Hello to everyone >From one day to another my internal dns server in samba4 stopped forwarding queries. It was resolving well my domain. I had to restart samba4 then it worked fine. Cheers, Felix.

I followed the Howto http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba4/HOWTO Using: -Samba4 alpha15 -Bind9.8.0 When I added an XP PC (192.168.123.244) to my domain I got this in syslog: May 11 12:04:18 samba4 named[10705]: client 192.168.123.244#1061: update 'mydomain.com/IN' denied May 11 12:04:18 samba4 named[10705]: tkey.c:486: ENSURE(result == (((1) << 16) + 28) || result == 0) failed,

Thanks a lot for your answers, Matthieu and Christopher. It makes me happy to know that you guys don't forget to answer the questions of samba users. My first solution was

Hello: I'm using samba4.1.0pre1. I'm having some issues with users whose cn field length is shorter than 5 characters in specific with the openfire server (jabber server). It was working fine when I had a windows 2003 server as a domain controller and once I migrated to samba4, users with short cn fields get an authentication error: Not authorized. Is there any limitation on the length

Recently I migrated to samba4 in my company. So far so good. debian 6 samba4.1.0pre1 bind9.9.1-P1 (working pretty well. it even updates the reverse zone and no problems at all with the forwarder) ntp-4.2.6p5 All services authenticating with samba4: mail (postfix + dovecot + squirrelmail), jabber (openfire), proxy (squid), even MS Sql server 2000, Net Support Manager and GFI Endpoint Security.

Hi I have s4 with bind9 working fine. I see that it sets up a forward zone without using zone files (is that the dlz bit?) Is it possible to get it to produce a reverse zone? Thanks, Steve pp lcb

I followed this http://linuxcostablanca.blogspot.com/2012/01/samba-4-ubuntu.html and got dynamic dns updates working in forward zone. any ideas to get it working in the reverse zone too? By the way, nice article Steve. Best regards, Felix.

I've just installed samba4 beta 7 with defaults and everything went OK. As I download bind9.9.1 tarball and compiled it I had to follow steve's advice: to declare we'll be using DLZ_DLOPEN_VERSION 2 in /samba-master/source4/dns_server/dlz_minimal.h /*#ifdef BIND_VERSION_9_8 #define DLZ_DLOPEN_VERSION 1 #else #define DLZ_DLOPEN_VERSION 2 #endif */ #define DLZ_DLOPEN_VERSION 2 I

Hi, We installed a samba4 AD controller using Gpo for a small group of users (5 users), everything is OK. (Samba4 beta 7 on Ubuntu 12.04) We installed another Samba4 AD controller as a BDC of the first one with the command "samba-tool domain join" with succes. After checking this new installation, we saw that the sysvol share was not replicated from the PDC and all the Policies are

Hello: I would like to know what is wrong in my configuration. I can't see this server in network neighborhood. samba 3.5.6 joined to my active directory domain. [global] # message command = /bin/sh -c '/usr/bin/linpopup "%f" "%m" %s; rm %s' & security = ADS netbios name = dos realm = EPEPM.CUPET.CU password server = ad.epepm.cupet.cu workgroup =

Reading Whatsnew.txt in samba I understand that If I use s3fs, as it is set by default in the provision step, I won't be able to modify GPOs later, right? So I have a couple of questions: - What's the advantage of using s3fs over ntvfs in new installations? - If I'm planning to deploy a new Domain, probably needing to change GPOs later, should I select ntvfs??? Best regards, Felix

Hi! I have recently upgraded samba4 to the latest GIT build. I have run upgradeprovision according to upgrading-samba4.txt instructions. All seems to be well, but when i try to access Group Policy Objects from gpmc utility on windows i get the following error message: --------------------------- Group Policy Management --------------------------- The permissions for this GPO in the SYSVOL folder

I have read in the samba http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba_AD_DC_HOWTO that you can start samba just typing samba at the command promt, but what are the commands to stop and restart the service? thanks

I provisioned using the defaults. So now I'm using the internal DNS server. Since I've been having some issues with it (see Internal dns server stops forwarding) I would like to change to bind9, but now I don't have the files samba4 creates to use with it because I started using the internal dns server. How can I switch from internal dns server to bind9??? Cheers, Felix.

Could you, please, give me some clue on how to configure dlz in Bind to work with Samba4? I installed samba4 from git check out from a week ago, then I provisioned it but DNS is not working. Best regards, Felix.

Hello. How can I have my windows clients synchronized with my Samba4 domain controller without using startup scripts?? I've played with Group Policies the same way they are configured when a w2k3 server is used and I couldn't make it this way. I also tried installing ntpd. I'm using Samba4 alpha 15 in a Debian Lenny Box. Any suggestions?? Thanks in advance. Regards, Felix.

This is a freshly provisioned Samba 4.0.0-rc5 installation. I provisioned the domain and created shares in the configuration file to match an existing Samba 3.5.x installation that we're moving away from (or at least, that's the plan...) for various reasons. I then moved all the contents of the shares over from the old server to the new server via rsync, including home directories and

git checkout dd5868d when I try to provision I get the following: Populating ForestDnsZones partition bin/tdbbackup: /home/samba-master/bin/shared/private/libtdb.so: version `SAMBA_4.0.0ALPHA18_DEVELOPERBUILD' not found (required by bin/tdbbackup) Failed to setup database for BIND, AD based DNS cannot be used Traceback (most recent call last): File "./source4/setup/provision",

I must set up a backup server for failover and have used tdbbackup to create backup files from the functioning primary server. I then copied the files to the backup server and used tdbbackup to restore all the databases, along with copying the smb.conf and other text files from /etc/samba. This does not seem to work and I was hoping someone could assist. Primary server is RHEL 5.4 with Samba
