similar to: Configuration of idmap_ldap "No backend defined"

Hello everyone, We've been running Samba for years, and with the exception of IDMAP, we've been very happy. Well, now we have a real need to keep this information in a shared DB, so I'm trying to set up the idmap_ldap plugin. I *think* I have lookups working correctly-- at least, I can see that Samba is contacting the LDAP directory. But since there's nothing actually

Hi I have a new Samba 3.6.10 server running on Solaris 10. The server is a member of the local Active Directory (which I'll call "DOMAIN" in this email). Unix username resolution is via NIS. All domain users have NIS usernames as well.Winbind is running to allow SMBD to perform sid>uid mapping and I have setup idmap_nss. I am not using winbind in /etc/nsswitch.conf as NIS

Hi, We have just managed to get winbind behaving correctly in a Samba domain with Samba member servers with help from Sernet. It is now not adding spurious entries for the "own domain". However, a member server keeps trying to add group mappings that already exist in the LDAP idmap ou. This would not be a problem, apart from the fact that every time it fails adding an entry, the

Can I deploy software/applications through group or domain policy with samba?

I'm trying to use the LDAP backend for the idmap database but I just can't seem to get it to work. There really is rather pathetic documentation out there on how to implement this. I've basically got my ldap server setup with an OU called smb and another OU under it called idmap. Here is my smb.conf file: [global] workgroup = HQ server string = Theo's Samba Server

Can anyone tell me what might be going on here?

Hello, My apologies for my bad english, this is not my birth langage and I'm still learning it. I'm trying to configure a Samba server to simply use LDAP backend for authenticate users. Just that, I don't care of PDC/BDC, etc.The samba schema is present in the LDAP, and in the users profile. The samba server have the same SID as the domain. I can log to my samba server using LDAP

I am getting a lot of winbind errors in my logs on one server. Any idea's?

Hello, I have problem with idmap configuration.

Hello I'm hoping someone can provide some insight, sample snippet from smb.conf and the samba log. Password authentication is working & succeeding, complains about an invalid SID which I know is the trust relationship that is formed between server and client, this is a duplicate ldap database from a samba domain controller. On the topic, anyone have a good book to recommend on Samba, I

Hey Jeremy, Thanks for the advice. I followed your suggestion collected the logged information for a single connection attempt (i.e. smbclient //servername/sharename -U username); I've included the log data below (in the postscript). It looks like Samba is still looking for a Unix user account and not finding one. I should mention that it seems that I am able to authenticate as the user; the

Hi all I am trying to run samba-3.0.28 on a solaris 10 sparc machine, as a member server for an AD 2003R2. I use nss_ldap-254. I compile samba with: GCC_EXEC_PREFIX=/opt/csw/gnu/ LDFLAGS="-L/opt/csw/lib" CPPFLAGS="-I/opt/csw/include" ./configure --prefix=/opt/samba --with-acl-support --with-quotas --with-included-popt --with-privatedir=/opt/samba/etc/samba/private

Hi, im trying to setup a password policy with samba and openldap. while lockout works perfect on openldap it looks like it does not work with my samba. Ive set "sambaLockoutThreshold" to 3 and "sambaLockoutDuration" to -1 (lockout forever) within the Domain-Object in LDAP. So i expect whenever a windows user does 3 false logon attemps his samba account will be LOCKED

Im not sure if this is the place to post this, but winbind just crashed. This is a CentOS machine with the included samba version- 3.3.8. Is this a known bug? or do i need to change something?

Hi, all, We are using Samba 3.0.10 with an LDAP backend. It's been working fine for a long time. One strange thing that has come up today : I cannot add 1 specific domain user to the local Administrator group of Windows servers that are also in the domain. Adding the user to the admin group on a workstation works just fine. Adding other users to the admin group on the Windows servers

Hi We have some Samba servers using LDAP (389 DS) as backend. In the LDAP server, we have defined some policies to make the passwords stronger. When a user tries to change his password (Control-Alt-Del), this message appears in the LOGs: ==> /var/log/samba/xptest <== [2010/06/28 12:26:26, 2] auth/auth.c:check_ntlm_password(309) check_ntlm_password: authentication for user [10000001S]

I have a Synology NAS array appliance. It is linux based and uses samba for file sharing. Normally the config is done via a gui interface but you can ssh to the array. The domain controllers are running Samba 3.6.x in classic domain mode. I have member servers running 3.6.x and 4.3.8. no problem. I recently updated the Synology "OS." The current version of samba is
