similar to: Samba4 and account policy

Hello, I have successfully installed SAMBA4 Alpha12 as PDC. I added two machines. Ubuntu 11.04 Linux and Windows 7. They both can authenticate and log in to the machines. WHich is great. The problem comes when users trying to change their password. This is not working! It's constantly complaining for the complexity. However I used strong and absolutely different to any previous password.

Hi All, I am using Samba4 Alpha12, and i am trying to edit the password policy (which I believe is derived from the PDC's policy), but I am trying to figure out whether Samba4 can respond to GPOs. If It cannot, how would I define the password policy for the domain? Thanks.

Dear, I'm starting on R language. I would like some help to implement a MLE function. I wish to obtain the variables values (alpha12, w_g12, w_u12) that maximize the function LL = Y*ln(alpha12 + g*w_g12 + u*w_u12). Following the code: rm(list=ls()) ls() library(stats4) Model = function(alpha12,w_g12,w_u12) { Y = 1 u = 0.5 g = -1 Y*log(alpha12 + g*w_g12 + u*w_u12) } res =

There is a thread on this topic already: http://finzi.psych.upenn.edu/Rhelp10/2010-August/250934.html I'm rather mystified by a similar problem and wondering whether I've overlooked something obvious. I'm running with latest versions of R and all packages, and latest version of JAGS running under Windows 7. Here's the problem. I have some source code. It's given below -

I am trying to run WinBUGS 1.4 from the Ubuntu 6.10 Linux distribution. I am using the R2WinBUGS packages with the source file listed below. WinBUGS appears to run properly, but I get the following message after WinBUGS starts in WINE. Does anyone know what may be causing this error and what the correction may be? Thanks ERROR MESSAGE: fixme:ole:GetHGlobalFromILockBytes cbSize is 13824

Hello! I've set up samba 4 with great success since alpha12, but i've always used a locally installed version of BIND. Is it possible to use a seperate BIND server instead? I'd like to not run BIND on my file server. I have not seen any instructions to this effect, so perhaps someone would please point me in the correct direction? Thank You Very Much!! ++AMARU

Dear all, after switching from Samba4-alpha10 to -alpha12, it is no longer possible to manage user accounts via the RSAT on Windows 7 Professional. The program says that name information can't be retrieved, because the domain controller isn't configured properly (or the like, I read it in German). However, joining the domain and logging in with administrator or simple user account is

I am trying to see if Hyper-V 2008 R2 Failover Clustering will work with Samba 4 as the Active Directory server. Have installed Samba 4 (version alpha12) on CentOS 5.4. Anybody else tried this before? Please share your experiences here. Thanks, Ajay

Hello, When I tried to change the password policy on a samba 4 domain controller I get the following error. root at server01:/usr/local/samba/lib/python2.6/site-packages/samba/netcmd# ./pwsettings.py --complexity=off Traceback (most recent call last): File "./pwsettings.py", line 25, in <module> import samba.getopt as options ImportError: No module named samba.getopt root

Hello all! I am new to the mailing lists, as well as Samba. I was looking for an Active Directory alternative for linux, and finally landed on Samba4. My installation is alpha12, installed via apt on Ubuntu 10.10. I am trying to create roaming profiles, however, if "path = /UserData" then the profiles are viewable from every user account by simple accessing "

Hi! I am currently using Samba4 Alpha13 but I have not been able to change a users password. I curently can add a user using ldbadd and a ldif file but I would like to know the recommended way of changing a users password. It would be nice if it could be done from the adminstrator account so that you do not need to know the original password. Thanks for the help! MS

I've run into persistent problems with OpenBUGS crashing when using BRugs .53 and .71, and am hoping someone has suggestions. There is obviously something unusual going on in my environment, but I'm at a loss as to where to begin to try to solve it. In a nutshell, what happens is that, as soon as I call "modelCheck()" in BRugs, it gets an error or crashes ... but only some of

Hello All, I am trying to set up a sync between google apps professional and samba4, we are currently in the fase to use samba4 instead of our current windows 2008 AD. However, I can't seem to browse the internal LDAP server. I am using the alpha12. Whenever I try to connect, I recieve no such attribute. Please advise on how to connect properly. -- Jorijn Schrijvershof

Our environment: samba4 (alpha12) running on centos 5.4. We are experimenting with Hyper-V 2008 R2 Failover Clustering, which requires Active Directory. We are trying to see if samba-4 will work as the AD server. We are trying to create 2 node failover cluster. Both nodes have joined the domain successfully (with samba-4 as the DC). But subsequent steps of creating the "Failover

It turns out that when I use GUI (file-change dir) to set the working directory, R will crash. If I use setwd() instead, the example runs well.

I have a question about bad password lockout. Net pwsettings has settings for Complexity, Password history Length, Minimum password length, Minimum password age, and Maximum password age. But I can not see how to set a bad password login attempts. Can this be set using a group profile? Getting ready to use samba 4 for authentication purposes but really do need this ability. Everything

Hello all; I use samba 4.7.2 in a CentOS 7.5 proxmox container. Is there a way to know the password structure for a domain? I mean, the number of characters that must use the password, to set the use of password requiere complexity structures, to set the number of days before the change of the password, etc. How I can see this?

hi All, first of all, please keep up the good work. I use samba for at least 10 years now, and it never let me down. And the samba 4 release would even be better then ever (tried the alpha's already in test labs with multiple AD controllers, very impressive). But, now I am facing some difficulties. I need to migrate a small firm (40 users or something, will increase to 50 in 2 years or so)

I have used the Samba4 Howto as a guide. I am using OpenSuse 11.3 and the Samba version is: 4.0.0alpha15-GIT-61f7d7c. Everything was working as intended after installation. I did a fresh install on another computer of Windows 7. Joined my freshly made domain. Installed the remote administration tools. Created three users for testing with the remote admin tool - "Active Directory Users and

Hi, I'm trying to use the samba cvs service to keep up with the NT Domain Stuff, my problem is that the smbdes.c that I receive is mangled (looks like the diffs has lost sync somehow, since some lines are duplicated, and others have mismatched parenthesises). Here is the diff I get between the current cvs version and alpha12. --- alpha12/source/smbdes.c Mon Oct 27 18:15:44 1997 +++
