similar to: migrate Windows Active Directory Users to Samba+LDAP

I have a problem that's happening randomly in my network. Starting a couple of weeks ago, some clients (All of my clients are running Windows XP)on my network cannot login to their sessions and windows brings out an error saying that the domain controller is not available or is blocked. I don't understand why this is happening, seeing that other clients can perfectly log in their computers

Greetings, I would like some help figuring this out. I really don't know what to do anymore. whenever I try to join an XP machine to the domain it comes up that username or password is not correct. However I know that the credentials are correct, but when I check the logs of that specific machine, this comes up: [2010/09/24 11:42:38, 5] auth/auth_util.c:make_user_info_map(161)

Greetings everyone I finally succeeded in doing the seemingly most difficult thing, "following directions." I got my act together configuring the smb.conf and migrating using net rpc vampire into tdbsam. There are issues with this migration in which computer netbios names which are obviously all uppercase were not being created in /etc/passwd. I put my C cap on and converted the computer

We recently switched to atmail, as well as dovecot. I noticed in atmail the size of the mailboxes was always reported as 0kb. So, I did some debugging, and it boiled down to the fact that the regular expression used by dovecot expected UID before SIZE, but Dovecot returned SIZE before UID. No biggy, I changed the regex, but I was curious if there was a standard. Here's the imap query

Hi, I had trouble getting the pwdump program to work correctly on a german version of NT4SP3. I believe the problem is based on the fact that the german group 'Administrators' is called 'Administratoren', and Administrators is hard-coded into the utility. Would it be possible to make that an optional parameter? Unfortunately, I have no access to a C-Compiler on an NT-station, so

Sorry for all the newbie questions... I could have sworn I saw something about a utility that exports the SAM database from NT into Linux.. seems like it is the lego syndrome, saw it while doing WINBIND searches, can't find it elsewise...anyway...could someone point me in the right direction? I want to export my users from NT to linux with passwords....if that is impossible, I also have all

It's long over due, but now I finally plan on upgrading from v1.0.15 to v1.2.16 on our servers. Would appreciate any comments! We have 7 servers, all running of the same GPFS filesystem. Both maildirs and indexes are stored here. We use dovecot for POP/IMAP and deliver. Currently we're using mysql as authentication source, but want to move to using ldap instead. Can we upgrade one server

Hi people! I?m a fireman from S?o Paulo Fire Dapartment (Brasil) and I?m encharged to give support to the Computer System of the headquarter. We have for about 500 users connected in a fileserver running Red Hat 7.2, but we are authenticating the users using another machine running win NT.

Hello all, I hope this is an easy one, I've read all the howtos but I'm still very hazy on how to do this. What I want to do is replace my NT4 PDC with a Samba 3.0 PDC with an LDAP backend. I've got my OpenLDAP up and running with the basic People, Computers and Groups ou's. I've put the builtin NT groups in too. I have Samba 3.0 functioning as a BDC The trouble is

Guess I don't quite get namespaces, but we have the following namespace configured: $ doveconf namespace namespace { hidden = no inbox = yes list = yes location = prefix = INBOX. separator = subscriptions = yes type = private } But when I try running dsync it complains: $ sudo -u atmail dsync -u janfrode at tanso.net mirror mdbox:/tmp/janfrodeboks

Hi to all ! I'm confronted to the following problem : I have a Linux box (SuSE 6.4 running kernel 2.2.14 & smb 2.0.7). I have configured smb to be the master for domain named essaismb. When I connect to this domain from a windows 98 box, it works fine. However, all the PC that are in my firm are not (yet) configured to connect to this domain. At that moment, they connect to a win NT 4.0

Hi all, I would like to understand the meaning of "Stale mailbox lock file detected" In index-storage.c (https://mis.dopa.go.th/atmail/server_source/dovecot/src/lib-storage/index/index-storage.c) there is this notice "Stale mailbox lock file detected" ... I have a java application which connects via javamail to a dovecot server and I have some anomalies when that message

I've been running continous dsync backups of our Maildirs for a few weeks now, with the destination dsync server using mdbox and SIS. The idea was that the destination server would act as a warm copy of all our active users data. The active servers are using Maildir, and has: $ df -h /usr/local/atmail/users/ Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/atmailusers

Hi: This is my first message to this list, so pleased to meet you all. Using dovecot 2.0.17 from packages at xi.rename-it.nl on a Debian "Squeeze" i686. Mail storage is a local ext3 partition (I attached the output of dovecot -n to this message). I'm having problems on a maildir due to dovecot returning an UID 0 to an UID THREAD REFS command: in <== TAG5 UID THREAD REFS

Hi, I''ve got a question about how to configure the shorewall, and maybe someone could answer. I have a PC with 3 ethernet. The eth0 connets to internet. The eth1 connects to LAN A, and the eth2 connects to LAN B. I''ve configured the shorewall for doing NAT, and both LANs can navigate, but it seems that from a LAN A host you can connect to a PC of LAN B, and the other way

Hello, Right now, I'm using Exim and a customized version of an old?(10 years old)?Atmail POP3 server written in Perl, with ~10000 mailboxes located on a?Lustre file system.?So far so good. Though, I plan to migrate from Atmail to Dovecot, to provide our customers with IMAP support. Has anyone any experience with Dovecot on Lustre FS ? Thanks Christian ?

I have a strange problems with quota on v2.0.14. We have an ldap user directory, and all users should have a mailQuota defined there. My problem is that some users gets the quota enforced, while others don't, and "doveadm user" doesn't seem to agree with "doveadm quota ge gett" Ref: $ doveadm user janfrode at example.net userdb: janfrode at example.net home

Hi, I would like to migrate from NT PDC to a Samba PDC. My main concern is that all my users have local profile (i.e. there is no roaming profiles). It seems that users profiles on a workstation are not valide when migrating to the Samba PDC. It seams that the users cannot keep the same identity. On the other hand, I would really like to change PDC without users noticing anything. Tools
