Greetings, I am trying to join a EMC Celerra NS502 CIFS server to our Samba 3.0.21a domain controller. According to EMC, I was told that we need to manually create the machine account first. How is the best way to do this? We are using an openLDAP backend, using the idealx scripts. Joining a windows machine from the computer properties dialog of that machine works perfectly. Things I have

Howdy, I'm having one last problem with my Samba PDC with an ldap backend. When I add a machine to the domain I get the error, on my Win7 test client, that says: The following error occurred attempting to join the domain "office": A device attached to the system is not functioning. Here are some particulars: # smbd -V Version 3.5.6 (configured sernet repo to install latest

Hi, I'm running a debian lenny machine with samba (3.5.0) and OpenLDAP installed (2.4.11). When i add a machine to the domain, windows reports the following error: "The specified computer account could not be found". The computer account is added to the LDAP database but without the samba attributes. The weird thing is that if i try it a second the, the samba attributes are added to

I'm using samba-3.0.23d-19 on openSUSE 10.2 with an LDAP PDC arrangement I'm trying to sort out some problems with adding a trust relationship. Specifically, smbpasswd is failing when I try to create/modify the domain account. Further investigation shows that it is also failing to modify workstation accounts. However it is able to modify user accounts fine. The big difference here seems

hi, i see the same error message with samba 3.0.14a and OpenLDAP 2.2.23 (Debian Packages) with Master/Slave setup. i did not set up a referral to the master, so why does samba get a referral when attempting to write to a slave? is this an in-build samba feature? do i have to enable referrals to get this to work properly? any advise is appreciated! thx! micha Zwonarz Ivo wrote: > We use

We use sambaPDC + LDAP On our BDC we have a replicated ldap slave. Everything seems to work fine. Hower, in the smbd log file we have the following messages (only on the BDC's) [2006/05/31 15:25:08, 1] passdb/pdb_ldap.c:ldapsam_modify_entry(1495) ldapsam_modify_entry: Failed to modify user dn= uid=pc01233$,ou=Machines,dc=brrc,dc=be with: Referral [2006/05/31 15:25:08, 0]

Okay, so I've RAZ my ldap-database since last week, I've check all my config from samba. Now I have another error :( When I try to join the domain in Administrator; (samba create the computer but ...) : Administrator:x:998:512:Netbios Domain Administrator:/home/data1/samba/Administrator:/sbin/nologin Here's the log of Samba log.poil-barebone

I'm playing around with samba + LDAP in a test environment. In LDAP root doesn't have a SambaSID:, but root does have a User SID: in pdbedit. Do I need to set the SambaSID in LDAP for the user root, or does it not matter? If so, how? I tried smbpasswd -a, smbldap-useradd, and smbldap-passwd -a and none worked. But I can load the SambaSID in by hand with ldapmodify if I need to.

Hi once again Now I have almost everything working, that is, Samba 3.0.2 with Ldap database (messages ok when reading), and I want it to be a PDC, everything seems to work fine when registering machines or users, but when logging, I mean, entering W2k-Sp4, my computers (two of them) reset themselves: they begin to load the user defined stuff and then when one expects the the navigator bar to

I'm switching from OpenLDAP to the newly released Fedora Directory Server (formely known as the Netscape Directory Server) as a LDAP backend for my Samba domain. I'm now faced with a problem regarding how Fedora DS handles the userPassword field. Unlike OpenLDAP it encodes it in base64 so instead of reading userPassword: {SSHA}0lP+r3Z1NVan7Caf4CG9oSgnTbQRrv/p it reads: userPassword::

Hi everyone, I'm unable to make the account lockout to work properly. & this is driving me mad. I am running samba Version 3.0.23c-1.fc5 as a PDC with openldap 2.3.19 on a fc5 (all packages from yum). I was running a 3.0.21 with the same issue. I'm using as well the Idealx script to manage the LDAP. The fact: I have a very strange behavior. The domain policy have been setup with the

Hello, as I continued exploring Samba 3.0.4 as a PDC, I managed to get roaming profiles up ... Saving changes worked out fine. I logged in as TheUserWithUID=0 ... and tried to add a user.

Hello, all! I'm running samba 3.0.2 PDC on FreeBSD 5.2 with ldapsam backend. Everything works great (thanks to Samba Team!) except adding add deleting users from user manager for domains.

Dear all, I have installed Samba (3.6.6) on Debian wheezy and configured it to authenticate against LDAP (encrypted passwords, no lanman). I want simple shares with user security. I have configured PAM/NSS from the same LDAP and it works fine. WinXP works fine, smbclient works fine, but Windows 7 only works for SOME passwords. Some work, some do not. Samba is configured with restricted LDAP

I cannot join any windows clients to my samba 3 pdc. I am seeing these logs in my samba log.machinename when I am attempting to join it to the domain.

Hi We have some Samba servers using LDAP (389 DS) as backend. In the LDAP server, we have defined some policies to make the passwords stronger. When a user tries to change his password (Control-Alt-Del), this message appears in the LOGs: ==> /var/log/samba/xptest <== [2010/06/28 12:26:26, 2] auth/auth.c:check_ntlm_password(309) check_ntlm_password: authentication for user [10000001S]

I found out the answer to why the bad password count was failing by following the stack trace If anyone has the same problem, this was caused by my access rights being too restrictive. source/passdb/Init_sam_from_ldap.c:1064 => There is a "goto fn_exit;" in case ldapsam_get_entry_timestamp() fails before the cache is read via login_cache_read. This function will fail if it cannot

I can add machines to the domain and I can login and change passwords. The trouble is that I'm using NTLM and have been told that I must upgrade to NTLMv2, but I'm having great difficulty doing so. I have existing NTLM users. I
