Hi, I am trying to upgrade Samba from 3.3.2 to 3.3.9 for Win7 compatibility issue. It is running on Redhat 9.0 (I've planned to upgrade to Centos 5.5 in a second setp) and without any ldap backend (tdbsam actually). As I have already done in the past for upgrading, I have done the following procedure : 1) Compile 3.3.9 . My configure option are : ./configure --with-acl-support

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 am trying to use usrmgr.exe in order to manage users and groups on my samba server PDC (passdb backend = tdbsam ) . I have the following strange behavior of usrmgr.exe : * when I launch usrmgr.exe from a user account that is part of the Domain Admins group or that explicitly has the SeAddUsersPrivilege privilege, I can see the list of users and groups , and create a new user, BUT when I

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

Hello I have been solving a problem how to make a nonroot user able to administer the domain (add users, groups, modify them etc.) from Windows workstation using usrmgr.exe It looks like what is stated in Samba HOWTO collection as prerequisites is not enough.

Using Suse ES9 SP2 with OpenLDAP backend with Samba 3.0.21pre I'm getting the following error. "The stub received bad data Would you like to administer another domain?" then User Manager closes when I select no. User Manager seems to work in limited fashion if Low speed connection is selected. This has worked fine until a few days ago and I have not made any changes. Thanks

Hi all, I have set up a test configuration with Samba 3.0.2a and ldapsam/nss on FreeBSD 5.2.1, one PDC and two BDC's on different subnets. Most is now humming along quite well and I need to get a grip on the administrative side of it. - Is it possible to use the NT4 usrmgr.exe to administer accounts? Have people used to nothing but Windows who needs to add/delete users. I have tried but

Dear All, I stepped over a strange issue today. I have one installation of samba winbind 3.3.2 on a Ubuntu machine. Changing the primary unix group of a user is updated immediately. On a newer samba 3.5.4 installation the primary group is not updated at all. It always displays "domain users". Is there a new setting for the smb.conf? Here is my smb.conf: [global] netbios name =

Fixed the network issue by removing the net udev rule, somehow that was causing the network no to come up. Disabled iscsid since it's not needed and added did echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs to fix the megaraid issue. -----Original Message----- From: centos-bounces at centos.org [mailto:centos-bounces at centos.org] On Behalf Of Paul A Sent: Friday, April 13, 2012 3:41 PM

Hi. I have two servers located in two different time zones. I want to know if there is a way to keep the shares synchronized. Right now what i thought is to run rsync from Server A to Server B . However the issue is say Server B has a new version of the file in server A and that should not be overwritten but should be copied back to server A. How to go about this? Regards Janantha

Hi, I have a RHEL 5.6 server with samba3x-3.5.4-0.70 instaled, it acts as a PDC, it has OpenLDAP in the same server. Everything works fine, so far, the windows xp and windows 7 machines are inside the domain, and users from the ldap can log from their machines. The thing is that i am trying to create groups, so some users can administrate others users, but not all the users. I know that samba

Hello, After upgrade samba on my 64-bit RHEL4 server from version `3.0.31` to `3.5.3` everything just works fine, but I only have issues with `usrmgr.exe`. Before upgrade, I could manage domain accounts with this utility. Now it say "Access denied" after running without any detailed information. I checked out samba logs and didn't found any errors related. How to get it working

Hi Guys, After a chat with some helpful people on Freenode I've included as much information as I can think to about this error, if you need anything else please don't hesitate to ask. I run a webserver (remotely administered, no graphical user interface that i know of - certainly not one running all the time) - in the past few days this error has started to occur, the system dies and

Hi all (and best wishes for the new year to everyone :-) ) I have currently a Samba 3.5.6 server that acts as a PDC and print Server, with tdbsam backend, no LDAP at all. In a very next future, I will have to migrate samba to a new server (a VM actually). This migration will have to be seamless for all users (more than 200 user accounts with more than 200 PC in the domain). The

now that samba3 compile in my redhat 7.2 i want to test it.. reading the documentation that described the new features supported in samba3alpha i cant find too much explanation.. and here is the quiz: now from a win9x client when i see the list of users, i can see groups for adding to my win9x clients shares?? what is the state of support of changing password from a terminal like NT SERVER

I have samba setup to use an external password change command using: [global] ... unix password sync = Yes ldap password sync = No passwd program = /path/to/smbldap-passwd -u %u passwd chat = *New*password* %n\n *Retype*new*password* %n\n I use the Idealx smbldap-passwd command to update my LDAP database and everything works fine. I decided to modify the smbldap-passwd script to check for bad

I have a couple of Samba 2.2 servers, in different locations, configured as NT Domain Controllers, but I'm experiencing some problems with logging on to the domains as Administrator in order to perform some administration tasks, such as configuring antivirus software on workstations. I won't go into the details here; I think the basic problem is my lack of understanding of how the

I currently have samba version 3.0.23 installed using ldap as the backend. I am experiencing the same problems as Holger Wesser mentioned in his posting "USRMGR.exe not working properly". However, it appears that the fix of creating the group mappings does not work. They appear to be mapped correctly on my setup. My net groupmap list is: Domain Admins

Hi, I seem to have a problem with crontab. I am running CentOS 5.5. If I add my bakup scripts into crontab they take very long to run. If I run my scripts manually they run 100%. I have also tried vixiecron, same issue. Any ideas? Thanks Jenny -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:
