similar to: backup / restore question

Hi, I am trying to backup a samba DC with the samba_backup script as described in https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Backup_and_Recovery (BTW there's a typo in a chapter title which should be samba_backup instead of backup_samba) . It works ok except that it backups also all files in the ./lib/private/ dir , which are all library files. I suspect that it is wrong , isn't it ? Regards

Hi, I followed the tutorial below to do backup of the Samba4: https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Backup_and_Recovery When I execute the backup script manually, it is executed perfectly, but when I execute in the crontab, it isn't work. It is my crontab on Debian 7: 0 1 * * 1-5 /usr/sbin/samba_backup Does somebody have an idea ? Regards, Márcio

Hello, (samba 4.0.8 compiled from git source) Just tried the samba_backup from https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Backup_and_Recovery line 54 mention : tdbbackup $ldb where it should be /usr/local/samba/bin/tdbbackup $ldb Thanks for this nice samba version ! electronico

dear list, I'm trying to migrate nt4 to samba3, and have two issues at the moment. First is: I'm getting two (small?) errors using smbldap-populate on my ldap database. At first I tried ignoring this, but now also rpc net vampire complains. (maybe because of this..?) This is the output of smbldap-populate: <quote> server:/usr/local/sbin # smbldap-populate Using builtin directory

None of my computers have a UID/GID and my GPO works fine. Add the line i suggested to the share, and setup your rights Gr.

Hi, I can be wrong but for me UID and GID are UNIX concepts. If your workstations are Windows systems, those UID/GID are not necessary. This does not address your issue but it could help to understand things and to avoid searching in the wrong direction...

Hi, Is it possible to test our AD for weak passwords? We have set max password age, and password complexity etc. However, we would like to know that the passwords that are CURRENTLY still in the system are good or weak. Perhaps some kind of tool to test dictionary passwords etc, but preferably locally on the /var/lib/samba databases to not lockout the accounts due to too many failed

Do you have any policy in the User tree in the GPME in that GPO? If you never defined one, then the file is missing. Try e. g.

the script is not complete. It isnt stopping samba and as the wiki says, DONT backup a running samba.

Hi, To make our AD more robust, I'd like to provide more than one dns forwarder, like for example: dns forwarder = 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4 However, this seems to break dns resolution completely (and without logging errors in the logs!): # Host test.com not found: 3(NXDOMAIN) With only one forwarder things work: $ test.com has address 208.64.121.161 Am I really allowed to specify only one

Hi Louis, it doesn't say that at all, what it does say is this: Whilst you must never copy a running database, you can backup *.ldb & *.tdb files online with 'tdbbackup' This is a bit ambiguous, what it should say is: You

Hi, Meanwhile we've come many steps further, and a new issue has risen. In samba4 AD we have a user with: - homeDirectory \\server\username - homeDrive P: - scriptPath logon.bat When this user logs on, logon.bat is executed successfully, but homeDirectory is NOT mounted on P: and in the logs we see: canonicalize_connect_path failed for service username, path /\\server\username It seems

Hi, We have suddenly noticed a difference between our dc's. The file called /var/lib/samba/private/sam.ldb.d/sam.ldb is only present on 1 of our three dc's. The AD seems to be in healthy state, but...isn't this a bit strange? root at dc3:/var/lib/samba/private/sam.ldb.d# ls -l sam.ldb -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 53248 Sep 2 17:31 sam.ldb root at dc3:/var/lib/samba/private/sam.ldb.d#

Hi, Just wondering: What are you guys using to deploy software on your windows (7) workstations within the samba4 AD? These are options I know of: * wpkg (but it seems it's development is not too active) * wpkg-gp using the group policies * www.opsi.org (Client Management System for Windows clients) * standard windows software deployment, but I think that's msi-only This page also has
