[Samba] Trouble with domain logins
Sorry but I am a newbie! I can’t get this straight in my head! What do I need to do other than smb.conf file to setup WindowsXP users for domain login? The problem is that root is the only one that can login to the domain, and I get the profiles login folder error. I have already patched the XP registry. I am using Webmin 1.0xx on RH 8.0 with a full custom install… Thank You, John Berry, Owner Lantex Voice & Data Systems
[Samba] DNS error connecting to Domain
Hello, I have a Windows 2000 Pro SP3 Laptop, and a RH 7.3 server running Samba 2.2.5. One day it refused to connect to the domain, said it wasn't available, couldn't access \\server01\user\profile directory, and refused to browse the samba server. Reboots didn't work. I unjoined the domain, and it complained that it could not remove the machine account from the server. After I rebooted it, I tried to join the domain again, and got a message (sorry, but this was a few hours ago) something like this: DNS lookup error. Unable to lookup the Domain controller in the Active Directory. Cannot contact domain. I'm stuck. All the other machines on the network continue to run correctly. To me it appears that for some reason the laptop thinks the samba server is a 2000 AD domain, which won't work correctly without DNS. Anyone ever seen this before, or know why all of a sudden this laptop refused to browse or re-join the domain?

[Samba] winbind, getent and wbinfo
Guess I'll ask again . . . [Samba] Winbind and groups Bub Slug [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sun Oct 13 02:35:01 2002 Previous message: [Samba] Strictly Private. Next message: [Samba] Winbind and groups Messages sorted by: [ date ] [ thread ] [ subject ] [ author ] Hi all, I'm trying to get a samba server which is all by itself, No Windows DCs, or even windows shares at all, to play nice with Linux clients. The server is authenticating Win9x, NT and 2000 clients fine and dandy, and now I have need to add linux clients to the scenario, and have dicovered an issue I can't seem to work through. Perhaps someone can help? On the linux client, I can login as a user that exists only on the samba server (TEST+testuser) , except I get the following message: id: cannot find name for group id 1 When I do "wbinfo -t" I get back: Secret is good. When I do "wbinfo -u" I get back: TEST+testuser When I do "wbinfo -g" I get back: TEST+Domain Admins TEST+Domain Users When I do "getent passwd" I get: root:x:0:0:root:/root:/bin/bash bin:x:1:1:bin:/bin:/sbin/nologin . . cut for brevity . . bub:x:500:500:Bub Slug:/home/bub:/bin/bash TEST+testuser:x:1:1::/home/testuser:/bin/bash So far so good, until I do "getent group", which returns: root:x:0:root bin:x:1:bin . . cut for brevity again . . bub:x:500:bub So my net groups "Domain Admins" and "Domain Users" don't show up when I getent group, and there is no other network group that winbind can map to gid 1 when TEST+testuser logs in to the Linux client, and I suspect this is why I get the ID message on login (?) Once again, I am not using any Windows 9x, NT, 2000 servers, the Linux Samba server is the only PDC (and the only DC). Can anyone offer some help aside from the stuff that's around on the net. It all seems to deal with using Samba in a Domain with an actual windows DC, not as a standalone server being a DC. I wonder why my client linux box can't see the domain groups on login, and while I'm on the subject, where do "Domain Admins" and "Domain Users" come from in the first place, and how do I add, delete or modify domain groups or how do I make groups on the Linux Samba server display to linux clients? Both server and Client use RedHat 7.3 (Stock Kernel) Samba wasn't installed with the redhat setup, instead I downloaded the tarball for 2.2.5 I compiled the server software in the source directory with: ./configure make make install The server is set up as a PDC with an smb.conf file that looks like: [global] workgroup = TEST netbios name = LINUXSRV interfaces = 127.0.0.1 192.168.240.20 encrypt passwords = Yes domain logons = Yes os level = 64 preferred master = True domain master = True wins support = Yes [homes] path = /home/%U read only = No browseable = No [netlogon] path = /usr/local/samba/netlogon browseable = No I've configured the linux client and added it to the domain by: Setting it's host name to linuxclient, Compiling the samba software from source (2.2.5) in the source directory with: ./configure --with-winbind make make install make nsswitch Copied libnss_winbind.so to /lib Created a link: ln -s /lib/libnss_winbind.so /lib/libnss_winbind.so.2 copied pam_winbind.so to /lib/security Created an smb.conf file for winbind that looks like [global] workgroup = TEST winbind separator = + winbind uid = 1-2 winbind gid = 1-2 winbind enum users = yes winbind enum groups = yes template homedir = /home/%U template shell = /bin/bash winbind use default domain = yes wins server = 192.168.240.20 Created a init script to fire up winbind edited /etc/nsswitch.conf to change the lines: passwd: files winbind shadow: files group: files windbind added these lines to /etc/pam.d/login: auth sufficient /lib/security/pam_winbind.so account sufficient /lib/security/pam_winbind.so session required /lib/security/pam_mkhomedir.so skel=/etc/skel umask=022 did a: /sbin/ldconfig -v | grep winbind which returned: libnss_winbind.so -> libnss_winbind.so I started up the winbindd daemon on the client. Then on the server, I did: useradd linuxclient$ passwd -l linuxclient$ smbpasswd -a -m linuxclient useradd testuser passwd -l testuser smbpasswd -a testuser On the linux client I did: smbpasswd -j TEST -r 192.1

There are only a few people with the time to play 'wack a mole' with the contuing stream of questions.

[Samba] winbind wbinfo -t secret is bad
Quick run down of my setup: NT 4.0 PDC, Samba RedHat 8.0 with samba 2.2.5-10 on it.(Also used RedHat 7.2 with 2.2.6 final as well) with the exact same results. When I run wbinfo -t, I get Secret is bad 0xc18b. I have been trying to figure this out for a few days now and can't get it working correctly.

Re: [Samba] Please help, going mad with permissions
It maybe isn't the problem now, but it may be that your OS has a cron job, utility, or patch that modifies the permissions of files/directories under "/dev". This is because it may assume that all files/directories there are devices. For that reason alone, I would definitely find another location for this share. Just my 2 cents, and good luck!

[Samba] non-English filenames (one more attempt)
Speaking of the low answer-to-question ratio, here's a question I posted a week ago but did not get a single answer. Please help me! Before posting, I've searched lots of docs (unsuccessfully), and the problem is critical for me. I have a Win98 machine with Russian file names. As suggested in many places, I put the following into smb.conf: client code page = 866 character set = KOI8-R preserve case = yes short preserve case = yes default case = upper case sensitive = yes Still, the filenames as viewed from Linux are unreadable (and files are unaccessible). For example, the Russian name of the "My documents" folder becomes "Н╚© Я╚╛:03c0~:0393:03b4", a mix of wrong characters and some hex codes preceded by ":". The system is Mandrake 8.2. Everywhere else Cyrillic letters show up fine, including a local fat32 partition, so this is not a problem with Cyrillic support. I have tried samba 2.2.3a and then 2.2.5, but the problem persists. Just in case, here's the line from fstab: //winbox/C /mnt/c smbfs uid=bulia,password=,user,defaults,fmask=0666 0 0 I tried to add iocharset=koi8-r to this fstab line (as I do for local fat32 partitions) but it didn't help. -- __ Sign-up for your own FREE Personalized E-mail at Mail.com http://www.mail.com/?sr=signup -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

[Samba] Two nmbd processes on 2.2.6
Hello, I have downloaded and compiled 2.2.6 to replace my 2.2.6pre. I spent a large part of the day debugging the startup script because it seemed to always be starting two nmbd processes instead of one. Eventually I tried running just /usr/local/samba/bin/nmbd - and still got two nmbd processes. Is this correct behaviour? On the first server (Dell 4600) I thought it might be because it has one of the new hyperthreading BIOS which makes Linux believe it has dual processors. The machine also had two NICs - one for each card? However, I tried in on my old PII 233 single processor and single NIC and sure enough two nmbds get started. Have I missed something? Are there supposed to be two running these days? I simply compiled with the usual parameters (./configure --with-smbmount --with-utmp --with-msdfs --with-automount) and have made sure only one nmbd exists on the system. Any ideas anyone?

In the smb.conf file [globals] section add: wins support = Yes Then configure all you PC's TCP/IP stack so that the IP address of the WINS server is the IP address of the network interface of your samba server.

RE: [Samba] something wrong with the list (or its members)
It is something setup in 'majordomo' -- if a list owner wants replies
to go to the list, by default, they can specify the reply-to address
under list configuration.
Standard practice is to not set the reply-to field on announce type
lists
and to set the reply-to field to point to the list on discussion list.
The
idea being that on a discussion list, you don't usually want replies to
devolve into a bunch of individual conversations when a reply is also
likely
to benefit other people on the discussion list.
Seems this list should be set to reply to list, by default -- since if I
have a problem, I might first be likely to look through the archives,
but
if replies to problems were sent off-list, they won't be available -- so
you lose the collective solutions provided by list members (who then
have
to provide the same answers over and over again).

[Samba] Mapping drives from W2K domain controller
I am having a strange problem. I can't map drives from my linux server to my W2K domain controller. It keeps asking me for a user id & password and no matter which user id & password I use I get a message telling me that the user id and/or password is invalid. I can map drives from the linux server to another W2K server that is in the same domain, but is not configured as a domain controller. I am using samba 2.2.5 on the linux server. W2K SP1 on both W2K servers. The samba server is configured to using the W2K domain controller to validate user ids & passwords. BTW I can map drives to the domain controller from a SCO UNIX machine which is running samba 2.2.2. Any help is appreciated. Stephen W. Boyd e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ O (_^_) o o--- .

Have you tried releasing the system from the domain (change it to a workgroup) and then rejoining it to the domain? I had that with one of my systems and after that all was well.

That's why I don't use it. -Original Message- From: Dr. Bernd Zimmermann [mailto:bernd@;schaumburger-tracht.de] Sent: Friday, October 18, 2002 4:22 AM To: Greg S.

The person who works with the XP computer changed something, he cant remember - perhaps by accident. An from now on the XP computer does not recognise the Samba anymore. The samba also does not show up in the network neighborhood. All registry hacks are set, no firewall, all ports,ip,protocols are open, but no chance of seeing a samba server. So do you have any hints whats going on with XP when it refuses to workd with Samba ? I had a similar effect once playing with XP and Samba at home. At first everything was OK, but then I klicked in the network assistent on the button "Home network installation" an from that point, no way of getting in touch with samba.

Re: [Samba] something wrong with the list (or its members)
You all are overlooking his point. The point he was raising is that he believes a lot of people are NOT hitting reply all and just doing a reply back to the message sender, so a lot of answers are not going to the list. He is not saying he can't reply to the list. he is saying since the default of just "reply" is to the message sender and not the list, a lot of messages are not making it back.

[Samba] protocol question
I'm trying to understand odd behavior in my LAN. I'm running Samba 2.2.5 and trying to run it as a PDC. I have 1-2 win98 clients, 1 XPSP1 client, and 1 Win2kSP3 client. I've managed to add the XP and 2K machines to the domain successfully, but still haven't finished configuring logins to work correctly -- something about my user not having permission to write to \\server\uname\profile even though permissions on the various login paths and and netlogin shares would seem to be in order -- but I can play more with these. My main question concerns ethereal trace output: Quite often when My w2k client is doing a lookup on my local group, I see: w2k -> server NBNS "Refresh MYGROUP <1d>" server -> w2k ICMP "Destination Unreachable" or more often: w2k -> server NBNS "Name query NB MYGROUP <1c>" server -> w2k ICMP "Destination Unreachable" (repeated several times per cycle) So why is the supposed (?) PDC, "server", sending back ICMP packets -- I thought ICMP dest unreachable's were for IP routing? Why am I seeing them in response to a NBNS refresh and name queries? Is this too technical for this group? It's sorta a 'newbie' question, since I'm just starting to understand this stuff, but am not sure where the tech/regular list dividing line is Thanks, -linda -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

[Samba] Samba 3.020 and Win2K as PDC
Hi, I have a Win2K with Kerberos turned on, acting as PDC on one side (ZEUS). And a RedHat 7.2 box on another. I've manage to set Kerberos correctly (found with kdbg that I need to specify -U in net ads join). I've tryed everything, with no success. After that, I have passed some of the tests from the HOWTO book, namely I did not passed the Test 4. It seems that nmbd is not working, while smbd seems to be fine. Is there any doc or how-to that explains how to push nmdb to work ? Any hints plas ? Any help pleeeaseee ? I'm attaching tar.gz with logs and configuration files. Thank you for any response.

Re: [Samba] WIN40 printer driver on Solaris not being installed?
hello samba gurus: Well, I didn't hear back from anyone, and I haven't had any luck in my own trials. Since my original message, I have built 2.2.6 (final release) and have had the same problem. Does anyone have any ideas, suggestions, pointers that would help me track down this error and resolve it? To recap, the basic problem is this: I built samba 2.2.6 for Solaris and installed it with a printer share. I then used the rpcclient to install the printer drivers. Not all of the driver files get installed into WIN40/0 (they stay in WIN40) and when I attempt to install the drivers from Win98 machine, samba's log begins to list the first few files in the driver then says there are 0 files for this driver. However, this all works fine when I build the package for debian. any assistance would be appreciated thanks ~John On Monday 14 October 2002 01:22 pm, John M Wright wrote: > I am having problems with the driver installation for WIN40 (9x machines) > in Samba 2.2.5 / Samba 2.2.6pre2 on a Solaris 8 machine.

When I hit "reply" it goes to Yura. There should be a reply-to-list
but I'm not sure how to set that up in mailing lists.
So probably (my theory), people need to know their MUA and a
list-reply ("L" in mutt).

When I hit "reply" it goes to Yura. There should be a reply-to-list
but I'm not sure how to set that up in mailing lists.
So probably (my theory), people need to know their MUA and a
list-reply ("L" in mutt).

Re: [Samba] NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED - Samba on Mandrake 8.2
Message: 7 Date: Thu, 17 Oct 2002 12:31:39 -0400 From: "Albert E. Whale" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Organization: ABS Computer Technology, Inc. To: Samba <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: [Samba] NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED - Samba on Mandrake 8.2 I am attempting to integrate a Linux Samba Server with an NT 4.0 PDC. Ideally I am looking to authenticate the users on the PDC, and then permit access to the Samba Shares on the Linux Box. You probably want to setup winbind. Winbind is available in Mandrake 8.2, you may need to install it: # urpmi samba-winbind You will need to uncomment the winbind sections of the default smb.conf file, set it to 'security=domain', set the workgroup, and join the domain: # smbpasswd -j -U For more information (note that most steps should have been done for you in the 8.2 RPMS) see: http://ranger.dnsalias.com/mandrake/muo/connect/csamba5.html#winbind Note that Mandrake 9.0 allows you to join it to the domain (with full winbind setup) during installation (probably only in expert installation, choose "windows domain" as authentication method where you enter your root password). The latest samba RPMS for 8.2 (2.2.6 is available at http://ranger.dnsalias.com/mandrake/samba) have a better example smb.conf example configuration for winbind, /etc/samba/smb-winbind.conf. All that you should need to do to it is change your workgroup name). I have several issues, but the one which is presenting itself currently is when I attempt to Browse the PDC using smbclient. I get the following: smbclient -L dumbo You haven't specified a username, by default smbclient uses the username you are currently logged in as. Do you have a domain account with the same username? added interface ip=192.168.0.11 bcast=192.168.15.255 nmask=255.255.240.0 session request to DUMBO failed (Called name not present) Are you sure you're using the right netbios name for the machine (only applies to error above).

Netbios and DNS names should preferably match (either using DNS aliases/CNAMEs etc) Why Do I get the NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED message? Because your machine does not have the guest account enabled, and you haven't connected with a valid username/password. I get this same message when I attempt to use the Samba Share as an NT PDC User (using the Username and password as well). That would probably be because you either haven't joined the domain, or don't have existing usernames on the samba server.

Re: [Samba] MS Access and Samba
When the database is located on a Windows NT4-Server, the changes can be seen immediatly on the other 3 pcs. There is also a window popping up which announcing a sql-error but this seems to have no negative effect on the database. At a test-run under Win2k-Server the same error appears but also the changes can be seen immediatly. So in general words spoken, is the database saved on a windows machine it works as it should, is it saved on samba share no changes can be seen until the pc the changes are made on closes the database.

[Samba] something wrong with the list (or its members)
I've noticed the list has pretty low answer:question ratio.
I tend to think that many replies go directly to people who post the
questions and those people never bother to share the answers with the
community. I don't think this is fair so we may want to do something in
this regard. We either need certain rules that will imply posting of
summaries (as {SUN,LINUX}managers lists do), or the list maintainers
should consider setting up reply-to-list option.
I'd like to know what people think about it...

Whay are you mounting a FAT32 filesystem? If you want your clients to see the filespace as having FAT symantics then all you need to do on your shared resource (ie: in the share definition in smb.conf) is say "fstype = FAT". It is far preferable to use native Linux file system types that have a higher level of integrity than to use native FAT32.

Smbsh does not "map" an SMB resource into your file system but works more like automounter does. When you run smbsh you c an cd to /smb where an 'ls' will list the domains and workgroups, cd to a workgroup and you see the machines in that workgroup, cd to the machine name and you see the shared resources, etc...

[Samba] Slow transfer file between Windows and Samba PDC (2.2.3a)
Hello everyone I have a quite weird problem, and I've try a lot of possibility without any success. It's about file transfert beetween a Windows 2000/98/ME and a Samba PDC. I've made some tests with a Win 2K PDC too. Oh yes, English isn't my native language, so please excuse me in advance for my *bad* english. I'll try to be the most complete I can, so this post may be a little long. Customer environment: Intel(R) Pentium(R) III CPU family 1133MHz (Dell) with a Red hat 7.3 OS (Samba 2.2.3a), with 256Mo of RAM, scsi0 : Adaptec AIC7XXX EISA/VLB/PCI SCSI HBA DRIVER, Rev 6.2.5 aic7899: Ultra160 Wide Channel A, SCSI Id=7, 32/253 SCBs less than 10 Windows 2000/ME/98 connected The first problem was the crash of Excel when someone try to open a XLS file located on the PDC. According to the log file, it's a oplock problem (I saw posts about it and 2.2.6pre1 version, seems fixed in the pre2, right?). I've just disabled those system. Works fine. The Second problem is the slow transfer file between Windows (don't seem related to the version) and the PDC. The lucky transfer rate is 8Mbits/s, which is quite slow on a full 100Mbits/s LAN. Is "mii-tool" give true information? I've got this: eth0: negotiated 100baseTx-FD flow-control, link ok Sound good, huh? Since people there are basic end user, I can't do any other test (FTP one, NFS one, and so on). But the funny thing is that a copy windows<->windows is far faster (more than 2 times faster). Same Switch. Well, STFW, see FAQ, got some infos about MTU and SO_SNDBUF stuff. I've change the SO_SNDBUF option, and use 16384 for value. A little better, but still slow. I haven't found a clear information about the MTU configuration and changes we must do for Samba. More, I read that changing MTU under Windows 98 is quite risky, and since they are basic end users, I don't want to risk anything (unless it's the only *working* solution to go faster). If someone have some pointers about MTU stuff (samba, linux kernel, windows), It may be usefull for me, feel free to post them ;). Well, at this point, I'm puzzled, and I can't make interesting test. (I'm not on the customer location) Then, since I've set up a Samba PDC at home, I've done some test here. Home: Laptop Celeron 366, 192Mo acts as Samba PDC (Debian Woody 3.0), through a Xircom Ether 100/56K modem Desktop celeron 800, 320Mo, RTL8139, Windows 98 Hub 100Mbits/s Got *exactly* the same thing: According to iptraf, I'm stuck at 8Mbits/s for transfer files. If I change SO_SNDBUF and use 16384, the transfer file slow down at 3Mbits/s. uh oh. sound bad. I'll do some other test this week end in my home configuration (FTP, NFS transfer files) to see if this is not related to a connection problem. (I'm not sure, but I think the NFS transfer is more likely 4MBytes/s than 1Mbytes at home) Here, *really* puzzled. Why samba is so slow? A weird idea comes in my mind: What about Windows 2000, as a PDC, performances? At work: Duron 700, 256Mo RAM 100Mb Windows 2000 server, acts as PDC. Launch a 100Mo file copy on PDC. It takes 2 minutes. Uh oh? It's less than 8Mbits/s transfer rate... Sound strange, huh? Well, let's test the NAS server (Dell PowerVault 705N), it takes 40 secondes. Sound better. Let's try the Windows 2000 computer of my colleague: 12 secondes. Doh! If you search "PDC slow transfer file" in groups.google.com, you'll find a various bunch of problems, both samba PDC or Windows PDC related. But without any clear solution. All the file transfer have been done from a windows computer TO a PDC computer. If I work with a big file located on the PDC, the saving is slow too: the progress run fast, but the program is freezed until the save is done. I use OpenOffice (at home) with a 18MB file and Word XP (at work) with a 5MB file. I use Explorer for file transfer too, which is better than other programs: the progress bar is real. Then, several questions come in my mind: Did you ever experimented such a problem? Is a "normal" transfer rate for a PDC? related: is a non-PDC samba computer run faster? Is someone have some clues to help me pointed out the misconfiguration? (I'm not responsible for the Windows 2000 PDC configuration, that's why I'm puzzled with this results) The purpose of this post is to do the right configuration for Samba as a PDC, at decent speed, not to configure our Windows 2000 PDC (none of my buizness, in fact) Oh yes, Is someone, who had problems with oplock before 2.2.6, got a working version of oplock system with this fresh version? (I don't want to change the customer version if this is useless for the problem they have) Thanks in advance for your help. here comes the relevant (I Think) pieces of configuration: [global] client code page = 850 encrypt passwords = Yes obey pam restrictions = Yes pam password change = Yes socket options = TCP_NODELAY IPTOS_LOWDELAY SO_SNDBUF=16384 SO_RCVBUF=32 768 character set =

Joe, Suggest you contact a local PC reseller and ask for the price of MS Windows 2000 Advanced Server and the price of Windows 2000 Server Client Access Licenses (CALs). Assume you find that MS Windows 2000 Advanced Server will cost you $1000. Assume that MS Windows 2000 Server CALs (Client Access Licenses) will cost you $40 per PC. If you have a multi PC network, you would spend: No. of Servers X $1000 = Server license costs No. of PCs x $40 = Client Access Licensing costs Now, find out what will be the cost of Software Assurance and add that to the mix above. The result is what you pay for MS Windows at the back end. Now add to that the cost of IT staff to manage the server installation. To compare the cost of Samba: No. of Servers X cost of (Linux _or_ FreeBSD) = Server OS costs No. of PCs x Nothing for CALs = Nothing Add cost of staffing to keep systems alive, bingo - you are home! But what value are you going to place on: 1. Higher and more reliable uptime? 2. Ability to change code to do what you want? 3. Better ability to configure the servers - ie: Samba does great server consolidation - ie: Samba allows multiple personalities per server 4. Total control of feature creep. ie: With Samba you upgrade only if you want to. There are still servers running samba-1.9.15p8 (Dates to around NT3.5) 5. Samba gives you more performance out of your hardware - lower hardware costs Maybe some other budding list member can give you more factors to consider. - John T. -- John H Terpstra Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

We're running an Access database from Samba, 3 users, with no problems. Just upgraded from Samba 2.2.5 to 2.2.6. Linux 2.4.18. Oplocks are switched off for all shares. Access 98 and 2000 from NT4 and W2k workstations. We migrated from NT4 server to Samba a few months ago. Is your database split into a backend and frontends? Every machine here has its own frontend (also located on the Samba server for convenience of upgrading) and a shared backend. Sharing frontends can be problematic, whatever server OS you're running, as Access saves various settings related to the session in this.

RE: [Samba] MS Access and Samba
I develop large laboratory databases with MS Access. All my back end servers are Samba 2.2.4 on FreeBSD. The key to multi-user success lies in these configuration points: 1. Always run the Access database application, (Forms, code, queries, ...) on a client workstation and have the back-end data on the server. The application container links to the shared tables on the server. 2. Oplocks = no 3. Kernel Oplocks = no 4. Level2 Oplocks = no 5. Blocking Locks = yes 6. Locking = yes 7. Strict Locking = no 8. Share Modes = yes Success will be improved if you follow the pessimistic locking model for most of your data access. This means that the edited record is always locked. You should do this regardless of whether you use Windows or Samba on your back end server. This also applies to point number 1.

RE: [Samba] MS Access and Samba
Not sure if this has anything to do with Samba: I try and stay away from Access but a few years ago we had similar problems with Access on a Novell server. It kept corrupting and looking at the Access documentation it seems that Access is not a multiuser database unless you program it to be. So you need to manually code all the database locking etc - an out-of-the-box one is only good for single user.

Okay, thank you, I think I finally get how this works: When figuring out what groups jarboed is in, first /etc/groups gets hit for secondary groups. *After that, winbind gets hit to see if jarboed is in any other groups.* When "winbind use default domain = no" in smb.conf (the default) winbind doesn't bother checking because there is no domain associated with "jarboed", but when "winbind use default domain = yes" in smb.conf, winbind will hit the PDC to determine what groups MY_DOMAIN+jarboed is in and tack on the additional MY_DOMAIN+Domain Users, etc, groups to the list of secondary groups for jarboed? And for system accounts that don't exist on the PDC (mostly all of them), winbindd_getgroups just spits up the error that there is no such domain user (like "root") to be in any groups? ~ Daniel -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

Re: [Samba] Netlogon no longer works in 2.2.6 with W2k client
Hi Just got this quote from the Samba-BDC-HOWTO, "Note that in the latest Samba 2.2.x releases, the machine SID (and therefore domain SID) is stored in the private/secrets.tdb database" Therefore you might have had a new secrets.tdb generated depending on how you upgraded. Which probably means you now have a new machine\domain SID which is why you had to rejoin all of your Win2K clients. Also if you have a BDC set up you'll have to re-export the PDC's machine.SID from the secrets.tdb and install it on the BDC. Might be a good idea to start backing up the secrets.tdb file in case you need to rebuild your domain. I'm still trying to work our what each tdb stores and until I know I'm making sure I have backups of them all and keep them when upgrading. Although I'm not sure if the Samba install keeps, overwrites or backup these tdb files (I use the rpm install).

[Samba] nmbd and the Domain Master Browser
My server's /var/log/syslog file is filled with: Oct 18 13:07:38 bangkok nmbd[13656]: Unable to find the Domain Master Browser name BANGKOK<1b> for the workgroup BANGKOK. The network is a bunch of Windows 98 workstations and a Linux server. We have Samba set to be the WINS server, but there is no "DOMAIN MASTER BROWSER" as such at all, anywhere. When we installed the server a month ago we set up Samba to use computer name "BANGKOK" in workgroup "BANGKOK". But Windows 98 seemed to hate having a computer and a workgroup with the same name, so we changed the Samba computer name to "SBANGKOK". The file /etc/samba/smb.conf (as maintained by webmin) contains these lines (as shown by fgrep): workgroup = BANGKOK netbios name = SBANGKOK /etc/hosts contains: 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost 192.168.172.28 bangkok.adamsint.combangkok Apparently nmbd is wasting a lot of CPU time trying to find a computer named "BANGKOK". How do I tell nmbd to stop looking for this lost love? -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
[Samba] Netlogon no longer works in 2.2.6 with W2k client
Hi, We've got a fairly simple samba setup (no ldap/winbind etc) and until recently everything worked fine (using samba-2.2.5). But after switching to samba-2.2.6 w2k-clients fail to run the netlogon-scripts. When i look at the client it says: logonserver=\\ BTW. The output of "nmblookup -S CPB" (to me) seems to say that CPB is the logonserver. querying CPB on 172.16.255.255 172.16.16.9 CPB<00> Looking up status of 172.16.16.9 FILESERVER <00> - M FILESERVER <03> - M FILESERVER <20> - M ..__MSBROWSE__. <01> - M AGENDASERVER<00> - M AGENDASERVER<03> - M AGENDASERVER<20> - M CDROMSERVER <00> - M CDROMSERVER <03> - M CDROMSERVER <20> - M CPB <00> - M CPB <1b> - M CPB <1c> - M CPB <1d> - M CPB <1e> - M DATASERVER <00> - M DATASERVER <03> - M DATASERVER <20> - M PRINTERSERVER <00> - M PRINTERSERVER <03> - M PRINTERSERVER <20> - M WEBSERVER <00> - M WEBSERVER <03> - M WEBSERVER <20> - M Any hints???

[Samba] Re: windows xp connect to share - cannot change user name from guest
Well I'm a bit embarassed. The problem turned out to an old version of samba running on the server. It's running samba 1.9.18p8. I'm not a system admin on the main server here. But I tried connecting to another box running samba 2.2.3a, and found I could type into the username box just using a normal network neighbourhood connection. The username field was *not* greyed out, like it was when connecting the same way to the older version of samba. I switched back and forth several times and found it was repeatable. It's also independent of whether the passwords are encrypted or not on the samba 2.2.3a server. Sorry for bothering the list earlier with an out of date version of samba. Perhaps though this might help others diagnosing this problem in future. Cheers, Matthew. On Tue, 3 Sep 2002, matthew arnison wrote: > Hi > > We've been using samba at my work for ages.

[Samba] samba & fat32 lockup my linux machine
My problem is that whenever I try to copy a large file from a client machine to a fat32 partition (ext3 works fine) mounted under samba, the host linux machine will lock up completely. I can, however, copy small files to the fat32 partition just fine (ie. 1 KB to 1 MB size file), it's only when I copy files that are about 200 MB and larger, that the computer will lockup. NAT still functions, but telnet will no longer work and the host keyboard becomes completely unresponsive. All the host processes lock up (web server, swat, etc), and I can only press the reset button to get the machine up again. I've searched the mailing archives for a solution, but only found a person with a similar problem who received no responses. I've used the linux kernels 2.5.30 to 2.5.43, and have tried samba 2.2.5-2.2.6, and the problem exists through all of them. I can ftp large files to the fat32 partition just fine, so I really believe the issue lies in samba. I cannot switch the partition to a different filesystem, because I need the data on the drive to be accessible by Windows 2000 as well. Also, I need to use the linux 2.5.x kernel, because 2.4.x does not correctly support my network cards, and ide controller. I'd really appreciate anyone's help on this issue. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

[Samba] Windows PDC with Samba PDC
Hi! We have a windows NT PC as our PDC. Currently planning on migrating to UNIX / Linux. For testing we have put up a Linux Red Hat 7.2 System, with Samba 2.2.5, which I configured on it. Now the problem arises when the users for Linux want to access to Windows NT computer. If they are not users on the NT system they are unable to do so. I learnt that we can make the Samba machine join the Windows Domain by making use of the commands: smbpasswd -j NTDOM -r NTDOMPDC where the Domain name is NTDOm and the name of the domain controller is NTDOMPDC. Will this work? I just want to make sure before embarking on this issue. Thanx for the help. Gagneet PS: Requires a machine account on PDC SAM database and the changes to the smb.conf file..
