hi, we are running several HP-UX 11.23 servers with Samba 2.2.x and are starting a migration to Samba 3 and encounter several problems.
As far as I understand this passage: (chapter 24, Upgrading from Samba-2.x to Samba-3.0.20) "The following issues are known changes in behavior between Samba-2.2 and Samba-3 that may affect certain installations of Samba. When operating as a member of a Windows domain, Samba-2.2 would map any users authenticated by the remote DC to the "guest account" if a UID could not be obtained via the getpwnam() call. Samba-3 rejects the connection with the error message "NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE." There is no current workaround to re-establish the Samba-2.2 behavior. " the user nobody is not used anymore, and there is a need having unixuser account for every windowsuser account. I know, this is a general need, but for differerent purposes we configured "guest ok = yes" in some shares to allow the "guest" access to shares where the unixaccount is missung. Is my interpretation of the passage correct ? In case it is, does it refer to security = domain/ads only or is it valid for security = server as well (I know, security = server is not the preferred configuration). regards....
