Hello samba, I would like to ask about what is the most common and less effort way to let users change time without admin privileges on windows workstations. To be exact I'm trying to find out the quick and dirty way to sync time between win workstations (xp and vista) and PDC Samba 3.3.2. I do use net logon scripts and it is failing on net time \\pdc-server /set /yes command because of

I am quite desperate. I have been trying to migrate a NT4 PDC to Samba. At the first try, I have used samba 3.2.5, which seemed to complete the vampire process but then I have found that there is a bug that prevents password from being migrated properly (and in fact passwords were not migrated properly). Then, I have removed the Linux server from the NT domain, deleted all TDB files, installed

Hi, I'm trying to prepare migration from NT4 server to samba with ldap backend. For testing and simulating I have prepared one NT4 server, one Centos 5.5 samba server and now I have almost working setup for vampiring users and groups. Using following packages: samba3.i386 3.5.7-43.el5 samba3-cifsmount.i386 3.5.7-43.el5 samba3-client.i386 3.5.7-43.el5 samba3-doc.i386 3.5.7-43.el5

Hello all, I'd like to know how to clear winbind cache. The problem is that we have decided to change uid and gid mapping range, but changing smb.conf accordingly didn't help. We use ldap as backend. After deleting all idmap entries in ldap nothing changed. If we disable winbindd caching with -n switch we receive desired effect - users get mapped to new uids and gids. Restarting winbindd

I just did a clean install of Fedora 9 onto a Pentium 4 machine. It is actually running SELinux enforcing, but I haven't found any errors related to that so far. It is running Samba 3.2.3-0.20. I am trying to migrate a Windows NT 4.0 domain with about 30 users and 30 computers onto a pure Samba setup, using Samba as the PDC and tdbsam. I have read the HOWTO guide extensively, and

There is a line in my message that was incorrect. It should state the following: The users with "(primary)" attached to their name are being deleted.

Hi, Can someone help me get "net rpc vampire" in one of its forms working. The objective is to migrate from an NT4 PDC to a SAMBA 3.0 PDC using LDAP as a back end. I am trying to migrate the user and machine accounts across in a lab environment, separate from the main network (I have replicated the PDC to do this). I have samba-3.0.20b built from the samba team source RPM on Fedora

We just migrated a small network from a Win2K PDC to Samba, using "net rpc vampire" into a tdbsam backend on a Samba 3.0.2a Linux box. One of the users, let's call him Jon Harker, had the NT username "JHarker". When we ran "pdbedit -v jharker", we saw this: Unix username: JHarker NT username: JHarker Well, that looks wrong - the NT

Hi All, Hope someone here can help me ? *See end for background and system information... I'm looking for advice or links to clear documentation on the use and configuration of "net vampire" and it's ability to download PDC accounts with passwords intact.

Can samba4 vampire another samba4? After a dozen administrators there seems to be some oddities, and since we started with samba4 alpha9 (I think) it may be time to go straight to current release. I guess that the idea is to get a fresh start and I hoping that a vampire rather than an upgrade would only transfer the needed stuff... Am I doing the wrong thing? I now far to little of windows to

This patch allows net rpc vampire to create accounts in the same way that smbpasswd does, i.e. it will attempt to use the appropriate account creation function for the backend in use. From reading the comments on the top of the local_password_change function, either I shouldn't be going this route or local_password_change is due for some sort of change in status. The only major caveat I've

I'm trying to migrate accounts from a NT4 PDC to a Samba 3.0.26a server with a ldap backend, using "net rpc vampire". I was able successfully to run the "smbldap-populate" script and verified that users and groups were created by running "pdbedit -Lw" and "net groupmap list". According to the output from "net rpc vampire" all accounts and

Reading through the Samba3 -By Example guide and I'm confused with the statement section 9.2 http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-Guide/ntmigration.html#id2594565 about accessing the SAM and Security sections of the registry will render the PDC non operable. Its clear from the text if you go and edit the registry(regedit etc..) so you can read the entries your PDC will not work.

Hi, im using net rpc vampire to migrate users/ groups from nt4 to samba3 with ldap backend. But the umlauts (????) in the displayname are malformend. Unix charset in smb.conf is set to ISO8859-1. Any hint how to correct this? Regards S.Drees

Hello experts, I've migrated our NT4 domain to sambe 3.0.20b/ldap backend with "net rpc vampire", and nearly everything works as expected. But one big problem remains: it's not possible to login to the domains member maschines now, because "the domain is not available at the moment" (translated from german). After the maschine rejoined the samba domain, login

Hi, I'm a informatics engineering student and I am working on a factory placement which consists of migrating an NT4 based network upon Red Hat Linux AS 3. I took the manual from www.samba.org <http://www.samba.org/> and adapted the variables as suitable for my case. The only one moment where I cannot carry on anymore is when I am supposed to use net rpc vampire on the PDC. Here is
