similar to: upgrade and secrets.tdb file ?

Hello We are facing a boring trouble with multi OB boot machines that access to our samba server. All machines authenticate to samba PDC ( linux debian etch + windows ) It appears when machines windows's bootup the shared secret is changed by windows if we reboot the same machine under Linux it cannot authenticate anymore because Linux does NOT change the shared secret ... The machines

Hi, I recently did a complete upgrade and reinstall of one of our Samba servers. No problem, I backed up all the data, the Samba configuration files, and the secrets.tdb. Just compiled 3.0.8 on the new server (which has the same hostname), copied the smb.conf to /usr/local/samba/lib and copied th secrets.tdb to /usr/local/samba/private. Started Samba, did 'net getlocalsid' and it

Hi list, I have a strange permission problem with secrets.tdb on an nfs mounted filesystem. A strace of smbd shows the following lines: ######################################################################## open("/etc/samba/private/secrets.tdb", O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_LARGEFILE, 0600) = 4 fcntl64(4, F_SETLKW64, {type=F_WRLCK, whence=SEEK_SET, start=0, len=1}, 0xbffff010) = -1 EACCES

Hi All, I'm fine tuning my home grown IDS system that checks md5 sums of important config files, and was going to put the secrets.tdb file in the mix, but can't find when and where changes are made to this file. We had a change this morning but nobody was logged in to either Unix or Samba, that I can tell. Of course I'm not able to read it either. This is a stand alone samba

I'm configuring a HA-cluster to share disks using heartbeat from http://www.linux-ha.org/ Two machines, lets call them server1 and server2 share the same disk with an ocfs2 file system. However, the two machines have separate disks for their OS installations. The two physical servers have two gigabit nics each and on those nics I place four virtual IP addresses which heartbeat makes sure is

Hi all, When moving between Samba 3.0.X revisions, I have been able to copy the secrets.tdb file and the trust relationships with foreign domains remain established. However, this does not appear to work when moving directly from 3.0.X to the 3.3.X branch. Is there a tool available that allows us to migrate - or can tdbdump (or similar) be used to dump out data from the 3.0.X format and then be

Hi all, After much grief today, we'd like to support the 'TODO' note in source/lib/util_tdb.c :- /* TODO: If we time out waiting for a lock, it might * be nice to use F_GETLK to get the pid of the * process currently holding the lock and print that * as part of the debugging message. -- mbp */ It could have saved us a whole-sale restart of Samba if we could have more easily

It seems that I can only run "net ads" commands as sudo, otherwise I get an error: Failed to open /var/lib/samba/private/secrets.tdb This is because secrets.tbd has the permissions 700. This is the case even for listing users with the machine account: net ads user -P Is this the normal behavior? Is there a correct way to configure so that ordinary users can use net without sudo?

Hi! I have found no answare to my opinion, why is unencrypted the ldap administrators password in secrets.tdb when I add with smbpasswd -w <secret word> ?!? This is correct or this is some problem? Best Regards bzg

Hi, I am having problems getting winbind on a BDC to work in a Samba3 /LDAP Enviornment and have one straightforward question. Should the secrets.tdb file on the BDC contain an entry with the name of the BDC , e.g. where BACKUP is the name of the BDC ?. { key = "SECRETS/SID/BACKUP" data =

I installed the pre-complied samba-2.2.4-sparc-solaris-2.8.pkg. smbd needs to write to /usr/local/samba/private/secrets.tdb. How can I change the location of that directory? (/usr/local/samba is NFS mounted. Root is nobody, I could make it writeable by nobody, but multiple hosts could write to it). I am using security = server and don't think I even need it, but smbd won't start if it

It appears that there is some setup missing for handling the -P option to commands (via popt_common_credentials_callback()). I was trying to use the example file examples/printing/smbprint.sysv which suggested using the "-P" option to smbclient. I am always getting an error that "/secrets.tdb" can't be opened. I think that what is mis-ordered is that secrets_init() is

Hi all, We're still suffering here with odd performance issues on our Samba 3.0.24 install here on our big chunky Solaris 9 box. The user perceived issue is slow performance (whilst browsing in Windows Explorer, or opening files from within applications etc.etc.) The obvious symptom on the server is a collection of smbd's at the top of the 'top' listing. 4 or 5 or so taking
