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:

Hello, Since I migrated from Sparc Solaris/Samba 3.0.22 to Intel SLES 10/Samba 3.0.25c, after re-inserting a machine in the samba domain, the smbpasswd LCT field is not any more updated. Does any one have an idea on what's going wrong ? Thank you for your help. LG

I posted a message some weeks ago with no answer about the problem that after re-inserting a machine in the samba domain, the smbpasswd LCT field is not any more updated. - the machine NT password hash is updated but LCT no. - this problem does not occur when updating a user password - this problem does not seem to be OS dependent since the problem is the same on Solaris and SLES (compiled by me

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.

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

My message is first in english (hope you'll understand it), et en fran?ais pour ceux qui le causent. --- ENGLISH --- Hi everybody, I've got a matter with my Samba server supplied by Debien 2.2r0. testparm returns there's no problem in smb.conf.

Dear all, We recently upgraded an old samba 3.0.10 to 3.4.6 due to broken quota when moving from Veritas to NFS mounts from a Cellera EMC. Anyway, Our samba passwd backend is a smbpasswd file. This file is generated from a database. Recently we see that some PC clients manage to change the LANMAN field in the smbpasswd file. e.g.

Hi, Can anybody confirm the following problem: Sequence: bash-2.05# grep ankerpos /usr/samba.moonrock/private/smbpasswd ankerpos:921:XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX:XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX:[U ]:LCT-0 bash-2.05# /usr/samba.moonrock/bin/smbpasswd -c /usr/samba.moonrock/lib/smb.conf ankerpos New SMB password: Retype new SMB password: bash-2.05# grep ankerpos

This is really bizarre. Running Samba 3.0.4 on SuSE 9.1. The password backend is smbpasswd. Each user has a system and samba account and everything has worked as expected until recently. But now, every new user I create is unable to log into Samba server (older users are still able to log in). Inspecting log.smbd the following messages are displayed: [2004/07/22 11:44:56, 2]

Hallo, I'm trying to convert smbpasswd to passdb.tdb. cd /etc/samba/private # (where smbpasswd lies) pdbedit -i smbpasswd -e tdbsam:/etc/samba/private/passdb.tdb converts all human users, but it converts (or transfers) no machine account. In "smbpasswd" are many entries beginning with (p.e.) mac001$ for these accounts, pdbedit -L -v | grep -i mac shows

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I have a really odd question i hope someone can help mee with.

I can not connect to my linux box from my Mac. I get a 'Could not connect to the server because the name or password is not correct' error. I'm not sure where to check to even see what username/pwd samba is using. If I open up my smbpasswd file, it looks like this: drrl:501:xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:[UD]:LCT-402FFFE4: Is there

Hello, I have an older standalone Samba 3.0.14 system (security = user) with local users and local home directories and shares. This uses another 'legacy' system for adding linux users accounts. I then use the pam plug-in pam_smbpass <pam_smbpass.so migrate> to create a smbpasswd entry for users. The UID's up to 8765 are currently in use ie: etc/passwd:

Hello, After I added a user with smbpasswd -a user, I get a rather strange entrie in smbpasswd: user:1012:lmhast:nthash:[UX ]:LCT-00000000: What does the X mean in "UX"? Why is the time (last change time) not correct? I'm running samba 2.2.2 on a RH 7.1 machine. UPDATE: This problem does not seem to occur with samba 2.2.1a. Any ideas? Werner

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.

Hello List. We have a number of working ADS servers. One of out clients is not in the Kerberized domain so there users log in via NIS. Having looked at the options for enabling NIS authentication I have decided to use the smbpasswd. Now I can't get that to work. After using smbpasswd to create two users, one created locally, in the /etc/passwd, and one that exists already in NIS. Not only

We've recently started using samba-3.0.23d on Mandriva 2007.0 linux systems and we've noticed a change in behaviour of smbpasswd when a non-root user tries to change their password from "NO PASSWORD". Here's an example smbpasswd entry (all one line): testuser:12345:NO PASSWORDXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX: NO PASSWORDXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX:[NU ]:LCT-00000000: The

Hi all, I'm wondering what about machine accounts (WinXP) by migrating from Samba 2.2.8 with authentication backend /etc/smbpasswd to Samba 3.0.4 with ldapsam. Is it possible just to take NT hash from smbpasswd and paste it to ldap record as sambaNTPassword? I'm not able to login from machine vs3 to new domain. My configuration files and log files follow. The Samba-SID is the same

Hello everybody, I don't understand why the uid isn't correct in the /etc/samba/smbpasswd file. My OS is Ubuntu 10.04. Some precise explanations below: #----------------------------------------------- # smbd -V Version 3.4.7 # testparm -s /etc/samba/smb.conf Load smb config files from /etc/samba/smb.conf rlimit_max: rlimit_max (1024) below minimum Windows limit (16384) Processing

I am trying to setup a /etc/smbpasswd file for my users. I use the following command to create the /etc/smbpasswd file cat /etc/passwd | ./mksmbpasswd.sh > /etc/smbpasswd Redhat 7.1, samba 2.2.5 I thought that users could log onto the linux system and simply type the command: smbpasswd and it would ask for the new password. But it asks for an OLD password which never works. I thought
