Hi Moray, ? Thanks for your answer. It could help but only partially. ? The script name logon%u.cmd was a bad example. Actually, a user can log on from WinXP , or Win 7 workstations, and I'like to run different logon scripts depending on the OS . So having logon script = logon%a.cmd in the smb.conf generally works thanks to variable substitution. ? But for user accounts that have been

Hi, I would like to change the Logon script name attributes of a samba user account to something like logon%u.cmd using pdbedit with the --script option. It does not work because the string logon%u.cmd is litteraly taken as the value, loosing the variable substitution at evaluation time. pdbedit -v output gives "Logon Script : logon%u.cmd" .? When creating a user account without

I recently am migrating my PDC from NT4 to Samba 3.025. Apparently due to a mismatch between the capitalization of the Windows account and the Unix account (Administrator vs administrator) I managed to lock the account before catching the discrepenacy. # pdbedit -v administrator Unix username: Administrator NT username: Administrator Account Flags: [ULX Bad password count

Dear all, I have a very strange problem with "pdbedit -Lv" under Samba 3.3.10, a lot of users and machines are missing ! Strangely, all these missing machines and users are working perfectly well. The problem is that I need to get their SID to be able to migrate to a new server... TECHNICAL DETAILS : * Samba 3.3.10 * Number of machines : * Unix : 128 machines * pdbedit

Hi, all -- I am trying to write a script in which I can add users and their samba passwords easily and quickly.? It looks something like: ?? useradd -c "User Name" -g groupname -p unixpassword accountname ?? echo -e "smbpassword\nsmbpassword\n" | pdbedit -a -t -u accountname If I type the lines from the keyboard, it works fine.? However, when I try to execute the script, the

I have am hitting a wall with pdbedit, as shown below. Any workarounds would be greatly appreciated. I am encountering the inability to change any users (profile) SID on Samba 3.x for Linux and BSD, which causes the accounts to no longer recognize their local Samba 2 profiles once they join Samba 3 domain. If I add a new user and pdbedit -a user -U SID it ignores the -U. The old profiles appear

I have a couple of questions about pdbedit. I am having trouble using pdbedit in shell scripts. First, on a freshly installed system with no-one in the tdbsam database, trying to add multiple machine accounts via a loop construct in a shell script fails with a message that the database can't be found/doesn't exist. I then added root manually just to get the system going, which solves

I am confused on the various account creation methods in samba. I am running Fedora Core 8 and Samba 3.0.26a-6. 1.) I can create a user with pdbedit -a I can create a user with smbpasswd -a I can list the users with the pdbedit -L command Where is the file with the users that the above commands create and pdbedit -L lists? 2.) In SWAT under "server password management" I created a use

Thank you very much for your answer. It's the default, internal backend. (smbpasswd) a) If I do : tdbdump schannel_store.tdb dump | grep BWPC |grep SECRET | wc I get 95 machines (this number looks good). b) smbpasswd is a text file that looks good. c) I can also do "tdbdump secrets.tdb dump" Thanks a lot in advance for any advice, Denis Le 15.12.2014 22:00, Gaiseric

Dear Samba Users, I have a Samba 3.2.5 Server running on Debian. I use tdbsam as a password database and wonder how I can change the "Workstations" value in order to control the allowed workstations for a particular user. Last year I had a configuration with ldap using the smbldap tools where it was possible to set this value. But how can I set it without LDAP just using pdbedit?

Hi ! This is my firs post here. I've got a problem with password history policy -C 3 which doesn't work !! I set policy pdbedit -P "maximum password age" -C 777600 (90days) pdbedit -P "minimum password age" -C 691200 (80days) "user must logon to change password" -C 2 "password history" -C 3 On clients (XP PRO) some of people

Greetings, I am running samba-3.0.10-1.4E.9 installed from rpm on CentOS 4.4. I have it configured as a PDC. It is using the /passdb backend = tdbsam/ backend. I am using /pdbedit/ to make some configuration changes to user passwords. I would like to expire a users password, so that they are required to change it the next time they log in. From all that I have read in on-line resources

Hi all Maybe a stupid question, but I'm not able to figure this out from the manpage nor from the HOWTOs... How can I force a user to change his password at next logon? I tried: # pdbedit -P "user must logon to change password" -C 0 -u username # pdbedit -u username -P "user must logon to change password" -C 0 # pdbedit -P "user must logon to change password"

If I try to do the following: /usr/local/samba/bin/pdbedit -a -u someusername -U 5000 This works as one would think, the account is created with a RID of 5000. But when I do: /usr/local/samba/bin/pdbedit -a -m -u somemachinename -U 3000 It does not work as you would think. The account is created but with the RID of the Unix UID*2+1000 not, a RID of 3000 as specificed on the command line. And

the testparm command will show you the location of the password file and the backend type e.g. smb passwd file = /etc/samba/private/smbpasswd passdb backend = tdbsam The backend file should be a TDB database file , not a plain text file (unless left over from an older version.) You may have users or computers with duplicated SIDs. You should also use "getent
