Re: [Samba] Help with samba implementation
If you are doing anything samba related on AIX, I highly suggest that you look at the pware site. http://pware.hvcc.edu/ there are some docs on setting up Bill's pWare compile of samba on AIX here: http://pware.hvcc.edu/documentation.html And you can join the pWare mailing list here: http://lists.hvcc.edu/mailman/listinfo/pware Bill is usually very helpful in getting people's difficulties ironed out, and has the most current, stable versions of samba compiled and working for 6.1. -=Andrew -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
[Samba] Help with samba implementation
I subscribed to the list and am awaiting a response. Thanks Best Regards, Roxane Eliff DADS/SEO AIX Administrator Office 301-763-7488 Mail Stop - 2K278B - Forwarded by Roxane B Eliff/DACMO/HQ/BOC on 01/21/2010 11:19 AM - From: Roxane B Eliff/DACMO/HQ/BOC To: samba@lists.samba.org samba@lists.samba.org Cc: Roxane B Eliff/DACMO/HQ/b...@boc Date: 01/19/2010 04:03 PM Subject: I am writing from the US Census Bureau in Washington, DC. There is an immediate need for samba to be implemented on 3 AIX lpars. Attached is the smb.conf file and testparm for dadsp003. Here is the scenario: 3 AIX, 6.1 lpars, dadsp001, dadsp002 and dadsp003. Installed samba 3.0.24 from aix6 cd. Currently installed on dadsp002 and dadsp003. Configured only on dadsp003. The local networks on all 3 lpars are 192.168.0 and 192.168.1 I have 2 shares configured. The daemons (smdb and nmdb) are running and users can connect to the shares on dadsp003. How do I add/configure the other 2 lpars (dadsp001 and dadsp002) so a user can login to dadsp001 or dadsp002 and have the shares available. We do not use ldap on the AIX servers. I am using smbpasswd to configure users as you will see in the smb.conf.dadsp003 file. We have the net use command for dadsp003 working via ssh login from AIX to windows. In addition to any configuration, my guess would be that the same net use command can be changed to point from the correct server. I have no idea if I am asking the right question(s), but I have to start somewhere. The developers/testers are way behind in their work waiting on the samba configuration. HELP ASAP please. I have read and googled to the point of confusion. A phone call would be great, but if email is the only way, then I will take what I can get.

Currently installed on dadsp002 and dadsp003. Configured only on dadsp003. That is a *seriously* antique version of Samba, you may have some compatibility issues with newer client OSs. pWare provides much more current versions of Samba for AIX http://pware.hvcc.edu/ Otherwise these is nothing different about setting up Samba on AIX vs. other operating systems. The local networks on all 3 lpars are 192.168.0 and 192.168.1 I have 2 shares configured. The daemons (smdb and nmdb) are running and users can connect to the shares on dadsp003.

I am using smbpasswd to configure users as you will see in the smb.conf.dadsp003 file. You will need to add identical entries to all three smbpasswd (given that you have no network backend for authentication / identification). We have the net use command for dadsp003 working via ssh login from AIX to windows. In addition to any configuration, my guess would be that the same net use command can be changed to point from the correct server. I have no idea if I am asking the right question(s), I'm not sure what from AIX to windows means. but I have to start somewhere.

Avoid all documentation except http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/ and http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-Guide/ which really do lay it out step-by-step, especially the Guide. Start with http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-Guide/simple.html. A phone call would be great, but if email is the only way, then I will take what I can get. Do you have the smbd nmbd services running?
