpm package from one. I created ~/.rpmmacros file %_tmppath /home/fcmario/tmp %_topdir /home/fcmario/src/rpm %prefix /usr/local and ran % rpmbuild -ta ~/src/rpm/SOURCES/samba-3.0.32.tar.gz I

I am using Ubuntu Linux 9.10 (the latest). After I updated using the update manager the samba suite to the most current packages, nmbd refuses to start. I tried it manually, /usr/sbin/nmdb -D but it does nothing, (doesn't show up in the process list). Could this update be broken? stephen

I've coded some scripts that extract some info from a smb.conf section. In DC works: root at vdcsv1:~# samba-tool -V 4.5.16-Debian root at vdcsv1:~# samba-tool testparm --section sysvol [sysvol] path = /var/lib/samba/sysvol read only = No root at vdcsv1:~# samba-tool testparm --section-name=sysvol [sysvol] path = /var/lib/samba/sysvol read only = No in DM no: root at

When I check my smb.conf file using the testparm -s command I get these messages Unknown parameter encountered: "passdb backend"

Can someone verify that testparm in 3.0.7 always reports the [printers] share as browseable = no ? I think this is a bug in 3.0.7. It might be affecting smbclient listing of printer shares too. Misty

I'm running Samba 4.3.3-3.1 on SLES 11. I'm debugging a configuration as Domain member. I've configured some read only shares.

Hi list! I've read some remarks here and in other places that it would be good practice to not edit the smb.conf file directly but rather keep a smb.conf.master file, edit that and then do a testparm -s > smb.conf. Here comes my problem: My smb.conf file uses some include statements. When using testparm those include lines are still in the output directly followed by the content of the

I just installed samba on a new server, 3.4.5-42, 64 bit version from Sernet, over CentOS 5.4. When running testparm, I get the following warning: rlimit_max: rlimit_max (8192) below minimum Windows limit (16384) I searched Google for some answer but I couldn't find a satisfactory one. What should I do to solve this? Can someone from the Samba team enlighten me on this? Thank you!

Apologies if this has been covered already, I can't find any helpful hints after 2 hours searching.... Testparm refuses to work on my e250 box - says it can't find the file? Any pointers to useful docs will be greatly appreciated (other than SAMS books and O'Rielly - been there, done that!), especially any relating to Solaris 8 and SAMBA! TIA Jo

After updating my test AD DC from samba version 4.5.5 to 4.6.0 and running testparm as asvised, I get the error idmap range not specified for domain '*' ERROR: Invalid idmap range for domain *! After I get trhe dump of the service definitions, I notice that there is a line in the [global] section: idmap config * : backend - tdb However, my smb.conf doesn't contain any such line

I am writing this letter and I hope that I'll have answers about the generation of smb.conf by the way of smb.conf.master with testparm command. Like is described on page 5 of Samba3-HOWTO.pdf. The situation is: - The manual of smb.conf says that the default value of the parameter ?name resolve order? is ?lmhosts host wins bcast?, but when I type the command like: # testparm -s
