similar to: Samba vs Linux file permissions

I seem to be having a bit of a brain fade with regard to permissions in samba. I have a share with several folders owned by different groups: drwxrws--- 13 root accounts 4.0K Jun 7 12:12 Accounts drwxrws--- 16 ian accounts 4.0K Jun 7 11:24 Administration drwxrws--- 14 accounts users 4.0K Apr 22 12:05 Downloads drwxrwsr-x 7 ian users 4.0K Mar 22 13:51

Hi, I am in the process of migrating our windows workstations to a samba domain. Here is the problem: When creating the domain user I put every user additionalyy in the domain admin group so that he/she can copy his old files on the local profile to his new domain account. Then after this is done I put them to the domain users group but some (!) of the user the lose then access to the

Hello List, we have installed samba Version 3.0.20-0.1-SUSE. when I'm entering > net getlocalsid I get > SID for domain <netbios name> is: S-1-5-21-4166838278-3756557259-2095403906 entering > net getlocalsid <domain name> returns > SID for domain <domain name> is: S-1-5-21-2018781741-1218799122-1862565094 Does this mean that the pdc itself is not in the domain

Hey all, I have a functioning Samba server in my test lab. All of my must-haves are met. My problem really boils down to a minor nuisance. Basically, when I log the test users in and open My Documents I only see one folder: My Music. Not that I really care but curiosity is killing me here and I can't figure out why the My Pictures folder is not present also. On top of that users love

I've been testing DFS roots and I'm finding that while Vista and 2008 Server clients can connect with no problems, Windows XP Pro and 2003 Server clients fail. This seems like it's the wrong way round - Samba usually has more difficulties with recent Windows versions than older ones - but I can only assume that there's some registry/policy change between the versions. If anybody

This might be more inclusive if I said, Linux Permissions vs POSIX ACLs vs vfs_xattr. I have recently begun to discover the power and flexibility of using POSIX ACLs (by mounting my EXT3/4 filesystems with the acl option). This solved alot of security permissions issues between Samba and Linux groups of users. As I have delved into this deeper and begun using the VFS object, vfs_xattr, things

They are the glue that connects Samba to nsswitch and allows 'getent passwd username' to work. Without

Hello, In summary, i appear to have encountered a bug when attempting to restore files using rsync 3.0.0pre4 (matt) with stored ACLs (via --fake-super). The ACL information appears to be correctly stored as xattrs on the backup server; however, when i attempt to restore while preserving the ACL data, i get the following error: ERROR: out of memory in get_xattr_data [sender] Questions: 1.

Thanks for the reply, Besides the problem with source4/lib/messaging/messaging_handlers.c, Good to hear that selftest is actively used, then do I understand it right that 'make test' should succeed? My bigger problem is that it failed with lots of errors. This must be a problem with my build, then, but since this is a fresh tarball I am a bit puzzled. I would appreciate some hint on

Hello guys! I'm using samba 3.2.4 (binaries from samba.org) on SLES9+sp3. I am building a PDC with LDAP support (i am attaching my config files), I'm also using ldapsam:trusted and ldapsam:editposix. Although I am setting the account lock after 3 failed tries in usrmgr, and verified that the parameters are actually set in the LDAP, no locking occurs. I started thinking that it was my

I groupapped the domadmins group in linux to ntgroup="Domain Admins" but instead of mapping to the SID number ending in 512 it's creating a new SID number endind in 2025 mapped to domadmins... Does anybody knows why??? It worked in the previous server. This is the command I execute net groupmap add ntgroup="Domain Admins" unixgroup=domadmin If I use the rid=512 option I

We had a user quit recently. Three days ago I copied his entire Maildir folder to another user to that user's Maildir/.JoesEmail. I changed ownership and made the permission 'chmod -R og-rwx .', just like all the other files/directories of the new owner. This didn't work to show the new folder. Today, in his Thunderbird client, I subscribed to the 'JoesEmail' folder. I

Hello all, I am experiencing a (consistent, reproducible) condition whereby rsync is hanging indefinitely at the following stage : generate_files phase=1 The condition does not occur if --dry-run is specified - only when the run is "for real". Finally, i can scp the files without problems, so it is not a general connection issue, nor is it a problem with permissions (everything is

In the course of tracking down a problem in Samba v2.0.4a, I set "debuglevel=3" and noticed something strange in the log file. While attempting to find the netlogon script, a number of variations on the name are tried (e.g. for Windows, it's *.COM, *.EXE, *.BAT). Here's the strangeness: the file NETLOGON"BAT is also looked for. Yes, that's a quotation mark in place

Hello, I have run into problems in the past where a package has been added to our yum repository, and a (new) class has been pushed to install that package, but puppet fails because the yum db on the target machine is too stale, and thus isn''t aware of the existence of the new package. My question is this : what have other Puppet admins done in order to ensure that a target machine
