Hello all, we currently do have a problem with samba 3.3.4 on AIX 5.3. We have set up the samba system to integrate in our AD Domain. Integration was successfull (net ads join), wbinfo executes with parameters -ugt without any problems. Our smb.conf content follows at the end of this mail. We have defined just one share as follows: [smbtest] writeable = yes path = /gpfs/fbb/ls/cip valid users

Hello everyone! After running Samba on several machines for some years, I just came accross a rather strange problem. The short story is that the special user home shares are readable, but not writeable. Here's the long story: The system is a freshly set-up Debian Squeeze, right out of the box. This is the Samba config: -------------------------------- 8<

Hi all, I'm having a problem with an upgrade of Samba running on a Redhat4 Update 4 system. The default installation provides only 3.0.10 which doesn't include the privilege model or a number of fixes including some in 3.0.21a and 3.0.23 which it looks like we'll need. The system runs in PDC mode with user accounts in an ldap database. On a test system which I'm using to

hello, there are 3 problems i've been having with samba for a very long time. i was hoping to get them resolved once and for all. my smb.conf file is attached. 1) my printer is shared via samba and i'm using the cups print system. i can see the printer from my win2k and winxp machines, but it says "unable to connect, access denied". how do i remedy this problem? 2)

I do not understand the following output. The actual command and error are: juliet:/mnt # smbmount //compaq/mastertools /mnt/dos -o username=alan password=eunice Password: 10300: tree connect failed: ERRSRV - ERRbadpw (Bad password - name/password pair in a Tree Connect or Session Setup are invalid.)

Hello, I use cvs to download samba with pserver.samba.org i get the 2.0.4b version ! where can i get the last stable release (2.0.7) and alpha versions with cvs and anonymous ? Thanks Guy Roussin

Hi all, recently I asked for help with a problem Samba had to write files (http://lists.samba.org/pipermail/samba/2002-November/085003.html, http://lists.samba.org/pipermail/samba/2002-November/085083.html). Since that hasn't solved, and since it occurs regardless of changes of the smb.conf, I'd like to post some passages of the smb log file (log level 4) of the attempt to copy a file to

Hi, I'm using SuSE 8.2 and I got the source for samba 3.0.2a and I tried to install it. ./configure (w/o any arguments) went ok so I type make and it gives me the following errors: Linking bin/smbd auth/pampass.o(.text+0x59): In function `smb_pam_error_handler': : undefined reference to `pam_strerror' auth/pampass.o(.text+0xcb6): In function `smb_pam_end': : undefined reference

Hi, I have just upgraded a server from Samba 2 to Samba 3 and some of the Windows clients are taking a long time to authenticate shares (1 or 2 minutes). Eventually the username/password box appears and then when you enter a correct password, all is fine - it is just the initial authentication. This is a simple UNIX password Samba server (with NIS) and I have set it to not use encrypted

I'm using FC8 Server with Samba 3.0.30-fc8 and have an erratic problem assecing the share.

Hello! I was wondering if it's possible to make Windows NT and Samba 3 work togheter. I found an old question with the same problem I have. Samba 3 is not authenticating WinNT machines. My smb.conf is: [global] workgroup = DESQ-TESTE server string = Teste (Samba %v) interfaces = 143.106.19.25/255.255.255.192, 127. bind interfaces only = Yes encrypt passwords = No password server =

Hello, we migrate from Samba 2.2 to Samba 3.020b. We have the problem now, that some clients can not connect to the Samba Server. In the log there are messages like that: [2006/02/23 08:49:20, 2] smbd/sesssetup.c:setup_new_vc_session(704) setup_new_vc_session: New VC == 0, if NT4.x compatible we would close all old resources.

I'm running version 2.0 beta. During the initial installation, I configured Samba to authenticate with an NT server. It worked as expected. Now, I want to reconfigure Samba with security = user. I've set encryption = no (and insured that the NT client is sending plain text passwords), and I've removed the references in the smb.conf file to PASSWORD SERVER =. As I expected, the NT

from samba 3.0.9 to 3.0.13 I can not access my shares from a NT4 box as usual before upgrading. I can access samba shares from linux via mount //server/testuser /mnt -o username=testuser,password=testpass as before. Even the newest version (3.0.14a) from samba.org doesnt't help. What has happened to samba ??? Any hints ?? Thanks for your thoughts, G?tz.

Greetings all, I'm working on attempting to get SAMBA to work with a product line called CryptoCard. I *should* be able to get it to work one of two ways, either through the use of CryptoCard's provided PAM module, or through RADIUS authentication. Currently, I cannot seem to get PAM authentication to work at all. This is what is in the 'samba' file for PAM: auth

Hi, I'm attempting to get my server set up to share out files using Active Directory authentication. I also have winbind set up for shell logins to the server. That part works fine, but when I attempt to connect to a samba share with smbclient, I get rejected with "session setup failed: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE". I did some searching and found others with similar issues, and I

Hi, First off, I apologize if this email goes through twice. I sent it about an hour ago, but it appears to have never made it to the list, so I'm sending again.

Hi Harry, When I install slapd , I didn't get the option to use MDB, so used hdb I went through your suggestions and cleaned up the smb.conf. Also added the unixidpool ldif dn: sambaDomainName=mydomain,dc=mydomain sambaDomainName: mydomain sambaSID: S-1-5-21-3936576374-1604348213-1812434911 sambaAlgorithmicRidBase: 1000 objectClass: sambaDomain objectClass: sambaUnixIdPool

Hi again, as I am finally back working on the problem, I add the smb.conf in the hope somebody can see what I am doing wrong. Samba Version is 3.0.14a from Debian Sarge. Attached is my smb.conf - there may be some unnecessary things in it meanwhile due to too much trying, but anyways. Meanwhile there are some more clients that have problems with password authentication. One thing I noticed is

We are a primarily Linux company with a NIS backend, but we keep a couple "bridge boxes" for Windows users (on a Windows PDC) to connect to their unix accounts and access data. Under Samba 2.2, this was fairly easy with "encrypt passwords = no" turned on. But I can't figure out how to make it work with Samba 3. Does Samba 3 not support a unix passwd backend, or am I
