Hello listmates, Somehow or other my DNS services that are part of the ndjbdns-1.06-1.el7.x86_64 package would not start properly at startup. When I then start them up using systemctl: systemctl start dnscache systemctl start tinydns they start just fine. >From the log I got the following for tinydns: Oct 24 15:01:43 ns99 tinydns[1867]: tinydns: version 1.06: starting: Oct-24 2014 15:01:43

Hello all, We have put a DNS server online running DJBDNS v1.06 (ndjbdns-1.06-1.el6.x86_64) on a 64-bit CentOS 6.6 server. We have done some limited testing on the machine which it passed - i.e., dnscache was talking to tinydns, the queries went through fine, etc. As soon as we put it online subjecting it to live load the following happened: 1) Within a short time period (about a minute) the

Lucian, So far here is the best we could find out: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1084747 Testing to see if this is the solution; so far it seems to be. Cheers, Boris.

Hi there, I've been a happy djbdns+tinydns user for many, many years. I want to keep using it, so answers of the form "bletch! Use ISC BIND the way BSD intended" will be ignored :-) Having said that, one annoying consequence of my transition some time ago to using ntpd, rather than just setting the clock once-off with ntpdate as I used to, is that the /etc/rc.d mechanism starts

When you first provision an AD DC, is there a way to control where samba-tool puts all of the AD data files? -- Greg J. Zartman Board Member Koozali Foundation, Inc. 2755 19th Street SE Salem, Oregon 97302 Cell: 541-5218449 SME Server user and community member since 2000

Hi all, Currently at work we use a commercial product called "Gnatbox", which, I believe, is a BSD derivative running on a floppy disk. They have a pretty UI and all, but I''d feel much safer/happier with a GNU/Linux box and Shorewall doing the same thing. In fact, I''m doing something very close to this at home using Openwrt and Shorewall on my WRT54G router, but I

I'm working on building some perl code to query a Samba AD and list various things. I'm wondering if there is something like samba-tool for query user from the AD other than just the username? I see that I can use and LDAP perl module to query the LDAP side of the AD, but wanted to see if Samba has a utility for doing this. Thanks! -- Greg J. Zartman Board Member Koozali Foundation,

Does anyone know what Red Hat/Centos is going with Samba 4? I've looked at their packages in COS 6.5 and 7 and it doesn't make sense. They seems to be doing some kind of watered down or modified version of Samba 4 with some of the tools disabled. Are they still holding off from full AD implementation in their packages because of the MIT Kerberos issues identified in previous

Is it possible to change the DNS listening IP? I'd like to run a dnscache service for primary LAN queries, but the only way to do this with Samba seems to be iptables preroute configuration to redirect port 53 requests. Thanks, -- Greg J.

I am working to deploy Samba4 on the SME Server: A customized version of Centos with a web management GUI and configuration API. One of the challenges we see is how we synchronize our SME Server configuration API with users who are created using tools outside of *nix. For example if a user were created using the windows administration tools. Are there any triggers in Samba that could be set to

What does the smb server service option do? Does anyone know if there are any docs for the different server service options? Thanks, -- Greg J. Zartman Board Member Koozali Foundation, Inc. 2755 19th Street SE Salem, Oregon 97302 Cell: 541-5218449 SME Server user and community member since 2000

Is it possible to restrict where users can be created in a Samba 4 AD Domain? What if I want to restrict user creation to only the server where samba is running? Thanks, -- Greg J.

I'm going to rephrase my question Are any of you using any time of single signon technology to interact with active directory in a development project? I'd like to be able to grab the authentication with a user first authenticates as a domain admin via, say Apache, and then re-use this auth to give this admin a list of domian user. Not sure of the best approach. -- Greg J. Zartman

It is very difficult to know what all of these pieces in Samba 4 are doing. I know as a developer, this is the last thing you guys want to

Is there a tinydns or dns wizard that could give me some hints, please? I am setting up and testing tinydns, but have some problems figuring out how to route. I do get dnscache to listen on tinydns. Also I do not understand why it will not answer the given ip (127.0.0.1) to the name server. 1. Both services are up running and seems to be working fine, so why no reply, (on the first

Hi! I'm using Samba in an AD setup, (version 4.2.0) and I'm looking for a way to change the password of a user from the command line, as a non-root user. I know I can use 'smbpasswd', 'samba-tool user setpassword', or 'samba-tool user password', but these all seem to require root privileges. When I run them as root, they work, but when I run them as non-root
