[Samba] Password server is not connected - "cli not initilised" issue
Hi all, We are currently upgrading some core infrastructure and authentication hosts (Mac OS X 10.4.11 Open Directory/OpenLDAP/KDC --> 10.5.5). We've run into an interesting snag however. The Sun host that we use for sharing out files over Samba 3.0.28a (Sun's currently shipped, supported version of Samba) worked perfectly with the directory master running Mac OS X 10.4.11. When upgraded to 10.5.5 Server however, we are given the following errors on the samba/ Sun side of things: [2008/10/04 17:40:59, 1, pid=2237] auth/auth_server.c:(247) password server is not connected (cli not initilised) I have done a bit of searching and can't actually find out what this *really* means. Suffice to say, it is confusing, because, from a Mac OS X Leopard client, we can: smbclient -k //share.goes.here.now/share mount_smbfs //[EMAIL PROTECTED]/share /mount ...but in Mac OS X Leopard client finder/windows, we cannot! We are attempting an upgrade of our samba version to 3.2.x, in a slight attempt to see if this will resolve our problems, but we just don't know what "cli not initilised" actually means, let alone how the password server could possibly be disconnected, when it clearly works with smbclient and mount_smbfs. Very confusing. Thoughts/feedback are appreciated. Thanks all. JC -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
Re: [Samba] Password server is not connected.
Hi Paul, thanks for your advice. I succeded in avoiding "password server is not connected" introducing "security=domain" instead of "security=server" and 2.2.12. About our choice on samba2 vs 3: compiling 3.x with Openldap was my first try but I encurred in the known problem on supplemtary groups documented on https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=943 and http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba-technical/2003-December/033162.html. This can be avoided compiling with Sun/Netscape Ldap lib, and this was smoothful for me only with samba2 (and Sun DS 5.2). Bye. -roberto Paul Gienger wrote: We are using "security=server", which is an Active Directory. I'm pretty sure that 2.2.x doesn't do active directory well, if at all.

To compile 3.0.x to run against Sun's LDAP server, the stated procedure is to compile against openldap libraries, which will give you the abilitiy to talk to any ldap server. You just need to tell samba how to speak the language of ldap, not Sun's particular dialect. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

[Samba] Password server is not connected.
Hi, we are rolling out a big Samba 2.2.8a installation. I used that version because I succeded in compiling it with Sun Directory Server 5.2 (ldap) libraries without any source modification. We are using "security=server", which is an Active Directory. During our test we get a lot of random "smbd/password.c:server_validate(1102) password server is not connected" (note the password server is not specified) This is a random error: after a while then you can authenticate correctly. So I am guessing if there is some parameter which would avoid it. My smb.conf is: [global] workgroup = CTXHERA netbios name = SAMBATEST interfaces = samb2/255.255.255.0 bsamb2/255.255.255.0 bind interfaces only = Yes security = server password server = ctxdc1, ctxdc2 encrypt passwords = Yes server string = Area TEST SAMBA2 lock dir = /usr/local/samba2_test/var/locks pid directory = /usr/local/samba2_test/var/locks log file = /usr/local/samba2_test/var/logfile log level = 3 socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192 SO_KEEPALIVE wide links = No create mask = 0770 directory mask = 0770 [PITECO] comment = PITECO_TEST browseable = yes writable = yes path = /samba/samba01/TEST/piteco_test Many thanks and best regards. -roberto -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
[Samba] password server is not connected line 1101 in password.c
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1
I am trying to troubleshoot a problem where users who were
authenticated fine are now unable to be authenticated.
Looking at the logs I see password server is not connected
note the 2 spaces between server and is, I checked line 1101 of
password.c and it states:
1101: if (!cli->initialised) {
1102: DEBUG(1,("password server %s is not connected\n",
cli->desthost));
1103: return(False);
1104: }
now it would appear that %s is not getting the name of the passwd
server like it should. Any idea where to look from here?

[Samba] password server is not connected
I have installed samba 2.2.7a on FreeBSD from the ports collection. I have used an existing samba config file which worked with samba 2.0.x. I am using security = server Yesterday, a user attempting to use a print share started getting rejected with the message: [2003/01/22 13:52:21, 1] smbd/password.c:server_validate(1101) password server is not connected [2003/01/22 13:52:21, 1] smbd/password.c:pass_check_smb(545) Couldn't find user 'joeuser' in passdb.

That fixed it. However, today, the problem is back. Any attempt to print to the share fails. The password server is UP and running because other samba server authenticate users to it... These are samba 2.0.x servers. The password server is a win2k box. -- David Bear College of Public Programs/ASU Mail Code 0803 -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
