Has anyone had luck getting Winbind from Samba 3.0.11 to compile and authenticate users telnetting (or ssh'ing) into an AIX lpar? If so, what'd you do? :)
I've compiled kerberos and openldap, both installed. Able to run the configure script for Samba, pointing LDFLAGS and related to the correct location for the openldap libraries. I've been unable to get Samba compiled correctly when adding --with-pam to the configure script though. I've followed the instructions in the Samba docs and placed lines in /usr/lib/security/methods.cfg as well as changing the SYSTEM line in /etc/security/user. wbinfo -u shows the domain users. wbinfo --authenticate=user%password indicates that the user could be authenticated in the domain. Still can't telnet into the server. The syslog says something to the effect of authentication denied for UNKNOWN_USER from <ip>. A pam problem perhaps? The winbindd log has errors such as "Illegal multibyte sequence" too. Any hints, pointers, etc from someone who has this working would be appreciated. I've just about googled everything I could think of at this point. The goal is to be able to use active directory to store and manage all user information and not have to do any of that on the lpar itself. Thanks for any help. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
