Hi, I just compiled samba 3.0.23 on our Sun Solaris 8 server. 3.0.22 was running fine and I used the same compiler options for 3.0.23. $ ./configure --with-acl-support --prefix=/usr/local/samba3023 --with-quotas --with-included-popt --without-ldap --with-vfs gcc version 3.4.2 GNU Make 3.80 Running make now throws a lot these warnings: [-snip-] Linking nsswitch/libnss_wins.so ld: warning:

When adding a domain user to a samba 3.6 PDC I found that the [homes] share was not created. It turns out there was no home directory specified in /etc/password for this user. Once a linux home directory was added the [homes] share worked, but I would expect this to work anyway since a different path is being used for windows home directories than for the linux users. Is this expected behavior

Hi I read and used the article http://blog.wazollc.com/Lists/Posts/Post.aspx?ID=2 to authenticate my ad accounts when logging on to cent 5...however, once I edit the nsswitch.conf file, I can't even log on as root or any local users anymore. Kinit seems to initialize fine doing a kinit username at MYDOMAIN.COM , however doing a getent passwd adusername ....it just sits there in the shell and

Hi all... Im at the stage where: Kinit works Net ads join -U Administrator works (I can see the computer in AD) Net ads user works Wbinfo -u / -g / -t works Getent passwd/group works What I cannot seem to get working is when someone logs onto the domain, and then tries to map a drive to the samba server, its like the credentials arent getting passed onto samba, or rather samba is unable to look

Hi list, I have successfully authenticated active directory users with samba. Now I need to create some Active directory security groups and authenticate and redirect those users to a specific directory. Ex: IT_GROUP - user x , user y FIN_group - user a, user b If the user x , access the samba server, that user will be redirected to the specific directory (that's in the samba stanza). This

Greetings list, I just upgraded to samba 3.6.0 trying SMB2. Though Windows 2008 R2 can work with SMB2 shares just fine, I'm unable to access SMB2 shares with mount.cifs or smbclient, even with "-m smb2" specified -- I get this "Unrecognised protocol level smb2", whereas smbclient comes with samba-client-3.6.0-63.1.rpm. So is this supported yet (from client side) or I

Hello list, Accidentally I found that when network is down "smbclient -L localhost -U%" became slow however it still succeeded after like half a minute. This is weird because my Samba server is running inside AD, Q1. How can smbclient authenticate without talking to AD controller? I think in this case smbclient at least tried to (reach AD controller), otherwise shouldn't take it

Hello list, I've got a question from reading Using Samba 3rd, where it puts: ... the final permission is caculated by below filters in the order used by Samba: 1. Apply any DOS attribute mapping options << I take this as either map DOS attributes to execute bits, or store DOS attributes in extended attributes. Correct? 2. Apply the create mask settings 3. Apply the force

Is there an option to the net command to not have it update DNS in AD? We are joining servers using the net ads join command and it's changing our static DNS entries to dynamic ones which then get deleted when AD does its DNS scavenging. It seems that dynamically updating DNS is the default. The command we're running is: net ads join -U adminuser%adminpasswd Thanks - Mike Mike

[For those on both this and samba-technical - sorry for the duplication. I meant to send this here, but I experienced a user error. :-) ] I'm having a problem related to the NT_STATUS_OBJECT_PATH_NOT_FOUND error and I am having a little difficulty discovering what this means.

Hi all, I have been trying to setup authentication of users on a Linux server against Windows server 2003 using winbind. I am at the point where an su - ADUSERNAME works, but sshing as that user still doesn't work. When I try to ssh as an AD user as follows: ssh -l "RILINUX+testuser" server.domain.com I get the following output in /var/log/messages: server pam_winbind[5906]:

I posted this to the amanda-users ml earlier today, as I run several amanda backup servers and hit this issue again today. -> "I have to upgrade to samba-4.2.11 (gentoo linux) on an amanda server running amanda-3.4.1 Does anyone know if this: http://www.backupcentral.com/forum/16/263253 ... is still an issue?" -| my interpretation: samba-4.2.11 / smbclient has problems with

Hi all: I've got an issue on one of my winbind-configured systems. I've got it configured per instructions found on one of ubuntu's forum sites. I've configured two 9.10 systems, one works perfectly. I've copied most of the files over to the non-working system; they are configured identically as far as I can tell. On both systems, wbinfo -u/-g, getent passwd, and ssh login

Hi; I've run into a somewhat interesting issue in regards to IIS serving content from a samba share. Occasionly, IIS will return 404 errors for content that does infact exist. >From the samba machine, I captured the following: This is an example of the site http://www.mysite.co.nz/foo not working: [2004/11/04 09:30:14, 3] smbd/trans2.c:call_trans2qfilepathinfo(2353)

Hi, I just upgraded from: samba-3.0.23d-1 to: samba-3.0.25b-3 After starting samba, I could no longer connect to any share, I get this error: NT_STATUS_OBJECT_PATH_NOT_FOUND I builded both samba rpm using the packaging/RHEL/makerpms.sh script on Centos 4.5 Is there any big change in 3.0.25? I readed all releases notes and didn't found any cause for this error. Thanks Oliver Here is the

I have setup samba with msdfs, and configured it. The problem is that it works with some windows 2000 workstations, but not with others, even if they are at the same service pak levels. I.e, I have workstation a and workstation b, both running 2000. On workstation a, I can map the dfs share to a drive, and be able to access everything in that share (which is different shares on different

If a file is stored directly on a DFS enabled share, renaming fails with NT_STATUS_OBJECT_PATH_NOT_FOUND. The usecase may sound unusual, but a customer is using NetApp ONTAP 9, which by default advertises DFS capabilities for all shares, and he cannot disable it for policy reasons. I can also reproduce the issue with smbd and Windows Server 2012 R2 (haven't checked with other versions).

Hello all, I already successfully configured shadow copy service without a delimiter and regex. But as soon as I try to get this to work with regex, nothing shows up on the win client.

Greetings list, Have a situation that doesn't fail but with inconsistent results: With a Samba 3.5.4 running as AD member, and map an AD user into a local user on Samba server, configurations are like below: smb.conf: username map = /usermap.txt usermap.txt: foo = MYDOM\bar Then try to access AD user bar's home directory via 1) smbclient //localhost/bar -U
