Hello all, I'm troubleshooting Zimbra + Samba LDAP on opensuse10.2. When trying to useradd manually: fajar102:~ # useradd --service ldap --binddn uid=zimbra,cn=admins,cn=zimbra -g 20002 test2 Enter LDAP Password: Cannot find base ou for new users. LDAP information update failed: Operations error In /var/log/messages: Jul 5 16:01:04 fajar102 useradd[14606]: new account added - account=test2,

Yay, I finally got my samba 3 PDC working! Following a variety of indirect hints I used the root account to join, rather than trying to mess around with various groups and group mappings. I had done this before, with no good effect, but checked more carefully this time and found that it was my machine account that was not being found, not the root account. Further investigation shows that when

Hi, Is there an equivalent of a useradd for systems that are using LDAP user management? I know I can build an LDIF file and import it, but it is a bit of a pain to do it manually all the time. Is there not an easier / faster way? Thanks, Eric

we''re in the process of setting up an openldap server, for unified unix and webapp authentication, and i''m trying to find a good equivalent of adduser that takes care of generating unique unix numerical uids. what are people using for this? [i''ve googled around and found http://prope.insa-lyon.fr/~ppollet/ldap/useradd.pl but it''s dated 2000] martin

Hello Guys, About a week ago I wrote in with a issue with smbldap-populate; it wouldn't populate because it was missing some packages. This has since been resolved. I am running redhat 9 on a test server, just for more experience really; I am using redhat 9 because of a scsi raid driver needed, please do not ask about this. Ok so here is where I am at> I have been using Samba 3 by

Hi Rich, This patch attends to remove the user accounts in the guest, I send this out to request your comments, if the concept is correct and you can point out some syntax error for me. Thanks a lot, Wanlong Gao Remove user accounts except the root user. Signed-off-by: Wanlong Gao <gaowanlong at cn.fujitsu.com> --- sysprep/Makefile.am | 2 +

"useradd -r testuser" run as root from an interactive ssh session does the right thing: it creates a user account with a UID in the system users range (< 400). Running the same command as a cron job (just for testing), also does the right thing. Now I'm trying to accomplish the same result via chef-client. I'm trying to run "useradd -r" as a simple command, as

I'm trying to trobuleshoot my previuos problem from the basics. I've a box setup with Ubuntu, samba and ldap. I have a lot of problems with user authentications. I'm checking if LDAP and PAM ar working together. I've added an user to ldap with smbldap-useradd command (as posix account) and I'm trying to use it to login via ssh. This user cannot authenticate. Here is the result

Greetings! I have the following configuration: Two PDCs with Fedora Core 4: PDC1 and PDC2. PDC1 trusts PDC2, respectively PDC2 is trusted to PDC1. I join an XP workstation to PDC2. After restart i can see both domains in the login screen domain combo box. I can logon to PDC2 , but not to PDC1, since the PDC2's /etc/passwd

Hello all! I have spent a lot of time chasing down what I think is a bug in smbldap-tools. It seems like many other people have experienced the same problem too. It was pretty hard to triage so I'm writing it down here. The symptom of the problem is that Windows machines cannot join your Samba+LDAP PDC. When you try to change the domain Windows pops up a dialog box saying "no such

Hi, To add a user to the system on the commandline, I usually use the adduser command. # adduser newuser And that's it. I've been using that command probably out of an old habit, since I've been a long-time Slackware user before. But now I wanted to dig a bit deeper, and some details puzzle me. Whereas on Slackware, 'adduser' is an interactive shell script to create a

Hi, I just thought I'd post here some notes after a loong bugsearch. Keywords: failed to perform search; Unexpected EOF using Domain Admins to add machines The problem was that I got this in the sambalog: _samr_create_user: Running the command `/usr/sbin/smbldap-useradd -w "machine$"' gave 127 Part of the problem was that this isn't a lot to go on, and the command

Samba 3.0.23d, on Debian Sarge - using the samba.org packages smbldap-tools 0.9.2 Greetings all, I am trying to set up a new PDC using LDAP, etc. Adding/deleting/modifying users in LDAP works fine using phpldapadmin. These users also work just fine logging in/out. I am trying to get the usrmgr tool to also work, so im working on the scripts on the server. I am getting this error however when

Hi there, This is probably a dumb question, so my apologies, but I've set up WinBind on my my Samba box & it seems to be authenticating against the domain, however new user accounts do not seem to be added. `wbinfo -u` returns a list of the users on the domain and I seem to have setup my IMAP server correctly to authenticate against that (using PAM), as I see the following in
