Re: [Samba] remove wins entries - samba 3

2005-07-07 Thread Eric Hines

Geoff,

Sorry about the hour; I didn't realize you were still up--I went to bed

A number of questions, and some updates.  I can find no evidence of 
active named logging, although I did find one log with named entries.  
In particular, what is the relevant log(s)?  There is no syslog or 
system log.  Running a FIND on *log didn't turn up anything even 
remotely close.  I've obviously not got logging turned on properly


I also notice that, where John's example has several instantiations of 
named running, I have only one, and it's very difficult to terminate 
that one--I have to kill pid to do it.  Service daemon restart works 
fine for all the others, and service named start works fine, too.  Just 
service stop/restart do not work--the latter hangs on the stop part. 

In the files below, why all the changes to mail from lserver1?  I 
thought from John's examples these were supposed to be the server name?

instead, tell lserver1 not to look to the router/firewall, but only to 
look to itself (/e.g./, via the dhcpd.conf or via lserver1's System 
Settings|Network GUI, using the DNS and/or hosts tab)?  Or would that 
lock lserver1 into itself, never to get access to the Internet?


I've done some other poking around in response to the DNS doc for which

I have the same thing for eth1 (there are two NIC chips on the

dhcpd.leases has pserver1 (my print server) at 192.168.1.96, even though 
it's hardwired via its own setup functionality to a static address of 
198.162.1.10, and it responds to pings at the .10 address.


Finally, I made the zone file changes, and I still cannot ping lserver1 
or lserver1.test.biz--unknown host in both cases.

You had an MX record in there.  If you are going to learn to configure an

No, I asked if you could turn off the DHCP server on your router / firewall
completely and use the dhcp server on your samba server to deal with your
local networks needs.

 Can I, instead, tell lserver1 not to look to the router/firewall, but
 only to look to itself (/e.g./, via the dhcpd.conf or via lserver1's

As people have said to you *many* times the easiest way to do this is by
using a static ip on your server.  USE A STATIC IP! CONFIGURE THINGS

This is why I said to you originally to use the gui.  It's easier to do it
with the GUI, then poke around your system and see what's been changed.  You
need to read more about the basic configuration of your Linux flavour before
you start on these tasks.  That way you would know exactly what files
control what configurations and where exactly to find them.

It looks like your server doesn't think it's the authoritative master for
your internal DNS.  Or something is wrong with your zone files.  Read the
DNS docs again. And again. And again

Where is my machine that I am pinging from pointing to in terms of DNS?
Does that DNS server have the records to do with my lserver1 samba server?

Re: [Samba] remove wins entries - samba 3

2005-07-06 Thread Eric Hines
I have the following setup.  It's not fancy as I'm just trying to learn 
Linux and Samba.  My test LAN consists of a Win2k, SP4 box (mustelidae) 
and an FC3 (kernel 2.6.11-1.35_FC3) server (lserver1) running Samba 
3.0.14a.  A Samsung printer also is present via a print server plugged 
into its back.  I can print to it from lserver1, although the URI for 
the printer uses its IP address, so this probably doesn't mean much.  As 
mustelidae also can be on a larger home LAN with access to the Internet, 
and lserver1 also has access to the Internet, the whole arrangement sits 
behind an 8-port Linksys router/firewall.  As I have only a 2 box set 
up, I'm only struggling with one subnet out of the two that John has in 
his BYEXAMPLE book (adding a second subnet ought to be a piece of cake 
after I get this part running and understood).


My DNS server sits on lserver1.  I'm trying to ping lserver1 from 
lserver1.  With nsswitch set only to files or only to wins (/e.g./, 
hosts: files), this is successful.  With nsswitch set only to dns, I 
cannot get name resolution, although I can successfully ping by IP 
address.  I can ping lserver1 by name or by IP successfully from 
mustelidae.  

Where is lserver1 pointing in terms of DNS?  How do I tell?  At this 
point, all I can say is that I've set up named.conf (and dhcpd.conf) as 
John has them in his Chapt 3 example, with the sole differences being 
that I'm using one subnet and not two (a DHCP issue), I'm calling my 
server lserver1.test.biz, vice diamond.abmas.biz, and lserver1's IP 
address is 192.168.1.103, vice the one John's using in his example.  
Aside from these edits, named.conf (and dhcpd.conf) are cut and pastes 
from John's latest on line.  Is /etc/resolv.conf part of this answer?  
That's the file I can't keep from being overwritten by dhclient-script, 
even with the two dhclient-enter-hooks examples posted earlier today.


Same, probably not very responsive, answer for whether this DNS server 
has the records to do with lserver1.  The router/firewall has its own 
DHCP server, and it gets its config from our ISP and from a list of DNS 
servers that were loaded into the router/firewall when it was 
provisioned.  lserver1 gets it address from this router.  There's been 
some discussion earlier of the wisdom of this, but it's a stable 
address, if not static, as it's a long-term lease.  I do intend to put 
lserver1 onto a static address, but only after I've worked out all the 
files that have lserver1 stored by its current address, so I can keep 
them current.  Lserver1's address hasn't changed in months, and as I'm 
on it daily, its address won't change anytime soon under the present 
arrangement.


My named.conf and dhcpd.conf are built from John's example, as mentioned 
above.  /Etc/hosts has the IP address/name pairs he calls for.  I think 
that means I'm running a local name server. 

As you can see, I have very little understanding of what's going on 
here; I've rather slavishly followed John's example, and I'm clearly 
making mistakes I'm not recognizing.

The over view is this:
The way out of this mess from my point of veiw is to switch off dhcp from
the router/firewall.
Your samba server needs to know it can be a dns server.  It finds this out
from the resolv.conf file. Make it have a static ip.
Any windows machine that is obtaining an IP address via DHCP needs to have
the wins server ipaddress handed to it otherwise it will use broadcasts.
You can see how to do this if your samba server becomes the dhcp server on
your lan, from john's section on configuring the dhcpd.  It sounds like the
samba server is correctly configured for wins. (really you should show us
your resolv.conf and your smb.conf + your nsswitch.conf)
Most real servers have static IP's for fairly obvious reasons.
And then other things should start to fall into place for you.

Can't get Local DNS to Run [Was[[Samba] remove wins entries - samba 3]]

2005-07-06 Thread Eric Hines
Further on this.  I just ran an ethereal trace on an attempt to ping 
lserver1 from lserver1, and it appears that my DNS isn't staying local 
at all, but I have no idea what's gone wrong (other than my 
/etc/resolv.conf file).  The trace (I'd include the relevant parts, but 
I can't get it to save anything in textual form) had lserver1.test.biz 
going out through the router/firewall for resolution.  As the firewall 
strips the local domain stuff and appends instead the ISP's domain 
stuff, the request, going to the ISP, was for lserver1.hsd1.etc.etc.  
And of course, the answer came back, Who?  Hence no resolution.


I'm not sure of the role of /etc/resolv.conf in all this, though.  When 
I do edit that file per John's example and don't reboot, but merely 
restart everything (named, dhcpd (I don't know about the client side of 
this), smbd, and winbindd), the resolv.conf remains as I edited it, but 
I still can't get local name resolution.  Whether I have the IP address 
in John's example, or lserver1's address, I get no name resolution.  
Also, with only the domain parts (e.g., test.biz test.us) of the machine 
names present in the search line I can't restart smb--it just hangs.  If 
I put an FQN in the search line (lserver1.test.biz), which is what 
dhclient-script does when it rewrites the file, then smb restarts OK.  
Also, John's example has several instantiations of named running; I have 
only one.

 How?  I can't switch off the router/firewall.
 
No of course not.
You mean to say that you can't get access to a web interface or commandline
on the router to configure it?  You might need to look at getting better
hardware / strongarming your ISP for info on the router if it is ISP
provided.


Can you show us your zone files for test.biz  192.168.1.0?

What do your logs say for bind starting up?  Can you restart bind and watch
your logs?  Do you have any errors for it?

It's our own Cisco/Linksys router/firewall.  I'll have to figure out how 
to do this on a per-machine basis.  There are others also that are 
protected by the router/firewall.

Attached.

If you mean winbind, a tail -f on log.winbindd just showed it starting 
up again n response to a service winbind restart.  log.smbd just showed 
smbd restarting after a restart.  log.nmbd showed nmbd getting the 
shutdown signal, then starting back up and becoming the domain master 
browser.

[Samba] remove wins entries - samba 3

2004-10-18 Thread Gerald Griessner
Hi,
I'm using samba 3.0.7 as file server and WINS server.
We have a primary domain called BIKER which is working great.
Anyhow, for some testing purpose we are using different Workgroups now and 
then.
The problem is, those Workgroups stay in the Network Neighborhood 
although they are offline for quite a while.
When I'm moving a Workstation from a workgroup to the domain, it still 
stays available in the Workgroup.
Additionally when we switch off a Domain member for a few days it still 
stays in the Domain.

This is quite annoying since we now have tons of entries currently not used 
any more.
I was browsing the Net and the Mailing lists, ...
The only solution was remove wins.dat and browse.dat and restart samba
Despite that I'm not very happy with this solution in a productive 
environment, all the entries came back.

Is there a possibility to limit the network neighborhood to one 
domain/workgroup?
What is the best solution to permanently remove a workstation from the wins?

Thx in advance
 Gerald
p.s. here is my config (the relevant parts, ...):
wins support = yes
wins proxy =  no
domain master = yes
local master = yes
preferred master = yes
os level = 50
name resolve order = wins host
max ttl = 7200
max wins ttl = 7200
min wins ttl = 3600
dns proxy =  no
