Hello everyone, I have a Samba 3.4.7 + OpenLDAP working as PDC. Since this morning, some computers, mainly the ones with Windows 7, are getting trust relationship problems and I cannot find the source of the problem. All my windows boxes do automatic updates, and there was a pack of 9 or 10 updates yesterday, but i don't know if this have some relation with the problem. I don't know

I'm looking for an antivirus program for a Samba fileserver (PDC). Is ClamAV good enough? It seems to be mainly used for mail servers... Any other suggestion, free or non-free? I tried F-secure antivirus for linux servers but it keeps giving problems. All clients use F-secure which i centrally manage from another linux server which is pretty good imo. I read other people suggesting to use

Hi all, Can anyone point me in the right direction to apply Group Policies from a Samba 3.0.26 PDC to my Windows XP and Vista clients. I read chapter 26 of the Samba manual (dated April 3 2003) and I was wondering if the NTConfig.POL file in the NETLOGON share is the way to go here? Regards, Joost.

Hi everybody, I'm new to this mailing list, i need help about a configuration with Samba / Openldap. I have a samba server with shared folders, where users authenticate with a determined login/password. I would like to use my directory (openldap) to authenticate my users to access the shared folders. I do not want to use samba as a domain controller, just to authenticate the users with

Yes please for the notes. I re-ran the tests without the smbldap-tools. I installed phpldapadmin and am able to login to the apache page using the cn=admin, dn=mydomain and create entries. This kind of tells me that LDAP is working Then I run the pdbedit -Lv and it lists all the users. The following happens when I add the LDAP bits to smb.conf and restart samba.The issue seems to be with samba

After moving from Redhat AS4 to RHEL 5.5 we started noticing these error messages in the messages log. Upgrade procedure was to build new machine with updated OS, install new samba, duplicate existing ldap server connections, and then shutdown the old box and put new one in place. Messages were not seen on AS4 box and smb.conf file is identical on new box. I am wondering if there was a change

Hi, I have a strange problem with a Windows Server 2008 R2-System as a member of a samba domain (Samba-Version on PDC: 3.4.12). Join was successfully, but when I log on Windows I got an error "Unknown user name or bad password." (Event ID 4625). Here an abstract of logfile for Windows Server 2008 R2-System (log level 10). Maybe some of you has an idea:

Hi Harry, When I install slapd , I didn't get the option to use MDB, so used hdb I went through your suggestions and cleaned up the smb.conf.

Hello, I recently set a new server (a HP Proliant with 2 Quad Xeon 2GHz and 8GB RAM), with a Slackware 13 64Bits, where I installed Xen 4.0, with the kernel 2.6.31.13 (the same for dom0 and for domU), and I set up a virtual mail server from which several people retrieve its mail. When i try to download big files or retrieve big mails from that server, it often start to slow down to 4-5Kb/s

Hello, I have problem with idmap configuration.

There was an earlier thread about failing trust relationships between Windows 7 and Samba. Since we occasionally experience the same problem with Win 7 clients against a Samba 3.5.4 server, I investigated this a bit further. I think it happens when - the time to change the machine password has arrived - the Win 7 machine is up, but no one is logged on (login box is shown on the screen). To

Hello, i''ve an HP proliant dl385g2 server with AMD64 Opteron processor. i''ve rightly installed Debian Ecth and configured as Dom0.

Hello guys! I'm using samba 3.2.4 (binaries from samba.org) on SLES9+sp3. I am building a PDC with LDAP support (i am attaching my config files), I'm also using ldapsam:trusted and ldapsam:editposix. Although I am setting the account lock after 3 failed tries in usrmgr, and verified that the parameters are actually set in the LDAP, no locking occurs. I started thinking that it was my

Hi, I have an ldap provider and consumer that appear to work correctly, EG, new users are sync'ed and a search on either server (ldapsearch -x -b 'dc=example,dc=com' '(cn=djohn)') returns an oject. However when an XP user attempt to connect to the consumer server the authentication fails: [2011/06/10 16:11:21, 0] lib/util_sock.c:write_data(1059) [2011/06/10 16:11:21, 0]

Hi, we are using SAMBA 3.6.1-1 (updating this archlinux machine is tooo ugly) and 3.6.6-1 on archlinux with the LDAP (Server version is 2.4.26-3) backend and manage the users, groups and computer by using the smbldap-tools. Currently we are experiencing the following problems: 1. changing the passwords takes longer than 30 seconds <- That's bad because we are using a gigabit ethernet

hai, im still on holiday but i did see some things a bit, also in addition about the smb.conf in classic mode dns forwarder is predecated, so i suggest avoiding the option. this part, you set ssl off but also set the ports to the ssl ports. ldap ssl = off ldap passwd sync = yes /etc/ldap/ldap.conf BASE dc=mydomain URI ldap://sam3dc.mydomain ldap://sam3dc.mydomain:666 use URI

Hi there, i got into some trouble after updating my samba installation to 3.0.27a. My installation uses Samba-3.0.27a,OpenLDAP-2.2.13,smbldap-tools-0.9.2 as a PDC NT4-domain.Originally I used the installation-guide from smbldap-tools and everything worked fine. I also limited the access to LDAP as told in the installation-guide with no problems. After updating to 3.0.27a i realized that when

I have Samba and LDAP up and running, but I'm having problems editing the password policy using pdbedit. (I'm running 3.0.22) I've had a look at the man page for pdbedit but I don't really fully understand what it does in relation to passwd backends. Does pdbedit update just one backend and expect a user to export the updates to other backends? I think I've set up ldap as

Hi, I'm having an issue trying to make a Windows machine sambaserveroin a Samba domain. Samba is running with LDAP backend (OpenLDAP). When I try to join the domain, Windows says that the machine account does not exist. The machine account, however, is successfully created in the LDAP directory after the join fails. When I try to join again, Windows says that the account already exists.
