[Samba] logon script question
Hi list I'm wondering if it and how it is possible to add printers to a workstation with a logon script like mounting shares. I can't find anything about this on the inetnet so is this possible? regards lm -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
[Samba] add machine script problem
Hello I set up a Samba 3 PDC with ldap backend. I created an script that adds machine accounts. First it adds the machine account to /etc/passwd and then it creates the user in ldap with smbpasswd -a -m machine. If I run the script by hand, it works and the account has been added. After that I can join the domain without any problems. Now I want to make this machine account creation on the fly. So I added the script to smb.conf as add user script = /path/to/createmachineaccount.sh. If I try to join a domain with a workstation that hasn't any account, the script creates the machine account but on error occurs that I can't log in because the account doesn't exist. After that if I try to join again, the logon process works because it found the machine account. So I have to join every workstation twice, first for user creation and second for joining the domain. Why doesn't this work in one step? On our old samba 2.2.8a PDC with ldap backend, the whole things worked with the same machine add script. I welcome any suggestions. best regards Lukas -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

You have to set sleep time in add machine script? btw, why not putting posix account in ldap directory intead of file? --beast Hello I added a sleep time to the add machine script but there's no success. How do you mean putting a posix account in ldap instead of file? If I add a posix account to the machine-account, what file won't I need? regards lm -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

The big problem is that I want to keep the profiles of every user. I am a bit surprised by this question since it would seem that someone that has already set up LDAP on both samba 2.2x 3 has a pretty good working knowledge of the differences in schema/attributes of the two and could probably slapcat their LDAP from the 2.2x version (machine accounts) - find replace fix the changes and import them into the LDAP store for 3.0.x Obviously the DOMAIN NAME, localSID, GID's etc will differ and those must also be fixed. There is a section about conversion from 2.2x to 3.0.x in the how-to Craig Hi Craig I think you miss understood me. I still migrated the ldap entries and group entries. But I have the problem with the profiles. I don't want to use roaming profiles so If I join a workstation to the new DOMAIN, there will be created a new profile and I want to keep them. So I've got the idea of shutting down DOMAIN1 and configure the new samba 3 domain to DOMAIN1 and the workstations won't recognize if the PDC is the old samba2 or the new one. Or are there any profile migration scripts or anything else? regards Lukas -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
[Samba] weird home share problem
Hi list During my samba3 pdc ldap backend set up I encountered a new problem. I configured in smb.conf the mounting of the home share as followed: logon path =# I don't want roaming profiles logon drive = H: logon home = \\homeserver\%u logon script = logon.bat [homes] comment = Home dirs valid users = %S read only = No browseable = No Well after logging in it executes the login.bat or the defined one in ldap tree and mounts the \\server\user to H:. Now it works perfectly but the weird thing is, after logging in, I log out and log in again, and the home share isn't there. I restart the workstation and log in again and it isn't still there. But if I log off or shut down the workstation and wait approximate 5 minutes, the home share appears after the login process. It looks like there is a timeout or something else. The other strange thing is, that sometimes, the logon script won't be executed. Are there any problems between the logon script in the smb.conf and the one stored in ldap tree?

[Samba] samba3 smbpasswd search filter
Hi list I set up a samba 3 PDC with ldap authentification. Now i have some troubles concerning the machine account creation on the fly while joining the domain. I'm using the smbldap-tools 8.4 for user creation. According to the smbldap-tools howto and the samba3-ldap howto: http://www.unav.es/cti/ldap-smb/smb-ldap-3-howto.html, the ordinary way of creating a machine account is: /path/to/smbldap-tools/smbldap-useradd -w machinename$ That works without any problem but I can't join the domain. Now I could find the problem why it won't work. If I call smbpasswd to change the machines password in debug mode. I can see that this script has this search filter for ldap entries: ((uid=machinename$)(objectclass=sambaSamAccount)) However the entry that was done by the smbldap-useradd -w hasn't any objectclass sambaSamAccount. And as i thought after adding a sambaSamAccount objectclass to this machine account, I could join the domain. So where's the fault? I think the machine account don't need any objectclass sambaSamAccount so I have to change the search filter for smbpasswd or samba? And how to do this? I really welcome any suggestions best regards Lukas -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
[Samba] Samba and Roaming Profiles
Hi there I've got a question concerning samba and roaming profiles. Is it possible to enable roaming profiles only for specific users? For example that I can enable Roaming Profiles for user1 and user2 but not for user3 and user4.
