I'm having problems adding users with usrmgr. I can run the scripts from my smb.conf fine from command line and do what I need to. But, when adding users with usrmgr, the login script and path statements are not identified and I have to go in and edit them manually. Does adding a user with usrmgr not use the add user script from Samba? Or must the user environment variables be added

Running system: SuSE 7.2 (kernel 2.2.4) & samba-3.0.0beta1. There is coexisting Win(Millennium) system at the server (reason: many win partitions MUST be directly available at the central unit under windows after rebooting to windows). People connect their laptops (with small HD and Win2k SP2) to central unit and samba offers shares with Linux accounts. However, there are many win

Hi, after updating our printserver from Samba V2.0.6 to V2.2.7 I encountered the following problem. Samba does not execute the (root) pre- and postexec within the printers section. If you are using these command in another section everything works fine. Does anybody know if these command are not supported in the printers section anymore? smb.conf: [global] ... load printers = yes lpq cache

I have a perl script that I'd like to use to create windows 9x login scripts at login time but I cannot get the process to work right. I have RedHat 7.3 (actually the k12ltsp v2.1.0 which is a modified RH7.3) set up as a domain controller which is working well. Manually created login scripts run fine on the workstations at login. I'm using a netlogon script I found at

Hi, there I'm using Samba 3.4.5 and 3.0.28 on RHEL 5.2, and I noticed that on both samba servers 'root postexec' script in [netlogon] is executed automatically when logged in for around 11 minutes. This makes me crazy to track when a use is logged out. The man page smb.conf.5 says: " postexec (S) This option specifies a command to be run whenever the service is

Hi!

Sorry for the english :) Good morning, i've a little network with samba 4.2 on centos 6, NT style domain and win7 client. I've a root preexec and root postexec for tracking logon and logoff to the share. root preexec = /usr/bin/log_access.php "%L" "%U" "%G"? "%S" "%I" "%m" ON root postexec = /usr/bin/log_access.php

I apologize if this is a really silly question but I've been messing with this for awhile now and cannot see any typos that would prevent these shares from showing up. I'm trying two things I've never done before so I want to make sure to point them out: 1) I am using groups in the "valid users" section 2) I am using preexec and postexec on each share Example: [Media]

Does anyone know of a way to log when a user logs off using Samba as a PDC. I have Samba 3.0.2a and can log log-ons using root preexec on a share all users mount, however I do not know of a way to log log-offs. We need this data for record keeping purposes. We don't use roaming profiles, so using root postexec is not an option as shares disconnect when not in use. Thanks for any help,

Hi Folks, I have searched the archives and the web for this issue, but I haven't found an answer. I need to be able to log or audit the network access of our network users. This information needs to be used in conjuction with a time and attendance punch clock. I have seen much discussion of using preexec and postexec for obtaining a network access log. However, my testing has shown this as

Hi, Dear All This is my section of [CDROM] in smb.conf: [cdrom] comment = Samba server's CD-ROM writable = no locking = no path = /cdrom public = yes ; ; The next two parameters show how to auto-mount a CD-ROM when the ; cdrom share is accesed.

I am looking for some way to grant or deny internet access (that is, changing iptables rules) based on Samba domain logon. When a user logs on, I would like to run a script that modifies firewall rules based on the group that the user belongs to (this determines if he has internet access or not) and based on the workstation's IP address (so I know which IP address to grant internet access

Hello!

Since an 'over-quota' or 'disk-full' message is being sent from Samba to the client, it seems obvious that the client _should_ be passing this info. on to the user -- but it isn't. One possible way to get this info. to the client is for Samba to call a shell script similar to the 'preexec' options if quota is exceeded. The script could then invoke smbclient to send a

All attempts to connect to our Samba server, share "\data" from any Windows client fails. I'm trying to get samba to prompt the windows user with a login box, have them enter the samba username/password, then head onto the share. If I use in the address field the following: \\gaia\data /user:woellki a dialog box appears, with the username field greyed out "Gaia\Guest"
