similar to: Weird access problem to files

I've set up a single server with a DC and fileserver. I've read through all docs and the warnings on the wiki (VERY well done, many thanks to all the contributors) more than once so I hope I haven't missed anything. smb.conf: # Global parameters [global] netbios name = FILESERVER realm = WDC.DOMAIN.IT server role = active directory domain controller

I know about this param, I configured it and log.smbd, log.nmbd and others are rotated, log.samba is not. ----- Original Message ----- > From: "samba" <samba at lists.samba.org> > To: "Lorenzo Milesi" <maxxer at yetopen.it>, "samba" <samba at lists.samba.org> > Sent: Thursday, May 21, 2020 7:29:04 PM > Subject: Re: [Samba] log.samba

Samba 4.12.1 installed from source following the wiki. I noticed /usr/local/samba/var/log.samba is not being rotated at all, it starts since the day I installed and it's still growing (500M so far). Is this something which must be handled manually with a logrotate entry? What signalling does samba require after the file has been rotated? I didn't find anything on the wiki, is it worth

Latest Samba4 upgrade (4.3.11+dfsg-0ubuntu0.16.04.26) broke external LDAP auth probably with the following error: LDAP request size (81) exceeds (0) samba-tool outputs the following when ran: Unknown parameter encountered: "ldap max anonymous request size" Ignoring unknown parameter "ldap max anonymous request size" Unknown parameter encountered: "ldap max authenticated

> which share isn't working ? > is it 'CONDIVISIONE' ? What is really weird is: Computer01, Win10, user1 logged in as local (not using domain user), share mapped with domain user. In the path I've posted in the first message the user can access BUT cannot write. Computer01, Win10, user1 logged in as domain user: same as above, user can access the folder but cannot write.

Apparently nothing requires it: The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:

We upgraded one more domain, and in the hope to avoid this error, we remained on 4.16. So we deployed a new 4.16.9 DC, joined, everything is fine. Remove the old DC, upgrade OS, install 4.16.10 (which was

I've just deployed an AD DC fileserver with Samba4 but the server itself is not available when browsing network computers from a Windows PC. Is it because of this [1][2] or did I misconfigure it? Thanks my config: # Global parameters [global] netbios name = FILESERVER realm = WDC.MYDOMAIN.IT server role = active directory domain controller server services =

So we opened

Hi. We migrated a S4 workgroup to S4 AD DC, I'm trying to allow users to access the new \\fileserver with the old host name \\server. I added a CNAME record to the AD DNS zone, created alias for fileserver with samba-tool spn add ldap/SERVER fileserver$ samba-tool spn add HOST/SERVER fileserver$ I also added netbios aliases = server to smb.conf but this should be useless, as

This means Win clients are logging in via LDAP? Can this be related to the inaccessible

Samba Version 4.12.1 I'm trying to change server IP address from 10.0.0.69 to .3 on a single AD DC running also as fileserver (very small situation). I'm following this [1] guide, I have no interface restrictions in samba or in bind. I stop samba, change IP address, restart bind, start samba, but when I run samba_dnsupdate I get some messages until: 5 DNS updates and 5 DNS deletes

I'm having a weird situation with a freshly installed Samba v4.12.1 compiled from source. This is a single server with DC and fileserver, I followed all the guidelines for doing things correctly in this specific situation and I hope I haven't missed anything. The server works correctly as expected, I'm managing all the permissions from Windows. Unfortunately users occasionally

Thanks for the suggestions! > The latter is easiest to deal with, replace it with a CNAME in the AD dns. I did the CNAME, but when I remove the netbios alias I can see the shares list when accessing \\aliasname, but then I'm not allowed into any of them. I tried rebooting the client but same result, and I also don't see anything in the logs :( > The first will require a bit more
