similar to: Samba User authentication from external LDAP server

Hello, I'm running a Samba 3.5.6 standalone server on FreeBSD 8.1, with XP and 7 clients. I can't get Samba to syncronize Windows & NIS passwords, in fact it's behaving strangely from what i think: Relevant (i think) parts of smb.conf: encrypt passwords = yes passdb backend = tdbsam pam password change = yes unix password sync = yes passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd

1. yes, I tried these lines and in the logs, there was a failure in response 3 "match no". When I manually ran smbldaa-passwd.pl in xterm, I saw that there's never a "successfully" meesage when the password is changed with success, I looked the code (luckily it's Perl ;o)), and I didn't see any "print "succes"" or "print "password

hi all, I am looking for a cgi script which can be used to change the smbpasswd via web browser. Anyone done this already ?. Any pointers will he appreciated much.

Hi, I just got a comment from one of my IBM support engineeres that there is a problem with auth-passwd.c only calling authenticate() once. He claims it should potentially be called several times, in case several authetication methods are defined in /etc/security/user. F.ex.: SYSTEM = "NIS and DCE" Suggested (untested) patch should look like: ----------------- cut

I have Linux Server 7.0 running Samba with 1 nic ip 199.168.1.2 and the Win2k server with 2 Nic one having the DHCP ip from the DSL and other being my internal 199.168.1.1, Now I installed samba and setup a smb.conf file smbd and nmbd runs fine also testparam doe's not show any errors and when I run the smbclient on the same machine It's authenticates fine, but when I try to access

Hi, I am trying to compile the Hello World pass (described at http://llvm.org/docs/WritingAnLLVMPass.html#basiccode) in an LLVM Project and I get an error, 'no match for ‘operator<<’ at line llvm::cerr << "*Hello: *" << F.getName() << "\n"; But when I looked up in the LLVM API Documentation, I think "<<" operator is not overloaded

I''m trying to get a Rico LiveGrid working, and I am a bit stuck on how to accomplish this. I have a page that successfully queries a controller and updates a <div> containing a table. I have two versions of the action; one uses the render_partial to return a rendered version of that table, and the other returns an XML-RPC document, and this is where I hit a snag. The Rico LiveGrid

Hi, I am writing an LLVM Pass and I would like to know how would I do the following: 1. I have a function foo, and I need to get all the call points calling this function in each Function of the Module. The only way I can think of is to iterate over the BasicBlocks of each Function, look for all the Call Instructions and check if the called function is foo. I was wondering if there is any other

Greetings all I'm running Samba 3.0 on an Ubuntu box as a PDC and I'm having trouble changing passwords with XP clients - here's my smb.conf http://pastebin.com/m1bb6d4a6 I've played with a variety of "passwd chat" settings but no joy.

Hi, I am using puppet 2.7.20 server on linux and windows client with same version of puppet.

Hi. I can't do cached logons in our new samba server. I had a dead crashed W2k server quickly replaced by samba-3. That meant create a new domain, restore backups and add all the PCs to the domain. It was impossible to ressurrect the old MS server. Anyway I'm facing a problem about cached logons. There is no way to make it work. I've been reading all the entries in the mailing list

I think your problem is this: > passwd: files winbind > group: files winbind > shadow: files winbind nis the correct modification for nsswitch is passwd: files winbind group: files winbind shadow: files nis DON'T put winbind in shadow line! then try with "getenet passwd" or "getent group" and you should see all users in /etc/passwd and after them domain

I want to remove the leading and training spaces for most of the resources in my rails application For a new POST request, rails does the xml parsing and passes the params hash to the controller. Some of the parameters have leading and/or trailing whitespaces which are causing problems (e.g. new resources being created rather than using the old ones). I don''t want to put the code in all

This is just a quick question, what is the difference between "+" and "@" when using groups for say valid users or write list ex valid users = +staff valid users = @staff -- Kent L. Nasveschuk <kent@wareham.k12.ma.us>

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hi, I''ve got several replies, thank you for them. Let me summarize: o Many people say there is a PAMified version of ssh available at ftp://ftp.replay.com/pub/crypto/redhat/SRPMS (the source) ftp://ftp.replay.com/pub/crypto/redhat/i386 (Intel binaries) (there are analogous paths for the other architectures).

I have the following on a network: 1) RHEL 5.0 Server acting as NIS and Samba domain controller 2) CentOS 5.x machines on NIS network 3) Win XP machines on Samba domain When I create an account for someone, I need to first type adduser new_person -d /home/new_person then passwd new_person, then cd /var/yp and make. ? ?Then smbpasswd -a new_person. ? Thus, two different databases. On

Has there been any thought given to implementing authentication via an LDAP 'bind', rather than by a password lookup and hash comparison? doing a bind would obviate the need to make the passwords readable by the dovecot process and would lend itself to improved security.

If a host is running NIS (passwd file ends in +::0:0:::) authentication, will dovecot be able to authenticate with auth_userdb = passwd directly and automagically or do you have to do a ypcat passwd > pwfile periodically to generate a passwd file that dovecot can use? ?
