Hi! the previous problems were solved (thank you, Rowland!), but few issues remains: I get such msg in log: 0.

Hi, I do get a lot of „string_to_sid: SID .... is not in a valid format“ in our samba 4.6.x Logs. What might be wrong or what might I check. Users can login to the domain and we don’t see any problem on the user / client side … Thanks for suggestion and hints . Regards . Götz

I'm continuously getting this message - it fills all of my logs... How can I fix this, or stop winbind from logging to syslog? Thanks!

Hello! I posted before, figured I'd try again and provide more information in the original post. I'm running samba-3.0.22-1.fc5, joined to a W2K3 domain. All features appear to work - I've been running it this way for a month. This message appears not to actually affect anything, and it occurs every 30 seconds or so. I'll be happy to post my configs, if necessary. This set

System Summary: centos 6.2 samba 3.5 smbldap-tools 0.9.6 openldap 2.4.23 Hello, I am installing smb 3.5 on a CentOS 6.2 host using smbldap-tools. I've previously installed a similar configuration on RHEL4 using smb 3.0 but CentOS now uses nss-pam-ldapd and nslcd instead of nss_ldap, so the configurations cannot be moved straight across. Currently, when I attempt to connect to an smb share

I've been struggling for almost 2 weeks to get Samba working on two new servers. When I try to open a Samba share from a Windows 2003 computer, I always get a logon challenge.

Hello, I have problem with Samba 4.4.3. I'd like to use SMB 3.02 file shares as shared storage for Hyper-V in Windows Server 2012 R2. I am able to create Virtual Machine on Samba share using guest access, but when I try to start VM I'm getting the following error: "An error occurred while attempting to start the selected virtual machine(s).

Hi all, I'm trying to get winbind going on a different PC to the one I've already got working, but I can't figure out why winbind won't work on this other PC. It mostly works (wbinfo works, net ads testjoin reports OK) but "getent passwd" doesn't return anything. The winbind log reports this: [2006/01/17 15:27:15, 1] nsswitch/winbindd.c:main(976) winbindd

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<

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, Samba 4.3.11 is serving printers in my office from a server called "printserver". If a Windows 7 client tries to reach it using a short name \\prinserver , it can see the list of printers, but can't connect to any of them: "Windows couldn't connect to the printer" pop-up appears immediately. Weirdly, it doesn't happen all the times, sometimes it can

Hi, I want to switch from 'security = server' to 'security = ADS'. Kerberos is working and I can login to the server. With Samba 3.0.22 I was able to restrict access to shares with the 'valid users' directive. ve is local unix group. valid users = +ve And force the group ownership with the 'force group' directive. force group = +ve [foo] comment = foo

I have a working Samba 4.7.6 DC with the default /sysvol and /netlogon shares. These shares work perfectly and domain users can access them without any issue. Now, to ease experimenting with config files and stuff (it's not a production server), I've added a /rootdisk share (path=/) limiting its access ro root and domain admins: --------- # cat /etc/samba/smb.conf [global]
