[Samba] Date Mismatch

2005-09-06 Thread Danny Paul
I've posted this problems before but have some new information.

Suse 9.1, kernel 2.6.5-7.111-smp, reiserfs, SAMBA 3.0.9 (just upgraded to
3.0.20 today), OpenLDAP backend, as a PDC. 

I've had a series of files get created in user profiles with a mtime of Dec
13, 1901 14:45. 'stat -c %Y' reports -2147483648. When a user attempts to
delete these files from their profile and then log out, the file does not
get deleted from the server copy of the profile. I figured out that this
was because SAMBA represents this date to Windows as Jan 2038 so it thinks
the server copy has a newer file in it.

I suspected this was a Windows problem, but it appears in every version of
Windows, not just XP. If I touch the file and give it any other date, Say
Dec 14, 1901 14:45, Windows correctly displays that date.

This is not a filesystem problem, fscheck is clean as a whistle, this must
be a SAMBA issue. I suspect that whatever problem causes the
misrepresentation in date is also what causes the date to be wrong in the
first place.

Any help?

Thanks

2005-09-06 Thread Danny Paul
The files are getting created on the client by all sorts of different
methods, MS Word, Excel, Acrobat, or from an email attachment.

It gets created on the server when the user logs out and the profile gets
synchronized.

Thanks for your reply - can you send me any information about the other
people who have had similar problems?

Thank you.

[Samba] Re: Re: Change time causes profile corruption

2005-07-20 Thread Danny Paul
Jerry,

Wow, now this problem has changed a bit - the same user received yet another
file but this time with the correct times.  He saved it to his desktop and
the times were once again correct.  When he logged out, however, the file
time on the PDC was set to Dec 13, 1901 - Since the Windows client is
apparently initially setting the time correctly and the time only changes
when SAMBA gets ahold of it, this is starting to sound like a SAMBA bug.

Perhaps a true level 10 on logout is in order, would you like that?

 Could you send me a level 10 debug from smbd of the
 file with a 0 mtime getting created ?  I've got a
 feeling something else is going on here.
 
 Well, not exactly.  The production server serves several users as minute
 so a level 10 log would produce so much output it would be unusable.
 
 Here's what I have.  I upped the log level on an internal only server and
 booted everyone off - then uploaded the file.  This should be the same,
 right?
 
 I've attached the log from that operation.  If this is not sufficient, I
 can try to replicate it in my test domain environment, but it's tied up
 right
 now.  I might also try to come in on a weekend when the use would be low
 and the output not so high.
 
 Thanks for the help,
 Danny

I agree with John's port 139 fix - you might also try setting domain master
= yes if there is not already another server serving this purpose.

[Samba] Re: Change time causes profile corruption

2005-07-14 Thread Danny Paul
Jerry,
 
In this particular instance, the user received the files via email from an
external source, so it's really hard to say exactly why the date is 0.  I
can be sure, however, that the date is like that on the file before it
enters our network.
 
I've had similar problems before, for example if you FTP a file from a site
that has an cheap FTP daemon or some sort of filesystem issue.  I suspect
there is nothing really that can be done about this, except to advise the
user to check these things out before he/she logs out.
 
In an ideal world, the time would be set and this wouldn't be an issue.
However, this has happened numerous times in the past and will likely keep
happening well into the future.
 
Also I've been thinking, it's possible that the mtime is actually maxed out
as opposed to blank.  Perhaps Linux is looking at it as a negative number
using 2's complement arithmetic while Windows is looking at it as a
positive number.
 
Anyway, I'm beat.  I have no idea what to do about those stupid things.  I
suppose I could write a cron job to touch any files with that date?  What
say you?
 
Thanks for your reply.
 
Later,
Danny

[Samba] Blank ctime or mtime causes on files in profile

2005-07-13 Thread Danny Paul
I have Samba 3.0.9 running on SuSE 9.2, 2.6.5-7.111-smp kernel. SAMBA is a
PDC using OpenLDAP as a passdb backend.  Workstations are combination w2k
SP3, SP4, and Windows XP SP1.

The problem I have is with profile synchronization. If a user obtains a file
that has a blank modified time, Windows substitutes Jan 13, 2038 for the
date.  When the user logs out, the file is copied to the share with the
modified date of Jan 13, 2038 AND a creation date of the same.

Normally, this wouldn't be a problem.  However, when the user deletes the
file and logs out, the file isn't deleted from the share.  This behavior is
of course because the date on the file is greater than the folder that
contains it.  Windows then assumes that the file was created after the
current session was started so it merges with the rest of the profile. 
Now, when the user logs in, that file is back.  The file can only be deleted
via shell session on connecting to the share.

As an interesting side note, I discovered that any file with that date/time
stamp under Windows has a timestamp of Dec 13, 1901 under Linux.

Any suggestions?

[Samba] Change time causes profile corruption

2005-07-11 Thread Danny Paul
Greetings,

I have Samba 3.0.9 running on SuSE 9.2, 2.6.5-7.111-smp kernel. SAMBA is a
PDC using OpenLDAP as a passdb backend.  Workstations are combination w2k
SP3, SP4, and Windows XP SP1.

The problem I have is with profile syncronization.  If a user obtains a file
that has a blank modified time, Windows substitutes Jan 13, 2038 for the
date.  When the user logs out, the file is copied to the share with the
modified date of Jan 13, 2038 AND a creation date of the same.

Normally, this wouldn't be a problem.  However, when the user deletes the
file and logs out, the file isn't deleted from the share.  This behavior is
of course because the date on the file is greater than the folder that
contains it.  Windows then assumes that the file was created after the
current session was started so it merges with the rest of the profile. 
Now, when the user logs in, that file is mysteriously back, causing a great
deal of confusion, frustration, paranoia, and eventually dementia for the
user and, now, the SAMBA administrator!

As an interesting side note, I discovered that any file with that date/time
stamp under Windows has a timestamp of Dec 13, 1901 under Linux.  I suppose
that this is due to a '0' in that field being misinterpreted by Windows as
1 second beyond the maximum possible date (Those familiar with binary math
using 2's complement know exactly what I'm talking about.)

Any suggestions?

2005-01-12 Thread Danny Paul
The write list directive is used to override the 'read only' or
'writeable' directive.

The best way to achieve what you want to do is put all the users that need
write access to this share in one group.  Remove the write list
directive, and change the group owner ship of /daten/Install to that group
and the mode to 660.  This will allow access to that group and the owner,
but not anyone else.  See if this works for you.

[Samba] Re: Number of SAMBA client

2005-01-11 Thread Danny Paul
It has been my experience that each SAMBA process has a resident stack size
of about 3-4MB.  You will have one SAMBA process for each active SAMBA
connection.  NMBD memory use seems to be low, 2 processes at around 2-3 MB
each. So, let's say you have a domain with 100 users; plan on 300-400 MB of
RAM just for SAMBA.  Then you must consider the recommendations for your
host OS, + any other service you intend on running.  Also consider the
throughput of your storage devices.

It looks like from your config file that the logon path directive is
\\SAMBA_PDC\profiles\%U.  This means that profiles would be stored on
server SAMBA_PDC, on share profiles, in a subdirectory that is the same as

[Samba] Re: Samba share problem

2004-12-29 Thread Danny Paul
 
 If a user belong to group 'a' logs into the windows PC
 he can access the folder ab but he can also see the
 shared cd folder. If he tries to access this cd
 folder he is asked with username and pasword. If he
 gives the correct username/password of a broup 'b'
 user he is not able to get into the cd folder.
 
 How can I make samba to allow users belonging to group
 'a' to access cd folder when he gives the userame
 password of a group 'b' user.

I don't believe Windows will allow you to connect to the same server with
two different usernames.  In order to connect to the CD chare, the user
would first have to clear his connections to the AB share first.

To test this, try mapping drives using the windows net use command:
1st, net use * \\server\ab /user:auser /persistent:no
2nd, net use * \\server\cd /user:buser /persistent:no 

If the 2nd command fails with Multiple connections not allowed then
that is the problem.

Your best bet is to make another group of AB users that should also be
allowed access to CD stuff.  Then add that group to the valid users
directive.

All the best!

I don't believe there is any way to create group policies on SAMBA domain

However, you can make NT4 style domain policies.  Use poledit from the
WindowsNT resource kit to create your policies.  Save the policy as
ntconfig.pol in the netlogon share.  These policies will work with
Windows2000 and XP.

 ldap passwd sync = Yes
 ldap delete dn = yes
 ldap suffix = dc=ZahidTractor,dc=com
 ldap user suffix = dc=zahidtractor,dc=com
 ldap group suffix = dc=zahidtractor,dc=com
 ldap group suffix = dc=zahidtractor,dc=com
 ldap machine suffix = ou=Computers
First of all, you have two group suffix directives, when you should only
have one.  Beyond that, they are both incorrect, along with the user and
machine suffixes.

The group suffix, along with machine suffix, user suffix, etc are additive
to the ldap suffix.  Your config should look something like this:


   ldap group suffix = ou=group
   ldap idmap suffix = ou=Idmap
   ldap machine suffix = ou=people
   ldap suffix = dc=zahidtractor,dc=com

This causes the context of the group to be ou=group,dc=zahidtractor,dc=com.

Also, the Machines and Users must be stored in the same OU.  It appears that
you have users stored in one OU and Computers stored in another OU.  I
don't believe this is supported right now.  (I believe this is because PAM
will only search one OU for a UNIX user instead of multiples.)

It doesn't appear that you have a profiles share.  This is pretty important
if you want to save your profiles.

Also, you smb.conf file seems pretty bloated.  Typically, I make my config
file as smb.conf.master.  Then, I run testparm -s smb.conf.master 
smb.conf.  This command outputs the options in a logical format and
discards the comments and unneccessary commands.  This increases the
performance and readability of the smb.conf file.

[Samba] Re: Samba Question

2004-12-23 Thread Danny Paul
This is not a SAMBA isssue but a workstation issue.

Chances are, Windows is trying to connect as whatever user you are logged
into the machine as.  Example, if you log in to the machine as user 1,
windows sends user1 as it's authentication information with each
communication.  If you have one SMB connection to a computer as user1,
Windows will not allow you to make another SMB connection as user2 until
the first is disconnected.

If you want to specify that WIndows is to connect with a different username
in the case of mapping a drive, try:

net use drive letter \\server\share /user:username

Once again, this will not work if you are already have a drive or printer
mapped to that server as another user.

This will not work on 9x or ME.  Your only option on 9x is to reboot and log
in as a different user.

Also, for future reference, please always include your server os, client os,
samba version, smb.conf file, any other pertinent information, and a
subject that gives some clue to what your problem may be.  Since you are
posting to a SAMBA group, we know that you have a problem with SAMBA.  For
this, Can only connect as one user or something of that nature would be
appropriate.

1st-SAMBA Problem is a terrible problem description. Read SAMBA Newsgroup
etiquette:

2nd-Most errors can be pinpointed by tailing the samba log file.  For
instance, if your log file was /usr/local/samba/var/log.smbd then do
'tail -f /usr/local/samba/var/log.smbd' 
Then do whatever causes the error.  The tail command will output the lines
that get added to the end of the log file.  This may help you narrow the
problem down.

 SAMBA share. Sometimes we face the problem of read/write access to the

[Samba] Re: Upgrade from 3.0.2 -- 3.0.7

2004-12-10 Thread Danny Paul
 Here are my questions:
 1). Can someone give me more detail on the syntax errors that were
 corrected?
There were certain problems in the samba.schema file of the 3.0.6 release
that went unnoticed until after the release.  The SAMBA team quickly made
available a good samba.schema file and incorporated it into the next
release (3.0.7).

 2). Also, what (if any) effect will I see if I use my existing
 schema/directory with the 3.0.7?
As far as I know, you should see no ill effect using your existing
directory.  You should, howver, use your new samba.schema in place of your
3.0.2 version.


 3). What's the proper procedure to upgrade the directory so that it *can*
 use the updated schema?
As far as I know, there should be no conversion necessary.  If you were,
however, as paranoid as I am you would first make sure you have a thourough
backup of your current setup in case your had to roll back.
Next, I would export the entire LDAP directory to an LDIF file for
safekeeping.
Then upgrade to 3.0.7 and everything should fly fine.  If SAMBA refuses to
function after the upgrade, first do a testparm, since some options have
changed since 3.0.2.
If SAMBA acts like the info in the directory is no good, clear out the
entire directory.  Verify the samba.schema is the one shipped with 3.0.7. 
Then import those LDIF files again.

I cannot imagine a scenario in which an upgrade would fail after all of
that, but of course.

Good luck.

Hmmm.  Glad to hear WINS fixed some of the issues.

I checked out your slapd.conf and everything looks fine there.  I then
reread you previous posts and realized the computers and users are in
separate OUs.  PAM/NSS only allows for one OU for Users, and since a
machine to UNIX is just another user, they must all be in the same OU.

Try putting your machines and users in the same OU and changing all of your
config files to reflect this changes.

Also, make sure that the user you are using to add machines to the domain
has the right to do so.

2004-11-30 Thread Danny Paul
Remove the 'pam password change' option along with the 'remote announce'. 
Also take out the 'password chat' option - it's not needed with ldapsam.

It sounds like maybe your clients don't realize your PDC is also a WINS
server.  Is that info added to DHCPd?  If not, are the clients configured
to use it as a WINS server manually?

Also, I still stand by the wins.dat fix.  It seems like the wins file is
corrupted.  Try it again after everyone has left for the day.

One more thing, run your config through testparm to make sure there are no
errors.  Then catch the output of the testparm -s into a new smb.conf file. 
This way the conf file is optimised and the errors are removed.

I usually make all my changes to smb.conf.master, then do testparm -s
smb.conf.master  smb.conf.
 
Also, please do not contact me directly - only through the newsgroup
