[Samba] Winbind cache
Hi all, we are having some troubles with the integration of some Solaris 9 Sparc servers on a Windows 2003 Server Active Directory domain. When we made the tests on a Solaris 9 Intel server, everything run successfully. After that we run some group membership tests, just changing users from one to another group on the W2K3 Server. We've seen on those tests that winbind was caching the group membership for some users (sometimes just for one user). The tests we have done from a local user on Solaris 9 server: 1 Run 'groups aduser', the group membership for aduser is shown. 2 Change 'aduser' membership on the AD server. 3 Run 'groups aduser', the group membership for aduser is shown but is not reflecting the changes made. 4 Restart winbind setting cache time to zero. 5 Repeat steps 1,2,3 and now it reflects all changes made on AD server. We have read the documentation and found two options: · Setting the cache time: winbind cache time = 0 (We don't know if zero is zero or it is unlimited time) · Running winbindd: winbindd -n (it is no caching mode) We still don't know really if the problem is from Winbind but the tests seem that setting out the winbind cache, the group membership resolution is more effective. The questions are, does someone know how the winbind cache works and how it could be effectively shut down to be sure it won't cache anything anymore? should we set the cache time to zero, another value, run winbindd with -n, do both things (cache time = 0 & winbindd -n)? is there another site/doc where we should rtfm for winbind? did someone had similar troubles? By the way, the nscd is not running on the Solaris 9 server. Thanks! -- --- Samuel Partida Amores ISOTROL. Área de Seguridad.

Re: [Samba] Strange problem - Samba 3.0.23 on Solaris 9 Sparc
Hmmm, i'm going to check but that user is not logged, what we do is to login with an operator account, next we do a su - root and there we do 'groups $user'. Thanks!

[Samba] Strange problem - Samba 3.0.23 on Solaris 9 Sparc
Hi, we have deployed successfully Linux clients to an Active Directory domain with Samba 3.0.23. We had no problem with the ads authentication, winbind, kerberos, and id resolutions. Late we did the same on a test Solaris 9 x86 server, with a successful result again. Our problem begins with a production Solaris 9 Sparc server, everything runs succesful, but there is just one user on the Active Directory that when we change some group membership, the changes are not reflected on the Solaris 9 server (verifying with groups command)... is very strange because for other users it is working perfectly. We thought that the winbind cache was implicated so we deleted the files and ran the daemon in no-caching mode, without success ¿Does someone has any clue? Thanks! P.D.: Attached are the config files. -- --- Samuel Partida Amores ISOTROL. Área de Seguridad.

[Samba] Application Server
Hi there! Is possible to install software on the Samba Server and make users run that software from their workstations instead of installing locally? I know that it could take down the network perfomance but it could be useful for some little software like 7-zip, yahoo messenger, etc... Thanks.

[Samba] Spanish Domain Group Mapping
Hi there! I have a Samba Domain at my office, we have some mappings from unix-nt groups but I haven't tried to map the native NT Domain Groups, they are named in english at Samba and our XP Pro workstations are spanish so, should I get rid of those predefinited NT english Domain Groups and create them in spanish or it won't affect to the workstations?? For example: Domain Users = Usuarios del Dominio Should I get the NT GID of the Domain Users group, then delete it and create a "Usuarios del Dominio" with that GID or it is don't needed? Thanks and excuse my english! Samuel Partida. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
[Samba] Samba PDC and NT Domain Policies on XP Professional.
Hi there! How can I manage NT Domain Policies on a Samba PDC? How can I make the XP Pro workstations get those policies applied? Which tool do I need to generate those policies? Thanks!!!

[Samba] Avoiding the desktop.ini notepad popup on startup, and other hidden files.
Hi there, we had some problems with that issue, i know it is covered and i solved it with veto file = /*ktop.ini/ etc... But now i'm thinking about it again, it's because Windows XP saves some metainformation in some hidden files, one of them is desktop.ini, which is very annoying because notepad is opened on every user session, but, there is another file, thumbs.db, it becomes visible on remote shares and roaming profiles. My question is: it is possible to mantain the functionallity of those files while make them hidden? Maybe with hide files? If I use hide files instead of veto files for desktop.ini will dissapear the problem of the notepad pop up? I'm going to make another Samba server for testing those things but I'm short of time now so if someone know the answer it would help a lot. :) Thanks and excuse my english!!

[Samba] Samba acting as ADS Server
Hello, i'm new in the list so hi everybody! I think that this question could be asked many times, is possible make Samba act as ADS server? Maybe with the Samba-TNG fork or with some CVS version?
