Re: [Samba] bash change from r...@myserver to administra...@myserver
Thank you for the clarification . Does it help if I add ROOT in a group of invalid user ? [global] .. ... invalid users = root bin daemon adm sync shutdown \ halt mail news uucp operator gopher \ mailnull rpm ntp Thank you and Best Regards, Tom Norberto Bensa wrote: On Thu, Jul 9, 2009 at 1:28 AM, supha...@gmx.comsupha...@gmx.com wrote: Hello Norberto, Why it change back and forth automatically between root and Administrator ? sometimes nss reads from /etc/password and sometimes from ldap. I don't know why. Will it lead to any problem in the future? Maybe. If you do: id root id Administrator you'll get back uid=0 So who is uid=0, root or administrator? You know they are the same entity, but machines are too stupid.

Re: [Samba] Simple group question...
Hi, This works for me ,you can try. After join computer to domain then log on to Windows Xp with local administrator account and go to control panel - addusers (select account from your domain) - Grant access level to your domain account as Administrator. Or you can use net command to do this. Open a cmd shell, then execute: C:\ net localgroup administrators /add MYDOMAIN\tom Regards, Tom samba-bounces+hypermonk=hotmail@lists.samba.org on behalf of steve wrote: New to this windows domain stuff, sorry ( at my age learning new stuff can take a while ). I've set up a domain and joined a couple of XP workstations to is and all is fine. What I want to do now is to ensure that the users of these PCs still have administrative rights on their PC's. Can anyone show me the basics / point me to a good guide on how to do this???

[Samba] bash change from r...@myserver to administra...@myserver
Hi Guys, I have posted this subject long time ago but this problem still persistently happens on my linux+pdc server. Here is my server detail , CentOs5.1 + Samba-3.0.25b + Fedora Directory Server So far every is running fine. It is just one thing I don't understand what I have done wrong. Normally if you open teminal window it should be like [r...@myserver /] but sometime when I sat in front the server and open a terminal then it showed [administra...@myserver /]# . And after I rebooted the server ,it changed back to [r...@myserver /] I could not reconstruct the problem whether when it will happen again. Please find below my nsswitch.conf and system-auth file # # /etc/nsswitch.conf # # An example Name Service Switch config file. This file should be # sorted with the most-used services at the beginning. # # The entry '[NOTFOUND=return]' means that the search for an # entry should stop if the search in the previous entry turned # up nothing. Note that if the search failed due to some other reason # (like no NIS server responding) then the search continues with the # next entry. # # Legal entries are: # # nisplus or nis+ Use NIS+ (NIS version 3) # nis or yp Use NIS (NIS version 2), also called YP # dns Use DNS (Domain Name Service) # files Use the local files # db Use the local database (.db) files # compat Use NIS on compat mode # hesiod Use Hesiod for user lookups # [NOTFOUND=return] Stop searching if not found so far # # To use db, put the db in front of files for entries you want to be # looked up first in the databases # # Example: #passwd:db files nisplus nis #shadow:db files nisplus nis #group: db files nisplus nis passwd: files ldap shadow: files ldap group: files ldap #hosts: db files nisplus nis dns hosts: files dns # Example - obey only what nisplus tells us... #services: nisplus [NOTFOUND=return] files #networks: nisplus [NOTFOUND=return] files #protocols: nisplus [NOTFOUND=return] files #rpc:nisplus [NOTFOUND=return] files #ethers: nisplus [NOTFOUND=return] files #netmasks: nisplus [NOTFOUND=return] files bootparams: nisplus [NOTFOUND=return] files ethers: files netmasks: files networks: files protocols: files ldap rpc:files services: files ldap netgroup: files ldap publickey: nisplus automount: files ldap aliases:files nisplus == /etc/pam.d/system-auth #%PAM-1.0 # This file is auto-generated. # User changes will be destroyed the next time authconfig is run. authrequired pam_env.so authsufficientpam_unix.so nullok try_first_pass authrequisite pam_succeed_if.so uid = 500 quiet authsufficientpam_ldap.so use_first_pass authrequired pam_deny.so account required pam_unix.so broken_shadow account sufficientpam_succeed_if.so uid 500 quiet account [default=bad success=ok user_unknown=ignore] pam_ldap.so account required pam_permit.so passwordrequisite pam_cracklib.so retry=3 passwordsufficientpam_unix.so md5 shadow nullok try_first_pass use_authtok passwordsufficientpam_ldap.so use_authtok passwordrequired pam_deny.so session optional pam_keyinit.so revoke session required pam_limits.so session [success=1 default=ignore] pam_succeed_if.so service in crond quiet use_uid session required pam_unix.so session optional pam_ldap.so Thank you , Tom -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
Re: [Samba] shell changed from root@ to administrator@
Thank you Michael, I want to replace my Windows fileserver with Linux and I also use it as authentication server for domain users (Windows) Best Regards, Tom here is my /etc/nsswitch.conf file::: #hosts: db files nisplus nis dns hosts: files dns # Example - obey only what nisplus tells us... #services: nisplus [NOTFOUND=return] files #networks: nisplus [NOTFOUND=return] files #protocols: nisplus [NOTFOUND=return] files #rpc:nisplus [NOTFOUND=return] files #ethers: nisplus [NOTFOUND=return] files #netmasks: nisplus [NOTFOUND=return] files bootparams: nisplus [NOTFOUND=return] files ethers: files netmasks: files networks: files protocols: files ldap rpc:files services: files ldap netgroup: files ldap publickey: nisplus automount: files ldap aliases:files nisplus Michael Heydon wrote: Can any one help me why my server always automatically changed from [r...@abc] to [administra...@abc]? I found out that when I repeat this command ,it will change back to [r...@abc] [administra...@abc] authconfig-tui If it is anything like my system, root is a local user (defined in /etc/passwd) while administrator is defined in ldap with the same UID. It sounds like your system is using LDAP to resolve the username before passwd. What does your /etc/nsswitch.conf look like? I suspect that the Redhat/Centos support people might be more knowledgeable about this stuff, as far as I can see your problem has nothing to do with samba. *Michael Heydon - IT Administrator * micha...@jaswin.com.au mailto:micha...@jaswin.com.au -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
