OK, not exactly a samba issue but maybe the Ubuntu maintainer reads this list and can provide some input. Problem: Ubuntu doesn't daemonize smbd. System: Ubuntu Lucid where a recent update moved many startup scripts into the "upstart" system. Now smbd is started and runs as "smbd -F". If I edit the upstart script (/etc/init/smbd.conf) so that it runs as "smbd

I am seeing the following messages logged every 20 min on a Centos 5.5 Samba 3.5.7 (SerNet RPMs) PDC. wins server = yes is set and the 172.17.1.50 address is the address of the PDC. From a Windows client perspective the the domain is functioning as expected. There is a Samba BDC and mulitple Win2008 R2 member servers in the domain. Are they anything to be concerned about?

I?m testing moving a current Samba PDC configuration from an existing Unix server to a new Debian server, and as expected, can?t login to the new PDC from a PC which had been connected to the old PDC. The new Debian Samba configuration is working okay in that I can join a new PC to it, login, and access shares. In a test environment I renamed the Debian server?s host and domain names to

Dear all, I am facing a peculiar situation: on my smb.conf log level = 5, and on my windows machine I log on as a local administrator to add remote desktop users that are in fact domain users. When my worgroup = SOMETHING, everything works fine. When I change my worgroup to: workgroup = example.com, and try to add a new remote desktop user, and set as an object name example.com\user and try

Hi everyone, new to the list. My apologies if this issue has already been covered, but I am having the following problem with Samba: Using Windows XP as a client, I am trying to see a Solaris system as a server. Solaris is running Samba 2.4.2, and Windows 2000 sees it as a server without any problems. Windows XP, however, generates the error "The network name is no longer

Trying to use smbpasswd to change a password and I get: Old SMB password: New SMB password: Retype new SMB password: SAMR connection to machine NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED failed. Error was 127.0.0.1, but LANMAN password changed are disabled This is with samba-3.5.2. Any clues? Thanks, Chris

Given a DC environment where very few (1-3) hosts actually need to be discovered via browsing is there a good way to limit what is browseable? I'm thinking of something like a read-only WINS - where WINS provides only those servers that need be contacted and doesn't allow client registrations. Such as a wins.dat that only contains the following: ========================================

Hello, I'm working on migrating an NT4 PDC to a Samba 3 PDC. The tricky part, is that the NT4 server is also running Exchange 5.5 which needs to remain running. So unlike a migrate and toss the NT4 system, I need to migrate, then demote the NT4 PDC to an NT4 Server, then (probably) rejoin the domain as Exchange Server will not run on a non-domain member system. Basically looking for any

Hello, I hope this is not a dumb question, but I just need some clarification. I am trying to set up an Ubuntu Samba share for a lab with Windows computers (Vista and XP). I have two shares that are supposed to require authentication and one that is supposed to a public share with no login. I understand from reading the smb.conf manual that "security = user" makes Windows authenticate

Dear, I have a Linux Samba server and a Windows XP SP2 client joined to the "g-company.net" domain. I want to access a Linux share resource in /var/share without password from WXP desktop FROM ANY USER. This is my scenario: - I don't create any Linux local user because I want total access from any user - I use security = share - My smbusers file is: root = administrator admin

Testing 3.6.0 on a member server of a 3.5.8 domain shows some strange problems. With the standard: idmap config * : backend = tdb no results are returned by getent, and wbinfo does not always work, also no winbind_idmap.tdb file is ever created. by changing to: idmap config * : backend = rid or idmap config * : backend = hash results are obtained but are the same regardless of

I'm trying to replace an old Windows 2000 server that is current set up with a number of open anonymous shares used by a legacy application that must remain in production for a few more years. I spent a few hours trying to create anonymous shares on a 2008 R2 box but gave up. My next idea was to use Samba to create an anonymous share, and following this quick-n-dirty HowTo:

Hi, My apologies if this isn't the right place to ask this question. We have trying to setup auditing in Samba but can't seem to get it to work.
