similar to: The wisdom - or otherwise - of replacing outright rather than merely appending to the example smb.conf file shipped with SAMBA during new server commissioning?

Hi Samba documentation admins, one of the the examples given on this page https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/User_and_Group_management is incorrect and probably should be updated. The snippet of code in question: $ samba-tool user add fbaggins    --random-password --use-username-as-cn    --surname="Baggins" --given-name="Frodo"    --initials=S --mail-address=fbaggins at

Hi All, I am currently running a setup with a main DC ad1, that has ntpd installed and is currently configured to retrieve the time from the UK NTP time pool. I also have a second backup AD DC, ad2, on which I have not installed ntpd but I have installed ntpdate. My current understanding is that the setup I have just described is in-line with the recommended best practices outlined in the

I think one of the more interesting phenomena in the world of wine that has arisen in the past five years is the emergence of a group known as the American Association of Wine Economists. I must admit, when I first saw the announcement of their existence, I assumed it was just some economists having a good time and looking for an excuse to drink some more wine.http://chloehandbagsspring2011.com

Dan et al; This looks like a perfect solution. However, I have one issue. If I initiate the macro manually (put it in the proper context/dialplan) it works. I see the *.wav file being created and growing in the /var/spool/asterisk/monitor directory. If I try to implement it adding the MixMonApp => *1,self/both,Macro,mixmon to the [applicationmap] in features.conf, I cannot get it to

Hi all, I have a couple of Samba 4 DCs on my network and I created a new service account LDAPReader on my DCs that my non-Samba third-party services such as Redmine successfully use to access AD via the LDAPS protocol. I have a couple of questions that relate to having service account of this nature implemented in Samba and I wondered if the group could possibly provide some advice? 1)

Dear samba-list, please disregard my previous post. Since posting I have found a way to avoid the need to create a dedicated AD service account purely to allow Redmine to authenticate via LDAPS and AD. This neatly circumvents my original issue and is much more secure to boot. For future Redmine users googling, refer to this document here:

Has anybody done such a thing as this? I'm looking to make this transition as smooth as possible. I have the new fileserver up and running, and I'm using rsync to keep the Novell data current on the Samba server. Any words of advice on transferring the users and groups and permissions over to the new server in the least painful way possible? I have some idea that Novell uses LDAP

To be honest, the 'Dynamic Bind' method doesn't seem that secure to me, anybody could 'pretend' to be someone else. Rowland True! I agree with you Rowland that is a weakness. Unfortunately that is a universal weakness shared by all password-based authentication methods. I guess you would have to go with SSH-style encryption keys and certificates to circumvent that problem

Hi everyone, I am using Samba 4.5.16-Debian on Raspbian and thanks to the help offered by everyone here I now finally have a mostly-working Active Directory network. I am now at the stage of creating inidividual user accounts for my domain and unfortunately I have a very basic but fundamental problem! I currently enter the following input at the command-line to create a new user on my DC: pi

Hi All, This Samba release changelog (https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Updating_Samba#Incorrect_TLS_File_Permissions) specifically mentions a security issue and that that the multiple *.pem files needed for LDAP via TLS all need "special permissions" - and mentions to delete old files without the required permissions to force file renewal. Yet in the official Samba documentation

I'm pretty new to this whole Asterisk system & VoIP thing, but being a programmer by trade the complexity didn't scare me off (at least not yet)... I have setup an Asterisk system for my home & home office. My wife & I run two separate businesses from home, and we have a general family home phone line as well. The cost of all these lines with analog carriers was getting

I have been following the recent posts regarding LLVM ARM backend on the list. I am trying to figure out if I should start using LLVM to compile my project or if I should just stick with cross compilers like those provided by Code Sourcery and wait till a later time. I have the following questions in this regard: 1. Can some one tell me if LLVM ARM is being used by anyone to compile any shipped

Hi, is it possible to make install.packages install a source package by compiling it on Unix, but skip compilation and use a pre-built windows binary (shipped in exec/) if installing on Windows? The package should be installable on Windows machines that do not have Rtools installed. This is to make the update process easier for users, because the C++ code does not change often, meaning that I

Hi everyone, just tried executing wbinfo -u and wbinfo -g on a particular Samba domain member that is acting as a file server in my setup. Much to my surprise i did not see the list of users or groups that I would normally expect to see outputted from these commands. Instead both commands just exited and returned no output. I have already tried restarting winbind, smbd, and nmbd on the domain

Hi everyone, i've just been following the instructions about setting up a Samba domain member as a file shares. I am using Samba version 4.5.16-Debian (yes its old, but i'm stuck with it for now ;) ) and I have been following the official Samba documentation found here: https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Setting_up_a_Share_Using_Windows_ACLs I just wanted to give you a heads up, I am

Apple shows the following LLVM version. But the last LLVM version is just 9. I don't know where 10 comes from. Does Apple use a different version number system? Thanks. $ /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin/clang --version Apple LLVM version 10.0.0 (clang-1000.10.44.4) Target: x86_64-apple-darwin17.7.0 Thread model: posix InstalledDir: /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin --

Hi, Until now I've been a happy user of CentOS. Everything just works(tm), and I don't care if application versions are slightly outdated. Next week I have to give a series of classes for a company that recently made the switch to Linux. On schedule is a one-week course for Writer and Calc. And right now I discover that one crucial function of Calc, "fill series",

Hi all, I've been working on getting Samba to authenticate via ADS for the past few weeks with some lack of success. I had somewhat of a breakthrough the other day realizing that the problem was related to the kerberos authentication between Samba and the Win 2008 R2 AD server. Trying to fix this I generated a keytab with ktpass which I uploaded to the server. I've been successful to

Hi everyone, I have a basic SAMBA setup with a main AD DC ad1 and a backup AD DC ad2, running on Samba 4.5.16-Debian on Raspbian. I would now like to enable LDAPS so my users can authenticate in other non Samba services using Active Directory. From reading the documentation here: https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Configuring_LDAP_over_SSL_(LDAPS)_on_a_Samba_AD_DC I understand that for the most
