[Samba] Weird issue with Windows 2003 server connecting to samba
Dear all, Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to fix the following conundrum We have the following setup Using samba version 2.2.8 on a server with three network cards 192.168.0.241/24 10/100 Local network for administration 192.168.10.241/24 10/100 ASP client network 192.168.11.241/24 Fibre network for link to websites and data backups Samba server is configured to use all 3 interfaces. Linked to this server we have a Windows 2000 server 192.168.0.254/24 10/100 Local network for administration 192.168.11.254/24 Fibre network for link from websites and data backups X.X.X.254 Public ip address for web access There is an entry in winnt/system32/drivers/etc/hosts that points to the 192.168.11.241 address of the samba server. On this box all requests from the website to the samba server connect , as they should, through the fibre network. Here is where the problem begins We have added a windows 2003 server to run websites configured as follows 192.168.0.250/24 10/100 Local network for administration 192.168.11.250/24 Fibre network for link from websites and data backups X.X.X.254 Public ip address for web access There is an entry in winnt/system32/drivers/etc/hosts that points to the 192.168.11.241 address of the samba server. Connections from this server choose any interface i=on the windows server to make the connection, chosen randomly from all three. We have changed the bind order of the network cards to place the fibre card as the first card. We have entered manual metrics, assigning 1 to the fibre card and 20 to the other 2 cards. We have added a persistant static route to the samba server through the fibre interface card. None of this makes any difference. The windows server still randomly selects an interface to connect through. We have tried re-installing the operating system on another server, just incase, but this produces the same results. We need to tie this to the fibre network for performance.

[Samba] inetOrgPerson vs. sambaSidEntry for Computer accounts in LDAP
I am looking at my computer accounts that were created using smbldap-useradd.pl -w workstationname. And I see the following objectClasses: top inetOrgPerson posixAccount sambaSamAccount I understand I need one structural objectClass, but don't understand why inetOrgPerson is being used. Couldn't I use sambaSidEntry instead? sambaSidEntry is structural, and only requires sambaSID. Any insight is welcome.

[Samba] integrating active directory with samba 3.0
Hi can some please help me integrate samba 3.0 with active directory. I'm very confused about this process so far my research led me to the following article http://asia.cnet.com/itmanager/netadmin/0,39006400,39081966,00.htm. However other research led me to the use of winbind for this setup. The confusing thing is that the article did not mention winbind. I would like to have it where we maintain one set of user accounts that we create in our active directory database we use both windows 2000 and 2003 server. With this single login users will be able to login to redhat Linux boxes with there same login name that they use to login to there windows workstations. This login will also give them access to samba share on our redhat 9.0 server. Any help with this would be much appreciated. __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

[Samba] Samba Browsing and BDC +LDAP
Hello everybody. I have two questions today. I am in the middle of moving my NT4 domain over to SAMBA 3.0 with ldap. I get some errors while I am browsing computers in the new SAMBA domain. For example \\it1132 is not available. You might not have permissions to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions. An internal Windows 2000 error occurred. I will also get the same message with this new error. The system cannot find the message text for message number 0x%1 in the message file for %2. Strange eh? I am later able to go back to that same workstation and click it again then it works. My second question is one that I have seen pop up on the list occasionally but have never seen a definitive answer. When using a BDC what do I use for the ldap admin dn = ? The BDC is also a Slave LDAP server and the ldapsam is pointing to localhost. I have heard that you should not use the manager dn, but should use the updatedn specified in the slapd.conf file. This error might be caused by the above question. On my BDC's I occasionally see these errors.

[Samba] Bummer of an error.
I am getting a bummer of an error. In user manager I can sucessfully modify users including group membership. But when I double click on the groups (on the second pane below the users) and try to add or delete a user from a group I get this error The group name could not be found. The scripts are defined in my smb.conf as follows add user to group script = /usr/local/sbin/smbldap-groupmod.pl -m '%u' '%g' delete user from group script = /usr/local/sbin/smbldap-groupmod.pl -x '%u' '%g' I can run /usr/local/smbldap-groupmod.pl -m spencer Test and it does the add to ldap and the delete works well too. But in user manager its broken. Anyone have any ideas? I am willing to try anything, a level 10 log is too much information to parse through, but if I know what to look for its easier.
