Hello all, My Samba server has undergone a series of migration. And recently, I found that the newer accounts fails to login to older computers in the network. All PCs in my network runs Window XP. And I'm running Samba 3.4.7 here as PDC. When I login with a new account called "guest2", the computer says the password of my login is incorrect. What is my problem? What should I

This is a repost. Original sent last Friday afternoon received no response. Any ideas would be appreciated. Should I try Samba 4? =-=-=-=-= I have a server which will accept a file sharing connection from a FreeBSD workstation using smbclient, but not from a Vista workstation. The server also performs as a NAT gateway. Upstream network configuration is by DHCP (dhclient), the downstream side is

Hi I've talked about this in other messages but have a feeling it might have got lost amongst the other symptoms we were discussing. I had a Redhat 9 server on which I'd installed Samba 3.5.6 (built from source). I had it authenticating successfully against a windows 2008 active directory server. I then upgraded the Redhat server to RHEL5.3, on which I installed Samba 3.5.7 (and

I'm getting a little closer and understanding how the logs, etc work. I can log onto a Samba share, can read and write to my home directory, but I'm concerned about trying to get the file share Staff to work - want it to be read and write to the Group named Staff. I have set up the group and added myself to the group If I do a smbldap-groupshow Staff - I get sudo smbldap-groupshow

Hello, we are currently in the process of migrating Windows machines to Ubuntu 10.04. For now, these machines act as samba clients in a Windows domain (which is controlled also by a samba PDC), and are itself sharing files via SMB/CIFS. The clients are - from time to time and with no apparent reason - losing their domain membership. When this happens, access to shares on the PDC still seems to

Hi, I have a peculiar problem with my Samba installation. I have a directory with lots of files that I want to make available via Samba. I can connect just fine, but I quickly noticed a lot of files seemed to be missing. After some testing I found out that the directory listing was simple cut off, right in the middle of a filename even. I created a test-directory with 1000 random files in

System Summary: centos 6.2 samba 3.5 smbldap-tools 0.9.6 openldap 2.4.23 Hello, I am installing smb 3.5 on a CentOS 6.2 host using smbldap-tools. I've previously installed a similar configuration on RHEL4 using smb 3.0 but CentOS now uses nss-pam-ldapd and nslcd instead of nss_ldap, so the configurations cannot be moved straight across. Currently, when I attempt to connect to an smb share

I am having trouble getting samba-3.0.24-11 setup as a PDC with an ldap backend using FDS on a FC6 test box.

Using LDAP and the smbldap-tools.

Okay, first the admisssions: I'll admit that I haven't been following the development as closely as I probably should have. And I'll admit in this case I might not be using Samba in the most efficient way possible. Also, I'm not 100% sure if I'm encountering a bug or just a seriously stupid misconfiguration issue. And I'm still collecting data on exactly what happened.

Hi all I have a samba 3.0.21c with ldap backend , i have about 100 users connecting to my domain. i have a linux system which acts as a file server (prjsrv01) where i have declared 2 shares. projects and datalib.

I'm building a replacement samba 3.5.6 domain controller to replace an old 3.0 one. Some other things are changing too. Our user accounts are now in LDAP rather than flat files (although the machine trust accounts will remain in a flat file), but that should be hidden from samba as it's going to be done through NSS. The smbpasswd file is a TDB file and will remain so. Our users
