[Samba] Sharing other home directories
Dear all, I'm new to Samba and am trying to set it up on an Ubuntu 12.04 system using version 3.6.3 . Thanks to some great documentation, I actually have it *working* as I had intended. However, there is something puzzling me which I cannot figure out from any of the documentation I've seen (so far). What I would like to do is to share 3 different sets of folders: * home directories * home-like directories -- a path where there are directories, one for each user, inside * a group directory -- for all users of a Unix group This is what I have: [homes] comment = Home Directories browseable = no writeable = yes create mask = 0700 directory mask = 0700 valid users = %S ;guest ok = no [home2] comment = Secondary Home Directories path = /share/home2 browseable = no writeable = yes create mask = 0700 directory mask = 0700 valid users = user1 user2 ;guest ok = no [accounting] comment = Account group path = /share/accounting browseable = no writeable = yes create mask = 0770 directory mask = 0770 valid users = @accounting And surprisingly, it works! But, I'm not sure why...and would like to understand why it is working and more importantly, is it a fluke that will go away in a few days. I understand [homes] is special and when Samba sees it, it looks for user accounts inside that directory. But for both [homes2] and [accounting], I've given paths in two different ways. The first, it is the path one-level up from what I want to share (i.e., because I want it treated like a home directory). But with the second, I want to share /share/accounting and not /share/accounting/user1, etc. Somehow, it seems to work as I'd like it. Is there a reason why this works? The alternative which I wanted to avoid was for [homes2], I'd have to create one entry for each user on the system. So, I'm very happy it works...just wondering why and if it is by some luck... :-) Thank you!

Re: [Samba] PROPOSAL: Remove SWAT in Samba 4.1
I'm just a data point of one. My Samba history is as a user since before 2.0. Shortly into the 2.0.x series I was asked by locals (a point and click lot) to setup Swat so they could manage Samba. I did so and they still f'ed the configuration. That was and remains my only experience with Swat. I won't miss it. On 02/17/2013 04:02 PM, Andrew Bartlett wrote: As most of you would have noticed, we have now had 3 CVE-nominated security issues for SWAT in the past couple of years. At the same time, while I know many of our users use SWAT, we just don't have anybody to maintain it inside the Samba Team. Kai has made a valiant effort to at least apply the XSS and CSRF guidelines when folks make security reports, but by his own admission he isn't a web developer - none of us are! There are many other parts of Samba that have not been substantially maintained in years, but few have the level of security exposure that SWAT does (most are bits of library and utility code that we apply elsewhere, but which just quietly does it's own job). The issue isn't that we can't write secure code, but that writing secure Web code where we can't trust the authenticated actions of our user's browser is a very different modal to writing secure system code. Frankly it just isn't our area. Therefore, it was suggested on a private list that we just drop SWAT. I want to start a public discussion on that point, prompted by http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=700729 which reminds us why we didn't apply the specific CSRF hardening we applied in 4.0.2 to SWAT in the first place.

[Samba] Samba 3.6.1 losing browser elections to WinXP
Hello Samba; I am aware this was a problem years ago... This week I turned up a brand new server to replace an embarrassingly old one. The problem has re-occurred. I expected this to be a problem long ago fixed. I have made the following registry edit to the offending XP machine and restarted Samba. I hope it sticks. I have two questions: 1) Have I missed something in the configuration? or is there some reason this isn't fixed? 2) How can I force a browser election without restarting the daemons? smbd doesn't seem to respond to a SIGHUP.

[Samba] srvtools -- are these really useful?
I have installed 3.4.3 on a CentOS 5.4 box as a PDC with tdbsam for a backend. All seems to be working as expected in the Samba world. With the intention of getting ordinary maintenance off of my back, I downloaded and installed usrmgr and srvmgr in /root/bin. When I launch either of them from a WinXP workstation member while logged into the domain as root, the domain is not found. I can find the domain from the menu and look at various settings, but cannot do much of anything that can be made permanent. Question: Have I omitted some critical setting to make these tools useful? Should I not be able to add users to groups, for example? What follows is some output that shows thing to be configured correctly.

[Samba] Users groups are not synchronized with Samba
Currently I am using Samba with ACL control. My problem is that if I add or remove users from a group, those changes are not reflected for samba access until I restart the samba server. Example of what I mean. GroupA and GroupBUSER is part of no group. Unix: I give GroupA full access to FOLDER Windows: as USER I try and access FOLDER I get permission denied. Unix: I add USER to GroupA Windows: as USER I try and access FOLDER I get permission denied! Unix: I restart Samba server Windows: as USER I try and access FOLDER I get full access. This is definitely not going to work for me. I created an web application that gives me full control over samba and unix users so I can manage user/group permissions for all files and directories in my fileserver. If i have to restart the samba server every time I change somebodies group this is going to be chaos where I work. Adding users to files/folders works fine, its just when I add users to groups that Samba doesn't recognize that users new group until I restart. anyone have any idea how I can solve this issue? is this a Samba parameter that I need to make sure Samba konws when users move around to different groups?

Re: [Samba] How to give user access to only 1 directory on a share?
Yes, use ACL's and all the files and directories that the user should NOT access set the ACL to somethign like setfact -m u:USER_NAME:- DIRECTORY_NAME that will say that even if the directory is 777, that particular user has no access whatsoever. The directory that he/she is allowed to access should stay the same.

RE: [Samba] Second SAMBA Server different NETBIOS alias and shares for ClearCase
We might not have been clear in our question. I will try to explain what we are trying to do. We have a SAMBA Server (Solaris) utilizing an LDAP backend for user authentication. The Samba server serves PCs for authentication and it serves Samba filesystem shares. We want to be able to create a second samba server (Solaris) that can be a member of the domain and also serves shares to PCs and only serves shares to PC. The second SAMBA server does not need to be responsible for PC logging / Authentication. Is that possible and have can I make that second UNIX server a member of the domain?

I don't know if this will work, but I may be able to accomplish my task if I set the os level lower than my primary SAMBA server set the SID to the same as my existing server. I then change the netbios alias to clearcase. I'll then add my views and vobs through either NFS or SANS client to the ClearCase SAMBA server. This way if a workstation using ClearCase needs to use the \\clearcase\views share it will utilize the ClearCase SAMBA server not the primary server. All authentication should remain through my LDAP server since I did not change the SIDs for my server or user accounts. If this plan sound feasible please let me know. If it sounds like I may break my existing architecture let me know. If you have better suggestions I am looking for any help. Thank you for your time, Patrick Hoferer I don't think you're being very clear. In Windows terms, you log into a domain, not a server. It sounds like you want to maintain the same authentication but split an application off onto a different server to improve performance. However, it's not clear if you want to use Samba or NFS to share the files. I'm going to assume that the new server will be providing file services through Samba. If you want the ClearCase server to use the same authentication, just make it a member server in your existing domain. Stop the ClearCase Samba shares on the old server and start them on the new one. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
[Samba] Windows to Linux Samba problems
Hi all, I'm new to the list and found this to be the general place to ask questions, but if I'm asking at the wrong place I apologize in advance and hope someone can point me in the right direction. I'm sort of a newbie w/ Samba, and have been having some strange issues. I have a CentOS Linux Server running Samba 3.0, and I am trying to allow all my users to map their home directories to their Windows boxes. I've been testing this with my own user and another person's. Half the time it works fine, but the other half of the time, it keeps prompting me for the password and I absolutely know that I am typing it in correctly. To double check I tried to set my password again w/ smbpasswd on the Linux server, and get this error message: machine 127.0.0.1 rejected the (anonymous) password change: Error was : Account disabled. I never explicitly disabled my account or the other user's, but we both get this error. I then use 'smbpasswd -e' to re-enable, and it works fine for a day, and again it disables account again. This re-enable and automatic disable happens very frequently. Here's the part of my smb.conf that describes my home directories. Note that also in my smb.conf doesn't yet have extra security like hosts allow to limit samba connections to within the LAN, etc. : [homes] comment = Home Directories browseable = no guest ok = no Read only = no public = no create mask = 0750 Does anyone have any ideas of why this is happening? I plan to allow up to 100 users to map a samba connection to this server, is there a max number of connections samba can take? I'm not too worried about performance now because I just want users to be able to have a nicely mapped drive so they can drag files from their Windows desktop to the server if they need (without the hassle of FTP), but most of the time it will just be an unused connection.

All of my MS clients are NT4-SP6 or better (well newer anyway). Most are WinXP. What I find in the event log of WinXP clients is a message to the effect that the client has joined a NT4 domain (in this case, my Samba PDC) and the MS NT4 generation domain server does not support NTP. A bit of searching has found this: http://groups.google.com/groups?q=ntpclient+nt4-domainhl=enlr=ie=UTF-8c2coff=1selm=%23Oa8EadWCHA.3360%40tkmsftngp11rnum=1 This article contains two links at the bottom which look promising too.

[Samba] Samba, Bind and OpenLDAP
I have successfully configured and populated Bind 9.x with Windoze AD service records and OpenLDAP for the Samba SAM. Questions: When Windows 2K/XP clients attempts to log on when utilizing netbios over tcp (port 139 disabled on Samba), the Bind srv resource records redirect the windows client to an LDAP server. Exactly which Bind ldap SRV records are utilized and what subsequent ldap objects are queried?

[Samba] Need clarification of read list option in smb.conf(5)
Dear Samba, I have a v3.0.6 PDC with shares that are to have the access rights described below: 1. All members of the mrp group are to have r/w access 2. All new files to be created with perm 660 3. All new directories to be created with perm 770 4. All new files and directories are to be assigned to the mrp group 5. One user, joe is to have r/o access 6. No other users are to be allowed any form of access My settings: MRP] comment = Materials, Requirements Planning path = /home/MRP read only = no write list = @mrp force group = +mrp read list = joe create mask = 0660 directory mask = 0770 browseable = Yes guest ok = No What I get is: If user joe *IS NOT* in the mrp group, all access is denied. If user joe *IS* in the mrp group, r/w access is granted as described in the man page. I have read smb.conf(5) ad nauseum and to the best of my reading, the above should work with user joe not in the mrp group. From smb.conf(5): read list(S) This is a list of users that are given read-only access to a service. If the connecting user is in this list then they will not be given write access, no matter what the read only option is set to. The list can include group names using the syntax described in the invalid users parameter. Example: read list = mary, @students So, how do I solve this, and what additional text in the manual could make this clarify this issue?

Re: [Samba] LDAP and Password Values
... without sambaGroupMapping aux objects on at least some of your posixGroups your installation will be of minimal utility - you need the required groups like Domain Administrators, Power Users, etc... to get 'normal' NT behaviour. Excellent.

Now if phpLDAPadmin could only generate the initial sambaNTPassword and sambaLMpassword Where I remain unclear is the ldap password sync flag in smb.conf. If set to yes, does a Windows NT/2K/XP user participating with Samba3 in a workgroup (security=user) automatically have his or her password transparently synchronized on the Samba box the next time he or she attempts to utilize a Samba resource ( if previously changed on the user workstation) or is ldap password sync a Domain-member-specific implementation. -- Raymond -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

[Samba] Problem with NT - Samba User Configuration: Probably very simple
Hi All, my problem is I am unable to configure an NT user to access a UNIX Tru64 5.1b share from their PC. I am running Samba 2.0.7 and it runs as a domain member. Here are the steps I have completed without success: Assuming ntuser is the NT username used to log into the NT workstation/PC. 1. Created UNIX user username 2. Created UNIX directory /usr/users/username/input 3. Appended following line to a user name mapping file defined in smb.conf with the parameter username map = ...: username = ntuser Note: The user name mapping file already contained an entry for another user and the one above was appended to the file. 4. Added the following to smb.conf: [servicename] comment = 'etc' path = /usr/users/username/input valid users = username public = no writable = yes printable = no 5. Restarted the samba daemons. Can anyone spot what the problem is? Have I missed out a particular step? In desperation I tried adding username to the samba password file by running smbpasswd but it would appear this user is already a member. This I concluded from the fact that I typed Enter when first asked for the existing password and when I entered the new password twice the following messages were displayed. error connecting to #.#.#.#:# (Connection refused) unable to connect to SMB server on machine #.#.#.#. Error was : code 0. Failed to change password for statdat Note the # symbols represent numbers which I have physically replaced with #. I believe they are addresses of some sort. If you know what the problem is please can you let me know as soon as you can. Your help with be greatly appreciated.

[Samba] Panic / internal error signal 11 on access samba share
Hello to all, After years of worriless use of Samba, I've stumbled across a strange error when building up a new system based on an Alpha PWS-600au. My distri is based on Gentoo. The Samba source is 2.2.8a. After compiling, configuring and running, my server is visible and all shares are browsable.

[Samba] Port 445 and Network Neighborhood Browsing
OK, I got Win2K hosts connecting to Samba 3.0 on Fedora 1.0 utilizing port 445 and utilizing system authentication via PAM. Utilized SWB to troubleshoot ( a GREAT tool !!! ) Modified the following default smb.conf parms: encrypted = no smb ports = 445 Set NetBIOS over TCP to disable and workgroup to MYGROUP on the Win2K clients (for testing). Win2K clients registry had cleartext passwords already enabled. Current problems: 1. Unable to -see- Samba server on Network Neighborhood; can mount share with net use from Win2K command prompt. Although not mapped on DNS server, the Samba server has hosts file mappings as does the Win2K clients. This *should* resolve any DNS issues for testing purposes. But still unable to see Samba box on Win2K Network Neighborhood. Can physically create mount from from Network Neighborhood. What gives ??? 2.
