similar to: Joining Windows XP client to Samba 3 domain: Access denied

Hi! I so far succeeded in setting up a Samba NT4 DC with OpenLDAP backend. Unfortunately I get the following error message connecting a Windows XP client to the domain (translated from german): [...] The error was: "DNS name does not exist." (error code 0x0000232B RCODE_NAME_ERROR) The query was for the SRV record for _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.lohrmann.de [...] This is surely due to a

Hi, two days ago my functioning samba/ldap server stopped working. I *think* the problem is somehow related to the fact i transfered everything to a new server, but that was two months ago. Trouble started yesterday morning after a power-outage. Configuration: ubuntu 8.04, with a standard samba, ldap and smbldap-tools installed via apt-get. When users tried to login, they got a message "a

Hello, I've just posted about a group management problem (mail was "Samba group management understanding") While waiting for an answer I updated samba to the last version I could find for centos 4 which is 3.3.4.

Hi! I'm currently setting up a Samba 3 PDC. So far I managed to setup Samba with an OpenLDAP backend, but adding a user with the command "net rpc user add mg password -U root" results in the following error: Failed to add user 'mg' with: WERR_GENERAL_FAILURE. In the logfile it says: [2009/10/28 15:56:28, 0] passdb/pdb_ldap.c:ldapsam_create_user(5119)

Hi all, I encounter a problem trying to join a Samba 3 domain with a Windows XP client. Checking the network traffic with Wireshark I can see that the client sends a logon request with an empty username and the samba server replies with "user unknown". This behaviour is the same no matter whether I try to join the domain via system properties or the netdom join command. I can find

Hello all, I am trying to add W2K8 server to our domain "ns.local".

Hi, I'm having permissions problems connecting to a share when the gid of the directory shared is not the primary group of the user connecting to it. Maybe I faced it the wrong way, but I did read (and at least thought I understood) the 'File, directory and share access controls' section of the howto [0]. My users have either one or another 'primary group' (the one set in

Hello I'm hoping someone can provide some insight, sample snippet from smb.conf and the samba log. Password authentication is working & succeeding, complains about an invalid SID which I know is the trust relationship that is formed between server and client, this is a duplicate ldap database from a samba domain controller. On the topic, anyone have a good book to recommend on Samba, I

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi everybody, I'm a french sysadmin and i'm using Samba from a long date.

Hai, Yes that is know. Enable and change the range to a, for you usable range, outside the current ranges. Example: idmap config * : backend = tdb idmap config * : range = 3000-7999 Now start samba and winbind. And posting you smb.conf really helps of analyze things like this.

Hello everybody! I should have an error on the LDAP entries of my ldapSAM, but I've read several times chapters 11 & 12 of the Samba HOWTO Collection and I cannot fix it. Let's explain: I've got a StandAlone fileserver (not PDC) samba-3.0.4 with ldapSAM working on a RedHat Enterprise 3.0 (linux kernel 2.4.25). The directory server version shouldn't be important, but

I am obviously confused about something, and feel like I am chasing ghosts. Any help or clarification would be appreciated. When a user logs in we get messages about corrupt recycle bins. Setting the logging to level 2 for that client, we have errors like: open_directory: unable to create user/Desktop. Error was NT_STATUS_OBJECT_NAME_COLLISION. OK, the folder already exists in the

Hi, I'm running a debian lenny machine with samba (3.5.0) and OpenLDAP installed (2.4.11). When i add a machine to the domain, windows reports the following error: "The specified computer account could not be found". The computer account is added to the LDAP database but without the samba attributes. The weird thing is that if i try it a second the, the samba attributes are added to

Hi, I'm running samba 3.2.5 as a domain controller on a Debian Lenny server with authentication data stored in a local openldap instance. The server has been running smoothly since I originally set it up on Sarge. I upgraded to Etch a while back and then to Lenny about a month ago. I'm trying to add a new Windows XP SP3 client to the domain for the first time since the latest upgrade

Hi, all, We are using Samba 3.0.10 with an LDAP backend. It's been working fine for a long time. One strange thing that has come up today : I cannot add 1 specific domain user to the local Administrator group of Windows servers that are also in the domain. Adding the user to the admin group on a workstation works just fine. Adding other users to the admin group on the Windows servers

Hello!  I had working Samba installation on openSUSE Tumbleweed server.  I made my previous OS update a month ago, and everything worked fine after it.  But today I updated the OS again, and smb.service failed to start.

Hello, I'm trying to configure a Debian woody with samba 3.0.5 and ldap from www.backports.org. I managed to get to the point where I created a user with smbldap-adduser -m -a smbldap-passwd smbpasswd I can log into the server with this user and smbclient //server/user -Uuser%pass works as expected. The WinXP is able to join the domain and the machine account gets created in ldap. But I

Hello, all! I'm running samba 3.0.2 PDC on FreeBSD 5.2 with ldapsam backend. Everything works great (thanks to Samba Team!) except adding add deleting users from user manager for domains.

I'm using samba-3.0.23d-19 on openSUSE 10.2 with an LDAP PDC arrangement I'm trying to sort out some problems with adding a trust relationship. Specifically, smbpasswd is failing when I try to create/modify the domain account. Further investigation shows that it is also failing to modify workstation accounts. However it is able to modify user accounts fine. The big difference here seems
