[Samba] SMS 2003 and Samba
Hi, I was wondering if anyone has played with Microsoft's SMS 2003? I've got a Samba 3 PDC using an LDAP backend, and a Windows 2003 server running SMS 2003. The SMS 2003 setup moans that it cannot verify the service account in the domain. Its reasons are it cannot connect to the domain as either the user account does not have access to the domain or the domain controller is down. I know the PDC is up and running and I have logged in as root to prove that I have full access. I was wondering if this is a Samba compatibility issue or whether it's something else.

[Samba] Problem with privlidges after applying patch

RE: [Samba] Samba PDC and logon.bat questions
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hello, Hi Since logon.bat is being processed by a windows client machine that has no idea what to do with Samba variables, how do you avoid having to create a separate logon script for each user? To flesh this out bit, I am attempting to setup a very common set of shares, they are; 1) a personal share, /home/username 2) a group share, /home/samba/group 3) a public share, /home/samba/public. And my login script is very basic and looks like this: Net time \\sambahost /set /yes Net use h: \\sambahost\username file:///\\sambahost\username Net use g: \\sambahost\group file:///\\sambahost\group Net use p: \\sambahost\public file:///\\sambahost\public You want something like this: net time \\sambahost /set /yes net use h: \\sambahost\homes net use g: \\sambahost\group net use p: \\sambahost\public But there username varies as does the group name, so for now I have setup the netlogon share like this: [netlogon] Path = /home/samba/netlogon/u% Change this back to path = /home/samba/netlogon as for the group share, create a share like: [group] comment = group share path = /home/groups/%G providing you have put users in to appropiate groups it should work. And in the /home/samba/netlogon directory, I have a directories for each user and a logon.bat. I'm sure there's a better way to do this, could someone help a guy out? delete all the user directories and have a single login.bat file Second question: When using roaming profiles, and I have a global parameter like this profile home = \home\samba\profile and I logon using an XP I can't say i've ever seen this parameter!!! You want this in your global section: logon path = \\sambahost\Profiles create a share called Profiles [Profiles] comment = profile share path = /home/profiles/%u you'll need to create the /home/profile directory and the user directories under it. Make sure they have the correct permissions for each user. Thanks so much, Mike Partyka The majority of this is covered in the samba HOWTO collection.

[Samba] Using WMI Classes to join worksation to domain
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1
Hi,
I have been working on a Kix script to automatically change the workstation
name and join the workstation to the domain. I have written most of the script
(which works quite nicely) except the joining to the domain part. I have been
using WMI classes to change the worksation name, and was hoping to do the same
with the domain join. The workstations are WinXP.
The code i'm using is
$objWMIService = GetObject(winmgmts: + {impersonationLevel=impersonate,
authenticationLevel=Pkt}!\\.\root\cimv2)
$colComputers = $objWMIService.ExecQuery (Select * from Win32_ComputerSystem)
For Each $objComputer in $colComputers
$ERRH =
$ObjComputer.joindomainorworkgroup(domainname,password,domainname\root,,1)
Next
if $ERRH 0
color r+/n
AT (2,6) [ERROR: DOMAIN JOIN FAILED - + $ERRH + ]
exit
else
color g+/n
AT (2,6) [INFO: Workstation joined to domain LONGHILL]
sleep 2
endif
This always fails with error code 1326 (username or password invalid). However
looking at the logs on the Samba server, it tells me that the authentication
for user root was successful.
Is this a fundermental mistake of mine, where Samba doesn't support these WMI
calls, or is it something I'm overlooking.
Any help would be good

My best suggestion would be to use the /etc/hosts file. This file (if you have added the entries) will list IPs against hostnames. This will allow you to use programs like ping from the command line using hostnames, and you can use it to cross refernce your squid logs. If you don't fancy setting up a hosts file, you could set samba up as a WINS server. Then you can cross reference the wins data against the squid logs.

Via policies, just like with a Windows DC.
Could you please elaborate ?
The only thing I could find is the windows Slow network setting
supposed to disable network share checkout in case of slow network,
timeout, etc. There is a registry setting enabling enforcing slow
network for good.
Samba has got csc policy, but frankly, I do not quite get how to use
it. Could provide some clue in here ?

RE: [Samba] films on Desktops and roaming profiles
Hiya,
If these are NT4, Win2K or XP machines you can use the NT4 policy editor to limit the
size of the profile. Once you have created the policy file you just need to put it in
the netlogon share and all should work. I believe there are detailed notes in the
Samba Howto collection and probably the example docs by John T.

Hi John, I'll try and get some documentation written on how to use regedit32 to modify the default user profile. This is basically changing the default registry every user gets the first time they logon to the network. I'll put a bit of background info on the network and how we use shares for storing stuff.

After playing around and reproducing this with another Samba domain member, I realized that it might have to do with the fact that Samba appears (at least in the ServerMgr) as an NT Server and not as an NT workstation. Thus, restricting the workstations to which a user may log on may prevent them from logging onto the samba servers altogether. So my questions are as follows. 1. Is there a workaround for this problem? 2. Is there a way to force Samba to present itself as a workstation and not a server (assuming that this would fix the problem)? 3. Is this problem one that has already been identified (and is thus being worked on)?

[Samba] Samba-3.0.1pre1 and LDAP
Hiya, I have recently upgrade samba to 3.0.1pre1 from alpha3-19. The upgrade went well with no real problems, except . I have noticed today that the load on the LDAP server is extremely high. CPU usage on slapd is anywhere between 10%-80%. At one point to day everything came to a grinding halt. The only difference between I can think of is the samba upgrade. This is with an average load of about 300 users. Can anyone think why samba is causing slapd to max out??

I dont think its a OS problem, Im using suse 8.1. If you log into the windows box as root you can see the groups and the users in the groups. Any other user including domain admins can not.

[Samba] Printing
Hi guys, Our printer server has been up for the past 2 years and we haven't had one problem. I'm running samba 2.2.7 with lprng. I wanted to make the printer installation on windoz 2000 boxes easier by putting the printer drivers on the server and using the [print$] share. I had it all working nicely and u could just click on a printer on the print sever and it would install along with the drivers. However when another user logs on to the same machine they do not see the printer. We are using profiles here, and my first thought was it could be saving it in my profile. However if I or another one of my collegues logon (Domain Admins) they can see the printer but no one else can (normal users). Any suggestions???

Hi, Reading your email, are u implying that the default user settings are updated in the SP3. If this is the case if you have a Default User directory under the netlogin share does this mean it will have to updated.

We recently had this problem as well, and found that giving the users higher priviledges on their local client machines solved the problem (which, for our users, was not a desirable solution). It turns out in our situation it had nothing to do with samba being configured incorrectly, but in the fact that the ntuser.* files in their profile directories had older (now incorrect) information in them (after the upgrade). The way I had to solve it was to log in the users (non-priviledged) with out having their profiles roaming (so that Windows created a new profile for them) and then manually copy their new ntuser.* (uh... ntuser.dat, ntuser.dat.log and ntuser.ini, I think) files from the new profile back into their old profile (and then setting them back up to access their old profile) Doing this kludge solved the problem you are talking about in our system. I am guessing (and this is just a shot in the dark) that in our case, the upgrade caused Winwoes (W2K) to think the domain had changed, and that this caused the previous profile information on the client machine to be lost (at least, when viewing ownership on the client machine, the user name was replaced with a long string of garbage). -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
RE: [Samba] still not working
Make sure you have a linux user setup, either a generic one or one for each user. if
it's win2k/xp you will need to look at the man page for encrypted passwords.

Please reply - Need HELP!! I am first time SAMBA user. System information: Unix = HP-UX 11.0 Network = Windows 2000 Things that I did: 1) Logged into our test unix box as ârootâ. Created a directory âsambaâ underneath â/home/rootâ. 2) Went to samba website and downloaded âsamba-2.2.7a.tar.gzâ onto my âC:\â (my desktop). I am aware that the latest âHow toâ book in its âInstallation section asks me to use command âwget http://us1.samba.org/samba/ftp/samba-2.2.7a.tar.gzâ from my unix prompt, but unfortunately âwgetâ does not work on my unix box. 3) FTP the âsamba-2.2.7a.tar.gzâ to test unix box in binary mode. 4) Used âgunzip samba-2.2.7a.tar.gzâ 5) Next step would be to verify Sambaâs PGP signature. But again, unfortunately, âgpgâ command does not work on my machine, so had to proceed further without verification. Should I have used a different approach for this verification? 6) Used âcd /tmpâ. Then did âtar xf /home/root/samba/samba-2.2.7a.tarâ. This did create the directory âsamba-2.2.7aâ underneath â/tmpâ and with all the other folders and files underneath âsamba-2.2.7aâ 7) Then went back to â/samba/ftp/Binary_Packages/hp/samba-2.2.7aâ website and downloaded the HP-UX depot âsamba_2.2.7a_HPUX_withwinbind.depot.gzâ onto my âC:\â and then FTPâed that over to test unix box in underneath â/tmpâ directory in binary mode. 8) Then used âswinstall âs /tmp/samba_2.2.7a_HPUX_withwinbind.depot.gz Sambaâ. 9) Then used â/sbin/init.d/samba startâ to start smbd and nmbd. 10) Then edited my â/etc/nsswitch.confâ to add âpasswd: files winbind grouyp: files winbindâ 11) I think I am also supposed to do some setup in â/etc/pam.dâ, but this file never got created. It does not exist. 12) Used â/usr/local/samba/bin/smpasswd âj mydomain âr mypdc âU administratorâ. This joined the unix server to âmydomainâ. But also gave the error message about âUnicode_map.850â and âUnicode_map.ISO8559â didnât exist underneath âcodepagesâ directory. I know that I do have âCP850.txtâ and âCPIS8559.txtâ files, but I was not able to create those binary Unicode files because I do not have the right âmake_unicodemapâ excecutable. Can someone help me with this? I have âmake_unicodemap.câ executable but that seems be taking input file in format âunicode_def.850â, which I do not have. But note that I was able to Join to mydomain. 13) When I looked at â/usr/local/samba/log.smbdâ and âlog.nmbdâ files they had the same error message of above two Unicode files not existing. But those two processes âsmbd and nmbdâ start properly and I can see them running on the box. 14) Then copied libnss_winbind.so to â/libâ and pam_winbind.so to /lib/security. 15) I copied â/tmp/samba-2.2.7a/examples/simple/smb.confâ to /usr/local/samba/lib. I edited this file to add following into [global]: Winbind separator = + Winbind cache time = 10 Template shell = /bin/bash Template homedir = /home/%D/%U Winbind uid = 1-2 Winbind gid = 1-2 Workgroup = mydomain Security = domain Password server = * Encrypt passwords = yes 16) Then I start âwinbind daemonâ by using â/usr/local/samba/bin/winbindd âs /usr/local/samba/lib/smb.confâ. 17) And bingo, I was able to achieve my objective of able to access Unix files from my âwindows explorerâ underneath âNetwork neighbourhoodâ. 18) Now my problem begins. I tried to get fancy and wanted to add some more directories that users can access from Windows explorer. So I went ahead and edited â/usr/local/samba/lib/smb.confâ for those directories. Now I needed âwinbinddâ to see these changes. But I did not how/from where to use âSIGHUPâ

I said this because for ADS support, is required the following pieces: Windows 2000 Server ^^^ Samba 3.0 Kerberos5 OpenLdap So, the conclusion is only one: I still required a Windows 2000 Server Platform. I suppose because Samba will connect to W2k Server and import from there Active directory policy. What i want is to use ONLY Windows 2000 Professional (for clients) and a Linux box for Sammba PDC and ADS. If W2k server is still required in this case the Linux and Samba become UNUSEFULL (because all things can be done using W2k server platform not only ADS policy) Can somebody tell me if exist any schema to support ADS on Samba without using a W2k Server?

RE: [Samba] Profiles
Hi, With the My Documents problem, I have pointed the My Documents folder to my home drive. If you right click on My Documents and hit properties you can change the target. Your second problem with desktop.ini and thumbs.db are files created by XP. You could put these files in the veto list under the share. look at veto in the man pages.

I'm new to the list and I hope I'm not boring anyone with old news. I did grep through the archives and I came up dry. I have two problems that I'm trying to solve. The first problem is that some of my users have My Documents folders that are measured in tonnage. How can I make Windows not save this directory? I believe that the fault is with windows because whenever I change anything to prevent it from saving, windows barks a warning. I don't want these files on my server, and my laptop users are crying because it takes so long to shut down. The second problem is thumbs.db desktop.ini. I believe these are produced by windows explorer and are usually hidden/system files or something. Well, when they're copied back to the workstation from the profile it seems that they lose their magical properties. I'd like to get these to work properly. Everyone keeps complaining about desktop icons averywhere and the art director always has to select thumbnail view on every directory. Again, I apologize if this is covered ground, but I did search though the archives, and Samba Unleashed isn't being very forthcoming.

[Samba] 2GB Limit
Hi, I've looked though the archives but i've only found stuff on smbfs. What is the deal with the 2GB limit. I have a NT box do a backup though windows backup to a samba share (samba 2.2.5 on SUSE 7.1 kernel 2.4.18). When it gets to 2GB it stops and won't go any further. Is this a problem with samba, windows or the kernel??. Cheers -- Kristyan Osborne - IT Technicain Longhill High School 01273 391672 ¢éì¹» ®Þ~º¶¬+-h¶¢YhÂ)àQÚÚÞiÛaz)춻¶*'²m§ÿåËl±©jàþf¢f§þX¬¶)ߣû¶
RE: [Samba] Profiles and local profile copy
Hi, Use poledit and set a profile limit of say 10MB. It comes in the resource kit i think.

Whenever I attach a 2000 Pro workstation to a Samba server, a directory is created under the user's home directory called profile, and the local profile syncs with this directory. Its not usually bothersome until someone leaves 2 GIG of data on their desktop and when they logoff, Windows syncs the entire 2 GIG of data to the server. How do I disable this? Attaching a 2000 Pro machine to a 2000 server doesn't yeild the same results, you have to explicitly turn on remote profiles.

RE: [Samba] samba fileserver
you will have to recompile samba with the option --with-quota so that users can see their quota on a windoz box. As for configuration to smb.conf non is needed.

RE: [Samba] Re: Will/Can Exchange Server run with a samba pdc?
One suggestion would be to create a domain called mail on a nt4 pdc and have exhcange running of that. Then have a samba domain for the rest of your machines. That is sort of what we've done here, and it works fine.

Well, Lacking any feedback, we had to assume we were on a loser here and we bought the old winnt4 pdc back online. We now have two domains, the original winnt4 domain and the new samba domain, since we had to rename one domain we renaimed the samba one. We now have the bulk of our clients hanging off the new domain and our exchange server hanging off the old domain. I will proberbly suck it and see if I can get a exchange server working on the new domain then try to migrate mailboxes, but what the hell I may just let that system rot. We had a lot of fun doing the conversion, didn't get the logon home/drive/path just right and crashed our winnt clients badly (on logon). We didn't try to migrate our passwords, just re-entered them (then changed the domain twice). So Our basic windows clients went fairly well. We lost our winnt4 desktops profiles in the domain conversion, but we only had a few of those (five). We are going to Windows XP home on the basic desktop. These clients were a non-event and have so far just worked. Haven't bought and winxp pro clients, I just can't see why (we don't need dual processor on the desktop and really don't need the domain structure either) Well, I like free software, so I think the excercise was worth it. The users don't care. And the management really don't care either, saving a few bucks is ok but then theres the time and support issues.

[Samba] File systems
Hi, I know this is a little of topic, but I want people ideas and opinions. I currently have a samba server with approx 1300 users. During the summer I am going to upgrade this server as its been up for about 5 years. At the moment it has an ext2 file system for the drives containing peoples work, etc. I was wondering if people can suggest a better file system to use than ext2 as I believe this is getting dated (but stable).
