I've been struggling for almost 2 weeks to get Samba working on two new servers. When I try to open a Samba share from a Windows 2003 computer, I always get a logon challenge. I always get the following lot message [2008/11/13 16:05:06, 3] lib/util_sid.c:string_to_sid(228) string_to_sid: Sid MYDOMAIN\mygroup does not start with 'S-'. [2008/11/13 16:05:06, 2]

Hi all, I've installed samba (Sernet 3.6.22 on CentOS 6) on a NATed system and now I'm not able to connect or write to my shares. The message in the log says: [2014/03/06 09:45:38.849457, 3, pid=48264, effective(0, 0), real(0, 0)] ../libcli/security/dom_sid.c:208(dom_sid_parse_endp) string_to_sid: SID @smc_cc is not in a valid format [2014/03/06 09:45:38.850510, 3, pid=48264,

Hi, wbinfo -Y BUILTIN\group can work without idmap_rid in Samba-3.0.14a. But I'm experiencing wbinfo -Y with idmap_rid failed for SID to GID conversion of BUILTIN groups. Since idmap_rid only works in a single domain, and captures workgroup's domain sid as a real domain sid in rid_idmap_get_domains(), when running "wbinfo -Y BUILTIN/System Operators", the function

Hello, On AD domain member in both versions of samba 4.6.11 and 4.7.3 I'm getting a lot of following messages: [2017/12/28 15:54:03.838907, 3] ../libcli/security/dom_sid.c:210(dom_sid_parse_endp) string_to_sid: SID msavin is not in a valid format msavin is my user name: # wbinfo -n msavin S-1-5-21-508332004-1178028025-157424832-1273 SID_USER (1) # wbinfo --lookup-sids

Hello, I have problem with Samba 4.4.3. I'd like to use SMB 3.02 file shares as shared storage for Hyper-V in Windows Server 2012 R2. I am able to create Virtual Machine on Samba share using guest access, but when I try to start VM I'm getting the following error: "An error occurred while attempting to start the selected virtual machine(s).

Hi, I hava a Samba4 file server joined to a Samba4 domain. I made a share for all members of the INFINITY domain 'Domain Users' group to access: [demoshare] comment = Test share path = /usr/local/samba/demoshare read only = no valid users = @"INFINITY+Domain Users" but no group member can access it. Any ideas what is wrong? It works if I change the group to

Very odd issue. Transitioning over to a new samba 3.6.9 (from 3.0.33) server. Majority of the users are ok, but a handful of users cannot map their home directories from windows7 clients. Logged into XP their homes map fine. They pass authentication: (log snippet) [2014/03/24 17:20:43.277337, 3] auth/auth.c:219(check_ntlm_password) check_ntlm_password: Checking password for unmapped

Hello, As you said, I have changed Samba configuration and reconfigure Active Directory domain, but still the same problem, I cannot start Hyper-V Virtual Machine stored on Samba shares. *# cat /etc/samba/smb.conf*[global] workgroup = RES netbios name = dsshp2 vfs objects = acl_xattr shadow_copy2 fileid fileid:mapping = fsid encrypt passwords = yes domain logons = no

Hi! the previous problems were solved (thank you, Rowland!), but few issues remains: I get such msg in log: 0.

Hello! I posted before, figured I'd try again and provide more information in the original post. I'm running samba-3.0.22-1.fc5, joined to a W2K3 domain. All features appear to work - I've been running it this way for a month. This message appears not to actually affect anything, and it occurs every 30 seconds or so. I'll be happy to post my configs, if necessary. This set

I'm continuously getting this message - it fills all of my logs... How can I fix this, or stop winbind from logging to syslog? Thanks!

I'm not quite sure why this is happening, I used to be able to connect perfectly fine to my share. Then I updated and rebooted and now I'm greeted with this message, and a login prompt where my credentials are never accepted.

Hi, I do get a lot of „string_to_sid: SID .... is not in a valid format“ in our samba 4.6.x Logs. What might be wrong or what might I check. Users can login to the domain and we don’t see any problem on the user / client side … Thanks for suggestion and hints . Regards . Götz

Just for reference, on a working Samba 4.x server in an AD domain I have the following entries Idmap config *:backend = tdb Idmap config *:range = 2000-2999 Idmap config MYDOMAIN:backend = ad Idmap config MYDOMAIN:schema_mode = rfc2307 Idmap config *:range = 1000-1999 I use active directory users and groups to explicitly set the uid and gid numbers (this was to keep everything happy

Hello, I have a strange problem with Samba AD member: It is accessible via \\server or \\server.domain.local But when I try to access it with its IP address, ex. \\10.15.10.1 I get access denied error and prompt for user and pass. Entering username and password with or without DOMAIN\ has no effect. The server is FreeBSD 10.1. It behaves the same way with Samba 4.1.18 and now with Samba 4.2.2

Test 1: User User1 is a member of group Group1. Group1 has R-X rights to the shared folder SITES. When User1 connects to the server over SMB he sees SITES but when he tries to access it he gets access denied. Logs for the attempt show “chdir (/srv/SITES) failed, reason: Permission denied” Test 2: The same user can connect to the server over SSH and access the folder according to the group

Hi all, Experiencing a really weird issue on my Samba instance (4.7.5). It is not allowing users to browse any shares when running as a systemctl daemon, but it is working fine when running as a foreground service.

Hi all, Just migrated users to a samba 4 server on built on Solaris 11 samba pkg. Some users are mapping all required drives (G:, H:, and I:) but some are not able to map them. The affected users user log files indicate that the %g variable is being translated to '-1' instead of the users Unix group. I would welcome any feedback or suggestions on how to resolve this issue. >From my
