[Samba] samba 3.0.33, solaris and vfs problem and solution

Just to save some other poor soul from having to get around a packaging issue on Solaris 5.10. I just installed 3.0.33 and the package put all the vfs libs into /usr/sfw/lib instead of in the right place /usr/sfw/lib/vfs. I fixed by cd /usr/sfw/lib/vfs ln -s /usr/sfw/lib/audit.so.0 audit.so Rep

[Samba] Alternate to 'net ads keytab'?

Hello, We're currently binding hosts to a Windows 2000 domain through a third-party product (that also supports Kerberos/NFSv4) but we also have a need to have other hosts grab their credentials from a Windows KDC for NFSv4 access. While we don't intend to bind these systems to AD, we do have the

[Samba] Vampire ends with a NT_STATUS_SYNCHRONIZATION_REQUIRED error

I am quite desperate. I have been trying to migrate a NT4 PDC to Samba. At the first try, I have used samba 3.2.5, which seemed to complete the vampire process but then I have found that there is a bug that prevents password from being migrated properly (and in fact passwords were not migrated p

Re: [Samba] Domain Privileges on Samba 3.2

I think 3.2.5 has a privileges bug, You'll have to upgrade to the latest in the 3.2 series, probably compile it from scratch. junior carvalho wrote: > Yes, it has the same station join the domains with this user... > > JC > > 2009/3/16 David Markey > > >

[Samba] Making Samba 3.2.3 and ACL work

Hello! I'm running samba 3.2.3 on my Ubuntu 8.10 server installation. I'm trying to use ACL in order to get extended user permission administration, but cannot make it work. My samba shares are on a ext3 partition, and i have enabled ACL in fstab. setting and getting ACL permissions on my files

[Samba] smbclient with Kerberos works, smbclient with NTLM does not?

Hello, I am investigating some strange authentication problems with our network. I am attempting to access a share on a DC with smbclient. If I authenticate with kerberos (kinit, then smbclient -k) then everything works fine. If, instead I use -U administrator -W DOMAIN, or just -U administrator,

[Samba] Samba server is 'joined' to a Windows AD, my client is a stand-alone system

We have a samba system which is a 'member' of a Windows 2003 Active Directory. I can connect to the samba share from another member of that domain without problem. When I try to connect to that share from a stand-alone system, I get the following error: The security database on the server doe

Re: [Samba] User home directories on a windows server question.

Ya that's not really an option, I don't control the AD servers, so no suf or schema extensions. But what I'm finding make it pretty clear there is no way to replace NFS with SMB for a large multiuser system. I find that very disappointing given the age of the samba project. I really figur

Re: [Samba] Postfix and Samba best practice

Or should I try to share out a different directory via Samba. I.e. Leave the mail in /home/username/.Maildir and get Samba to share out /home/username/samba for example? You can also continue your current setup and just use Samba's veto files directive in the home directory share to hid

Anyone? Hi folks, I have an issue that has me shaking my head. Once a workstation has made the initial connection to a host, things seem to work well for a day or so. However, if the resource hasn't been accessed in a while, and then a connection is retried, this following message is returned

[Samba] Postfix and Samba best practice

Hi, We have a server which is going to be a Samba file server and a Postfix server where the users will access their mail over IMAP. We normally prefer to use Maildir storage as it seems to be recommended over mailbox - for me, for example, I am subscribed to a dozen or so lists and have te

Hi you are probably right: we work with FreeBSD, which has a number of max groups of 16. I guess you refer to Linux which has that value set to 65536 (but I am not sure). I will ask the mantainer of the FreeBSD port if he has some solution specific for FreeBSD. Thanks for your attention V

Re: [Samba] Patch for NGROUPS_MAX on FreeBSD with more then 64 groups

Hi yes FreeBSD has a getgrouplist call. I think extending temp_groups is not a problem since sys_getgrouplist returns -1 only if the array is too small but we are doubling the size of the array from 32 to 64. If the array is too small we try realloc that and redo the getgrouplist and only if that
