[Samba] samba PDC BDC
OK - I'm actually functioning but I'm afraid and I want to fill in a knowledge gap - perhaps a slight gap in the How-To Book or my ability to soak in its' wisdom. LDAP up and working on two machines, master slave and changes made in master can be found by ldapsearch on slave faster than two up arrows and a return (gosh, it only took me 10 days but the light bulb has definitely lit). Two Linux systems PDC - Linux2 - also is LDAP master BDC - Linux1 - also is LDAP slave smbpasswd -w PASSWORD puts binddn password into secrets.tdb Machine is added to domain, no problem right, because PDC fields this whereas BDC handles most of logon chores. What if PDC/LDAP is offline? Doesn't Machine Add then get added to slave LDAP? How about if user changes his password? Do I really want the secrets.tdb to have rootdn PASSWORD? Shouldn't this be a non-rootdn in the BDC's smb.conf with only sufficient access to see sambaNTPassword sambaLMPassword with read only and no write privileges to anything? I.E.

[Samba] Windows2000 policies in a Samba PDC
I'm installing a Samba 3.0 PDC with LDAP backend in a classroom in a Spanish school. Client workstations are Windows2000 and, in the future, there will be Linux clients. I'm following the Samba Project Documentation book (also known as Samba Howto Collection). The document is wonderfull, but there is a part that I don't fully understand, maybe because, as you can read, I'm not a native English speaker. :-( I work with Spanish versions of Windows, so some terms can be inexact (is MY translation from Spanish Windows's terms to English, not Microsoft's one). I want to use complete policies, centralized in the server and applied depending of the user and the groups the user belongs to. I want to use those features that W2000 policies have and WinNT lacks, like making available particular applications to particular users and/or groups. After reading the document, I'm not sure of the way I can manage those advances policies without having a W2K Server: * It's said in the document (23.2.3) that W2k policies are not stored in the NETLOGON share (like it's done with NT policies) but rather part of a Windows 200x policy file is stored in the Active Directory itself and the other part is stored in a shared (and replicated) volume called the SYSVOL folder. * It's also said (23.3) that policy files contains the registry settings for all users, groups, and computers, so only a policy file is necessary for managing a whole domain. * The document also says (23.2.3.1) that W2k policies must be created with a Microsoft Management Console (MMC) snap-in. Start - Programs -Admntive Tools- Active Directory Users and Computers Right-click on the OU - Properties - Group Policy Well, when I use this tool, I need to create some GPOs for totally defining a policy. For each GPO I create, a complex directory is created in: c:\WINNT\SYSVOL\sysvol\domainname\profiles This created folder includes several subfolders and files The document says that NTConfig.POL must be copied in NETLOGON, but using the MMC I don't get a .POL file, but a set of complex folders! Furthermore, a part of the policy information is supposed to be located in the AD, not in that set of folders. I did the tests of the MMC with a W2k server that doesn't belong to the classroom I'm configuring. In fact, I can't use that W2k server usually. Well, I've already explained my situation, here are the questions: * How can I create complex W2k policies with the W2k MMC and use them in my Samba PDC? Of course, I would like to change the policies (or, better, create them from the beginning) without using a W2k server. It's possible? * Maybe the client machine converts the profile in a single .POL file (accessible in My Computer - Properties - User's Profiles) in the login process. If it occurs this way, is *everything* stored in this .POL file? Including those settings that are not applied (for example, settings for a different group)? If this assumption is right, it would mean that the only way to get a feature-rich policy (a la W2k, that are really more powerfull than WinNT policies) is creating the policy in a W2k server and login afterwards from a W2k worksation to obtain a single .POL file. I expect there is a way of getting a W2k policy without installing and configuring a W2k server and replacing it with Samba afterwards, so Where are my assumptions wrong? What is the best way for getting feature-rich W2k policies in a Samba PDC without installing a W2k server? Should I resign myself to using WinNT profiles (that are poorer but easier to create)?

Re: [Samba] Clustering and winbindd
On Mon, 29 Dec 2003, Peter Giorgilli wrote: Hi all! I'm working on a project that, funnily enough, involves clustering and winbindd. Specifically, we have a 2-node cluster configured in an active-active configuration whereby both servers are running Samba, each exporting different filesystems that are backed on a shared storage subsystem such that at any given time, one node can takeover from the other. The problem: if I run winbindd on both systems independently, the Windows-domain user accts are mapped to different UNIX uids/gids, which in turn creates a problem when a particular share is relocated from one node to the other because of the different file permissions. (Ideally, both nodes would see the same winbindd_idmap.tdb.) Can I effectively configure winbindd in a master/backup configuration such that only one of the nodes is able to update the database, whilst the other is only able to read the database? I thought to set the winbind cache time to a value such as 1 day that would effectively relegate one of the nodes to backup status. At the same time, the backup server would periodically rsync the winbindd_idmap.tdb database to pickup any changes. Can anyone see any problems with this approach and/or suggest a better way of going about it? I should also mention that I'm running on Red Hat Linux Advanced Server release 2.1AS, using the latest rpm released by Red Hat which as best I can understand is based on Samba release 2.2.7, plus select patches back-ported from 2.2.8. You should update to samba-3.0.0 or later. USA LDAP backend, and use: idmap backend = ldap://your-ldap-server This way both servers will have a common mapping of SIDs to UID/GIDs.

[Samba] multi subnetted network (was: CIDR notation in config file)
I have a slightly different problem, but it is veeery similar: I have a number of machines with variu\ous OS, some uses real M$ client/server, other use samba (in server mode). These are set in a MS domain . most machine have a 192.168.a.* address , other a public b.c.d.* address , the PDC and BDC have two NIC on both networks. It works fine. However i have some [win 2k] clients that are either on b.c.e.* and 192.169.f.* or worse are behind a natting firewall that convert [symmetrically dnat/snat] the private addresses thay have in a remote rentwork into unique b.c.d.* addresses . While if i login locally and try to access remote servers i have almost no problem (except a very, very, interesting effect, see below) if i stay outside one of the homenetwork i have the following problems: (note: the routers are linux server with statical routes and no firewalling active, all addresses, either private or public are static) 1. I cannot add new windows hosts to the domain, since it say that no domain server is found, althought if i plug in one of the home networks i can add 2. Once i have added and move to the remote network i cannot use the authenthication of user at login, since it say thet PDC is not reacheable. However i can, if i login as a local user, access to the shares in that host, that ask me domain/username/password [so i can corfirm that routing is really working] 3. From machine behind DNAT/SNAT i cannot even change permissions since i cannot get the list of user/group from domain ! . 4. the final problem, that I mentioned before: From machines behind NAT i can access the server but ... If the client is XP pro i can access only server with win2k or samba3.0 . No luck with hosts with NT4 sp6 But if i plug it in the home networks, directly, i can access the NT4 servers again..

[Samba] smbd and microsoft-ds
Hello How to enable or run smbd service beside the nmbd service? I have two samba server 3.0.0 in a domain, both of them are domain logons, and domain master. They have almost same configuration about being the server. But only one of them running both nmbd and smbd (with netbios-ssn at 159 and microsoft-ds at port 445), and the other server only nmbd. I have check both /etc/service and /etc/inet.conf, they're same. The cause of this effect is the same user (from same LDAP server) only can change their password from server which running with microsoft-ds at 445. Is there any correlation between them?

RE: [Samba] multi subnetted network (was: CIDR notation in config file)
-Original Message- I have a slightly different problem, but it is veeery similar: I have a number of machines with variu\ous OS, some uses real M$ client/server, other use samba (in server mode). These are set in a MS domain . most machine have a 192.168.a.* address , other a public b.c.d.* address , the PDC and BDC have two NIC on both networks. It works fine. However i have some [win 2k] clients that are either on b.c.e.* and 192.169.f.* or worse are behind a natting firewall that convert [symmetrically dnat/snat] the private addresses thay have in a remote rentwork into unique b.c.d.* addresses . While if i login locally and try to access remote servers i have almost no problem (except a very, very, interesting effect, see below) if i stay outside one of the homenetwork i have the following problems: (note: the routers are linux server with statical routes and no firewalling active, all addresses, either private or public are static) 1. I cannot add new windows hosts to the domain, since it say that no domain server is found, althought if i plug in one of the home networks i can add 2. Once i have added and move to the remote network i cannot use the authenthication of user at login, since it say thet PDC is not reacheable. However i can, if i login as a local user, access to the shares in that host, that ask me domain/username/password [so i can corfirm that routing is really working] 3. From machine behind DNAT/SNAT i cannot even change permissions since i cannot get the list of user/group from domain ! . 4. the final problem, that I mentioned before: From machines behind NAT i can access the server but ... If the client is XP pro i can access only server with win2k or samba3.0 . No luck with hosts with NT4 sp6 But if i plug it in the home networks, directly, i can access the NT4 servers again.. Win2k works ok, instead ! Any idea/ihint/explaination/ ? This seems like a Windows browsing problem, which would exist for machines not on the same subnet. Do you have wins support = yes in your smb.conf and the machines on all subnets set to use your Samba server as the WINS server? This should get you around most of your browsing-related issues.

You can send a message with a command such as 'echo Testing |
smbclient -M machine'. I
don't know if there is a way to send a message to all clients. You could
try to do it
yourself. If you have any bash/sed/awk or perl abilities, you could
write a script that
parses the output of 'smbstatus' to determine which clients are
currently logged on to the
domain. It could then go through a loop and send the message to every
client. In perl:
#!/usr/bin/perl
open PIPE, smbstatus |;
foreach $line (PIPE) {
if($line =~ /\d+\s+(\S+)\s+\S+\s+(\S+)\s+\((.+)\)/) {
system echo 'Attention user $1! PDC is down. Please save all work
to local disk,
logout, and log back in on the BDC.' | smbclient -M $2 -I $3;
}
}
I ran a brief test on this and it appears to work correctly with 3.0.1.

I'm aware of the current situation with W2k policies, and I was wondering if anyone has undertaken work to implement all or part of the W2k GPO outside of Active Directory. Since essentially GPOs are simply an ACL which implements registry changes dependent on the policy defined in the GPO, I would think this is definitely possible. Maybe I'm over simplifying what GPOs do or possibly I only used GPO features which were NT4 compatible (which would mean that I could get by with .POL files). I'm currently trying to solve three problems in my Samba implementation. Two of these are irrelevant to this discussion, but I want to include them as I'm considering solving them with the same software: * Microsoft implemented roaming profiles suck and are incredibly ineffecient over slow links. I'm considering re-implementing them using a client-side process and librsync. * Patching systems is a pain, as well as installating software for users. This is generally part of SUS or could be part of GPO (maybe SUS creates GPOs to install the updates, I dunno). The problem I've always found is getting around my users not having admin priviledges on their machines. I've found several free su-like implementations for Windows, but all still require a password on the command line or are just too insecure for me if they don't. I'm considering implementing a service which would patch software on the Windows machine based on output from a server process running on my Samba servers (possibly only the PDC). * As mentioned before, I'd like an open-source implementation of W2k GPOs. This wouldn't run using Microsoft's GPO process, instead it would be implemented by a client-side process which would make the necessary changes. Has anyone currently started work fixing any of these? I'm ready to trash all the custom work I've done to solve these problems and start fresh with something that'll work cleanly and smoothly. I've got some ideas for architecture including development language, communications protocols, etc, but nothing's firm, and I'd be glad to contribute to someone who's already started a project which solves one or more of the above problems.

Re: [Samba] Open Source W2k Policy Implementation (was Re: Windows2000 policies in a Samba PDC)
Clint, In my new book Samba-3 by Example, which will be released to open source when the book is in print, I have given step-by-step prescriptive guidance on how to implement total control over client Windows workstations. I have restricted coverage to NT4 style profiles, even though I am fully aware that SYSVOL type Win2kx profiles do partly work. That book will be available in April, and will be part of the samba-docs project (that is where the Samba-HOWTO-Collection also has its home). The reasons for which I have not provided guidance specific to Win2K GPO implementation are: 1. Part of the protocol is dependant on Active Directory queries that Samba-3 can not support. 2. NT4 Policies allow almost everything that must be achieved without a whole lot more complicated steps that are very easy to get wrong. But if you wish to help document what you have done I am most willing to put it in the appendix and to point readers at it from appropriate locations in the text. Cheers, John T.

I'm considering re-implementing them using a client-side process and librsync. * Patching systems is a pain, as well as installating software for users. This is generally part of SUS or could be part of GPO (maybe SUS creates GPOs to install the updates, I dunno). The problem I've always found is getting around my users not having admin priviledges on their machines. I've found several free su-like implementations for Windows, but all still require a password on the command line or are just too insecure for me if they don't. I'm considering implementing a service which would patch software on the Windows machine based on output from a server process running on my Samba servers (possibly only the PDC). * As mentioned before, I'd like an open-source implementation of W2k GPOs. This wouldn't run using Microsoft's GPO process, instead it would be implemented by a client-side process which would make the necessary changes. Has anyone currently started work fixing any of these? I'm ready to trash all the custom work I've done to solve these problems and start fresh with something that'll work cleanly and smoothly. I've got some ideas for architecture including development language, communications protocols, etc, but nothing's firm, and I'd be glad to contribute to someone who's already started a project which solves one or more of the above problems. If not, if anyone else is interested in the above problems and wants to start work on a new project which would solve those, I'd be happy to discuss with you offline.

RE: [Samba] Open Source W2k Policy Implementation (was Re: Windows2000 policies in a Samba PDC)
John, What I've done so far is mostly a hack. I've implemented some custom VBS scripts at login to install software (that only works part of the time because my method for granting the users admin priviledges is a UI based VBS hack which types the password in for them from an encrypted VBS script) and I've yet to implement any Windows policies as I've not been motivated enough to dig up poledit.exe or figure out how to implement them with Samba (although admittedly I'm sure your book would go great strides to helping me with that). Right now we're implementing policies the old fashioned way, Screw up the computer you're fired. :) For the same reason LDAP and it's associated open source management tools (I'm a big fan of LAM which is in beta now at http://sf.net/project/lam) are great for allowing us to get away from NT4 based management tools, I've become increasingly aware there's no way to implement NT4 based policies w/o having to have NT based management tools (of which I'm not sure Microsoft's license allows one to use them w/o NT4 installed). I've begun thinking an expandable architecture based on an open-source NT service installed on the clients could help us solve many of the problems we're still relying on NT tools for. This could possibly even allow us to implement new ideas since we would have a priveledged executable running on the workstations. However, I'm merely thinking at this point, and I don't want to re-invent the wheel either (well, anyone but Microsoft's wheel, as their tools are becoming dated and may not be supported in future Windows desktop releases). If someone has a way to solve the problems I've listed below in an easily manageable way w/o using Microsoft tools, I'd be glad to help them as I've said previously. So in summary, I'm interested if someone has started work like this, and in response to your last post, I don't have anything worth putting in your book at this point, I'm merely looking for other people who might have started work on something like this.

RE: [Samba] Open Source W2k Policy Implementation (was Re: Windows2000 policies in a Samba PDC)
Clint, Thanks for responding. As I think through the issues and consider what is safe to document it is important that I do not overlook material that ought to be documented. On the other hand, experience has taught me that anything that goes into print becomes law. For that reason I am reluctant to point readers at marginal, speculative, or shifting-sand technologies and methods. Great intentions are seldom met. Despite my objectives, I have included more marginal material than I should, but it is hard to draw the line in a safe place. :) I am aware of LAM and am documenting it in the Appendix. I have also been in touch with the author (nice guy) and am confident that there will be a few refinements in the near term that will benefit users of LAM. In many areas Open Source software has a technology edge, but what it offers in technology edge it more than loses through lack of integration. Microsoft have an undeniable edge in terms of the total solution they deliver. It is therefore not suprising that we always seem to be playing catch-up. I too, am earnestly seeking input from people who have developed smart ways to implement open source solutions. The best I can contribute is through documentation. I do not aim to compete with Microsoft, rather to help Open Source oriented users to get the best mileage they can get. I also have to be brutally honest and point out where the strong points are on both sides of the debate. Samba is great technology for integrating UNIX and Windows networks. It's file and print services are legendary. Samba can replace MS Windows solutions. OpenLDAP can provide a great directory for use by Samba. But these solutions are simply not the same as ADS and Win2Kx. My simple goal in writing the Samba-3 by Example book was to document HOW example network problems could be solved using Samba-3. I thought it would be easy to do in under 200 pages. So far I am 70% done, and have already written 280 pages. There is so much more material that I could cover that it scares me. Cheers, John T.

[Samba] Slow browsing through Windows Explorer
Hello, I'm having a very strange problem with Samba version 2.2.7a. I have four boxes, Two Linux Mandrake Boxes (Morpheus and Unreal both v. 9.2), One RedHat (Link v. 8.0) and an XP Workstation (Kek XP Pro NO SP1). When I bring up My computer (Explorer) and attempt to browse through the H: drive (SMB Share mapped to Users Home dir on Morpheus), Y: drive (SMB Share maped to /backup on Unreal) It takes a veary, very long time to list the files on any of the mapped samba drives. It basically hangs the explorer.exe process. I can bring up the task manager, I can still toggle (Control + Tab) between other apps that are open, but I cannot access my start menu or do anything with the current explorer window that's reading the files form the network. However with the task manager open I can launch a new task cmd.exe and then fro the command prompt I can C:H: change to the H: drive, do a dir and list all the files, I can even dig down into sub dirs and list files over the network, the whole time the explorer process appears to be hung trying to list the files, just like I did in the command prompt window. Then after about 4 or 5 mintues, everything comes back to normal, it shows all the files in the explorer window, and then any clicking I did like on the start menu or trying to move winodws while it was hung all happens very quickly and then it's fine. Until I try to access the drive again in about 2 or 3 hours. Sorry so long. Thanks in advance for any help. -- Curtis Strite Director of Internet Services 7321 S.

When I bring up My computer (Explorer) and attempt to browse through the H: drive (SMB Share mapped to Users Home dir on Morpheus), Y: drive (SMB Share maped to /backup on Unreal) It takes a veary, very long time to list the files on any of the mapped samba drives. It basically hangs the explorer.exe process. I can bring up the task manager, I can still toggle (Control + Tab) between other apps that are open, but I cannot access my start menu or do anything with the current explorer window that's reading the files form the network. However with the task manager open I can launch a new task cmd.exe and then fro the command prompt I can C:H: change to the H: drive, do a dir and list all the files, I can even dig down into sub dirs and list files over the network, the whole time the explorer process appears to be hung trying to list the files, just like I did in the command prompt window. Then after about 4 or 5 mintues, everything comes back to normal, it shows all the files in the explorer window, and then any clicking I did like on the start menu or trying to move winodws while it was hung all happens very quickly and then it's fine. Until I try to access the drive again in about 2 or 3 hours. Sorry so long. Thanks in advance for any help. -- Curtis Strite Director of Internet Services 7321 S.

[Samba] Samba 2.2.8a open Files malfunction ?
Hi Group, having several Problems with Samba Client Win2000 SP2 Server SUSE 9.0 SAMBA 2.2.8a connection from Client to Server is fine (RW Access possible), but a little Textfile opened in Windows Notepad (and changed) is not reported as 'Open File' by smbstatus -d after opening another File (e.g. with Microsoft WORD) --- smbstatus -d reports both files 'OPEN' --- after a while in most! cases the littel TXT-File disappears from 'OPEN Files List' what's going wrong here? known Bugs ?? P.S. shutting down the Server by leaving the Files open on Win2K Client I get no warning that Files are in use How do I change this ?

RE: [Samba] Slow browsing through Windows Explorer
-Original Message- Clint, We may have different problems. You were doing this w/o the folders bar in Windows Explorer right? Not sure what you mean here. I'm just in explore mode of Windows Explorer. In windows explorer, under View-Explorer Bar-Folders, is this checked? If so, uncheck it and go to the server via \\servername\share again and see if takes a long time still. This will tell you if it's a browsing related issue, as with the folders explorer bar open, it's attempting to build a browse list for the workgroup. Also, these machines are in a workgroup setting? Is your machine on a domain or in the same workgroup? I'm on a domain, I have another box RedHat (LINK) that is my PDC. Which is working when the XP Client logs in, it has a netlogon share which maps the H: and the Y: drives to Morpheus and Unreal respectivly. Have you done an nmblookup -M -- - or findsmb to determine which machine is your master browser? No, I think this is a good place to start. I did restart Samba on Morpheus and bumped up the log level to 2 and now I'm getting this. [2003/12/29 15:27:44, 2] nmbd/nmbd_nameregister.c:register_name_timeout_response(199) register_name_timeout_response: WINS server at address 10.11.86.17 is not responding. 10.11.86.17 is LINK which is my PDC that I've also told to be a wins server in the smb.conf file. Make sure on the machine you think is your WINS Server you set wins support = yes instead of wins server = yes, as the wins server is the parameter for telling a machine which IP to query for WINS. I have a feeling this is setup wrong which is why you're having a problem browsing and thus it's slow in Windows. Clint This sounds like a browsing related issue, and you have to have a reachable master browser for the workgroup/domain of the machine you're attempting to connect to so that Windows can pull the browse list, otherwise it'll take forever before timing out. Maybe someone else here has more experience at this than I do, but that's what it seems like to me.

Re: [Samba] smb.conf man page FUBAR
Romeyn, Thanks for reporting this. We are well aware of the problem and we are taking corrective action. Apologies for ruining your day with this stuff up. For the record, we implemented a system that automatically builds the Samba documentation and then uploads it to the Web sites. Those of us who maintain the documentation now find ourselves in between a rock and a hard place. It takes several days to implement structural change necessary so that we can support multiple languages. In the intervening period, we broke the build process. The automatic build and upload process did not know that the build broke, so it uploaded broken (incomplete) documentation. Just so you are aware that the news is not all bad, The Samba HOWTO is presently being translated from English into: German French Spanish Japanese as well as several other languages. All translation work is being done by volunteer groups. This is really an exciting time for Samba and particularly for our users. PS: All bug reports should go to: https://bugzilla.samba.org This one is in hand, but if you wish to make it official and to have it on record, feel free to post one. Cheers, John T.

[Samba] nbp hell
Greetings, I spent the better part of a day tracking down a rather annoying problem. I would like someone more knowledgeable than myself to confirm this diagnosis. I have a RH 8.0 Linux box with three NICS. I had been developing it testing with an XP box. Everything seemed groovy. Today I went to put it into production and Win98 clients were having all sorts of problems. eth2 is the system's default interface. eth1 is used for netatalk, and eth2 for samba. I have used the interfaces and nind interfaces only options in smb.conf. After more hairpulling, I did a packet capture on a hub with the Win98 client. It seems that the client does an nbp query. My server responds, but the response comes from eth2, not eth0! Despite the packet's payload having the correct information (that the server the client seeks is at the IP address bound to eth0), Win98 decides that the server is at the IP address associated with the packet informing it of such. I am told that this is a violation of the smb protocol. Can anyone suggest a fix? Should I just relegate samba to the server's default interface and not worry about this anymore?

[Samba] Request to Answer Survey
Folks, Open Magazine are running a survey. The outcome will determine how much coverage they give Samba in future. I know a lot of you use Samba Domain Controllers. Please visit the site and answer the survey. All Yes answers would be wonderful - but do answer truthfully please. I'd like to see a few hundred responses as soon as possible. Right now there are 47. That is not a representative sample, but is already being touted as statistics say that 56% of respondents Do NOT use Samba as a Domain Controller. Please help to get the record straight.
