Well, under 2.8 it didn't work until I installed that library. Maybe a quirk with my setup. No biggie, your statement is certainly true for 3.0.So under 2.8 this was happening, until I realized I hadn't installed
libpam-smbpass. Once I did this, access was granted. After I upgraded
I checked that all relevant packages were at 3.0beta2 and they were,
including libpam-smbpass. So am I missing another library? Am I
missing something in my smb.conf file? Here's the output of testparm:
libpam-smbpass is not required to make samba work correctly. It is of absolutely no use when you put it inside /etc/pam.d/samba.
I was using obey pam restrictions because I had the line:~ obey pam restrictions = Yes^^ obey pam restrictions is only useful if you have 'encrypt passwords =
no'
session required pam_mkhomedir.so skel=/etc/skel umask=0022
in pam.d/samba, in order to autocreate home directories when users accessed via smb. Setting "obey pam restrictions" to no (or commenting it out) fixed the access problem I was having (Thanks very much!) but now home directories aren't being autocreated. This is minor and will probably only result in mild annoyance on the part of my users, but if anyone knows of a way I can have my cake and eat it too, please do tell!
