RE: [Samba] Winbindd on FreeBSD 4.10 Help

What are the clients? How do they get their kerberos tickets? Such a setup is possible, and I've attached my proposed patch.

[Samba] Logon Script to go down one folder?
Hi Folks, Got Samba 3.0.7,1 running on FreeBSD--yippee! One thing that I noticed is that when a Windows user clicks on his folder named something like 'username', there are a bunch of files there that he might 'accidently' delete: .cshrc .login .login_conf .mail_aliases .mailrc .profile .rhosts .shrc Is there some way to automatically log on the user to folder just below 'username' named something like 'username-folder'? That way there would be a lot smaller chance that those configuration files might dissapear. I guess the logon script could be something as simple as: cd %u-folder Where would I put it? What would it be called? Thank you so kindly for your assistance!

[Samba] Re: RAID Drives and Samba
Ok, I'll chime in on this also. For over 2 years I have run at least one server full-time with a 3Ware IDE RAID controller with 4 IDE drives in a RAID level 5 configuration. I have run this with: Caldera OpenLinux Server 3.11 SuSE Linux Professional 8, 8.1, 8.2, 9.0, 9.1 SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 8, 9 Red Hat Enterprise Linux Advanced Server 3 Red Hat Linux 9 Red Hat Fedora Core All without any problems. The controllers are used in a PCI-X slot and operate in 64-bit mode. Performance is just simply great - even under extreme load conditions. I have reported my performance metrics on this configuration at several venues. Please understand the following: 1. Samba has no direct involvement with hardware devices (eg: Drives) 2. Every RAID stability issue I have dealt with has been caused by hardware and kernel driver problems 3. Software RAID in particular is an OS driver issue and NOT a Samba one 4. Samba is NOT bug free - that's a fact! 5. The Linux OS and its drivers are not bug free either 6. Bad hardware is bad hardware - this is pure and simple 7. No matter how hard anyone tries, Samba can not cure a bad hardware problem Apart from all the above Samba still has a long way to go. Maybe, some fine day we will all wake up to a new version of Samba that can cure coughs, colds and global poverty.

Tony Fugere wrote: > I have worked on this for the about six months trying to figure out why a machine could not join the domain. The problem is solved, but without a solid resolution. I want to understand why my system is working all of the sudden. The funny thing is that just today we've resolved similar problem and the source of the problem was nscd - this little caching deamon. It appears that this guy caches both positive and negative responses and if it previously found out that there's no 'machine$' user in LDAP it won't ask for it again. The story goes like this: Samba looks for 'machine$' user and can not find it (nscd gets that cached). It asks "add machine script" (IDEALX script) to create the account. Then, Samba uses NSS call (like 'getent passwd machine$') to retrieve user's uid and sees that there's no such account (nscd remembers the result). For Samba it means only one thing - the script failed to create the account and it returns 'Access denied'. Restarting nscd helps to find user through NSS call and machine can normally join the domain. But, next time a new machine attempts to join the domain - you'll have the same problem. So, my guess is - changing from "%u" to "%m" has nothing to do with your problem.

[Samba] Samba 3.1.0 Available for Download
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Welcome to the first release of the 3.1.0 development branch. This is an unstable release series intended only for use by testers and developers. We make no claims as to whether it even works. The purpose of the 3.1.x releases is similar to what we've used the 'alpha' tag for in the past. These are unstable, development releases that may beat you up and take your lunch money. We make no guarantees. But the 3.1 tree will also has some new experimental features that may entice you to take a look (we hope). Samba 3.1.0 will include changes to winbindd (for scalability), code for implementing NT privileges, some proposed fixes to the printing code's background queue update daemon, and others. So invariably, the question will arise what is the relationship between Samba 3.1 and Samba 4? The answer is that Samba 3.1 is continuation of the Samba 3.x series in an effort to foster further development. Team members are still working on Samba 4 and we will ship that once it is ready. Samba 3.1.x is just a platform for implementing newer features that could potentially destabilize the 3.0.x tree (and delay the necessary bug fix releases). Once features stabilize in Samba 3.1, they will be considered for back porting to the Samba 3.0 tree. If 3.1.x gets a large number of new features that are not suitable for back porting to 3.0, then we will create a stable 3.2 series of releases and start the process over again.

[Samba] Re: Samba and "Enable advanced printing features"
For the record (and to help others on googling): "Enable advanced printing features" is always off and can't be turned on on Samba. It broke some printers on older versions (or something like that). The main reason is that enabling this on Windows let's the printer use EMF which is bad. Read all about in on the Samba docs. And talking about the docs, is there any chance of adding a small paragraph about this ? Google failed miserably on this and the only answer I found was on an archive of this mailing list.

[Samba] webDAV (webclient) interferes with XP logons
Very long story short... 1. Samba server on machine running iptables or behind a firewall 2. Client XP domain logins taking 45 seconds or more. 3. The problem: webDAV (webclient) is running on the XP workstations and this mysteriously triggers access to port 80 on the file server, which in turn adds up to long delays. If you are running an HTTP server and it isn't blocked then these accesses are rejected and they cause little delay. If you aren't running a firewall then they are again rejected, and again, no delay. However, if you have a well configured firewall, and you're not running a web server, then these packets are dropped. This causes the XP client to wait for the connections to timeout which takes FOREVER. This also apparently causes the "slow file open dialog" problem. This is where a "file -> open" dialog takes at least 10 to 20 seconds to show files. Solutions: 1. Configure iptables to REJECT (not DROP) connections to the Samba server's port 80. OR 2. Disable webclient on each workstation. (control panel -> administrator tools -> services -> webclient (set STOP and DISABLE). The first one drops login times down into the 17-20 second range. The second one does the same thing and tends to be more in the lower end of that range (I have not done extensive timing.) However, it presumably will eventually break something that actually needs webDAV. This is information gleaned from a couple of hours googling and then jiggling smb.conf and XP settings. Personally I think this is a massive bug in XP. There's absolutely no reason why SMB connections should trigger web accesses back to the file server.

[Samba] Very weird access problems from win2k3 to samba 3.x
I've got a samba 3.0.5 (I can't get 3.0.6 or 3.0.7 to compile - I'll get to that later) server running and it *appears* to be working just fine. >From the 2k3 system in question, if I open an explorer window I can access the server via UNC just fine, no errors or anything on the Windows side.

(Connection reset by peer) I haven't figured out why I get this yet even with all the searching I've done on the 'net. I've seen other cases where there were firewalls in the way of DNS resolution or something to that extent (none of which are an issue with my setup), however I seem to only get this error when I encounter the access problem which I'll now try to describe. The access problem happens if I open up MS Backup, and try to open a backup set to restore from. The wizard allows me to browse for the file, so when I do if I just type in the server name via UNC, it displays the share fine, but if I try to open the share, I get an Access denied error saying that I probably don't have the right permissions. If I check the permissions (and this is where I've been messing around the last couple of days trying every combo of Samba settings to see if it makes a difference), It pretty much always seems to show that none of the users (used to be Everyone then samba and samba (unix user/group), then I mapped unix groups and it displays Everyone, samba, and System Operators) had any permissions on it at all. I finally used a setting in Samba to give Everyone full access to the share, yet that STILL didn't seem to fix the problem. The weirdest part of it out of everything is, if in the browse window I instead type the full path to the backup set, MS Backup shoots no error at me and gladly loads the file without any problems. So it's like I have access, but don't at the same time? I've gone through everything I can think of. I've tried all sorts of settings and nothing seems to make a difference. I checked against a Samba 2.x system I have and it doesn't suffer from this problem at all. Here's my smb.conf (in condensed form from testparm): [global] server string = interfaces = 127.0.0.1, 197.101.0.33 bind interfaces only = Yes security = SHARE guest account = samba log file = /var/log/samba.log max log size = 500 deadtime = 15 socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_KEEPALIVE IPTOS_LOWDELAY preferred master = No domain master = No wins support = Yes hosts allow = 127., 197.101.0. [homes] read only = No create mask = 0644 browseable = No [disk1] path = /mnt/raid/disk1 read only = No create mask = 0644 guest only = Yes guest ok = Yes profile acls = Yes The "profile acls = Yes" thing was what I added to give Everyone full permissions to see if that'd fix anything, but it didn't. The share I'm concerned with is the disk1 share. There are no homes, but I just kept that there from a general config file I use. I know it's not unix permissions because the path I'm sharing I've ensured has permissions. We can create/delete/modify/list all files in the share via MS Explorer, and all files that are created and such are created with the correct permissions. I would have tried upgrading to 3.0.6 or 3.0.7 to see if it's just a 3.0.5 problem, but when I compile anything newer, I get so many warnings and finally an error (esp 3.0.7) in the smbwrapper. I've even tried compiling without any options and still I get errors. Are there any dependencies on gcc or something for the newer Sambas that would cause this? 3.0.5 compiled with some warnings here and there which looked scary, but it works (aside from this one problem of course :P).

[Samba] Idmap backend for winbind
I'm trying to set up an Idmap Backend LDAP server for winbind. I don't need a full blown SAMBA PDC; just a server to provide the SID to UID/GID mappings. We're using a Windows Active Directory server to authenticate against but we want the above mappings to be the same across multiple samba machines. Can we just stand up a simple ldap server and just add the mappings and that's it or do we have to have a full blown Samba PDC for this purpose? If just the mappings are built, what are the specifics? What entries do we have to add? All the documentation I've read talks about an idmap backend in the context of building a PDC. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
[Samba] Trouble setting up an Anonymous read/write samba server for WinXP Pro users
Greetings, I'm having difficulty setting up an 'Anonymous Read-Write' SAMBA server on a new system with a stock FC2 installation for use with WinXP Pro systems. I'm using the following software on the 'fileserver': - Linux FC2 installed from the FC2 iso's: kernel 2.6.5-1.358 - samba-common-3.0.3-5 - samba-3.0.3-5 - samba-client-3.0.3-5 - samba-swat-3.0.3-5 - system-config-samba-1.2.9-2 Following the instructions and examples in the official SAMBA howto, I'm under the impression that I want a smb.conf file such as: # Global parameters [global] workgroup = MSHOME netbios name = FILESERVER security = SHARE [data] comment = Data path = /export force user = nobody force group = nobody read only = No guest ok = Yes The problem I'm running into is that when I attempt to connect to the share from a WinXP Pro system by simply using the address \\fileserver in an explorer window, I immediately get a 'Connect to fileserver' window from WinXP with a greyed out username set to 'fileserver\Guest' and asking for a password. I'm confused - the whole point of setting up an anonymous read/write server was to avoid having to put user accounts on the samba server. I've found that if I open up the address \\fileserver\data I can connect with no user/pass request. I've also found that if I'm logged into the WinXP system as user 'Tim' and I create a user 'tim' on the samba server, I am not prompted for a user/pass. Both of these solutions are unacceptable for what I'm trying to accomplish. All the howto's and examples I've found regarding anonymous samba servers mention nothing about this problem.

Re: [Samba] Re: Samba 3.0.3 on FC2: windows machine cannot join domain
So I came into work today and did the following:
1. Changed my smb.conf to:
log level = 0 rpc_srv:5 sam:5
log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log
max log size = 0
...
add machine script = /path/to/smbldap-tools/smbldap-useradd -w "%u"
2. Deleted the INFERIOROS$ entry in LDAP.
3. Deleted the ROOT$ entry in LDAP.
4. Attempted to join the domain from INFERIOROS.
It was successful. Something, somehow, is different. The logs were not
very beneficial as the process was successful. I tried to put the
smb.conf back like I had it using %m and the process was still
successful. Comparing the use of %u and %m in the logs also appeared to
be similar enough to not report it.
I tried many combinations of the scenario above including
- with the incomplete root$ machine in LDAP,
- without root$,
- changing the NetBIOS host name of the machine, and
- switching between %u and %m
All the possible combinations of scenarios were all successful in adding
a machine to the domain.
Something has seemed to work itself out overnight. I think it was the
Samba Gremlins. Whatever has changed is not producing the same results I
was getting yesterday. Looking into the possible %-based variables, I
can speculate that %U would cause this trouble, but %u was the culprit
previously. I don't want to test it on my functional server now that
I've got it working perfectly.
However, this raises a few questions:
1. Why does %m work? I understand why, but shouldn't it be used
instead of %u?
2. Does %m work for you (or anyone that has had success with %u)?
3. Could it have been some sort of Windows Cache or Samba Cache type
of issue?<>
<>I think that finding the answer to these questions as well as finding
the exact conditions that caused my problem should be resolved for
Samba, the smbldap-tools, and possibly OpenLDAP (if it is involved with
this problem). This may be something that the samba team looks into. I
am willing to try to reproduce the results, but the domain I have had
this trouble on is now my main PDC, so it will not be put to these
rigorous tests anymore (if it ain't broke don't fix it). Thanks again
John for the helpful insights that led me to work on this issue a bit
more intelligently.

After further review, I don't believe this is the proper approach to the
problem. It seems to me that the %u is being used ambiguously. The logic
of how the published API of the variables and the call to the
smbldap-useradd program makes it important for the documenters to
understand what the tools are doing... not what is happening in samba.
We can see what is happening with the tools by looking at lines 84 to 92
of smbldap-useradd:
# Read only first @ARGV
my $userName = $ARGV[0];
# For computers account, add a trailing dollar if missing
if (defined($Options{'w'})) {
if ($userName =~ /[^\$]$/s) {
$userName .= "\$";
}
}
My understanding is that if I am logged into an XP machine named
"INFERIOROS" and want to join the Domain "SAMBADOMAIN", When the request
is placed by INFERIOROS, the machine running samba for SAMBADOMAIN tries
to look up INFERIOROS. It sees that there is no machine in the (LDAP in
this case) database. So, it turns to the smb.conf file to see what it
should do to add the machine and sees:
add machine script = /usr/local/sbin/smbldap-useradd -w "%m"
After processing through the lines mentioned above of smbldap-useradd
you would end up with $userName == INFERIOROS$
In line 218 where the subroutine add_posix_machine from smbldap_tools.pm
is called the $userName gets passed into line 373 of that perl module
which reads:
my $add = $ldap->add ( "uid=$user,$config{computersdn}.
Don't we want the $user passed in to be the machine name in this case
since it is a machine we are adding and not a user?
This userName gets passed into subsequent functions and I eventually end
up with a well-formed machine in LDAP called INFERIOROS$ with the four
objectClasses: top, inetOrgPerson, posixAccount, and sambaSAMAccount all
filled with their respective attributes. On the other hand, when I have
the smb.conf using:
add machine script = /usr/local/sbin/smbldap-useradd -w "%u"
I end up with an incomplete machine record uid=INFERIOROS$ in LDAP that
only holds the objectClasses: top, inetOrgPerson, and posixAccount (I
assume this is from the module handling automatic account creation that
you mentioned)
BUT ALSO,
I end up with an incomplete machine record uid=root$ (my admin user to
join the domain) with the same three objectClasses and their attributes.
(This is coming from the smbldap-useradd tool)
The sambaSAMAccount objectClass is never created for the INFERIOROS$
record and I get the error "Cannot join domain, the user name could not
be found" (approximately).
Obviously, this is not the desired result.

Some software works well that way, others not at all. I'd guess most packages will not work this way, Windows has a habit of placing locks on files that prevent the same instance of an install from working from more than one workstation. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

[Samba] Mixed Network Issues
Howdy Super Samba Subscribers! I'm looking for a little advice on trouble-shooting our network. We have several large unix partitions that are shared via samba and act as our central file stores. Most of our development machines are Linux or Unix systems. Some of our business people use mixed flavors of Windows. Mostly Windows XP however we have a few older Windows OSs as well. We have had few problems for the past five or six months. However last week something strange happen. One Windows XP system, 2 Windows 98 systems, and a Mac OS X system decided that they can no longer view the network. They don't see each other or other systems. They also don't see the samba partitions. Most all of the other Windows XP systems are still fine. The Mac OS X system can still mount specific samba shares, but can't browse to see that they are available. The only thing I know of that changed around the time of the problems, was the addition of a new Windows XP system to the network. Nothing seemed weird about its setup and configuration, and it has no problems with the current networking. Obviously I can't expect anyone on this list to know exactly what my problem is, but I was hoping to get some advice on how to troubleshoot this situation.

[Samba] Restoring PDC after Crash, Confused
Samba PDC system drive crashed. running 3.01. rebuilt system drive - kept the hostname the same, restored contents of /etc/samba, plus /etc/shadow, /etc/group, /etc/password PDC isn't recognizing machines for SOME machines. Users appear fine. I know that I should have gotten the domain sid previously by doing "getlocalsid" and then restored it by doing "smbpasswd -W SID#" but my understanding was that you no longer had to do the backup and restoration of the SID in version 3.0x. Is that incorrect? What did I miss? Any way out of this other than restoring each machine to the domain? Thanks.

[Samba] Write permission for only server machine.
Good day every one. I have a network with samba 3.0.7 running on a server. Every hour, the server downloads antivirus updates and pushes them to all the clients on the network. My objective is to give write permission for the antivirus share only to this server machine. Other machines should have only read permission. My samba configuration file is as follows: [global] workgroup = pranan netbios name = SANTOSH security = SHARE [test] path = /antivirus guest ok = yes browseable = yes hosts allow = x.y.z. //subnet IP address write list = x.y.z.w //Server IP address But my problem is every client machine is asked for authentication with this configuration and the server needs to maintain login id and password of each machine, which I dont want to maintain. Is there any way of solving my problem? if yes Please help me. Thanks in advance. Reagards Prakash. ___ Do you Yahoo!? Express yourself with Y! Messenger! Free.

You should use your root password, not the one you setup for "cn=root,dc=dcc" to login into LDAP with. Another approach will be to have some other normal user account (like Administrator) and specify it as a domain admin, by adding the following into smb.conf: admin users = Administrator Then you will need to use this user and its password to add machines into Domain. After authenticating as this user, Samba will become root and will use 'ldap admin' identity and the password set with 'smbpasswd -w' to access LDAP.

It must be said that, after the addition of the guest user, I can try to access a share from a windows 98 client, but it asks me for only a password (not the username/password), thus I don't now how to access the share (every password I insert, even if one of the valid users for that share, does not work).

[Samba] Samba and "Enable advanced printing features"
Hi all. I'm having some problems with one of my printers, samba and cups. The printer is a HP Color LaserJet 5550dtn, working with Postscript. We're trying to migrate from a Windows based print server to a new one with Samba and Cups. Since this is printer is setup in a college lab, we're trying to keep everything as close to the old setup as possible, to minimize the problems with the users. I've setup the PS driver in a windows box and the used the rpcclient technique to copy and set it up in Samba. Everything is fine, except that we're missing some (lots) of special features in the printer (like 4/8/16 pages in one, etc...). From my experiencing I gather that the problem comes from not having "Enable advanced printing features" checked in the "Advanced" tab under the printer's properties. So, I check the little box, press Apply and OK but everything stays the same. I re-open the properties window and the box is, once again, unchecked! This is working just fine with the old server. I've setup the level 10 log in Samba but I can't read anything usefull in it.. Please, oh please, don't let this email go un-answered..

[Samba] Problem joining domain
Hi, I have set up a samba server with ldapbackend and now I'm tryng to join a windows XP machine to the domain. Every time go through the steps of joining thr domain I get "Access Denied". I've configured samba to use ldap and alredy done smbpasswd -w so that it can read the ldap database. So when I try to join the domain by doing right click on "My Computer" and then entering domain name in "Computer Name" tab, using the user root and the ldap password, it keeps giving me access denied. Checking the ldap logs I see it tries to find the root user in te users database, but I don't understand why... Wich user should I be using to perform joining? It's root right? And what about the pasword, isn't it the same of ldap? If it isn't where do I set it? I'm using samba 3.0.6 and OpenLdap. Thanks in advance!

[Samba] Problems with Winbind
Hi all, here's hoping you can help with a problem I have got. I am currently running samba 3.0.7-1 on a Suse 9.0 system and I am having the following problem. I am trying to get my samba server to join a windows NT4 domain called BVFL-DOM and then use winbind to get user names from that domain to be use samba. The samba box joins the NT domain without a problem and I can use NT server manager to change who can access the shares, but when I come to trying to access said shares I get prompted for a user name and password. (I have a feeling it is something to do with the way NT is talking to winbind and then winbind talking to samba). I have done all the wbinfo -u and -g on the samba box and I get all the users and groups from the domain coming through, but I can't seem to get samba to use an NT user to authenticate with. If I put a user name in the smbusers file (root = nhaw) then I get access to the share just fine. Below is a copy of my smbconfig file and the log file that was created when a user tries to connect to the share is also attached.

Re: [Samba] Re: Deleting Old Printer Drivers
You could browse the Samba server from your MS client as printer admin. Go into the printers subfolder, click the right mouse button and select properties. Select the "Drivers" tab, choose the driver and click onto "Remove". This works since Samba 3.0.x. Bye, Martin P.S. Perhaps Gerald Carter (or someone else) decides to enhance the rpcclient tool to produce deletedriverex calls. It would be just a little fix. :-) On Friday 24 September 2004 09:34, Jim C. wrote: > M/V Anastasis - IT Manager wrote: > > Hi all, > > > > I am running samba 3.0.6 on Linux and am wondering if anyone knows if it > > is possible to delete a print driver from the driver database?

Re: [Samba] Automating Windows Update
hi there are many ways to do a windows update, using a win workstation with a special designed install pack of sus server which can be free downloaded at ms and setting policies to use it is one way which works very well and is free of costs. Other possibilies is seen is a dos script from the german magazin ct which does it quite well, and simular i ve seen as perl script. But having a susserver is quite the best way, samba is a file server , windows update is more like a webserver funktion, its thinkable to store updates on samba , but you need to have the checking mechanism , which update should be done, so the best way is to use the win implemented service features. fo more info look http://www.susserver.com/ Regards jan ardosa schrieb: Hi guys I was just wondering if there's already a way to automate the process of updating Windows to be specific XP.

[Samba] Locking DB corruption
This is the second time this has happened this week, im runing Samba 3.05 fairly standard config. It happened on Tuesday, when there was no one about (2 maybe 3 users) we were rebuilding a few machines and everything was going fine. Any machines that were logged on would work fine, but new machines failed to log on. We run a small perl script every 15 and 30 mins which run smbstatus to find out who is logged on where, and then works out their quota to see if they are close to running out of space. If they are we use smbclient to send that machine a message. This is the result of that perl script when it finds the locking.tdb is corrupt. - tdb(/var/lock/samba/locking.tdb): rec_read bad magic 0xd9fee666 at offset=330860 tdb_log: TDB /var/lock/samba/locking.tdb is corrupt.

Thanks for any info What you want is a SUS, Software Update Service. You can get it for free from M$. Then all you have to do is tell the clients to poll your sus server frequently. This can be done in many serveral ways: - - by a group policy (up to now only with a Windows domain controller, which is probably what you are referring to) - - by hand (just importing a small registry snippet) - - by some sort of script doing point 2. - - ...

Re: [BULK] - [Samba] Arrggg Samba is not behaving
Chris, I suppose what you are experiencing is a timeout problem. We had that with a loaded samba server and a bunch of w2k clients hitting the server at the same time. CPU load spiked and single smbds stuck in a request for (not sure if I remember the value correctly) some minutes. These smbds where in D state, presumeably in a system call to disk related stuff. During that time interactive behaviour while logged on to the server was very sluggish also esp when touching something disk related. In the end upgradig to a faster machine (SMP) and better disks helped. We get that error extremely seldom now. Also I could imagine that trying the 2.6 kernel might help. Actually anything that keeps processes doing disk I/O from those long times in D state. Linux kernel mailing list ? Uli On Freitag, 24.
