Please don't flame me. I did attempt to search before posting this question (through Gmail), if there's a better way, please let me know! I followed this article for implementing a Samba PDC: http://www.howtoforge.com/samba_setup_ubuntu_5.10_p4 Question 1) The only accout that appears to be able to add an account onto the domain is the root account. There must be a way to change that

Stephanie, Thank you for your help. I tryed what you suggest but no luck.. I get this: root@lnxsrvr2:~# /usr/local/samba/bin/net groupmap add ntgroup="Domain Admins" unixgroup="Domain Admins" rid=512 Can't lookup UNIX group Domain Admins Is there something with initial compiling samba 3.0.0 that would disable this? All the documentation that I've seen makes it look so

Hello fellow list members, does anyone knows of a good HOWTO (or a book) for setting up Samba as a PDC? I have been dealing around with the Samba HOWTO collection, but to be honest, this is a hard job. There are some errors in it and descriptions are not this good. I even don't know what all the tools are for. I'm really experienced in Linux server stuff, but this one drives me mad.

Hello, Second post: first had logs attached but was too big. I have a test environment with 1 windows 2000 AD domain pdc ( mixed mode install ), 1 linux server ( to become pdc ) and a win xp box to test logon when the migration was completed. The problem is no matter what I try after the migration the win xp's logonserver = windows server not linux server. I have no idea what is going

Hi All, I have already integrated my samba with the Active directory domain using winbind, but I am trying to do the following. I want to map a UNIX group "ccusers" to Active Directory group "NICE\ccusers". I need my AD users that don't have local accounts on my machine to be able to access directories owne by the UNIX group ccusers. It seems like it should be simple to

Is there something special I need to do to let root add computers to the domain in 3.0? When I try to add the workstation I get an error about 'user not found' even though I can logon to a workstation joined to the domain as 'root'. I was able to add computers to the domain with 2.2.8 with an 'add user command' entry and 'domain admin group = root' in my

Relevant part of "net3 groupmap list" is System Operators (S-1-5-21-1617713866-2789119093-1479812082-1007) -> sys In howto there is the following example net groupmap modify ntgroup="System Operators" unixgroup=sys net groupmap modify ntgroup="Power Users" unixgroup=sys You can add System Operators but trying to add Power Users fails.

Hi Everyone, I have a small project going on. I'm about to migrate Redhat 7.3 to Debian Etch (smbd version 3.0.23d-2+b1). I've already managed to migrate Redhat 7.3 to Debian Sarge (smbd version 3.0.14a-) without any bigger problems. However, when I migrate to Etch I face a small problem. The last thing I want to do before I start samba is to grant my linux/samba admin, NT 'Domain

Hi, When I try a net logon from Windows 7 64-bit Business (don't have any other Windows machines), I get "The trust relationship between this workstation and the primary domain failed". The discussion I've found around the Web regarding this error message seems to be only in the context of the 30 day password expiry issue, where the solution is to simply rejoin the domain.

Hi All I have Samba 3.2.11 installed on Suse (sles 10) machine. I am playing around the group mapping functionality. When I map a linux group to nt group.
