similar to: s3fs proposal

We had used Samba 4 alpha 17 for a long time and want to update our server now to Samba 4.0.x. The old Samba versions was using NTVFS and Samba 4.0.x is now using S3FS by default. So, what is the best practice now? Should we stay on NTVFS or should we switch to S3FS? The global part of our smb.conf looks like this: --- [global] interfaces = eth0 netbios name = PDC

Hi, how can I what filer server is currently running in samba4, s3fs or ntvfs? My smb.conf looks like this: server services = s3fs, rpc, nbt, wrepl, ldap, cldap, kdc, drepl, winbind, ntp_signd, kcc, dnsupdate, web dcerpc endpoint servers = epmapper, wkssvc, rpcecho, samr, netlogon, lsarpc, spoolss, drsuapi, dssetup, unixinfo, browser, eventlog6, backupkey, dnsserver Im asking as when looging

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

Hello! I've just built my first samba4 (4.0.5) on an OpenIndiana machine without any problems. But when it comes to the provision step the problems begin. Everything is fine, if I call samba-tool with the --use-ntvfs option. But I want to use samba4 with s3fs because of the support for newer SMB protocol versions. But when I call samba-tool without --use-ntvfs option I got the following:

I've noticed that the samba-tool ntacl sysvolreset --use-s3fs command does not work on a ZFS filesystem on FreeBSD. It does work if sysvol is moved to a volume that is able to be mounted with the acls flag. I will reference a ticket I started with FreeNAS here: https://bugs.freenas.org/issues/4351 As of version 9.2.1.1 s3fs is now the default using the workaround known for FreeBSD.

I have an existing install of Samba4 ( I think beta6 vintage ), which uses ntvfs and bind9. It's only providing AD and Group Policy. I have a seperate file server running 3.6.x. I want to add a server to the domain running the most recent RC. I know they are using internal by default and s3fs for the file shares on sysvol. Can s3fs coexist with ntvfs? Can the internal DNS coexist with

Hi all, I am in the process of finding the best way to use Samba4 as an AD under FreeBSD and ZFS. The following is based on own research, google, mail archives, a bit of source code etc. So please correct me if I am wrong. 1. ZFS is using NFSv4 ACLs. 2. NFSv4 ACLs are modelled with NTFS (Windows) ACLs in mind. 3. Samba4 started with a new ntvfs file server but that was abandoned (or

Hi, I am trying to create a build on CircleCi with smaba4 AD. It seems the filesytem doesn't support ACL's, which s3fs requires. I get the folowing error: ?ERROR(<class 'samba.provision.ProvisioningError'>): Provision failed - ProvisioningError: Your filesystem or build does not support posix ACLs, which s3fs requires.? Try the mounting the filesystem with the

OK, but how can you be sure that something you are

For now it seems due to your smb.conf that you are not using the samba internal DNS server. It's not a must have, but samba does not provide dns. NetBIOS name should be equal to your

Hi Everybody, I'm stumped. I'm pretty sure I've tried everything to get this to work. I'm trying to join my CentOS 6 server to my Server 2008 AD Domain. I'm using SerNet's samba4 packages: [root at files ~]# samba -V Version 4.1.4-SerNet-RedHat-7.el6 I've done the xattr and acl tests and they all come out just fine. So I don't think it has to do with ACLs

Hi , We migrated to AD account in a Ubuntu 16.04 (Samba 4.3.11)and came across issues with user shares. Some of the users were able to access the shares and some were not. The server in question has both AD and File and we followed the samba wiki to enable the Windows ACL To migrate , we ran the following samba-tool domain classicupgrade --dbdir=/var/lib/samba.PDC/dbdir --realm=lin.GROUP

Hi list, I'm attempting my first ever install of Samba4, my requirements are pretty simple: I just need the quickest easiest way to get a standalone server for use as a Windows file server with password aging and password complexity rules. My OS is FreeBSD 10.2 running on ZFS, samba from binary package samba43-4.3.3. I've had a google for some guides and I've been using the

Hello, I am currently trying to get a Samba 4.5.1 environment set up for testing and I am unable to get samba to request a new password from a windows user. The error that I get, is in Japanese, so I don't have the exact translation, however it is along the lines of... Your user password must be changed before logging in for the first time. However it does not give me the prompt to do so
