Greetings samba community, I am running samba version: Version 3.5.11-79. fc14. Trying to join linux servers to the windows 2003 domain by running winbind and smb. I have configured the following smb.conf file which worked but can't seem to understand why the uid is different from the windows side when the windows side has already mapped some kind of uid to the sid. If i were to log

Hello guys, I am setting up a Samba server (based on CentOS 5.6) on my company which will act as a print and file server. Also, it has dropbox installed. I have set up everything regarding to CUPS and Samba itself, but I'm not being able to integrate my shares with Active Directory. All I want is that access control to Samba shares is made through Active Directory users and their

I am migrating the main file servers at work onto a new storage platform based on GPFS. I am using RHEL 5.6 with the samba3x packages (aka 3.5.4) recompiled to get the vfs_gpfs and tsmsm modules, with a couple of extra patches to vfs_gpfs module to bring it 3.5.8 level. It is running with ctdb against Windows AD 2008 R2 domain controllers with all the idmapping been held in the AD. In order to

Hi everyone, I am currently trying to set-up a samba server in my network in order to replace the existing windows samba server. It's been now two weeks that I am struggling with a vicious problem, and I cannot see any issue right now. Before I loose all my hairs, I am sharing with you this problem : hopefully, someone will have a tip for me. The software involved : Server Linux

I think this is a recurrence of an old bug. Running Samba 3.5.4 with CTDB on GPFS 3.4.0.6 with the vfs_gpfs module using CentOS 5.6. It is a vanilla CentOS RPM's with the vfs_gpfs module a self compiled add on. Running with NFSv4 ACL's. Basically what happens is when a user saves a file in Office 2010 (no Office 2007 to test with) with Windows 7 on the Unix side the permissions on the

Hi, I'm trying to convert an old system on Solaris 10 that uses the smbpasswd file authentication method to a system that authenticates against Active Directory. I've managed to get winbind working but of course this just allocates UIDs as it sees fit whereas the smbpasswd file method used the UID from the /etc/passwd file. The user codes on the Solaris server match the user

Hi everone. Ubuntu 12.04 v3.6 clients with winbind joined to 12.04 Samba4 DC Clients: smb.conf [global] realm = polop.site workgroup = POLOP security = ADS wide links = Yes unix extensions = No template shell = /bin/bash winbind enum users = Yes winbind enum groups = Yes idmap uid = 300000-400000 idmap gid = 20000-30000 /etc/nsswitch.conf passwd: compat winbind group: compat

Running with Samba 3.5.4, the Samba3x packages from CentOS 5.6 with added gpfs and tsmsm VFS modules against a GPFS 3.4.0.6 file system. Unix extensions are turned off because otherwise OS X 10.5 messes with group ownership and permissions and shares for "groups" don't work as required. Unfortunately being at a University I don't get to control the environment tightly, unless

I was reviewing the GPFS VFS module this afternoon after I had a request to add Thumbs.db to the hide files option. Now I was under the impression that the GPFS VFS module mapped this through to the Windows attributes on the under lying file system. That is assuming that your GPFS file system is sufficiently recent to support Windows attributes. I did some experimentations with a Terminal

Hello, We have a Red Hat 5.3 SAMBA 3.0.33-3.7 Server that shares a few directories to 4 other servers. The other servers are Red Hat 5.3 and one Solaris 10 server. I configured SAMBA to do the following for each share; Force User: User1 Force Group: Group1 Create Mask: 02770 Security Mask: 02770 Directory Mask: 02770 Directory Security Mask: 02770 Inherit Permissions: Yes Inherit ACLS: Yes

Hi all, I'm trying to set up a samba (3.6.6, debian wheezy 64bit) member server on a 2008R2 domain. I'd like to be able to specify the uidnumbers users get on here in AD but I'm getting really erratic results. I've tried changing various range options, and as far as I can tell it works sometimes, but not others - don't know why. I have 2 users I've specifically set up,

I'm trying to get AD authentication working on a RHEL 5.4 base system I can wbinfo -[ug] and getent {passwd|group} with 3.0.33 Everything appears to work just fine, except I could not actually authenticate... I'd always get failed password. A lot of Googling turned up a bug that indicated that it was impossible to get 3.0.33 to authenticate against a W2K8 AD, so I installed 3.5.4 Same

Dear list, Setup is: Solaris 11 ZFS + Samba 3.5.10 What is the recommended way nowadays of performing strict permissions mapping between Samba and Windows NT 6.1 ? And a more broader question: is it desirable ? As we know ZFS has native NFSv4 ACL's and this would mean that permissions applied on Windows side should have an exact match on the ZFS side. Is it acl_xattr module still needed ?

Hello All, I'm trying to set up linux ssh/shell authentication on a CentOS_6.2 server running smbd version 3.5.10-114 using winbind/smb/pam. We've done this successfully using the tdb backend but wanted users to get the same UID/GID on every machine. Switched to rid for the backend but users still got a foreign number for UID and their default group was always Domain Users. So I'm

All, I'm in the process of migrating a samba server from Solaris 10 (running 3.0.37) to Solaris 11 Express (running 3.5.5). The system is joined to a Win2k3 Active Directory. Migrating the configuration worked fine, the shares are available and everything mostly works as intended. The problem we're having is with the syntax of authentication requests from Windows client machines. On the

I am using Samba 3.6.6 on Debian Wheezy. I want to be able to change www files on my dev server using my macbook. So I setup samba and made a share for the /var/www directory. I added the users bart & root to samba to connect. And connect using command K and then smb://192.168.2.100 (my samba server). As apache uses www-data as a user and group for the www files I use force user and

Samba4 with Linux and Windows clients wanting to get the same home folder data. Hi A college has students arranged with Linux home directories according to which year they belong to and which class within that year, a or b or whatever, they belong to e.g.: /home2/students/year7/year7a/student1 /home2/students/year7/year7a/student2 ... ... /home2/students/year13/year13a/student2500 To get at

Hi All, I have been stuck on this problem for a day or so now and am in need of a bit of help. I am running Samba 3.6.6 with Winbind and all operation and working correctly apart from the UID and GID mapping. There have been a few post on the net regarding this but all the solution listed do not work for me. Here is my smb.conf --------------------------------------------------- [global]

Hi all. Is it just me or there's no way to restrict access to [homes] share to members of an AD group? Or is it treated like an ordinary Unix group via Winbind mapping? If I use "valid users = %S" (to give access to the home only to the owner), every domain user (worse: every user in any trusted domain) can access his/her own share... if path exists. That leads to the second

Hello everyone, Samba 3.6.9 on CentOS 6.4. With "security = ads", winbind doesn't authenticate requests that prepend a not-existent domain to the username. Users that have logged into the domain authenticate transparently to squid with NTLM (format is domain\username), but not users that are logged in locally or into another domain with the same username and password (format is
