similar to: group setting doesnt work (debian)

Yesterday i had it working, today it breaks.. :( But at least i've turned on logging and can pass you the relevant section of the log ;) When i try to connect to the share 'web', NT throws an error 'The specified group does not exist' and refuses to connect. I'm using virtually the same smb.conf file; I've tried it without the first 3 lines in [global], same

Hi, I am running Samba 3.0.1 on a Debian/Sid machine. I have installed winbind to access the AD of the local network, which I want to use for UNIX logons. wbinfo -u shows all the users of the AD, but "getent passwd" only shows the contents of the file /etc/passwd. I have been following the instruction for winbind (Chapter 21) in the Samba-HOWTO-Collection. Any comments would be

When I run this command I am not prompted for a password, I just get the below error. # smbclient -U root //zmail/homes Error connecting to 10.0.0.14 (Connection refused) Connection to zmail failed (Error NT_STATUS_CONNECTION_REFUSED) --- Now for the back story: CentOS v5.2 with Samba v3.0.28-1.el5_2.1 and Zimbra 5.0.11_GA on x86_64 hardware.

Hi all!! I'd set up my samba 2.2.7 to auth with "security=domain" mode, but my clients cannot auth successfully never because the samba server cannot "talk" correctly with my PDC(w2k adv. Server). In the computer manager event, I see authentication request but with empty usernames......so the PDC reject the authentication request. Is this a know

I have set samba server as PDC and I can see the network in others computers but not in the server, any idea? thx for advance my smb.cnf: # Samba config file created using SWAT # from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) # Date: 2007/03/09 22:38:36 [global] workgroup = DOMINI server string = %h Domain server (Samba, Ubuntu) obey pam restrictions = Yes passdb backend = tdbsam

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

Hello to all: First of all, sorry about my poor english. I am spanish :) I have a debian machine running as a samba file server. The important part of smb.conf is here: ???security?=?share ???encrypt?passwords?=?true ???passdb?backend?=?smbpasswd:/etc/samba/smbpasswd ???obey?pam?restrictions?=?yes ???invalid?users?=?root ???passwd?program?=?/usr/bin/passwd?%u

Dear all! Since several days I'm trying to get Samba's unix password sync to work for me, but I still have problems. I'm using the Samba 3.0.22 binaries that come with Ubuntu 6.06 and this is the [global] section of my smb.conf: [global] workgroup = TEST domain logons = yes preferred master = yes wins support = yes username map = /etc/samba/smbusers syslog = 100 add machine script

I am trying to support our network while the 'IT' guy is on vacation. I have set up samba before, but it has been a few years so I'm very rusty. The problem is a logon failure for a new user. The smb.conf file has workgroup = DELTA server string = File Server security = DOMAIN obey pam restrictions = Yes password server =

Hi- I'm having a recurring problem with Windows XP and a Samba share on logon. More specifically, I have a Samba (v 3.0.24 on Debian Etch) share with share permissions (not a domain) mapped to a drive in Windows XP Pro. Whenever someone logs onto an XP Pro computer in the network the drive isn't there. Here's an example: Say there's a document on the shared drive and a

Hi I havee been trying to setup my Redhat 8.0 Linux as BDC, i have NT4 as my PDC.

I've been running the same configuration for a couple of years now, and since I've upgraded to Office 2007, MS Word and MS Excel files save to my samba shares as -r-------- even when they are opened as being chmod 777. Files I create/edit using other editors or windows explorer are put onto the share with the correct permissions. My conf looks like this: [global] workgroup = WG

Hello all, I recently upgraded from Samba 3.5.6 (the version contained in Debian Stable) to Samba 3.6.5 (the version from Debian Backports) in an effort to closer track the current development to try and chase some long standing bugs out. I think I've resolved one problem but introduced another. I'm getting the "WBC_ERR_DOMAIN_NOT_FOUND" when I try to perform a SID to UID

Hello all, I am running 3.0.22 on Ubuntu 6.0.6 LTS and cannot get user passwords to change while unix password sync = yes. Setting it to no works, but I need it on. At the user workstation (Win XP) I receive "You don't have the permissions to change your password" and logged in on the server as the user I receive "machine 127.0.0.1 rejected the password change: Error was

At one site I support, I have just recently put a policy file on their server to try and make some stuff easier to manage. Only problem is Windows is not even trying to load it. I watched the traffic in Wireshark, and there's no request for the ntconfig.pol file at all. And of course nothing from it is being applied. I had read that this can happen if someone has set the policy refresh

I'm seeing very long delays the first time winbind accesses the network. See: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=496569 I've tried lots of things, down to stripping the config to a bare minimum for ADS security and even killing ipv6 support on the box. Nothing has resolved this. Does anyone see anything obviously wrong with this configuration that might cause a very long

what is the 'passwd chat' line for Samba 2.2.3a-12.3 on Debian Woody that enables password synchronisation with Windows 2000 clients in a domain? I currently have this in smb.conf but it doesn't work: unix password sync = yes passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u passwd chat = *Enter\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n *Retype\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n I get the Windows message

Hi. I've a problem changing the password of the domain user directly from the windows client by using strg+alt+del. If I try to change the password, the client freezes for several minutes and after this amount of time a popup appears with this error: The DOMAIN isn't available. In the the samba logs I see this error: can't connect to service "USERNAME" this is the GLOBAL

Hi all, I have been using Samba 3.0.2a-1 on Debian for a while now, no problems. I upgraded to 3.0.4-5 and now I can't see any printers as shares. I have tried everything I can think of with smb.conf and still no printers show up. Below is my smb.conf and printcap files, does anyone know what's wrong here?
