I go to samba.org and found samba-3.3.0rc1. Is it save to use it in our production server? I'm really desperate here. Anyway, I've been trying to rpmbuild its source code but failed

Greetings, I've been going over mailing list archives and searching the web but all I've been able to turn up are people with similar problems, but not solutions.

I'm setting up anew server with 3.3.0rc1 and cannot join my AD domain. It may not be a problem strictly linked to the samba versiom, for my Active Directory administrators have tightened and enforced security policies since last time I joined a linux server succefully. BTW, this is what I get with net join command: namenor:/usr/src/local/samba/samba-3.3.0rc1/source # net ads join -S

Trying to compile Samba --with-winbind, --with-ads, --with-krb5 and --with-pam on AIX 5.2. I receive the set of errors shown below before the compile fails in pam_winbind.c. This happens with Samba 3.0.11, 3.0.10, and 3.0.4 (shown below). The ultimate goal is to have users be able to telnet or ssh into the AIX boxen with their credentials actually stored in AD. What am I doing wrong? Are

I'm having issues with a couple of areas of Samba Setup. I can see (from my Win 8.1 workstation) the shares for the server for my test share \\p30\download<file:///\\p30\download> and \\p30\bietz<file:///\\p30\bietz> my home folder. I don't have permissions to access the folders and/or can't create or delete files. I had an upgraded Active Directory domain from Windows

I keep seeing questions about Windows Active Directory, so I will pass along what info I have been able to gather. Active Directory is billed as Microsoft's LDAP service, used to hold user, group, and other such data and is standard with Windows 2000. While billed as LDAP, Active Directory does not conform to standard LDAP schema, which will break some ldap clients written specifically to

Well, I have tried really hard to get any of the idmaps to work--in that, idmap_ads, idmap_rid, and I have tried to use idmap stroage in ldap with padl (nss_ldap) too, but I have had no luck. If I enable pam in /usr/lib/security/methods.cfg or nss_ldap, I cannot log into the system anymore. If I enable pam in /etc/pam.conf and use in /etc/security/users SYSTEM = "WINBINd or WINBIND[UNAVAIL]

Greetings, I currently have Samba 3.0.14a built using gcc 3.2.2 on a Solaris 9/Sparc box. This Samba server is a member server of our Active Directory (AD) domain called "CSUNET". When logged unto a windows client machine as an AD user I can see and access resources on the Solaris server. I've been trying to get PAM working to pam_windbind.so and correctly configured. So
