Hi all, I just setup a Samba 3.3.14, with an ldap back-end. I migrated the ldap back end and samba shares from my old samba server. I've found when adding a machine (WinXP) to the domain, I get the following error on XP: The following error occurred attempting to join the domain "Blah.com": A device attached to the system is not functioning. in my /var/log/messages I have: Dec

Hello After spending quite a few hours building a completely new domain with samba as a pdc for a local school I now have everything working(shares, printers, multiuser addscripts, etc). The only problem I have is that it is impossible to force user to change password on next logon from pdbedit. It is possible to set this trough usrmgr.exe but its not really convenient when adding multiple users

Hi, I'm running 3.0.33-3.29.el5_5.1 .. migrating from 3.0.21a with an LDAP back-end. I've use slapadd to import the LDIF file I've exported from my original samba server, but it seems like samba isn't grabbing the Primary Group SID from the ldif file. For Example: dn: uid=chris,ou=Users,dc=orgon,dc=com sambaSID: S-1-5-21-3318375643-2463009161-752822123-3028 sambaPrimaryGroupSID:

I have been working to get pdbedit to expire passwords. I have seen several bugs related to pdbedit (bugzilla bug 4630 for example) on 3.0.25 so I upgraded to 3.0.25a, the latest Samba version as of this writing. What I am trying to do is set a particular user's password to expire on a certain date. If that can't be done, the ability to set it to expire "now" would be my

I have been having some problems since I updated from Samba 3.0.23 to 3.0.25b. I have installed the latest version of smbldap-tools but I am still not able to make certain changes to a user's account. I have created a new user named JROLFE. After I set up a new user, I will set it so they are required to change their password when they first login. I usually do this through LDAP Account

When the administrator has reset the password for a user with smbpasswd, our users must be forced to change the password. We have tried with pdbedit -P "user must logon to change password -C 1", but nothing happens. The user can logon with the password given from the administrator and is not forced to change it. Thanks for help regards MW

If I set up a room of Win XP Pro w/SP2 systems, hardened via local policy and gpedit.msc, and add them to a samba domain running from an unpatched, out-of-box install of RHEL 5.0, how will the local XP policies differ from any changes I make to pdbedit on the Samba side? Which takes priority/preference? Thanks. Scott

Hello, I'm using samba 3.0.24 and Debian 4.0. As a password backend I use smbpasswd. I set password policy: Length - 8 signs, Password history - 3, password complexity - script, maximum password age - 30 days The "password length" and complexity works, but "password history" and "maximum password age" doesn't. I tried do the same on test machine

Hi everyone... Can somebody help me? I've sent this last Sunday but nobody has replied.

I'm trying to set account control flags and

I've got a cluster of Samba servers with security=user and a ctdb passdb backend. I need to keep the passwords for the users in sync with another system, which will pass me userid and password for each change and reset. My question is what is the simplest way to do the password reset for a user as root on one of the Samba servers. I need to allow the user to change their password

Greetings, I am running samba-3.0.10-1.4E.9 installed from rpm on CentOS 4.4. I have it configured as a PDC. It is using the /passdb backend = tdbsam/ backend. I am using /pdbedit/ to make some configuration changes to user passwords. I would like to expire a users password, so that they are required to change it the next time they log in. From all that I have read in on-line resources

I have Samba and LDAP up and running, but I'm having problems editing the password policy using pdbedit. (I'm running 3.0.22) I've had a look at the man page for pdbedit but I don't really fully understand what it does in relation to passwd backends. Does pdbedit update just one backend and expect a user to export the updates to other backends? I think I've set up ldap as

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I run a ldap backednd smaba 3.0.21c domain. I have 1 PDC, and 6 BDC's. On all the BDC's I can run 'pdbedit -Lw' but I get an error on the PDC. I turned the debuging up to 5, here's the output: pdbedit -Lw INFO: Current debug levels: all: True/5 tdb: False/0 printdrivers: False/0 lanman: False/0 smb: False/0

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 samba-3.0.2 installed into /usr/local/samba/ by means of cd /usr/src/samba-3.0.2/source ./configure --with-acl-support make make install When I run pdbedit -L I get a segfault: oberon root # pdbedit -L Segmentation fault (core dumped) This occurs after samba of unknown version from these two: 3.0.1pre2 3.0.2 has been reinstalled with samba-3.0.2 (gdb) bt #0 0x400f9bf9 in free

Dear Gaiseric, Yes, according to testparm the backend is a plain text file : smb passwd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd passdb backend = smbpasswd Therefore I wonder where the User SIDs are stored ?! About "getent passwd", yes all users (active users at least) have a Unix account. About the users that are missing in pdbedit, there is not error in smb.log when they log in. (But I

[Environment: Samba 3.0.2a with "passdb backend = tdbsam" ] I want to be able to reset user passwords from the command line on the Unix server, without knowledge of the existing password. If I was using an smbpasswd file, I could call the "smbpasswd" command and it would edit the file. But with a backend, that's not available to me. The "pdbedit" command will

And I must admin that I really don't know where to search. Does someone knows where pdbedit is reading the information displayed ?
