Having issues with not being able to bind with my openldap server... Do I need to install openldap client tools and get the box set up to use it first? -- Jefferson K Davis Technology and Information Systems Manager Standard School District 1200 North Chester Ave Bakersfield, CA 93308 661.392.2110 ext 120 (office) http://district.standard.k12.ca.us District Users: Click here to

So, I have a test domain set up with rfc2307 = yes . Now I'm trying to figure out if a) my nfs automount data came over from OpenLDAP, and b) if not, how to get it into samba 4's ldap, or something else??? Do I need to rethink my approach? Mount locations are pretty consistent based on primary group/userid Needs to work on Linux. Existing entries look like this... # /u,

Any suggestions as to folks who have written fairly concise how-tos'? Much of what I've found so far is pretty vague. Also if moving to AD DC model, strategies for syncing with OpenLDAP... (Not to stir up old wounds, but the idea of multiple credential sources makes me very ill) Thanks, -Jeff -- Jefferson K Davis Technology and Information Systems Manager Standard School

I keep seeing different approaches/recommendations as to which DNS services to utilize for an AD controller... what are your recommendations, and why? Thanks very much. -- Jefferson K Davis Technology and Information Systems Manager Standard School District 1200 North Chester Ave Bakersfield, CA 93308 661.392.2110 ext 120 (office) http://district.standard.k12.ca.us District

Most of what I've found involves installing from source, which I'm not opposed to for a pilot install but for production I would rather use the distro packages or sernet. Or is this nuts/shortighted/ignorant? At any rate, I'm looking for a good guide for getting it set up as an AD controller, and then migrating my existing samba3+openLDAP+autofs setup to the new platform. Having

Been tearing my hair out trying to find out if redirecting my user's automounted home folder is killing offline files availability. We are just now migrating our windows users to win7 (school, limited funding), and while I've got folder redirection working, I also need to make sure offline files work as well for my mobile users. What smb.conf settings are required that will fix this

The init scripts do not seem to have the chkconfig parameters... I need to start samba before autofs or it cannot provide the mounts from LDAP... Not currently an upstart job, so cannot make autofs wait for samba. Or maybe more to the point I don't know how ;) Thanks, -Jeff -- Jefferson K Davis Technology and Information Systems Manager Standard School District 1200 North

So, I managed to get an ad controller running, but cannot seem to get it to forward dns queries to my DNS server. It resolves it's own SRV records just fine. upstream bind is 9.2 AD controller is the same DNS domain as the rest of my network (could this be the issue?) using SAMBA_INTERNAL on the AD controller. It's like I can either resolve my AD controllers SRV records or the

openssl "blesses" my cert chain, but samba has an issue with it. TLS failed to initialise certfile /var/lib/samba/private/tls/standard.k12.ca.us.crt and keyfile /var/lib/samba/private/tls/standard.k12.ca.us.key - ASN1 parser: Error in DER parsing. openssl verify -CAfile gd_bundle.crt standard.k12.ca.us.crt standard.k12.ca.us.crt: OK Anyone know where I went wrong? incorrect cert

Ok, I've tried all the "common" fixes, such as turning oplocks off on the share. Twice a day the database has to be repaired. running samba-3.0.7-2.FC2 Here's the pertinent section: comment = Aeries path = /home/aeries valid users = @aeries read only = No create mask = 0770 directory mask = 0770 inherit permissions = Yes

Ok, I'm going kinda nuts... I have a samba 3 + openldap domain, which works great for authentication, etc. I am trying to use the NTConfig.POL to enforce policies on a mix of 98/win2k and XP boxes. This is a K12 environment, so I need very restrictive policies for students, less so for teachers and staff. What seems to be happening, at least with the XP clients is that it gets the

This is a new one to me... Drivers install fine, but on some of the printers I get the "test page failed to print" message. I'm getting nothing in the samba logs from the workstation, smbd, nor from the cups logs. I've googled myself silly, but can only find other people asking the same or similar question. Some of them have found permissions to be the problem, but in

Linux: Fedora Core 2 Samba: 3.0.3 OpenLDAP: 2.1.29 I've noticed a couple of other messages in this month's archives that suggest they're having the same problem as I, but so far no resolution has been reported. I've got a new Samba domain up and running with LDAP that allows me to join Win2K and XP clients, but not NT4 workstations. I've added the machine account with the

My school district will be building a new elementary school in 2006. We were about to go to bid with a traditional intercom system for the campus but I would like implement Asterisk at the campus. My question is, do we build in a traditional intercom/paging system and tie that into the Asterisk PBX, the way such intercoms have been connected to other PBX's in our district in the past, or

I am having problems with Rsync running between 2 FreeBSD computers. We are trying to use it to backup a directory on the primary server /var/mail (using a pull method). The configuration on the primary server (Polaris) should be ok as it was running rsync previously before our client server was rebuilt. On the client server (Mira) we have installed rsync to the /usr/local/bin directory and have

Colleagues- I'm experiencing a very odd problem that seems to be the root of some cross-subnet domain logon / browsing problems I am experiencing. Basically, I have a Samba 3.0.8 box acting as a PDC and WINS server for an NT style domain that is primarily on one subnet, but has a few users on others. On subnets other than the one the server resides on, domain logons fail sporadically.

Hi, I'm trying to avoid re-inventing the wheel here if I can. I'm looking for a script or set of scripts that allow me to create a bunch of samba 3.X/posix users and their corresponding LDAP entries from a delimited text file or something similar. If it's web-based, so much the better, esp if some of the functions can be delegated (with reduced permissions) for specified groups

Hi, I need to mass-update my users in openldap so that their passwords don't expire (school teachers). Anyone have any ideas about what the best process would be for accomplishing this?

I have a linux system running Samba 1.9.18p7-2 smoothly right now, with perhaps 600 users. I have an NT box with 2 users, for a dedicated application, which is a PDC right now. I have ~300 Win95 client machines that I want to have do a domain login, authenticating off the samba box (running RedHat 5.1, btw) so that I don't have to replicate users onto the NT box when all they really need to

As I have mentioned before on this list, I am the network Admin for a k12 public school district. We have migrated to samba, in order to save money, and we love it. We have a situation though, where managing a program under samba, vs. Novell is a bit harder, and I want some suggestions on how to handle it. The program is Accelerated Reader, which is a program where students take quizes, and
