similar to: Solved: Error joining domain "The specified account already exists"

I have reinstalled samba from scratch and copied my previous smb.conf. My main desktop was logged on in the domain.

Removing and

hello & thx for your fast response! i need a way to create samba shares without creating system user accounts: - add users via smbpasswd with unique password - no need for a corresponding useraccount in /etc/passwd - access to the corresponding shares should be independent from any domain (i.e. the share should be accessable via windows client) to come around the useraccount-restriction (as

Hello all, I've added my windows7 client to the domain (samba running as pdc), having applied the registry changes identified here (http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Windows7). Partial success - domain users can login and see shares etc, BUT: 1 - the registry settings in ntlogon/NTConfig.POL are not applied. Am I right in thinking that windows 7 ignores this policy? And if so I therefore

Hi all, I am migrating a Samba 3 domain from an ageing server to a new server. I've exported all users from the old server and imported them on the new server using the following command (LDAP to TdbSam): pdbedit -i ldapsam:ldap://127.0.0.1 -e tdbsam:/tmp/tdbsam.agix scp /tmp/tdbsam.agix new.server.local:/etc/samba/passdb.tdb I've set the same SID on the new server. Windows7

I am writing this here because I did not get a reply to my help requests earlier and managed to solve this by myself. I have a Win2003 server and a Linux box running Samba 3.0.5 as PDC. The problem I had was that domain users could not log in through Terminal Services. Local users could use TS just fine and even domain users could log in locally, but not through TS. In addition, there were

Hi all, I have been trying to get my RHEL 4.0 machine to act as a Windows NT domain controller so that I can get rid of some old NT 4.0 servers. I have the shares and permissions working without issue. The only problem is that I cannot get a Windows 2000 workstation to register to the Samba domain controller. I have gone through everything that I can think of, and have gone through more

Good morning list, due to several changes we have to move from a pure local-users scenario to a member server scenario for our "public" data servers ("public" in terms of "all members of the chair" and "all machines"). The member server is running, managing access via group memberships works. We can't add any account to the ad, as we are only a user

Hi, i need to create users accounts into Samba with already encrypted passwords from a file. I use tdbsam backend and Samba 3.0.24 (Debian Etch) The file format is quite easy : login1|Unix_passwd|Lanman Password Hash|NT Password Hash First, i create the unix users with their already encrypted password : useradd -p Unix_passwd login1. Fine. But can i do the same thing with smbpasswd or pdbedit

Nothing fancy, and I've done this before... but today I'm trying to get samba 3.10.5 with tdbsam working on Centos 6.3. iptables is stopped on the samba server. selinux is disabled on the samba server. service smb and nmb are running. samba server has an 'a' record on our dns server. samba server is set to be a wins server. Note- I have ANOTHER wins server on the same subnet for

What is the recommend method with a samba pdc to give users local administrator access to their workstations? In Samba4 / Active Directory I can use a group policy. For Samba I can add 'Domain Users' to the local administrator group following these instructions. http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba3-HOWTO/groupmapping.html#id2598630Is there a better way to do this?

Please help, I am experiencing a weird error when trying to join a winXP Pro workstation to my samba3 + LDAP Domain. When I specify the account to on my system that has uid 0, I receive a user account cannot be found error. Now I know this isnt the case since I can browse the samba server with this account. Note: it is in tdbsam not ldap When I look for the machine account in the ldap

Hi, recently I got my samba/ldap/pdc setup up and running with xp clients. Server: centos 5.5, openldap-2.3.43-12 and samba3x-3.3.8. The new challenge: adding Windows 7 Clients and upgrading to samba 3.3.x I followed a posting from the centos forum (1) which worked so far for the samba update breaking nothing for xp. Than I installed a windows 7 client with the latest patches, changed the

Opening it in Firefox (default browser) or Open Office works ok. - [homes] Mozilla Thunderbird insists on

Dear R community, I have been getting this warning message after running a function sourced from an R script, and can't seem to work out why R is looking for a folder that wasn't even specified (it attaches a \NA to the specified directory, where assess_rev has not asked to do so at all. R code has been tested by another user and that works fine). I have tried saving the files in a new
