Hello. When I run smbpasswd from samba 3.0.23a on a MIPSEL system running Linux 2.4.20 as root, I'm NEVER asked for a password. Even when I create a new user in smbpasswd, I'm not asked: root@HD.bei.digitalprojects.com:/etc/samba# strings smbpasswd root:0:AAD3B435B51404EEAAD3B435B51404EE:31D6CFE0D16AE931B73C59D7E0C089C0:[U ]:LCT-44D63D42:

When I used smbpasswd it gives me the following error... root at hayek:~# smbpasswd john New SMB password: Retype new SMB password: Failed to find entry for user john. This is despite the existence of the user root at hayek:~# cat /etc/samba/smbpasswd # # SMB password file. # nobody:65534:XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX:XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX:[U ]:LCT-00000000:nobody

My question is, how come daevid (on XP) sees the following directories: \\linux\dae51d \\linux\homes Shouldn't there just be the home dir only? Why does "\\linux\dae51d" show up (I assume it's b/c that's who I am logged in as on XP which maps to linux)? However, the fact that it does show up, shouldn't it be the actual HOME directory of the linux user account dae51d (as

Hi, I'm attempting to migrate an NT4 domain to Samba3, and getting quite frustrated with stuff that seems not to work as advertised. I'd appreciate any help. I've set up an OpenLDAP server, and Samba 3, configured it as a BDC, and tried running "net rpc vampire". This all works, and Samba does the appropriate stuff to try and populate the LDAP database. The scripts I've

I just want a simple, globally accessible directory for anyone on my LAN. I don't care who they are, who they're logged in as on their windows machine, I don't care about security (it's my own private LAN!!!). Why is this so difficult to do? I've looked through the archives (which by the way, could someone spend a few minutes and put a SEARCH feature there. Following threads

Hey everyone, firstly thanks for your time, I've spent hours, a lot straight days too, for the last couple of weeks trying to solve this issue. The only thing (afai can see) I've got left is asking the experts and formatting all the machines and starting over, the latter of which I'm not interesting in doing because it doesn't solve the issue (well it might make the problem go

Hallo, I can't join a win2K machine on my domain. I create the machine account dynamically in my smb.conf by the following line: add machine script = /usr/sbin/useradd -d /dev/null -g 200 -s /bin/false -M %u Now a machine account is created and added to my users (this part works ok) Samba also generates a machine account for samba (I could not find a line for that in my smb.conf) But the

Hello, Please, i need help with security mode = share. i want to configure security = share and the parameter "username = user" in a shared folder to avoid that everybody could access to it. f I have understood correctly the manual, this configuration enables to access if the password provided matches with the user`password. But when i try to access returns this error: smbclient

I've searched google and the samba archives to no avail (appologies if I've missed something), so I will ask the community directly: I am trying to convert a fully populated smbpasswd file to the tdbsam backend: # pdbedit -i smbpasswd:./smbpasswd -e tdbsam:./passdb.tdb This seems to work, on the surface, but upon inspection I find that # pdbedit -Lw username

Hi All I'm trying to set up a machine with a simple samba configuration. I've written the config file with no problems, however any time I attempt to connect to the shares it doesn't work. Firstly, the smb.conf: [global] netbios name = TEMPSRV workgroup = LIPSON map to guest = Bad User [ittechs] comment = Should not see me... path = /var/smb/ittechs read only = no force user =

Hi, Is it possible to have a static user database along with an LDAP password database and *not* be forced to set "allow_all_users=yes" for the userdb? The wiki page on static user database says "Normally static userdb handles this by doing a passdb lookup instead." How should the passdb behave in order for this to work? In my tests (on a test server) I am using

There is a bug in Swat package samba-swat-3.0.2a-3mdk The password functions are not working: add user, change password, enable user. If you add or enable a user, the user will be disabled. You can check this by opening /etc/samba/smbpasswd file. Entry will look like: johnz:500:XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX:XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX [DU?????????]:LCT-00000000: The 32 X indicates that

I just created a new smbpasswd file, all users with unset passwords. Problem is, users can't set their passwords, only I can as root. Password is not set / blank, but they still get: >test> smbpasswd >Old SMB password: <enter> >New SMB password: Samba >Retype new SMB password: Samba >machine 127.0.0.1 rejected the password change: Error was : RAP86: The >specified

Hi, i have a Samba PDC (no LDAP) and added add user script to my config. I can create the user with no problems, login is possible but the /home/samba/profile/user dir is not created.

I have finally managed to compile and install samba 1.9.7alpha5 with des, shadow passwords and PAM. I have a new problem now. my 95 clients when set to user level access control and try sharing something give this error. "You cannot view a list of users at this time. Please try again later." I belive this is because the rights on the file smbpasswd [the file containing the passwords]
