[Samba] The 6 (or 7) "R's" or Windows support

2005-09-21 Thread smc+samba
I've been joking for years about the "6 R's" of Microsoft voodoo problem solving: 1)Retry the thing that didn't work 2)close and Restart the program that isn't working 3)Reboot 4)Reconfigure the program in case the configuration mysteriously changed or got "corrupted" and try again 5)Reinstal

[Samba] ADS mode - differences between W2K and 2003?

2005-07-21 Thread smc+samba
I'm having a bizarre problem doing authentication via winbind against a Windows 2003 server. Aside from changing the hostname information, etc. as appropriate for krb5.conf and smb.conf, the configuration I'm using is one that I copied from another server that is successfully authenticating aga

Re: [Samba] Samba vs ActiveDirectory Kerberos error message

2005-05-25 Thread smc+samba
I'm seeing the same problem on 3 different Samba versions (on two different distributions) as well. I poked around the HOWTO's and such but so far haven't found anything to indicate what the problem might be. It doesn't seem to prevent authentication, but it creates a huge amount of noise in th

[Samba] Samba "spamming" Windows ADS server event logs with "pre-authentication failure"?

2005-05-19 Thread smc+samba
It appears that for some odd reason, all of the samba machines on our network are causing frequent "pre-authentication error" events for the machine name to clog the event logs on the "ActiveDirectory" server. What's strange is that everything otherwise appears to be working - users can connect

[Samba] "net rpc share (hostname)" doesn't work?

2005-05-05 Thread smc+samba
I'd swear I ran into this before on another of the "net rpc (something)" commands, but don't recall now. It seems as though if I try to run the plain "net rpc share (hostname)" command to enumerate (hostname)'s shares that it doesn't work. My best guess is that net is insisting on seeing a sub

Re: [Samba] Unable to set ACLs with Samba 3.0.11, near publication deadline

2005-03-08 Thread smc+samba
I'd be interested in finding out whatever information comes of your query as well - I think I'm running into the same limitations. In short, I've added a Samba file sharing server to an existing "ActiveDirectory" domain. It seems to work fine, except that the Windows administrator there is com

[Samba] Can Windows Domain admin grant "write" access WITHOUT "full control"?

2005-03-06 Thread smc+samba
Setting up the initial connection to ADS was so easy...but now I'm stuck. I'm trying to show off how seamlessly Samba integrates into an existing Windows "Active Directory" domain, but permissions issues are making this look much more complicated than it ought to be. I'm trying to get file shar
