Excellent suggestion! I forgot about that. I get: # smbd -b | egrep "LOCKDIR|STATEDIR|CACHEDIR|PRIVATE_DIR" LOCKDIR: /var/cache/samba STATEDIR: /var/lib/samba CACHEDIR: /var/cache/samba PRIVATE_DIR: /var/lib/samba/private In my response to Roland I figured using --prefix /var/lib/samba That looks correct, right? I don't suppose the /var/cache directories figure into

The instructions at https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Setting_up_Samba_as_an_Active_Directory_Domain_Controller#Only_Applicable_if_Samba_was_Previously_Installed can be helpful: # smbd -b | egrep "LOCKDIR|STATEDIR|CACHEDIR|PRIVATE_DIR" LOCKDIR: /usr/local/samba/var/lock/ STATEDIR: /usr/local/samba/var/locks/ CACHEDIR: /usr/local/samba/var/cache/ PRIVATE_DIR:

I just noticed that my fresh install of Samba 4.2.3 has the same behaviour. I have a share (\\samba\it_share)) and some users when creating files have the UID as 3000000 and some have their correct UIDs. Share permissons are being controlled by Windows ACLs.

My up-front apologies if this topic has been covered. This is my first time using this list and I don't know how to search for existing topics yet ...

Hi Mark, Just to let you know that we are running dovecot with AD. (and I guess: *many* people are running that combination) It worked without issues, we are using in dovecot-ldap.conf.ext: > auth_bind = yes this user/passwd filter: > = (&(objectclass=person)(sAMAccountName=%n)(!(userAccountControl=514))) > dn = cn=search_dovecit,cn=users,dc=company,dc=com > dnpass =

You think ntp works with samba but it doesn?t. You *must* use chrony. It will take you exactly 5 minutes to get it up and running.

Congratulations. Happy to hear you got it running. Just out of curiosity and apologies if this has been answered before, but why Slack and not Debian when general consensus is Debian is great for Samba ? Building a Samba AD on Debian is painless and takes 20m from start to finish. Anyway, glad you sort it. LP. On 11 Feb 2024 at 05:11 +0100, Mark Foley <mfoley at novatec-inc.com>, wrote:

I've just upgraded from Slackware 14.1 to 14.2. I've not done anything with dovecot -- it's the same version that was running before the upgrade.
