[Samba] Changing Password on LDAP PDC with external script returns 'username or old password is incorrect'
Greetings list! My issue: Samba version : 3.4.5 OS : Ubuntu Karmic I have Samba configured as a PDC with an LDAP (OpenLDAP with smbldap tools) backend. We have our PDC set up (with smbldap-tools) to expire passwords every 45 days. For quite some time this worked very well. Recently though, two thin... 15 Feb 2010 14:20

[Samba] SAMBA CUSTOM LOGGING
Hi, I wonder if anybody made patches for samba to do custom logging. I want to do auditing in this format |DATE TIME| |Client IP address| |Username| |Share| and divide the logins to two parts eg.: /var/log/samba/logins-success.log /var/log/samba/logins-failed.log I don't care about the file transfers. ... 15 Feb 2010 14:20

Setuid bit always set on Vista mount
post your smb.conf Robert Edgar wrote: Files on my Vista mount always have the S mode (setgid bit?) set according to ls -l. This is a security hole and causes other problems. I can't clear the bit with chmod; in fact the results of doing chmod don't make any sense to me (I'll be glad to provide examples)... 15 Feb 2010 14:20

[Samba] Debian Lenny: Samba PDC + LDAP
Hey out there. I have to get my PDC to work now, and I'm so close to desperation that I have taken my self in looking at a windows server. My problem is that I have to get roaming profile for some Windows XP Pro clients to work, and I have a Debian based server solution. The problem is that I can't see where I d... 15 Feb 2010 04:20

[Samba] samba, ldap, kerberos
Though I am not new to samba, I am new to this so will really appreciate guidance. If I want to implement a single sign on scheme using openldap and kerberos on a linux server, how can samba be integrated into this scheme? As far as I can understand from the docs, the discussions on samba and kerberos deal with... 15 Feb 2010 02:10

[Samba] "unix extensions = on" is incompatible with Mac OS X Finder
There's a known incompatibility issue between Mac OS X Finder and "unix extensions" in Samba, Finder ignores the POSIX ACLs if the extensions are turned on (no problem with the command line interface of Mac), the only working solution I've seen so far is turning the extensions off but that causes problems to other Samb... 15 Feb 2010 00:01

SAMBA and Windows 2008 TSE licence Server
You are probably right. Remember that a Samba domain is based on a Windows NT technology, more than ten years old. Almost everything Microsoft now relies on Active Directory. Create an Active Directory domain with a Windows domain controller, and make your Samba Server a member. Samba works beautifully in an AD doma... 15 Feb 2010 02:10
