Re: [Samba] Prints ok, but says Access denied, unable to connect. win2k and samba 2.2.1a

2005-02-11 Thread Gordon Russell
Members of the Domain Admin Group will not have this issue. You may or 
may not want to resolve it this way, since it does elevate regular users 
priveledges. If its a small install of responsible users, it may not 
matter.  see man smb.conf domain admin group =.

There is a networked laserjet 5000 using a static IP which I can print

queue
on the linux box. 

The weird thing is that, on the win2k worksations, if I double click on
the
printer icon the status of the printer is reported as 
Access denied, unable to connect. Yet it works???

Hello, I've been having this same problem with several of our laserjet
5000s on our network.  Did you find the cause of the problem?  Any help
would be appreciated.  Thanks

Dude -- Your arrogant attitude towards getting help and resolving your 
problem is not getting you anywhere -- its obviously problematic to pump 
 SMB/CIFS into the internet the way you would like to.  Why don't you 
look at a simpler solution like running an anonymous ftp server and then 
your pathetic windoze users can just type:

ftp://server/directory
POOF
Please read my points on this sort of solution in the past. The whole
REASON I want to use Plain Vanilla SMB is so I can walk up to ANY Windoze
machine on the entire flippin' Internet and go:
Start
Run
\\IP_ADDRESS\sharename

POOF.

so run a non-anonymous ftp server and have them authenticate
I realize you want to do it without installing client software, but you 
can do that via ftp and skip all the SMB jive

That is what I want. Period. It's not unreasonable; this is Samba, not

[Samba] upgrade to 3.0.11, lost domain control

2005-02-08 Thread Gordon Russell
Hello--
I upgraded my RH9 samba PDC server from 3.0.9pre3 to 3.0.11 using 
packaged RH9 rpm from samba site, using rpm -U samba*rpm.

no complaints from rpm. samba stops/starts fine.  However, clients can 
no longer log in to domain. All clients (W2k,XP) get the same error 
message The system could not log you on,...etc.
clients can mount samba shares, however.

I saved a copy of /etc/samba before the upgrade, and copied old 
secrets.tdb  smbpasswd to /etc/samba/., but this made no difference, I 
still have no domain control.  Im at a loss to where to go next and this 
will really be a drag tommorrow when everyone comes in to work if I cant 
get domain control working again

thanks---

I would look for name resolution issues.  Perhaps you have a bad wins.dat.
Also get a level 10 debug log from smbd and `grep NT_STATUS log.smbd | 
grep -v OK`.  Then locate any messages in the log file such as 
ACCESS_DENIED, NONE_MAPPED, etc...

I had upped the debug level to 3 and started seeing 
NT_STATUS_WRONG_PASSWORD errors when users were failing to log in. I 
reset those users passwords in smbpasswd and passwd and everything works 
fine.  At this point I have about 6 out of 50+ users whose passwords 
seem to have been corrupted for some reason.  -- the root group logon 
was a red herring.  As usual, thanks for the quick responses and great work

[Samba] Re: Windows 2000 Scheduler Permission Problem

2004-11-09 Thread Gordon Russell
W2k by default runs scheduled tasks as system user, which isnt a samba 
user. somewhere in the config of the W2K job schedule interface (it may 
be under an advanced button) you can change the user that the job runs 
under. Change it to a user who is in your samba system, and can 
read/write the share you want to access.

[Samba] Re: Hide shares from some users

2004-10-27 Thread Gordon Russell
I can think of a couple of ways to accomplish this.  You could create 
unix groups that contain users that can see some shares, then remove the 
read/write/execute bit (or specifically the -x bit) for world/others on 
the directorys that you want hidden from others. these same directories 
need to have group ownership assigned to the group that is able to see 
them, and r/w/x bits set at the owner/group level. So, unix permissions 
may look like this:

drwxrwx---  user group . some_dir
as long as the x bit is not set on a directory, samba will not allow it 
to be visible at that permission level.

The other way you could accomplish it would be to make the directories 
not browseable, and have  user specific logon scripts that map the 
shares you want them to be able to access.

[Samba] NT4 at jobs samba

2002-10-29 Thread Gordon Russell

Hello:

All of my at jobs that write to a samba share (2.2.5) balk with 
access denied errors. I have force nt acl user = yes on the share, 
but this doesnt help.  access denied only occurs when the batch jobs 
run under at. I can run the batch files successfully at the nt cmd 
line.  I can only guess that nt4 at jobs are running as some kind of 
'system' user that samba doesnt know of. Does anyone know the workaround 
here?

thanks

Gordon Russell
