My samba is working and there is no such file.  I have glibc-2.26-r7.

[gentoo-user] Samba and PAM: missing /lib64/security/pam_smbpass.so

[Stefan G. Weichinger]

While I am at my upgrade, I also see that a PAM library is missing now:

PAM unable to dlopen(/lib64/security/pam_smbpass.so):

net-fs/samba has been compiled with USE="pam", does someone know where
to get that library from?

# equery f samba | grep smbpa

You don't need to change your priorities: as I found out yesterday night
samba-4.x is not yet ready to provide AD-DC services on gentoo.

I found out while researching another issue related to smbclient and
german umlauts (popping up when I run backups with amanda).

I wrote to the samba- and the amanda-users-ml, and bgo:

https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=593486

tl;dr ::

* samba in portage is quite old, 4.2.x is EOL upstream (4.6.rc1 released
already upstream)

* samba in portage does not yet provide the bundled heimdal version that
upstream samba works with (in terms of AD-DC services, other stuff works
with mit-krb5 as well).

* there's a test ebuild which uses that internal heimdal-version, see
Comment 9 in the mentioned bug.

But to me that is too unstable and risky to move a whole Windows domain
to already.

Samba4 has been planned for a while, but with it wanting it's own LDAP and tree

Do people here run samba-4.x AD DCs on gentoo?

If yes, pls let me know of any traps or so.
Yes, I read the wiki ;-)

I currently prepare the migration of an old NT4-based domain (on a
samba-PDC, gentoo) to AD (other physical box, gentoo as well).

Did something similar last week (but with debian involved) and learned a

As there is no step back as soon as the Windows clients talked to the

[gentoo-user] Samba 4.2.5 failing to build

[Andrew Lowe]

Hi all,
The subject says it all, Samba 4.2.5 is failing to build. I've got to
do some more indepth research, ie googling, but this email is to see if
anyone has any ideas off the top of their head.

I've got FEATURES="keeptemp keepwork candy" set in make.conf so when I
first did the emerge, the linking failed at [2749/2894], with another
150 files to go. I then reran the emerge and now it fails with:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File

"/var/tmp/portage/net-fs/samba-4.2.5/work/samba-4.2.5/buildtools/wafadmin/Scripting.py",
line 146
except Utils.WafError, e:

 If anyone has any thoughts, ideas, fixes, it would be appreciated. I'm
now off to do some grunt work and try to fix this. If I can't fix it,
I'll be back with more detailed config info.

[gentoo-user] Samba shares gone from from Dolphin after update.

Hello,

I just got a kde update and after rebooting my samba shares are gone from 
Dolphin (under Network). Originally I had to enable the samba use flag for kde-

know how to re-enable it?

ntfsck, which was part of the ntfsprogs package at the time, and (I think) was
already being developed as part of ntfs3g.

I was pleasantly surprised that it worked.

Actually, while there is a NTFS-kernel driver, this driver is mostly 
stable only for reading files, but not writing files.


If you need to use NTFS on a regular basis under Linux, you want to use 
the FUSE ntfs-3g. It is far more advanced and far more stable than the 
kernel driver.

[gentoo-user] Samba wants to downgrade my python....

[Andrew Lowe]

Hi all,
	I've got a media server that I'm in the process of installing Samba on. 
When I do:


emerge -NuD --pretend samba

I get a list of stuff that portage wants to install, including Python, 
V2.7.3, even though the machine already has V3.2.3 installed. I've also 
stripped down the USE variables to basically server and that's all and 
still for some reason portage wants to bring in Python - the older 
version, V2. I've even added a -python to packages.use and it still 
wants python, V2. I've had a look at the USE variables for the packages 
that follow Python in the emerge list and they either don't want python 
or already have -python set.


	Having a play around with equery also didn't reveal anything. Does 
anyone have any ideas as to what's causing old Python to be brought in? 
I haven't posted the whole emerge --info stuff yet as hopefully 
someone has come across this problem before.


Any thoughts greatly appreciated,

Andrew

Hi, when you are dealing with python always remember that the API has
changed between version 2 and 3 so python 3 can't handle python 2 scripts.

So what I think emerge is doing here is installing python 2.7 beside 3.2.

When you add the verbose flag to the emerge command, you will probably see
something like [ NS ] or [ uS ] at the beginning of the python line. The S
stands for new slot, so both version will be installedbecause samba or one
of it's dependency is using python 2 scripts.

Python is slotted (see gentoo docs for more info on SLOTS).

Samba is not downgrading python, it is asking for python-2.7 to be
installed alongside python-3.2 (so you will then have both).

Just accept what portage says and let it do it;s thing - there are many
packages out there that are not ported to python-3 yet so you almost
certainly are going to need python-2.7 at some point anyway.

You've already had a reply about the slotted nature of python, but you
also need to understand that USE flags are not dependency lists. USE
flags cover optional features, if a package has an option python module,
bindings or scripts, a USE flag may determine whether they are installed.
But if a package needs python2, no amount of fudging with USE flags will
change that fact.

First of all: Python 2 and 3 are (partly) incompatible versions of the language.
They can be installed in parallel in different slots (the emerge output will
have contained NS at one point, for New Slot). So you are not so much
downgrading python as installing an older version in addition to the current
version. Although older and newer are misleading, since they have both been
under active development in parallel since Python 3 was released.

Second: you can use the -t (or --tree) option of emerge to get a tree view
of the dependencies, so that you can see what exactly is pulling in
python-2.7.3. But it sounds like some dependency of samba has a hard dependency
on Python 2, so you probably cannot control it.

   Any thoughts greatly appreciated,
 
   Andrew

Randolph,
	You have guessed correctly, I get NS. But to me, the question is why do 
I even need python at all for something that is a file sharing daemon? 
I've turned off CUPS etc etc, I just want file sharing to the M$ world, 
not all the other fluff. I suppose I'll have to have a look at the 
ebuild to try and work out why this thingy wants Python, any python, in 
the first place.

Portage is written in Python, which raises the question of why you didn't
have python:2 installed in the first place. The samba ebuild doesn't
include a dependency on python, so you'll need to do and emerge -t to see
which packages do pull it in, but I suspect it is required by an eclass
inherited by one of the ebuilds.

If so, Samba itself does not need Python to do it's job, but portage
needs Python in order to install Samba. that would make it a build
dependency which could be uninstalled after Samba was merged, but I'd be
nervous about removing Python from any Gentoo system that uses portage.

Neil,

Portage is written in Python, which raises the question of why you didn't
have python:2 installed in the first place. The samba ebuild doesn't
include a dependency on python, so you'll need to do and emerge -t to see
which packages do pull it in, but I suspect it is required by an eclass
inherited by one of the ebuilds.

If so, Samba itself does not need Python to do it's job, but portage
needs Python in order to install Samba. that would make it a build
dependency which could be uninstalled after Samba was merged, but I'd be
nervous about removing Python from any Gentoo system that uses portage.


Neil,
Looks like you've hit the nail on the head. The media machine has just
had a new install of Gentoo done and according to eselect python list,
I only have V3.2. Nothing has been removed, just a few things added so
it looks like the default install only does V3.2. Looks like I'll have
to put up with it, the compile time on the little machine is a killer,
and let the install happen.


Portage works with either instance of python and its ebuild has 
python2 and python3 USE flags. Alas, the build system of 
sys-libs/talloc seems to require python:2.6 or python:2.7. I would 
suggest adding dev-lang/python:2.7 to the world file so as to protect it 
from being reaped by emerge --depclean, only to be required again for 
future builds.


Incidentally, one of the first things I do on a Gentoo system is mask 
=dev-lang/python-3.0 and rebuild affected packages against python-2.7. 
I have yet to find a single instance where having both installed is 
helpful. Even major applications such as Django still don't support Py3k.


Regarding the increase in compilation time, you could get a head start 
by grabbing a binary package from tinderbox.dev.gentoo.org.

Did you miss this?

LOG: postinst
The default passdb backend has been changed to 'tdbsam' in samba 3.4!
That breaks existing setups using the 'smbpasswd' backend without

Please use 'passdb backend = smbpasswd' if you would like to stick to the

'pdbedit -i smbpasswd -e tdbsam'.

[gentoo-user] samba no connect from windows

[Harry Putnam]

This samba problem (windows machines cannot connect to gentoo server)
seems to have followed a recent update including samba.

qlop shows: Mon Nov  1 05:10:33 2010  net-fs/samba-3.5.6

Usually I've found I might need to redo passwords with smbpasswd.

This time, that is not sufficient.

Looking at the logs... which I might add seem ungodly full more or
less useless gunk I'm not seeing anything that appears to be an
error or rejected connection... in fact it appears to be saying the
connection was successful but I'm by no means competent to determine that.   

I've included a snippet below, but let me say that I first restarted
samba, then rm'ed all log* files under /var/log/samba.

Then went to a windows machine and attempted to connect.

Came back to gentoo and scanned thru the logs.  3 were from that
attempt judging by name or ip.  

This snippet starts from the very top of the newly created log and
appears to be showing the connection succeeding?:

You haven't demonstrated you can connect using a Linux machine and the Samba 
command line tools. Connecting using the same machine (to localhost) should be 
sufficient, however it's probably better to connect from a 2nd Linux box. You 
haven't shown us using `ps` that smbd and nmdb are running, nor have you posted 
the output of `netstat` (appropriately grepped - e.g. `netstat -aep | grep -e 
samba -e smb -e nmb`). When you `/etc/init.d/samba restart` does Samba start 
and stop cleanly?

I also suggest you try the Windows command line tools, `net use` c. When you 
connect using the Windows GUI tools you need to be *really* verbose about which 
specific icons and buttons you clicked on. Mounting a network share as a drive 
allows you to specify a username for the share / connection, whereas Start  
Run and typing \\server\share may not (and may use a different username, 
attempting to connect as guest).

These articles demonstrate how to use `nmblookup` and `smbclient` for 
troubleshooting purposes:

Three of these articles are top google hits for troubleshooting samba. I have 
used the first two links personally to debug Samba within the last 4 weeks.

The reason I have replied to your last two posts saying you haven't 
demonstrated that ... is not personal. My thought process before replying was 
this guy hasn't given us enough information ... I'll ignore this post ... 
well, that's no help to him - having told us so little he'll be waiting forever 
for help  ... hmmmn, I wonder if it's the same guy. And it was you. Sorry 
about that.

The information you have given us is scant, and without more we're left 
guessing around the same as you are. I'm pretty much rehashing the famous essay 
How to ask questions the smart way here, but I'm trying to be more terse and 
less patronising. Sorry if I fail at that latter.

But in my experience, if you make the effort to google, follow the obvious 
solutions and *document fully* that you've followed them (this last part is 
VERY important) in your post to the mailing list then 8 times out of 10 you'll 
solve your own problem without needing to post, and a further 9th time out of 
10 someone will quickly be able to give you a one-line answer showing your 
error.

My experience is that when you take the time to do the documenting stage of 
this - tediously re-doing everything you did before and copying and pasting it 
into an email, making sure you methodology is pristine and clear, then it 
forces your mental processes to slow down. It's frustrating to have to repeat 
things you've already tried and it takes an hour or two, but 8 times out of 10 
the slower pace of re-doing your troubleshooting leads you to discover the 
problem for yourself. 

You should not to be trying to *tell* us you have a problem, you should be 
trying to *prove* to us that you have a problem.

Samba is frikkin' nasty to troubleshoot, it's boring and it's inconvenient, and 
I agree that it seems more so than most other services. I don't really know why 
this is. I too find the logfiles pants. Particularly when it comes to Samba I 
find a real reluctance to sit down, roll my sleeves up and get on with what 
I've just suggested you do, but there's no way to know more without doing so.

Re: [gentoo-user] Samba freakiness; why isn't it reading MY /etc/samba/smb.conf file?

Everything below is correct. What makes you think its wrong?

testparm does not dump a config file, it tells you what setting are IN EFFECT.

writeable=yes and read only = No are exactly the same thing. You used the 
former, samba uses the latter internally and translated it.

There is no problem here.

 At the top there you see that Samba IS started.  Under that you see MY
 smb.conf, and at the bottom you see the smb.conf that's being loaded.
 Nothing really in the logs that would suggest what's going on here:

[gentoo-user] samba vs. cifs

[KH]

Hi List,

I just ran in a problem:

net-fs/mount-cifs (net-fs/mount-cifs is blocking net-fs/samba-3.4.6)

Somba is pulled in by the samba use-flag. The PC only is client to a 
server running samba. Do I need samba for this anymore? More specific 
(don't want to hear moo): Will I be able to mount a samba partition 
without setting the samba use flag and after unmerging samba?


Regards
kh

Samba is the server. The client tools used to be a separate package but
it now looks like you should emerge samba with USE=-server smbclient.

I just enable cifs in the kernel and install the mount-cifs script. That lets 
me mount
remote shares with no trouble at all.

I just enable cifs in the kernel and install the mount-cifs script.
That lets me mount remote shares with no trouble at all.

I don't even install the mount-cifs script.  I simply put the share
definition in /etc/fstab on the client, and then use the vanilla mount
command.  E.g.,

//192.168.0.2/backups/usr/local/remote_backupscifs
noauto,noexec,noatime,nodiratime,user=root,pass=eetoot  0 0

[The above should be on 1 line.]

Note that my real password for root is not eetoot; that is simply a
fake password I set up for Samba shares.

Whenever I need to transfer a backup archive to the server, I simply
issue:
   mount /usr/local/remote_backups
and then copy the data across.

[gentoo-user] Samba-3.3.7

[Alan McKinnon]

samab-3.3.7 just hit the tree.

To prevent a spate of I get these blockers mails, herewith a short 
howot. Hopefully it will get read.

Samba-3.3.7 is a meta package that installs -libs, -client and -server 
packages instead of one huge monolothic samba package. Recent portage is smart 
enough to figure out what to do, except it can't deal with the blocker on 
cifs-mount.

You don't need cifs-mount, that now comes with samba-client. Do this:

emerge -avC cifs-mount
emerge samba

There's lots of USE flags to play with :-)

Well i stuck strace on all the samba related binaries and found that it
was dumping just after reading /usr/lib/gconv/IBM850.so so I tried an
update of glibc and that seems to have fixed it. Strange that portage
didn't pull the latest glibc in as a dependancy.

[gentoo-user] Samba build problem after system update

Hi!

I have problem with installing/updating couple apps after system update. 
After upgrading I've done revdep-rebuild (as usual) and everything is 
ok. I've try to emerge autoconfig but error also occurred. What should I 
do with this? Any suggestions?

Thank you all, I have most of it working now.  Commenting out [homes] made the

commented out [printers], it is still visible in Windows Explorer.

[gentoo-user] Samba basics

[Mick]

Hi All,

This should be easy to answer, but I have had zero experience with Samba so 
far and can't readily find the answer:

I have set up a Samba server for a small office and used 'browseable No' 
extensively in the smb.cfg file, to remove a lot of otherwise visible to the 
Windows clients directories.

This has worked but not enough:  The Windows file manager still displays the 
(Linux) user home directory and a file called printers.  Is there a way of 
removing these two items from the Windows client view?

These are the few relevant excerpts from the smb.cfg file:

# Date: 2007-09-22
[global]
workgroup = Hydrodynamiki
printing = cups
printcap name = cups
cups options = raw
map to guest = Bad User

logon drive = P:
usershare allow guests = No
add machine script = /usr/sbin/useradd  -c 
Machine -d /var/lib/nobody -s /bin/false %m$
domain master = No
usershare max shares = 100

[homes]
comment = Home Directories
valid users = %S, %D%w%S
browseable = No
read only = No

[users]

path = /home/
inherit acls = yes
veto files = /aquota.user/groups/shares/
valid users = geoz

What I'll suggest is not directly related to your Samba config
problem. It is something I found very useful while setting up my own
samba server. I guess there's even a USE flag for it. Its SWAT, its a
web based management program to control Samba settings. It is very
useful and user-friendly.

You should give it a try.

[gentoo-user] samba doesn't map to guest account

[gummnmi-live]

Hi list,

now after 6 hours non-stop trying to solve this issue I decided to contact the 
list!
I actually just want to mount an samba share as guest via mount -t cifs ..., 
but I alway get a mount error 13 = Permission denied.

I tried the following (and many else)

  mount -t cifs //172.16.0.3/ebooks /mnt/ebooks -o guest
  mount -t cifs //172.16.0.3/ebooks /mnt/ebooks -o 
user=someuser,password=somepass

(both also with the sec options none,ntlm,ntlmi,ntlmv2,ntlmv2i or smbfs instead 
of cifs) and always got mount error 13 = Permission denied. I just wanted 
samba to map me to the guest-account but it wouldn't


I then tried

  mount -t cifs //172.16.0.3/ebooks /mnt/ebooks -o 
user=realuser,password=realpass

(where realuser is a privileged user that really exists) and it worked!!


I also tried

  mount -t cifs //172.16.0.3/upload /mnt/ebooks -o guest

(where 'upload' has a force user/group option set. Look below in smb.conf) and 
it worked!! Yes, it mapped me to the right account!!


But no matter what I did SAMBA-WON'T-MAP-MY-ACCOUNT-TO-GUEST on other shares 
than upload!!!


Btw: I can connect with a windows-client and I can connect with smbclient and 
it works like a charm - which makes me much more confused ?:-(

Looks like the configure script was generated incorrectly.  If you are 
using confcache, delete your cache and try again, if that still doesn't 
work, disable confcache and try again.  If you aren't using confcache, 
search for and, as needed, file a bug on b.g.o.

[gentoo-user] Samba and Hebrew File Names

[David Harel]

Hi,


I never could make Linux box use MS-XP files (NTFS) over samba when the 
file names are Hebrew.


open attempts of such file names results in failure (-1) and errno set 
to NOENT (standard message: No such file or directory).


My last attempt is with: 
http://www.iglu.org.il/faq/index.cgi?_recurse=1file=74#file_77


Unfortunately the command make_unicodemap is missing from the package 
(samba 3.0.20b is what I currently have)


I tried the mount with options codepage=cp862,iocharset=iso8859-8

and I have kernel configurations 2.6.17 with:

NLS_CODEPAGE_437

NLS_CODEPAGE_862

NLS_ISO8859_8

NLS_ISO8859_1 (only God knows why I keep this one)

NLS_UTF8

I don't know what more I can do (I'm loosing it).

Heya,

I just tested this out really quick and encountered the same problem.  However 
I was able to mount everything without any problems using cifs instead of 
smbfs.  If you have that in your kernel then you can try it.

mount -t cifs -o user=username if required //system/mount /mount here

With WinXP on the otherside (or any newer samba also) you should not need to 
specify anything other than that above, however to get a better idea of what 
you can do with this you can check out the man page for mount.cifs. 
(man:/mount.cifs under konqueror or man mount.cifs from the commandline.)

Hope that helps you out in your quest.

[gentoo-user] [samba] No write to linux shares

[reader]

I've posted this here because I know the advice on the samba list will
be to update to samba-3.0.23b  from previous posts there, however it
appears there is no ebuild for that in todays sync and I'm not
conversant enough with doing my own to update that way.

Further I'm guessing several people here are running samba-3.0.23a
without this write problem... so rather than argue with developers on
samba list who will just tell me to update and see if problem is still
there, I'm asking for help here from any savvy samba users running the
current build available on portage.

I'm able to see and navigate to the linux shares from a winxp box, but
not able to write to the share.  I've defined the share to have write
abiltity like this in smb.conf:

 [smWinBk]
   comment = 
   valid users = reader Harry
   path = /anex2/win_bk/
   writeable = yes
   guest ok = yes


The log from an attempt to write to the above share shows there is no
write priviledge:

(I'm not sure where the log actually starts for this attempt but will
include a few lines showing the Write=no- (Samba logs are basically
unintelligable far as I can tell))

The line  of note is marked off with asterisks and I've included one
before and after.  Following the write info line, and dozens of lines
further along we finally see the denial, also marked off with
asterisks. 

I've opened a text file named AlienSkin.txt and attempted to alter its
contents using a winxp editor and working from a winxp box.

Can anyone here tell me what might be causing the write failure?  I
see no evidence of authentication or password problems so guessing
that isn't an issue here.

Are you being logged in as a guest for some reason?  Try with guest ok 
= no and see if anything changes.  Don't forget to double check the 
local (unix) permissions on the share folder too.

[gentoo-user] samba log hell

[reader]

I'm having a time getting samba working after having it working for
mnths.  I did do a major update world.  At the end when adjusting
files under /etc/  I rejected the new smb.conf keeping my old config
which is still in place.

It seems something has suddenly chagned whereby I cannot access any
linux shares from windows.

Attempting to get some details of the failure from the logs seem
fruitless since the log output is literally huge and nothing stands
out with big letters `error'.

I'm just not prepared to understand 670 lines of output for one
connection attempt.

And that is with `log level' cranked down to 3.

The following area seems to be important but even this small chunk
defies understanding far as I can see:

The `Sid' lines seem to be telling something but who knows what.  Then
finally it shows a ACCESS_DENIED.

reader and Harry are the only two authorized users
What provoked this piece of log is an attempt from machine `harvey' to
login to samba share on machine `reader'.  The incoming user is also
`reader'.

That was probably a mistake...my experience with the samba ebuild is
that it doesn't want to install it's own private copy of the
configuration, but a modified version of the existing config.  So it
is usually an indicator that something important has changed in the
configuration.

My interpretation of this is that the authentication part went fine,
but this user is not allowed to access the share.  I think we'll need
to see your smb.conf file to make sense of this.  It would also help
to know what version of samba you are running, and what use flags you
merged it with.

[gentoo-user] samba + ldap + script php

[Leandro Melo de Sales]

Hi... I wrote a php script to add users on a LDAP directory. I setup
samba to auth against this directory. If I use smbldap-useradd, samba
authenticate the user, but if I use my script not! My script set all
attributes exactly like smbldap-useradd. What I am missing?

Hi all,

I am trying to let a samba mount on my fstab withopu success,
I got :

ont fstab, if I try to mount /mnt/engsoft, it asks the password and
could not complit the mount.
if I do mount -t smbfs -o username=commodity\\allan //csdc/EngSoftware
/mnt/engsoft it ask for the password and works.

I have I done wrong, or what Can I make to lets this work better.

You can set a password in the fstab.
I use this:

//192.168.0.2/Temp  /mnt/temp   smbfs
user,uid=smash,gid=users,password=  0 0

Works fine here.
Perhaps not the cleanest way.

I do not think you need \\ here.  You only need this when running on
the command line since bash interprets '\' as an escape character, so
you need '\\' to get a single '\;.  In fstab, try commodity\allan

Remember:

# echo \\
\

Also, cifs is better to use unless you are trying to mount something from Win95.

Among other things, it supports files 2G (or is it 4G?).


From /usr/src/linux/Documentation/filesystems/cifs.txt:


 This is the client VFS module for the Common Internet File System
 (CIFS) protocol which is the successor to the Server Message Block
 (SMB) protocol, the native file sharing mechanism for most early
 PC operating systems.  CIFS is fully supported by current network
 file servers such as Windows 2000, Windows 2003 (including
 Windows XP) as well by Samba (which provides excellent CIFS
 server support for Linux and many other operating systems)
 snip
 The intent of this module is to provide the most advanced network
 file system function for CIFS compliant servers, including better
 POSIX compliance, secure per-user session establishment, high
 performance safe distributed caching (oplock), optional packet
 signing, large files, Unicode support and other internationalization
 improvements.

In fact I read on lwn.net that smbfs may be officially deprecated
soon...possibly in 2.6.18.

[gentoo-user] Samba setup, I dunno what to do here. :\

[Teresa and Dale]

Hi,

I have a little network here.  We have a cable modem that connects to a
Linksys router then we have two computers that hook to it and share the
internet.  I have my Gentoo Linux box that I just installed samba on. 
She has a Windoze XP box.  I think I have my samba set up, not real sure
though, but I can not figure out the windoze box.  I can ping the IP
address of her windoze box from my Linux box, no clue on how to do that
on her windoze box so I assume it can see my box too. 

Can someone hold my hand and get this so I can get this to work?  She
seems to get hers pretty buggy and not boot and I just want to set it up
so that she can drop her Documents folder on my system each night for a
back-up.  Sorry windoze, you suck.  LOL

Oh, the router uses DHCP so how do I let it figure out what the address
is?  In case you can not tell, this is all new to me.  Here is the
testparm thing, I did read what I could understand at least:

Oh, if this will work in IE, that would be a HUGE plus.  She still uses
that thing.   pukes   I'm also not sure what to type into IE to get to
my box either. 

Thanks for any help you can provide.  I was following a how to but I
think I got lost, hopefully just on the windoze part.

Windows 2000 and XP both have a number of  UNIX-like network commands 
that you'd be familiar with, such as nslookup and ping - even ipconfig 
(similar to ifconfig).  The options are slightly different though - ping 
/? should help you out.


If you have Samba set up correctly, Windows is effectively zero-conf 
aside from making sure you know what workgroup it thinks it's in.  The 
samba machine will show up in Windows' My Network Places.


snip

Oh, the router uses DHCP so how do I let it figure out what the address
is?
Set your samba up as a WINS (Windows name resolution) server with the 
option wins support = 1 under [global] (AFAIR ;).  The Windows box will 
now be able to lookup your Gentoo box by the netbios name you assigned it.

In case you can not tell, this is all new to me.  Here is the
testparm thing, I did read what I could understand at least:
Let me guess, copied and pasted from some tutorial without really 
looking at it?  ;)  Don't worry, that's a fine place to start.  However, 
if all you really need to share is /mnt/data, you have *way* more stuff 
in here than you actually need.

If you don't plan to use the box as a print server, any and all printer 
stuff can be removed, including both print* sections.  Specialized 
socket options shouldn't be necessary in most typical home setups.  I 
don't know what the 'dns proxy' option does exactly, but I'm fairly sure 
you don't need it.  You should have in here a 'workgroup' entry matching 
the workgroup the Windows machine thinks it's part of.  You also don't 
have a 'security =' line defining the security model to use.  I don't 
remember what the default is.

you.)  No idea what the rest of them do.  What you don't have that you

machine can store its data in here.  Also, you have 'guest ok = yes' and 
no valid users specified, so *any* user



OK, it's now a few minutes later and I've looked these up in man 
smb.conf.  You don't want the msdfs proxy option, since you don't have a 
DFS going (as far as I can tell).  Hide unreadable makes some sense - I 
might start using it myself.  On these other hand, why would you want to 
hide the very files she's supposed to be accessing?  Even sillier with 
the vetoing - now she can't access them at all!  In other words, what 
you have here is a partition with all files *whose path contains* 
'Donna-windoze' hidden, everyone prevented from accessing (writing *or* 
reading) them, and then hidden again because of this.  Since you don't 
have oplocks disabled for the share, the 'veto oplock files' also 

[gentoo-user] samba 3.0.21b issue

[Covington, Chris]

Hi all,

For some reason I can't get net-fs/samba-3.0.21b in an W2K3 AD domain 
to work properly unless I totally reboot the system.  Stopping and
restarting samba doesn't help.  Without a reboot I get these
errors:

After an emerge the following etc-updates need attention:

1) /etc/pam.d/samba
/etc/pam.d/._cfg_samba
2) /etc/openldap/schema/samba.schema
/etc/openldap/schema/._cfg_samba.schema
3) /etc/samba/smb.conf.example
/etc/samba/._cfg_smb.conf.example

Which I replace with the new versions. 

I'd like to upgrade samba on some of my servers without actually
rebooting them.  How can I do this?

 Now I have the necessity to use ap's that are set-up to use 
 192.168.0.nn series ip addresses, so therefore samba does not work properly 
 to share those disk drives.

As far as I remember, samba should be able to talk on all your
interfaces.  In fact, I don't think it binds to any particular one by
default.

Have a look at your smb help under bind interfaces only and
interfaces.

 By default Samba will query the kernel for the list of all active
interfaces  and  use  any  interfaces except 127.0.0.1 that are
broadcast capable.

For me, samba listens on all my interfaces and aliases by default.  I
use iptables to block some interfaces.

Let us know how it goes,

[gentoo-user] Samba !

[brunogola]

Good morning ( in brazil ) guys :-)

I know that here is not the best place to ask this, but i dont know where to 
find information about my dout.

I have a machine running linux, and i'm authenticating  in a windows 2000 
domain (Active directory) using
samba, winbind and kerberos. What i need to know is if there is a way of making 
some other machines
authenticate in this machine, and this machine will ask the password for the 
windows 2000 domain (only for some
users, and the user need to be in the /etc/passwd). Let me explain: i have a 
user 'bob' that is not a user in
the domain, but it has your username and password on my linux machine, so he 
can authenticate. I have a user
bgola who has the username on the AD and on the linux machine, but the password 
isnt on the linux machine, only
on  the AD. He can authenticate too.
Resuming: my linux machine will use the username database from its own but the 
password database from its own
AND from the AD.

Does anyone know if its possible? I saw something about password server @ the 
smb.conf but i dont have ideia of
how it works.

Thanks any awnser and sorry my bad english, i'm trying to learn :-)!

Hi there,

I've done some of this recently, and I don't think you need active  
directory, winbind AND kerberos. My understanding is that all three  
are separate mechanisms for authenticating *nix users against a  
Windows domain.


Active directory is MS's name for LDAP, so if you use that then your  
applications would be compiled using the LDAP USE flag  would treat  
the MS server as an LDAP server. I don't believe its schema's are  
terribly good for *nix users - I use Winbind, which uses PAM to  
appear part of the local authentication process and pass these on to  
the Windows DC.



What i need to know is if there is a way of making some other machines
authenticate in this machine, and this machine will ask the  
password for the windows 2000 domain (only for some

users, and the user need to be in the /etc/passwd).


It would be helpful if you gave an example of which programs /  
services on which machines (A, B and C??) you need to be able  
authenticate in this way.



Let me explain: i have a user 'bob' that is not a user in
the domain, but it has your username and password on my linux  
machine, so he can authenticate. I have a user
bgola who has the username on the AD and on the linux machine, but  
the password isnt on the linux machine, only

on  the AD. He can authenticate too.
Resuming: my linux machine will use the username database from its  
own but the password database from its own

AND from the AD.


I believe that in this situation it would be unusual to give the  
bgola a username on the Linux machine - he has one on the AD, so if  
you use Winbind then he doesn't need one on the Linux box. He can  
have a homedir, since he may need to store files on the Linux box,  
but that's not the same, I think, as having an account.


For instance on my Linux/Winbind machine on an AD:

$ getent passwd | grep -e stroller -e ned
stroller:x:1000:100::/home/stroller:/bin/bash
ned:x:10012:1:Some Geezer:/home/DOMAIN/ned:/bin/false
$ grep -e stroller -e ned /etc/passwd
stroller:x:1000:100::/home/stroller:/bin/bash
$ ls -ld ~stroller ~ned
drwxr-xr-x  3 ned domain users 160 Jan  6 06:32 /home/DOMAIN/ned
drwxr-xr-x  5 stroller   users272 Jan  6 03:58 /home/stroller

Both users can authenticate, depending on how the /etc/pam.d/ 
the_authenticating_service is set up. I use pam_mkhomedir.so to  
create a home directory for any users authenticating via Winbind, but  
beware this only works for services which call PAM session directives.


I used this guide to set it all up: http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/

I'm afraid I'm not sure how much I can help here - it's not something  
I'd do because philosophically I disagree with your approach. That's  
not to say it's not right _for you_ but I wouldn't have a user in two  
places (on the Linux box  the AD). You even have the possibility  
with this approach, I think to separate separate users  passwords  
(for a single auth) between the two boxes. Will VMWare GSX use the ~  
for the user on the Linux box or for the user on the AD to store its  
files?


Personally, I'd have the user exist on the domain or possibly on the  
Linux box, but not on both.


Since you say that VMWare GSX Server (which I'm not familiar with)  
uses PAM it should be possible to get this to authenticate users on  
either the AD or /etc/passwd OR BOTH. It should be possible to use  
some other mechanism - possibly group memberships - to restrict   
VMWare GSX Server log-in rights to or from certain users. Dovecot  
IMAP, for instance, has a deny passdb and also a valid userID  
range. I would personally consider this kind of approach more elegant.


I'm not trying to be snobby saying I wouldn't do it this way, just  
sorry I can't help. Good luck with it.

[gentoo-user] SAMBA Windows native driver and CUPS

Hi to all!!

I'm right now a bit crazy. I'm trying to setup a samba server that is 
sharing a printer, and setup it in a windows client with the native 
printer, as said is this guide 
http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Native_Windows_Printing_with_CUPS/Samba

Well, ldd shows that smbtree depends on popt and glibc. According to gdb,
the problem seems to be in glibc (/usr/lib64/gconv/IBM852.so belongs to
glibc):

$ gdb smbtree

So I decide to downgrade glibc first, but it did not help. Then I downgrade
linux-headers and re-emerge (downgraded) glibc and samba (for sure). Again
without success. :-( I removed -ftracer at first of course.

I'm stuck now. I don't believe that rebuild of whole system (without
-ftracer) fixes the problem because /usr/lib64/gconv/IBM852.so depends only
on libraries from glibc.

$ ldd /usr/lib64/gconv/IBM852.so
libc.so.6 = /lib/libc.so.6 (0x2abce000)
/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x4000)
$ ldd /lib/libc.so.6
/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x2aaab000)
$ ldd /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2
statically linked

What do you think?

Robert




Maybe something in your toolchain is broken.  If you don't have a trusted 
toolchain then you can borrow the toolchain from a livecd to rebuild gcc, 
binutils, and libtool.

Great idea with this livecd. I just replaced /usr/lib64/gconv/IBM852.so
with that one from livecd and it works! When I'll have more time I'll try
to rebuild toolchain as you suggested. Thank You.

Great!  Actually, I meant to say stage3 instead of livecd.  You can chroot into 
a stage3 and use quickpkg to make binary packages out of anything you need 
(glibc, gcc, etc..).  Then install those binary packages on your broken system.

Did you run revdep-rebuild after the update?  That's always a good idea when 
libraries are updated.

Yes, I did. Only openoffice-bin and opera were listed. I've also tried

I posted bugreport about this

I will quote from info gcc

The following options control optimizations that may improve
performance, but are not enabled by any `-O' options.  This section
includes experimental options that may produce broken code.

snip

`-ftracer'
Perform tail duplication to enlarge superblock size. This
transformation simplifies the control flow of the function
allowing other optimizations to do better job.

Rebuild without experimental optimization options if you want real 
support! ;-

Pam and glibc are direct dependancies of samba that you upgraded.  I would roll 
those back one by one to see if that helps.  Do you have binary packages of the 
old versions (from quickpkg or FEATURES=buildpkg)?

Oh, and like Richard said, try some normal CFLAGS before you file bugs :-p.

I read in some forums that downgrading glibc is not good idea. It is true?

install them. But at first I'll rebuild current versions without -ftracer.

Unless you're just experimenting, it's really a bad idea to use fringe CFLAGS 
that most other people aren't using.  If you have have binary packages of your 
old versions that weren't *noticeably* broken then that's a good place to 
start.  In the long run, you want to have most of your packages, expecially the 
core libraries, built with known safe CFLAGS.

In that case I would just rebuild the current version without -ftracer.  In the 
future use quickpkg or FEATURES=buildpkg to give yourself a roll back plan.  
AFAICT downgrading glibc should not be much of an issue in itself because the 
API is still the same and it would just take you back where you were before.
