[Samba] Samba Windows resolve issue
I am having an issue with a new samba setup. My gateway server (H1 - the new setup) is running Samba and acting as my networks wins server. It also houses my email and web server. It is connected to a private network to another server (H3) running Samba acting as my main file server. The issue that I am experiencing is that H3 can view our webpage that is hosted on H1 but my Windows machines that are connected to H3's subnet can not. If I try to ping H1 from H3 it resolves the name properly. If I ping H1 from the windows boxes it returns the external IP address and times out on the requests. i hope that I have presented that clearly. H1 is fully qualified in the host files on H1 and H3. H1's smb.conf [global] workgroup = admin server string = Web Server netbios name = h1 netbios aliases = mailserver interfaces = lo 192.168.4.0/24 hosts allow = 127. 192.168.1. 192.168.4. 192.168.5. 192.168.6. log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log max log size = 50 encrypt passwords = yes security = user passdb backend = smbpasswd smbpasswd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd domain master = no local master = no os level = 32 preferred master = no wins support = yes name resolve order = hosts wins lmhosts bcast wins proxy = yes dns proxy = yes H3's smb.conf [global] netbios name = h3 workgroup = ADMIN server string = Administration Samba Server security = user hosts allow = 192.168.4. 192.168.5. 192.168.6. 192.168.1. 192.168.0. 127. log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log max log size = 50 passdb backend = smbpasswd encrypt passwords = yes smb passwd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd interfaces = 192.168.4.3 192.168.6.1 127.0.0.1 remote announce = 192.168.5.255 192.168.4.255 192.168.0.255 local master = yes domain master = yes domain logons = yes logon path = logon home = logon script = %U.bat wins server = 192.168.4.1 wins proxy = yes dns proxy = yes add machine script = /usr/sbin/adduser -n -g machines -c Machine -d /dev/null -s /bin/false %u I left out the Samba shares but I think any main configurations are present. This machine is a rebuild and I didn't have this issue before. The main difference is that this server now has two external facing nics to two different interent connections. I don't think routing is the issue because H3 can resolve H1's name correctly and display the web page. Thanks for any help anyone can give me! -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
[Samba] Authentication across two samba domains to a client share
I am a sysadmin at a small private school and I am trying to run a program across two different domains. Here is the basic setup. I have a staff and a student domain controlled by Samba on two different servers. Some staff can authenticate on both servers (using the same user name and password) but no students can log into staff computers. All client computers are running Windows XP Pro. Recently we purchased a network upgrade to our library card catalog. The library computer is on the staff domain. The program targets a shared directory on the library computer. The share is set up as open as I can make it. So that all users can read. That is all the program requires. The program works fine from any staff computers. The program works fine from student computers that a staff person is logged into. The program pops open a windows authentication window if a student is logged into a student computer. Security is set to user on both servers. I tried setting Map to guest = bad user but it did not seem to make any difference. Is there something I am missing? I really need to find a way to make this work since the point of it was mainly for the students to be able to search the card catalog from the student computers. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have googled but I can't seem to hit upon the right combination of words to bring up useful information.

No in the man page it talks about using map to guest when using security = user or domain. Using map to guest = Bad User should map the user into the guest account when the user is rejected. I don't even find invalid user = guest. I did try it though but it did not work. Is there somewhere other than the man pages I should be using for configuration information?

[Samba] RPM reporting running two versions of Samba at the same time
I was trying to work through a PDC problem that I was having with 3.0.23a noted in bug 3964. I didn't know how to apply the offered patch and my distro, FC4, has not offered an update yet to 3.0.23b so I thought that I would revert to a previous version that is not affected by this bug. I forced an install of 3.0.23 samba, common, and client and now rpm reports that I have two versions of Samba running at the same time. Samba seems to be running, shares are available and access is restricted properly. I havn't dared try to join the domain until I figure out what is really going on on my system. When I inquire of rpm what is installed this is what I get. # rpm -q samba samba-3.0.23a-1.fc4.1 samba-3.0.23-1.fc4 I have run rpm --rebuilddb and I get the same result. Any insight or explaination is greatly appreciated. Thanks All! Doug -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
