I have a samba server acting as a domain controller. Is there a way that 
I can Have a script that delete the shortcuts on the desktop,quicklaunch 
and startmenu for Internet Exploder. At the same time installing Mozilla 
Fire Fox. Maybe like a little vbscript or something that gets ran from 
the server when they login.

RES: [Samba] ntlm_auth help

2004-07-07 Thread Estevam Henrique Carvalho

Isn't possible to test the ntlm_auth with the ntlmssp protocol in a command
line mode, you must use a browser able to handle ntlm because only this sort
of browser send the appropriate ntlm challenges, try IE.

[Samba] Samba Multiple Interfaces

2004-07-07 Thread Chris Visser

Hi,

I have a problem.  I have Samba configured on a Linux system with
multiple interfaces.
111.112.113.4/24 and 10.10.10.254/24, on the 111.112.113.0/24 network
everyone can access the shares with no problems, on the 10.10.10.0/24
network however I can only open one smb connection to the server at a
time.  When I try to make a second connection from a different machine
it drops both connections,  the 111.112.113.0/24 network however is
unaffected.
The 111.112.113.0/24 network runs only Win 2K machines, while the
10.10.10.0/24 network includes a couple of NT servers.

Below is a dump by testparm of my config.  I've RTFMed and think I'm
just missing something.  Any ideas?

BTW the 111.112.113.0/24 network is only used internally, the person who
originally configured the network didn't know about Public and Private
ranges.

Thanks
Chris

Actually, it is now possible.  

ntlm_auth --helper-protocol=ntlmssp-client-1  --username=foo
--domain=bar --password=secret

If you type 'YR', it will reply, and from then you can copy  paste the
output from that program to 

ntlm_auth --helper-protocol=squid-2.5-ntlmssp

(Likewise, copy the replies back).  

This provides a very nice way to test the system, without needing squid
and MSIE.

If they are a roaming profiles, then much of these are files in the

It's probably not a complete solution, but it's a start.

[Samba] Domains: Pros and Cons?

2004-07-07 Thread Gary Algier

I have Samba running without a PDC and I have some questions
about the advantages for implementing one with Samba vs. the
problems and disadvantages.  Perhaps some kind souls can
help me determine whether I should do this or not.
We have three offices connected by a Checkpoint VPN, plus
people on the road using their SecureClient tool.  We
want everyone to be able to get to all the Samba servers
from wherever they are.
Here's a sample topology:
MtLaurel (NJ,US)
172.25.0.0/16
corp -- a samba server running on our large Sun file server
print -- a samba server running on a linux box with CUPS for
printing
Dallas (TX,US)
172.27.0.0/16
derby -- a samba server on Sun for local storage and printing
Sophia (-Antipolis,FR)
172.26.0.0/16
tank -- a samba server on Sun for local storage and printing
Right now each location is running in its own workgroup, no PDCs.
If we go with a PDC I see the following advantages and disadvantages:
1) Single sign-on, consistent login -- advantage
   It would all be backed by our current LDAP SAM.
2) Anyone can log into any PC -- disadvantage
   People have become used to not worrying about security on
   their own PCs as nobody else could login.  Once domained
   anyone can login.
3) Complexity
   I am concerned about keeping this whole house of cards working with
   a PDC in MtLaurel and slave PDCs in the other locations.   Our
   people travel a lot and they need to use resources while in non-home
   offices.  How do they join the MtLaurel PDC and then move to the Sophia
   one?  How do they use one inside the corporate network from outside?
4) Password change -- this is the thing driving (forcing) the issue.
   With a PDC, the user logs in at the windows client with the same password
   as is used for all the other network resources.  It can be setup to
   expire passwords and the user can change their password from the login
   dialog (or with ctl-alt-del...) and it will take effect for everything.
   Is there any way to get just this capability without all the issues
   associated with a PDC?

RE: [Samba] Samba 2.2.8.a for Solaris

2004-07-07 Thread Cardoza, Dean

Majid:

On Solaris boxes the Samba package typically installs in /usr/local/samba.
The configuration file (smb.conf) is located in /usr/local/samba/lib.

Once you modify the configuration don't forget to restart the samba
processes.  My init script has a restart option, so,
/etc/init.d/samba.server restart does this job for me.

Good Luck!

There is an option in Samba 3 that is designed to work like the host

We're currently planning on solving this issue with only one domain 
across our sites.  The plan is to set up DC boxes in each site, all 
connected to the same ldap data store, also replicated at each site 
naturally.  When a laptop is off the network, you still are allowed to 
log in with cached (I believe that's the right term) credentials as long 
as the user has logged in on that machine before.  However, you don't 
have access to the networked resources until such time as you connect 
with your vpn naturally.

[Samba] The Solution - Re: Q about net groupmap examples on samba.org

Finally, the solution and yet more questions.
First, John was kind enough to respond to my Q's, so I will post his answers as I
begin:

1) Where does the net groupmap command store these mappings? The Domain
Admins is working for example, but I sure don't see where the settings were
stored on disk.
In the tdb file called group_mapping.tdb. On SuSE Linux this will be
in /var/lib/samba, on Red Hat Linux it can be in /var/cache/samba on some
systems. The default Samba-Team location is in /usr/local/samba/var/locks.
2) Running net user pianoman /domain on the Win2K client
side shows the Domain Group membership, but not the local group. Since
DOMAINNAME\Domain Admins is made a member of the localgroup administrators
I have the admin permissions, but I did not get it via the ntadmins mapping
I did above. Did I miss something in this example that was the key to
making it work?
How do you expect this to function?
How do you believe this works with MS Windows NT4?

First, I guess I should have mentioned I was running Debian unstable with a 2.6.(5?)
kernel and Samba 3.0.4. RaiserFS for everything other than /boot which is ext2.
So, yea, I can look for a tbd file now - no more black hole of where that data is
going.
On the second Q, I'll turn it around and ask yet another question - what purpose do those mappings to local groups serve in the example? As I will outline soon, they were what was breaking mappings in
my environment.

I've lived a sheltered life, first domains were LAN Server, then WarpServer / WarpServer for eBusines. OS/2 clients, then NT4 and now Win2K. IBM had a great client that supported dropping some mapping
rules in the registry (for Windows clients of course) and would map domain group membership to localgroup security upon login. It would even undo additional localgroups you should not be a member of.

Then life with NetWare for 6 years. The Windows support there was to have local
accounts - NetWare does not try to be a PDC / M$ style.
So, this is the very first time I have ever tried to use the M$ client for File/Print domain style, scripting, yadda yadda... So, as a req to all involved in the Samba project, please try to not
assume extensive NT4 / PDC expirence. You can have people who are very talented and expirenced dabbling with Samba that avoided NT4 / PDC entirely and are cutting our teath on that world via Samba.

Anyway, so the solution to making this work, and yet more questions thrown in as a go
along, and sample config files at the end:
First, add some group names to /etc/group
domadmin:x:2000:pianoman
domusers:x:2001:
domguest:x:2002:
ntadmins:x:2010:pianoman
ntpwrusr:x:2011:
ntusers:x:2012:
ntguests:x:2013:
dom* will be used to assign domain permissions, nt* will be used to assign local
windows permissions. User names coma separated in the last field I've been told by my
Linux engineer.
Next, use the net command to 1) map domain groups to these Linux dom* groups and 2)
create / map domain groups for the Linux nt* groups.
#!/bin/bash
#
# initGrps.sh
#
# Map Windows Domain Groups to UNIX groups
net groupmap modify ntgroup=Domain Admins unixgroup=domadmin
net groupmap modify ntgroup=Domain Users unixgroup=domusers
net groupmap modify ntgroup=Domain Guests unixgroup=domguest
# Map Windows NT machine local groups to local UNIX groups
#net groupmap modify ntgroup=Administrators unixgroup=ntadmins
#net groupmap modify ntgroup=Power Usersunixgroup=ntpwrusr
#net groupmap modify ntgroup=Users unixgroup=ntusers
#net groupmap modify ntgroup=Guests unixgroup=ntguests
# Create some Domain Groups to administer local security
net groupmap add ntgroup=ntadmins unixgroup=ntadmins type=d
net groupmap add ntgroup=ntpwrusr unixgroup=ntpwrusr type=d
net groupmap add ntgroup=ntusers unixgroup=ntusers type=d
net groupmap add ntgroup=ntguests unixgroup=ntguests type=d
Note I have left in but commented out ones from John's example, more about those
coming up...
This also assumes a smbpasswd back end, and that I have added the pianoman account to that. That process is documented enough other places so I will not here. I guess it also assumes smbd/nmbd are up
in PDC mode, but I am not going to post my smb.conf until the end as I said, so that is assumed to at this point.

Joining the domain. I am using the netdom command which matches Win2K SP4 as that is the SP I am running on the client side. I disable browser and server services (set to manual via registry hack -
manual is critical) but netdom needs the server task running, so net start server to make it happy. Also, a domain admin ID is needed for netdom to do its job (same via the GUI but the server service
is not needed via GUI)

NETDOM.EXE JOIN 'ComputerName' /Domain:'JOINWORKGROUP' /UserD:PianoMan
/PasswordD:thepassword
Where ComputerName and JoinWorkGroup have been variablized in my Rexx program.
bing bing, RC=0 and you are in the domain... oops, not quite so fast there, first time
won't be a rc=0

[Samba] Bug 975

2004-07-07 Thread Ryan Novosielski

This is a REALLY simple bug to fix, but I'm not sure of the best way to go 
about it or I would have written a patch already. The basic problem is 
that throughout the code, $(CC) is run with one of the arguments being 
$(DYNEXP). This is fine. However, in two places (one at 965 of Makefile.in 
where libsmbclient gets linked, and one at 1201 where pam_smbpass gets 
linked), $(DYNEXP) is used as an argument to $(SHLD) which explodes on 
HP-UX, because the value of $(DYNEXP) is -Wl,-E (and -Wl means pass to 
linker, which doesn't work if you are giving this as an argument directly 
to the linker).

Like I said, can't think of the best way to fix this. One way seems like 
an awful lot of work (making $(DYNEXP) -E and placing -Wl before it 
anytime it is needed) but seems the most correct. However I have no idea 
what that would do to the rest of the operating systems. Another way would 
be to have a different $(DYNEXP) just for the linker. Another would be to 
remove it altogether as things seem to build either way.

I really don't know, but I do know it's a very irritating bug and very 
easy to fix.

Thanks!

Is your question why are people using ldap?  I'll go under the 
assumption that it is.  If you have 2+ servers that need to stay in 
sync, it helps (a lot) to have a network directory structure.  Having 
used a couple alternatives, LDAP is more full featured than what I have 
used, easier to understand, and is pretty much 'standard' fare on 
current linux distros to at least be available without having to build 
the whole thing yourself.  Combine that with many sources of 
documentation and several methods for editing easily (gq, phpLdapAdmin, 
perl::LDAP, ad nauseum) and it's the choice du jour.

I total agree with improving the GUI but still nothing
beats CLI.
 

I'll not jump into that flamewar-bait, at least not without my asbestos 
underpants, and they're at home :-D

I would suggest a complete solution that you can also use to add drives, set

A way so you can do anything you wish in the future. Kixtart would be the 
best thing to use in my opinion.

We use it in a environment for +600 people, working with Win98, 2K and XP.

 I'm finding that most linux PDC users use LDAP for authentication.

I don't know if that is true, users of the tdb-sam probably ask a lot less 
questions.

 question why LDAP? 

1) It also solves alot of other problems
2) make integration of disparate application easier
3) Redundancy / Replication
4) Flexbility (partitioning, proxies, rewritting, etc...)
5) Scalability
etc...

[Samba] Help with long PC names and AIX

2004-07-07 Thread lars

OK I am new to Samba.

I need a solution for a problem of long PC names and short AIX names.

I cannot get a windows 98 PC connected to an AIX Samba server, I think 
because the PC name is too long.  AIX allows only a maximum of 8 
characters in a user name.  My PC name is ghostraider and I cannot 
create a user named ghostraider in the AIX system.  So when I try to 
connect, I get a Samba error telling me user ghostraider not found.

How do I work around this issue?

Thanks !!!

This is a 'feature' of AIX from what I can gather from a quick search of 
the web, and there doesn't seem to be any workaround for it.  You may 
have better luck asking an AIX group about that particular issue.  It 
actually appears that UNIX in general used to have an 8 char user limit.

The quick solution is to shorten your pc names of course ;)

[Samba] Net rpc user add and the -F flag.

2004-07-07 Thread Nicolas Costes

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1


Hello, all !

I'm trying to add users to my NT domain from my samba servers (This to 
create all my accounts with only a single script, I do not want to create 
them on the PDC, then create their folders on the samba file server with 
another...)

I managed to create account with net rpc user add, then put them in the 
right domain group with net groupmember, but what about the other 
parameters (User Z drive, profile path, etc...) ?

And I tried to give the users a password with the net rpc user add user 
password, but it doaesn't work !

I think the -F flag would help, but it's documented nowhere !
Here is the only mail I found related to my problem (Thanks to Google), but 
it never had any answer...

Can you help ?

 Joe Mondloch
  Tue Sep 9 20:41:22 GMT 2003 
  
 I'm not sure if this functionality fully exists yet or not... 
 
 I would like to be able to create user accounts on a Windows 2000
 machine from my Linux host via Samba. I also need to be able to assign
 these user accounts to particular groups. 
 
 
 I've tried:
 net rpc user ADD foo -S W2K_SERVER -U Administrator
 
 This seems to create the user, but the account is disabled and is not a
 member of any groups. The 'net rpc user' command takes a number of other
 options according to the help, such as '-F user flags'. Unfortunately, I
 have not been able to find any documentation about what those flags are.
 
 Thanks for any help,
 Joe

[Samba] Samba printers print$

2004-07-07 Thread samba


I have installed samba on a linux OS suse 8.1.  I have a printer installed
locally on the machine and it prints ok from linux.  I can see the printer
in SWAT.

The share print$

path = /srv/printers
guest ok = yes
browsable = yes
read only = yes
write list = @ntadmin,mm

On the linux machine, I have the following path:/srv/printers

The following folders are located at this path

W32MIPS/
W32PPC/
W32X86/
WIN40/

From the samba manual I am using SAMBA Essentials it explains to upload
the drivers by doing the following:

-In the printers folder on the samba server, select server properties
-Now Click the drivers tab and click the add button.

There is no drivers tab or any add button.

Can anyone point me in the right direction for using the samba server as a
print server!

[Samba] Point and Print

2004-07-07 Thread chris

I recently posted regarding problems configuring Samba. These have all
been fixed but I am now struggling with the point and print facility. I
have attempted to upload the drivers from Windows XP workstations but
this seems to do nothing. So plan B was to manually copy the files to
the appropriate print$ share folder, so far so good. The problem I now
have is that the rpcclient utility simply doesn't work. 
 
Without a debug level set I either get a usage prompt or a DOS code of
0x003
 
If I set debug to level 3 it produces the following error:

The printer concerned is an HP 2300 PCL6 which has a whole string of
file dependencies (48 files in total). The result being that I've had a
lot of trouble with quoting errors (Unix skill still abit rusty) but I
seem to have got to the bottom of that problem.
 
N.B. System is Suse 9.1 running Samba 3.0.4 - (update downloaded this
morning to see if it would solve the problem). Printing is via Cups -
not sure of the version.
 
I would greatly appreciate any help with this problem as it is driving
me mad!!!

This stinks of the 'MS update breaks password changing' issue that was 
fixed somewhere in the versions you are testing, that is it was broken 
in 3.0.2 and fixed in either .3 or .4. 

Since you know a newer version works, why not just go with it?  Given 
the bug fixes and such there is really no good reason to hang on to .2.  
I believe there are instructions for building a rpm from the source 
distribution if you are trying to keep your rpm based system sane 
(always a good idea).

 Sorry, I miss the follow informations:

That's the problem. Because Samba has to present a case insensitive
view of a case-sensitive filesystem we have to scan the entire
directory to ensure a file doesn't exist.

The answer to the why is Samba slow question in this case is
don't do that (put 100,000 files in a directory).

[Samba] SAMBA and NFS

2004-07-07 Thread bastard operater

Can samba connect to an NFS share and then re-export that share so my 
windows XP users can connect to it?  Basically I have a NFS share that all 
of my windows XP users need read-only access to.  The goal of this project 
is to replace an old MS Gateway Services for Novell server (using IPX) with 
something that can do the same thing but over IP.  I am pretty sure Novell 
and AD can share files using Native File Access, but that would require the 
Novell admins to get CIFS setup on the Novell side.  The Novell server we 
are using has NFS already setup and getting that much setup was like pulling 
teeth.

Thanks,
BOFH1234

Yes and no.
Samba cannot do this *but* Samba probably doesn't need to.  Linux can
mount NFS so you should be able to simply mount the NFS share first and
then neglect to tell Samba that it isn't a normal directory.  As far as
I know, Samba has no way of knowing the difference. This should work
especially well with a read only share because you won't need oplocks or
special cacheing or anything.

[Samba] Browsing 3.0.2 from Windows 2000 domain

2004-07-07 Thread jlee

Hi,

I'm trying to make a linux file server that is browseable from a windows 
2000 domain, via authentication from a windows 2000 server. Ultimately, I 
want to be able to control permissions on the samba shares using Windows 
2000 Server Manager. Something like: 

Windows XP(client) - Samba(file server) - [authenticates through] 
Windows 2000 server

So far, I CAN browse the server by typing the IP address on the windows 
side, but I cannot log onto the computer from just browsing the network. 
The samba file server shows through browsing the network on the WinXP 
client. But when I double click, I get the following error: 

\\LINUXSERVER is not accessible. You might not have permission to use 
this network resource. Contact...

Also, when I try to use server manager from my Windows 2000 Server, I get 
access is denied. I thought I can control shares from here?

Here's my smb.conf

[global]
workgroup = WINDOMAIN
server string = Samba Server %v
security = DOMAIN
map to guest = Bad User
log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
max log size = 50

hosts allow = 192.168.0.
printing = cups

[test1]

Does it have anything to do with the following errors on log.nmbd

RE: [Samba] Profiles

2004-07-07 Thread Miles Scruggs

Thanks for your help Rob, but please reply to the list so that others can be
helped.
 
 Even though it might not look like it is so, your profiles are likely
 only being stored locally.

As I stated before, the profiles are saved to the server, but each client I
login to using the same user, has a different profile which is saved to the
same location.  For instance:

If user A logins into machine A and creates a folder A then logs out, folder
A is saved on the server, when user A logs back in to machine A he sees
folder A on his desktop

Now if user A logs into machine B he sees a blank desktop if he creates a
folder B and logs out on the server I can see both folders A and B, but the
user can only see folders that were created on the machine he logged into.  

In addition the home directory is only available to the user on the machine
which he first logged into.

 In our case, I have a dmusers group that each user is a member of and
 the dmusers group has rw rights to the profiles directory on the server.
 
 What Windows does is store the profile on the local machine and will
 update the 'roaming profile' on the server, if applicable. You might not
 be seeing or receiving an error message stating that they aren't able to
 update/upload the profile to the server.

Correct there are no errors on login from the client, but the profile is
being saved it just isn't moving.

 
 Check in your Windows Event viewer to see if there are any message
 stating that.

There is one prevalent msg here, I'm not sure what it means, but here it is:
Windows has detected that Offline Caching is enabled on the roaming profile
share - to avoid potential profile corruption, Offline file caching must be
disabled on shares where roaming profiles are stored

While that means good I don't have any offline file caching active on the
shares, and I highly doubt this is the reason for my problem.


 
  I would also check permissions on the 'profiles' directory. It might
 need a decent alteration of the existing permissions to allow the
 profiles to be updated.

The permsions appear to be correct, and files are being updated at that
location.

Any other ideas?

Miles

 I have a few weird problems with profiles on my samba PDC.  Right now I'm

 Samba version 3.0.2a-Debian
 
 The problems that I'm having and I believe are related are:
 
 1.) Profiles are saved to the server, but don't migrate to different
 clients.  This is very odd, I can make all sorts of changes to the
 profile
 and I can see those changes being saved to the server.  When I log back
 in
 those changes are loaded to the local machine, if I try to login to
 another
 client, I see a totally separate profile.
 
 The kicker is that all data is being saved to the same path, but somehow
 it
 can differenetite which client is logging in.
 
 2.) Once the profile is created on one client, the home dir is writable
 to
 only that client.
 
 The home dirs and profile dir is two separate locations
 
 /home/%u for homedirs
 /home/profile/%u for profiles
 
 
 Thanks for the help

Re: [Samba] SAMBA and NFS

2004-07-07 Thread bastard operater

Thank you for the response.  Would there still be a performance problem if I 
had two NICs in the PC?  One to connect to the NFS share and the second NIC 
to connect to the windows PCs?  I am talking about a maximum of 20 people 
connecting to the samba share with at most 5-6 people passing data over the 
share.  The samba server would be a 2.2GHz PC with 512MB of RAM.

This is worse than I thought...

[Samba] Hiding some stuff

2004-07-07 Thread Mário Gamito

Hi,

Is there a way i could hide netlogon, profiles, homes, etc., from my
windows 2000 users ?
Will hide files solves the issue, or is there another way ?

Any help would be appreciated.

   I know how to hide the netlogon and profiles directories. Put them 
somewhere on the server that isn't shared.

   I think there is also a setting within the smb.conf to not 
share/create the users 'home' directory.

Hello,

But where in Windows Explorer? Under the My Network Places or as a drive letter? If you map them a drive letter, you can't very well hide that. However if you mean under My Network Places then that is 
the browsable setting in the smb.conf for each share.

Like someone else said, you could not configure Samba to create home and profile shares. However home dirs are usually where people are suppose to save their documents on the server so they would want 
to be able to get there unless that is not your standard.

   Not really much of a slowdown. I have that confirugation setup 
within my own network with roughly 25 users. Primarily, they are 
accessing Samba from the server hosting the files, however if need be 
those Samba shares can be accessed via NFS then Samba off the second 
Server. I configured the two servers 'identically' with the second 
server running an rsyne between the 'share' and a 'share2' over NFS, 
that way if the primary server fails, all I need to do is change umount 
'share2' and remount it as 'share' and voila no other changes are 
necesary, since the same fileshares are already available through Samba 
via both servers.

   If I wanted to, I could quickly edit the smb.conf file to change the 
'server' name the second server broadcasts and within a few minutes 
everyone will be 'reconnected' to the 'original' server.

   In my tests, there really is very little difference in performance.

This will still allow you to type \\servername\share  but you really 
can't get around that if you still want to provide access to the files 
in some manner.  This is often set for homes, profiles, and netlogon shares.

[Samba] Setting home path to a dir within a users Linux home dir

Is there a trick to append an additional directory level onto the defauly behavior of a [homes] share looking in /etc/passwd to find the users Linux home dir? It would offer a bit of protection if 
Windows clients ended up in say the WinHome directory within their Linux home directory when logging in from Windows so they are not tempted to tamper with their desktop settings files for Linux from

Re: [Samba] Setting home path to a dir within a users Linux home dir

How about if you come at it from this angle:
Most settings files on linux/unix are .something.  You could use the 
'hide dotfiles' directive to not show the user those.  Also, you could 
use the other hide files settings to get rid of the rest of the data.

Re: [Samba] Setting home path to a dir within a users Linux home dir

2004-07-07 Thread Jason Boles

From windows, you can map share sub-directories as drive letters.
for example -
\\server\username\WinHome gets mapped as H:\

A lay user (the kind who would delete their linux configuration files)
would not likely remap the drive letter to just \\server\username -
though nothing prevents them, security-wise, from doing so.

As for some other trick on the samba server, you'll have to wait for a
reply from someone else on the list

[Samba] Re: Setting home path to a dir within a users Linux home dir

That is the default. For example though, I've noticed that if I go to the home drive 
in CMD.EXE and dir, I don't see much, however dir /s/b turs up a whole bunch.
I find it pretty common for people to change their Windows Explorer settings to show 
hidden files, extensions is a MUST, etc... so then they will start showing up.
Since the default for homes was to put the Windows profile in a profile directory under the home dir, I sort of got the idea of what about putting the windows home in a directory under the Linux home. 
If they want to share a file between the two worlds, better put it under there.

[Samba] Starting an XP service using samba?

2004-07-07 Thread Todd Snyder

Hey all..
 
first off, I'm sorry if this is posted somewhere or in the docs ... I've
spent numerous hours searching and not had any luck, so here goes ..
 
We remotely admin a few thousand xp machines ... currently we have to
have a person at a machine enable the telnet service for us (through a
handy front end) so we can connect and check things out.  After some
poking around the samba docs, I'm led to believe that there should be a
way to remotely start a service from the command line.
 
Can anyone tell me if I'm correct, and if so, how?  I've tried doing
smbclient //x.y.z.a/TlntSvr -U username but that doesn't work and thats
the closest I've gotten.  I saw a post from 2000 on another list that
mentioned using rpcclient I think, but nothing further.
 
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated as it would cut out a lot
of fumbling around/waiting on hold when trying to fix problems.
 
Cheers!

Re: [Samba] Help with long PC names and AIX

OK I am new to Samba.

I need a solution for a problem of long PC names and short AIX names.

How do I work around this issue?
 This might not work on AIX, but it does for me on a Digital Unix 4.0D 
'PDC' I run.
 In DU's case it's only the 'useradd' command that is limited to 8 
characters in a username. You can plug a longer name into /etc/password 
and every thing else works fine...

 So to add a machine to the domain, I ssh into the Unix machine, run 
vipw, MANUALLY add the machine's name to the password file, save/exit, 
manually run smbpasswd -am and then go back to windows and 'join the 
domain'.

RE: [Samba] Profiles

2004-07-07 Thread Miles Scruggs

I just needed to clarify one thing *See end**

 Thanks for your help Rob, but please reply to the list so that others can
 be
 helped.
 
  Even though it might not look like it is so, your profiles are likely
  only being stored locally.
 
 As I stated before, the profiles are saved to the server, but each client
 I
 login to using the same user, has a different profile which is saved to
 the
 same location.  For instance:
 
 If user A logins into machine A and creates a folder A then logs out,
 folder
 A is saved on the server, when user A logs back in to machine A he sees
 folder A on his desktop
 
 Now if user A logs into machine B he sees a blank desktop if he creates a
 folder B and logs out on the server I can see both folders A and B, but
 the
 user can only see folders that were created on the machine he logged into.
 
 In addition the home directory is only available to the user on the
 machine
 which he first logged into.

This isn't the case with the home dir.  The home dir is writable no matter
which client machine the user is logged into

Thanks Miles

PS can someone please help me?

Re: [Samba] Setting home path to a dir within a users Linux home dir

2004-07-07 Thread John H Terpstra

Easy:

In your smb.conf the following will do the trick:


[homes]
comment = Home Directories
path = /home/users/%U/WinHome
valid users = %S
read only = No
browseable = No

That is what I use on my network. Stops Windows user abuse from ever finding 
the root of their home directory.

 From windows, you can map share sub-directories as drive letters.

 for example -
 \\server\username\WinHome gets mapped as H:\

 A lay user (the kind who would delete their linux configuration files)
 would not likely remap the drive letter to just \\server\username -
 though nothing prevents them, security-wise, from doing so.

 As for some other trick on the samba server, you'll have to wait for a
 reply from someone else on the list

[Samba] Configuration of Samba 2.2.8.a for Solaris

2004-07-07 Thread Majid Chavoshi

Hi all,

I installed samba successfully on our Solaris8 server. A friend who had previously 
installed and configured samba told me that at some point in the configuration samba 
will ask you to enter the NT domain administrator's password for it to be able to join 
the domain and be able to communicate with it. Would you please tell me what 
script/command I need to execute to allow me to do that. As it is, with normal 
installation and activation of the smbd  nmbd daemons, I didn't get to a point where 
it would ask me for any NT administrator's password.

As always, I appreciate your help and wish you a great day.

Thanks.

As an epilogue, here's a little script to find out if there are
any usernames in /etc/group which don't correspond to an
existing user:

   ungroup.awk  /etc/group | sort -r | \
   regroup.awk | while read i;\
   do id $i  /dev/null;\
   done 21 | \
   grep -v :x: | sort

Whereby ungroup.awk is

   #!/bin/awk -f
   {  partsNo = split ( $0, partString, : );
  namesNo = split ( partString[4], userName, , );
  printf ( %s:%s:%s:\n, partString[1], partString[2], partString[3]
);
  for ( i = 1;i = namesNo; i++ )
printf ( %s:%s\n, partString[1], userName[i]);
   }

and regroup.awk is

   #!/bin/awk -f
   {  partsNo = split ( $0, partString, : );
  if ( partsNo == 2 )
printf ( %s\n, partString[2] );
  else
printf ( %s\n, $0 );
   }

Feel free to make it better but it did find 5 more users
which are either no more on the books
or their names are ever so slightly different.

This is of course a temporary cure for bad bookkeeping,
until Jeremy finds out why such innocuous causes
have such drastic consequences and fixes it. Or doesn't.

 the new 3.0.4 Samba installation seems to work fine
 except that from time to time but at least a couple
 of times a day one or more smbd processes start
 running at 20%-40% CPU each and 6 nscd processes
 then share the remaining CPU power. System 70%-80%
 users the rest 20%-30%. Load rises fast to over 4.

 I'm sure that each such process is just idling,
 but why does it engage so much nscd processing?

 As soon as I kill the excessive smbd process(es)
 the situation drops to normal, i.e. load  0,1
 no perceptible CPU%.

 Does anyone know what's happening?

 What does strace say ? Can you attach with gdb to
 a CPU bound process and give a backtrace ?

 Ah backtrace, to see the steps to the black hole?
 OK. Will do, sooen as I get back to office (tomorrow).

 A pot watched never boils.
 But as soon as it happens again, I'll consult
 strace and gdb to see how and why it happens.


 It does, when you stop watching.

[Samba] upgrading from samba-3.0.3-5 to samba-3.0.4-1 on mini-itx

2004-07-07 Thread Paul Farrow

Firstly I am new to this list but have used samba for years on various
flavours of redhat with great results until now.
 
I have recently upgraded my mini-itx v8000 from redhat 9 to fedora core
2.  Samba is fine except there now appears to be no smbmount / unable to
mount with fstab type of smbfs to mount the windows shares.
 
Looking at the version the fedora distribution installed (3.0.3-5) I
thought I would upgrade to samba 3.0.4-2.  Which I downloaded the source
built the rpm and then tried to install and got various dependency
errors all seemed to be telling me that I dont have samba 3.0.3, looked
for various binaries / source for the straight 3.0.3 and cant find
anything.
 
I then decided to try the 3.0.4-1.i386.rpm and got the following error 
 
/etc/security/selinux/file_contexts: No such file or directory   [I
guess this isnt a real problem]
error: Failed dependencies:
 libcom_err.so.3 is needed by samba-3.0.4-1
 samba-common = 3.0.0 is needed by (installed) gnome-vfs2-smb-2.6.0-8

 
any ideas please as I dont normally get errors like this from
distributions !!!
 
Any help appreciated, I have posted on the fedora mailing list also but
to no avail.
 
Cheers

[Samba] ldap smb pdc usmgr create global group with valid users = %S fails = miracle or bug ?

2004-07-07 Thread rruegner

Hi John, and all Samba Fans on the List
i have runnig a smb ldap ( idealix scripts, suse 9.0 ) pdc with a few 
bdcs connected via openvpn.
This works like charme, now i included
valid users = %S in the home share of the ldap pdc for security reason
Samba version is 3.04
then i started to create a global group with usrmgr as i did it many 
times before.
It fails serveral times ( the created group could be seen in ldap,
but not in the usrmgr )
as i removed valid users = %S in the home share of the bdc , it works again.
Is this known to the coders , is this bug , should i bring it up to
bugzilla?
( i think i remember some changelog thing about valid users, but not 
exactly )
At last i bought your official book on the Linux Tag in Germany and find 
it quite usefull, so i recommend it to all sambatistas around the world

Best Regards Robert

Re: [Samba] IE - FF

I was also thinking of doing it this way . I have a proxy server in the 
network , I can redirect all users to a site and run a script to do it. 
But that would take the knowledge to create the virus like script and I 
would have to get around the priveledges I have set for my users.
Creating script = learnable
Changing Privs = pain in the rear

Re: [Samba] Starting an XP service using samba?

2004-07-07 Thread Jason Boles

This can be done from windows for certain.  I'm not sure if samba lets
you do RPC stuff that is required to stop/start services remotely.

What you want to get a hold of is all the MS Resource Kits (server,
workstation, etc).  These have a bunch of command line utils that make
writing batch jobs easy (either .bat or vbscript - though I prefer
perl)

One of those utils is NETSVC.exe, which allows you to remotely stop
and start services.  Though in general, you should never need (or
want) to use telnet or anything interactive when you have that many
machines.  Everything in the windows client world can be done via 3
methods- files, registry (also files), and RPC.  And all 3 things are
highly scriptable.  (there's a perl CPAN module for most everything
too, like registry editing and even event logging).

Server administration uses the above 3 + LDAP.  Though the ratio of
servers to clients is usually low enough that batch server
configuration isn't needed.

With  1000 machines, you might also consider SMS.  Though the
resource kits are much much cheaper.

 Hey all..
 
 first off, I'm sorry if this is posted somewhere or in the docs ... I've
 spent numerous hours searching and not had any luck, so here goes ..
 
 We remotely admin a few thousand xp machines ... currently we have to
 have a person at a machine enable the telnet service for us (through a
 handy front end) so we can connect and check things out.  After some
 poking around the samba docs, I'm led to believe that there should be a
 way to remotely start a service from the command line.
 
 Can anyone tell me if I'm correct, and if so, how?  I've tried doing
 smbclient //x.y.z.a/TlntSvr -U username but that doesn't work and thats
 the closest I've gotten.  I saw a post from 2000 on another list that
 mentioned using rpcclient I think, but nothing further.
 
 Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated as it would cut out a lot
 of fumbling around/waiting on hold when trying to fix problems.
 
 Cheers!
