Hello, Just wondering what I should be using for the password change program on a BDC. Should it be: passwd program = /usr/bin/smbpasswd -r <PDC address> %u I'm having a problem with passwords not staying in sync between the PDC and BDC with pass backend ldap. The systems are all Fedora Core 4, Samba 3.0.14a, openldap 2.2.23 Kent N

Dear samba-users We are experiencing some rather long logon times using SAMBA 3.5.6 on Debian Squeeze + Windows 7 and while trying to find out why we raised the loglevel to 5 resulting in a rather large logfile. But this did give us a hint as to why we experience so long logon times. It seems that samba is going through the whole user-database with all usernames and machine-accounts. Eventually

Hello everybody, I'm having trouble with samba 3.5.11 and an access 97 database. I work in a business with 5 users that use a mdb database over samba, and for the first to make a query everything works fine, but if some other user tries to make a query when the first one is doing it, the database works really slow, like if the .mdb file is being blocked (that's what I suppose). I've

Hi Im looking to config a BDC with ldap. It seems the connection with ldap primary server works, but Im confused with the shared folders. I understood when you creates a BDC needs to put the same global information: [global] workgroup = DOMAIN netbios name = DOMAIN-PDC security = user enable privileges = yes interfaces = 127.0.0.0/8 eth0 10.0.1.0/24 10.0.0.0/24 server string =

Hi all, Yesterday, i changed from samba 2.2.3 to samba 3.0, and also i changed the machines which samba is running on. Samba worked and should work as a PDC. It runs on a Debian sid, the test client is a notebook with XP Professional. Yesterday, immediately after migrating, everything worked fine. Even after several reboots, i could logon as a domain user, and i could use the shares. Today, i

This might be simple, but I have been banging my head against google for awhile now and not an answer in sight... Anyway, Samba PDC with roaming profiles. When a user logs out the profile isn't written because it says that "The specified network name is no longer available" Whatever that is supposed to mean. Following is my smb.conf.

I've run into an annoying permission problem with Samba 2.0.2 on FreeBSD 2.2.6. I have a share named siteimages that is set up with "force group = www". User neuro is in group 1000 (user), but not group 1001 (www). The directory for siteimages is 0770, owned by nobody.www. Obviously, neuro does not have access to that directory normally, but forcing the group should give him

Hello samba gurus, I have a couple of questions regarding Linux file systems, and their ability to mimic NTFS, and the other question is regarding winbind and its uncanny ability to virtually lock up a samba AD member server once connectivity to the AD is lost. I apologize if anyone gets annoyed by this question. Environment: I am using samba 3.2 with XFS+ACL support joined as a AD domain member

I have an issue where at odd times, maybe after 3 days, maybe after a week, people suddenly cant do domain logons. Unfortunately the machine is 50km away so i'm sure theres more details I can glean once I can interogate the users a bit more. Things I have noticed: Anyone currently logged in can still work fine. A restart of samba fixes the issue (till it hapens next). ps ax shows smbd and
