Well, just to prove me wrong I updated ports again and:

# ll /usr/ports/security/tripwire/files/twpol.txt
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  20891 Aug 10 17:46 
/usr/ports/security/tripwire/files/twpol.txt

I've updated, but unfortunately my two main complaints - that of not being
about to package it, and no interactive updates - remain.

I have several boxes with the same problem

you can try to see if there's a bios update, or try to play

Two drives can not be on one channel on SATA controller.
Also try "Sii3112 Windows trouble" on any search site  and you'll find 
many links to problem reports.
SII3112 IS NOT Server (even small-server) chipset. It does not work well

Of course, you can install and use FreeBSD, Linux, Windows on it, just 
dont put load on it with 2 disks.

fsck says "UNEXPECTED SOFT UPDATE INCONSISTENCY"

[Jerahmy Pocott]

Hello everyone,

After a server lost power unexpectedly (read: someone pulled the plug  
out), on reboot

the automatic fsck failed with "UNEXPECTED SOFT UPDATE INCONSISTENCY" as
the message. Running fsck interactively doesn't seem to be able to  
fix it..


Every time in phase one it says:

CANNOT READ: BLK 66322496
UNEXPECTED SOFT UPDATE INCONSISTENCY

CONTINUE? [yn]  

THE FOLLOWING DISK SECTORS COULD NOT BE READ: 66322510,

and the file system is marked as dirty still.. It isn't the root  
partition or anything,
so I can boot the system and mount it read only but I can't repair  
the damage..


Any ideas on what I could try to fix this?

Thanks!

RE: Anyone successfully running FreeBSD on a HP Proliant DL385?

[Ted Mittelstaedt]

Did you send them e-mail about that model?  They track all those
presales queries, it is what they use to determine new models to
add into testdrive.

The problem is there's more models of the DL385 and the DL360
than you can shake a stick at.  While someone here may be running a
DL385 it's a crapshoot if it is the same model of DL385 as you
want.

I doubt your going to get FreeBSD
to run on a SATA-equipped DL385.  But, the scsi controller in the
DL360 and the DL385 are supported by the same FreeBSD device driver.

The big thing is the FreeBSD driver for the RAID array doesen't
support any kind of notification if a drive fails.  You have to
depend on the blinky lights on the front of the server.

This, by the way, is what VARs are for.  Instead of trying to
save a miserable hundred bucks by buying the server off the
website, find a local Compaq/HP reseller and go through them,
and get them to guarentee FreeBSD will run on the thing to get
the sale.

   Ok, i still have problems connecting my freebsd 5.3 to the outside,
i read man 3 fetch and have this examples:

 man 3 fetch
EXAMPLES
 To access a proxy server on proxy.example.com port 8080, set the
 HTTP_PROXY environment variable in a manner similar to this:

   HTTP_PROXY=http://proxy.example.com:8080

 If the proxy server requires authentication, there are two options avail-
 able for passing the authentication data.  The first method is by using
 the proxy URL:

   HTTP_PROXY=http://:@proxy.example.com:8080

 The second method is by using the HTTP_PROXY_AUTH environment variable:

   HTTP_PROXY=http://proxy.example.com:8080
   HTTP_PROXY_AUTH=basic:*::
*** end man 3 fetch*

  Them i add this to my /root/.cshrc

  setenv HTTP_PROXY http://myusername:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:3128
  setenv http_proxy http://myusername:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:3128

   Where 192.168.1.2 is my internal proxy(squid), that let goes out
side, that proxy is begin the firewall, all running on fedora on the
same box, is my setup correct or i didnt understand well?

I dont get it, it looks very easy, any tip there? 

Thanks in advanced.

Not off-hand, if any exist they would have been discussed on the

compiling other options into sshd

[Joel Hatton]

Hi,

I'd like to compile support for FreeBSD OPIE into sshd. Presently I have
to use PAM to achieve one-time password support. On a 4.x system I have
in /etc/ssh/sshd_config

ChallengeResponseAuthentication yes

and in /etc/pam.conf

sshdauthsufficient  pam_opie.so no_fake_prompts

Rather than do this on a 5.x system now, I'd prefer to just enable OPIE
in the sshd binary, but I'm not sure if this is possible with a commandline
option to make. I would like to rebuild it in the usual way:

# cd /usr/src/secure/usr.sbin/sshd
# make obj && make depend && make all install

but somehow define OPIE or, I think, include the configure option
--with-skey=PATH, or both.

Can this be achieved within the regular system build process, or must I
roll my own?

thanks,
joel

Sounds like I shouldn't have any problems then since I'm all upgraded
to 5.3 and 5.4 for the servers I manage.  Do you know of any
performance comparisons for MySQL performance between FreeBSD 5.x and
other operating systems one might run MySQL on?

Most of this discussion is only applicable to 4.x and older and does
not consider the fundamentally different thread library in 5.x, which
was rewritten to avoid the problems of the older version.

ifconfig_dc0="DHCP"
ifconfig_dc1="inet 192.168.0.200 netmask 255.255.255.255" 


When i only have one dc card in the box dc0 everything works, the box gets a
dhcp ip. Put the second one in regardless whether or not the ifconfig dc1
line is uncommented and two things happen, first i get continuous watchdog
timeouts from dc0, second dc0 does not get an IP. As i said the second card
doesn't have to be configured, just in the box and it happens, i've checked
i/o and irq's neither conflict between the two cards. One thing, with a
single dc card the media is set to ethernet autoselect <100base-TX
full-duplex and it's listed as active. Put the second card in and dc0 shows
media ethernet autoselect but for media type i have none and status is
listed as no carrier, i believe this is the reason for the lack of a dhcp
ip, my question is i don't understand why. I've tried:
ifconfig_dc0_mediaopt="100base-TX, full-duplex"
but the system didn't like that. I'd like to tell fbsd specifically what
mode these cards are to be probed to in, but nothing seems to work, and this
only occurs when the second card is in the box. I've tried three separate
cards, all give the same behavior.
Some urgency! Any help greatly appreciated.

dhcp ip. Put the second one in regardless whether or not the ifconfig dc1
line is uncommented and two things happen, first i get continuous watchdog
timeouts from dc0, second dc0 does not get an IP. As i said the second card

i/o and irq's neither conflict between the two cards. One thing, with a
single dc card the media is set to ethernet autoselect <100base-TX
full-duplex and it's listed as active. Put the second card in and dc0 shows
media ethernet autoselect but for media type i have none and status is

ifconfig_dc0_mediaopt="100base-TX, full-duplex"
but the system didn't like that. I'd like to tell fbsd specifically what
mode these cards are to be probed to in, but nothing seems to work, and this
only occurs when the second card is in the box. I've tried three separate
cards, all give the same behavior.
Some urgency! Any help greatly appreciated.

1) No need to tell us 3 times, we heard you the first time.

afaik ALSA is/was not ported to FreeBSD, so you better :
- get yourself another (supported) soundcard
- or find someone to write you a FreeBSD-driver for this card

That's a linux driver; it won't work on FreeBSD.  I thought all AC97
cards were supported by one driver, but maybe not.  There is ac97 code
in FreeBSD; you may be able to get it to work by adding your card's PCI
ID into the right driver's table.  I don't know which table that would
be though.

Problem w/ PAM…

[Sean P. Malone]

…and the problem is evidently me!

Okay.  I was messing around with pam_radius in and attempt to 
authenticate POP requests off of our existing Active Directory. 
Although I was able to get SSH to authenticate off of AD, I never could 
get POP.  Today I finally realized that our checkpasswd program can ONLY 
valid off of the local user DB – we use qmail.  That made sense so I 
decided to ditch pam_radius.


In my eagerness to get rid of it and move on, I believe that I’ve delete 
a file(s) from /user/lib.  Namely, pam_radius.s0 and pam_radius.s02 
(from memory).  If it is true that the absence of these original files 
is causing my problem, I really need to somehow restore PAM.  It seems 
that I have a “fail open” situation here.  I can ssh to the host and get 
a shell without entering a password.  Luckily, one cannot ssh in as 
root, but one can first ssh in as them self (w/o being asked a password) 
and then su right into root – yes, w/o a password!


I’m novice enough to blame myself right off the bat for moving to fast. 
 Thus, I’ve pulled the system off the network and am hoping that I can 
somehow restore PAM w/o a reinstall.  The system is still non-production 
so, sigh, there is no backup. :(


Does anyone know if I can fix PAM?  FreeBSD v5.3

Thanks!

This is a bit of a stab in the dark, but perhaps re-building your xorg-server 
port might fix it. When I update my xserver, I have to rebuild my nvidia 
driver or x will crash when any opengl app runs.
So in your case, it may be some part of X causeing the crash.
I'm running kde & haven't had that problem though.

mDNS inside of a jail or not

[Chad Leigh -- Shire.Net LLC]

On an i386 machine with 5.4-R p1 and p6

I want to run some mDNS services inside a jail.  I am using testing  
programs from Apple from 


Inside the jail the various apps that build when you build the Apple  
project run but they don't seem to talk to each other.


I run them outside of the jail and they die with "unknown  
error" (actually with code -65537 but that is unknown_error according  
to the source).


Has anyone gotten any mDNS type services running on FreeBSD inside or  
outside of a jail?


Thanks
Chad

aaccli uses terminal control commands and I suspect it is detecting
that it is not connected to a terminal and hence not running.
However, I so-far have not been able to get the Cron output to check
for errors due to the fact that the mail server rejects it for not
having a valid From/Sender and cron does not seem to set a From on
its mail or something.



Cron should always set From, To, and Subject:

fprintf(mail, "From: %s (Cron Daemon)\n", usernm);
fprintf(mail, "To: %s\n", mailto);
fprintf(mail, "Subject: Cron <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> %s\n",

maybe ssmtp is doing something with it then since mail I send from

Any ideas on how to get this aaccli program to run in a cron job?

Adaptec really took a step backwards when they went to this aaccli
from the earlier raidutils used with asr devices.  The output is
cryptic and a pita to work with.



It seems to work for me on a PowerEdge 2550 and a PERC 3/Di card.
Putting something like this in cron:

/usr/local/bin/aaccli open /readonly aac0 : enclosure show status :  
disk show smart : container list /full : diagnostic show text


That works better than what I was doing.  I have a "script" I feed to  
aaccli, which work in a terminal but not in cron.  Thanks!  The  
script idea (./aaccli < script) was recommended to me from an Adaptec  
person...

Sound Blaster SB0410 vs. 5.4

[hal]

Just bought a Creative Labs Sound Blaster SB0410 sound card.

It uses the EMU10K1 chipset.

The hardware notes imply that this card will work with FreeBSD 5.4.

I am using the card in a SuperMicro X5DP8-G2 motherboard PCI-X slot.

Here is what I have tried.

From the snd_emu10k1(4) man page:

In the kernel configuration file:

devicesound
device"snd_emu10k1"

From the sound(4) man page:

In the /boot/device.hints file:

hint.pcm.0.at="isa"
hint.pcm.0.irq="5"
hint.pcm.0.drq="1"
hint.pcm.0.flags="0x0"

In the /boot/loader.conf file:

snd_emu10k1_load="YES"

I have tried all the above alone and in various combinations.

cat /dev/sndstat reports no installed devices.

Does anyone know how to make this thing work with FreeBSD 5.4?

The .xinitrc file is a shell script that is executed by startx.  All the
commands you put in there will be run, but watch out for one thing: you
are not allowed to start commands or programs that may "block" for any
amount of time.  The commands of the .xinitrc shell script are executed
by a /bin/sh instance in the order they appear, so if you use:

xterm
fluxbox

then fluxbox will only start *after* xterm finishes.

The solution to this minor "problem" is to start everything but the last
command in the background:

xterm &
fluxbox

To emphasize one more important aspect (that after the last command
exits, then the X session terminates too), I frequently prefix the last
command with "exec", as in:

xterm &
exec fluxbox

just as a tip to myself that when the last command exits X will exit too.

> Also: can I use .xsession instead of .xinitrc?  --I have several
> non-Gnome apps placed at various X+Y locations...

The .xsession script is used by "login managers", like XDM, GDM or KDM
instead of .xinitrc.  Only one of the two will run at any time.

etc in the past with php, so I'll be wanting these.
   Does it hurt to just select all options in case you might need them 
later?)


   BZ2
   CALENDAR
   CURL
   GD
   IMAGICK
   MYSQL
   NCURSES
   PDF
   READLINE
   ZIP
   ZLIB


That seemed go ok, but my phpinfo() does not show anything about mysql, 
which is the main php support that I'm trying to get.

Then I tried this:

*portupgrade -vN apache20*

But I get an error message "No such installed package or port: 
apache20", which exists in /usr/ports/www/apache20.



I uninstalled php5 to start over.

So, how can I install apache2 with php5 and the necessary extensions? Is 
there a way just install apache20 and make the

installation install whatever you need, including php5 in the right order?

thanks,
Bob

I didn't know about the entry in rc.conf; thanks much!
Generally, I use xdm to get into X and ctwm.

Without exiting ctwm, I exec'd the gdm.sh script.
It looked like Gnome was going to work; then everything
died and I was back to my root login (no X).

I'll try gdm (from scratch!) and see what happens.  Thanks
for the clue.

Cron should always set From, To, and Subject:

fprintf(mail, "From: %s (Cron Daemon)\n", usernm);
fprintf(mail, "To: %s\n", mailto);
fprintf(mail, "Subject: Cron <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> %s\n",
usernm, first_word(hostname, "."),

It seems to work for me on a PowerEdge 2550 and a PERC 3/Di card. 
Putting something like this in cron:

/usr/local/bin/aaccli open /readonly aac0 : enclosure show status : disk show 
smart : container list /full : diagnostic show text

gives me a whole lot of info back in the email.

using Linux aaccli in a cron job

[Chad Leigh -- Shire.Net LLC]

Hi

I have a 5.4-R system with an Adaptec 2200S.  I also have Linux  
emulation running and the aac_linux kernel module installed and I can  
run the aaccli program successfully in a terminal window and use it

cron job (same script as I run in a terminal) I get no output.   
aaccli uses terminal control commands and I suspect it is detecting  
that it is not connected to a terminal and hence not running.   
However, I so-far have not been able to get the Cron output to check  
for errors due to the fact that the mail server rejects it for not  
having a valid From/Sender and cron does not seem to set a From on  
its mail or something.


Any ideas on how to get this aaccli program to run in a cron job?

Adaptec really took a step backwards when they went to this aaccli  
from the earlier raidutils used with asr devices.  The output is  
cryptic and a pita to work with.

1. Add a DNS entry that points to the same IP address.
2. Configure your web server to respond to both names (ala virtual hosting).

DNS will not do "redirects", that's a function of a web server.
You can do an aliases. The format would be like this in the zone file.

www.mail   IN   CNAMEmail.domain.com.

So going to www.mail.domain.com is the same as using mail.domain.com.
The only time it is not good to do the above, is when your web server
is doing name based virtual hosting.

For SMTP traffic, it's easy: just edit your DNS and add two MX records
tor "mydomain.com", one pointing to each server.  Incoming emails will
deliver to one and try the other if the first fails.

Clustering the actual stored messages is a lot harder.  I don't have
any suggestions there.

Hi Garrett,

Sorry for not making that clear in the first place: I want to have an

So my problem is on how to set up a partition, say /dev/hda2d on the

-ewald
 

Oh, that's simple then. Just run mkfs_ufs (or something like that) 
/dev/hda2d (that is if the slice exists... run sysinstall and modify 
where necessary to add the slice). Then on your next reboot everything 
should work just fine if you formatted the slice. Otherwise if you 
already have a slice formatted and ready to go, just use that slice in 
fstab.

What's the stack trace from one of those cores?

Also, try not redirecting stdout and stderr to /dev/null; you are

You would need a different mount point.

That trailing '/' would be the cause of the issue since the nodes for

kernel debugger

[Sergey Lapin]

Hi!
We have some networking problem, with PF and route-to, actually,
system locks and
sends junk to net. But I'm able to enter debugger. Is it possible to
localize problem using it?
I have acess to console and get do debugger prompt. I'd like to make
proper report using debugger to send to freebsd-pf list.

able to mount ad0s1, but unable to mount ad0s3!

[Kenny]

Well, my FreeBSD reside in ad0s2. While  ad0s1 and ad0s3 is for Windows.

Both ad0s1 and ad0s3 are NTFS. I can easily mount ad0s1 by typing the
following command:
mount -t ntfs /dev/ad0s1 /mnt

However, when I tried to mount ad0s3 using the same command, it does
never work. The error message is just as this:
Kenny# mount -t ntfs /dev/ad0s3/ /mnt
ntfs: /dev/ad0s3: Invalid argument


It seemed no use for me to get help from the handbook. What is wrong?
Oh, I am quite puzzled.
Waiting for your help, thanks!

Re: fdisk maximum partition size

fdisk does not support >2TB partitions -- at least, I've been unable to
get it to work, just gives me zeros. From the advice I've read, what you'd
be best off doing is skipping fdisk and labeling and just run newfs
against the drive itself. IE:

newfs /dev/da0

Of course, this means you will not be able to boot off of the large
device. That's the price we pay for being "on the cutting edge".

There are still several utilities that do not yet handle large partitions
-- the project page is available here:

http://www.freebsd.org/projects/bigdisk/

Another option for you is available if you're using the 3Ware cards: you
can enable "auto-carving" in its BIOS, to split the device into 2TB
chunks. FreeBSD 5.4-RELEASE can only read the first of these chunks, but
if you update to 5.4-STABLE, with its new twa driver, you can access the
other chunks. (* There may be a better term than "chunks", but "slices"
and "partitions" are already used interchangably (and non-interchangably),
so I'm going with chunks.) This works out pretty well in practice except
for having to divide files between mount points by hand.

If you run into any panics or bugs about this please open PRs. There only
seems to be a few of us FreeBSD users with multi-terabyte partitions and
there are still some bugs to be worked out. You may not be able to get a
kernel dump (I wasn't, even with 5.4-R and <1TB partitions (had to put the
server into production before I could report this bug unfortunately))
but you could still get a backtrace for the developers to use.

Switching left and right sound channels

[John Oxley]

Hi,

I am running FreeBSD 5.4-RELEASE-p2.  I have a CMI sound card, 
04:01.0 Multimedia audio controller: C-Media Electronics Inc CM8738 (rev
10)

I think either my headphones are dodgy, or the sound card is
misconfigured, and sound is coming out the wrong speakers.  How do I
swap the channels in software.

TIA,

If the instructions there don't work, perhaps "kldload
/boot/kernel/snd_*.ko" will get a working driver loaded, then "cat

device driver questions

[m . ehinger]

Hi,

i try to write an device driver for Accelerometer in the Thinkpad T series. 
There is an Linux driver already which i ported to
FreeBSD.

So far i got a working version which returns some useful information.

What i want to know is which is the correct way to allocate io ports? I saw 
some drivers using "bus_alloc_resource" and some use
"bus_space_map".

What is the safest way to read/write to an io port? Simply "inb/outb" or 
"bus_space_write_N/bus_space_read_N" ?

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks

Discs. When I came to install FreeBSD I only used the first disc it

Stranges with ARP

[Steve Langdon]

Hello all.

Help me to solve a strange conduct.
I want to have permanent bundle with IP->MAC for users in our network to have 
some security. So, once my user's MAC doesn't appear in my ARP table, I have to 
block by ``arp -S ..' his IP with MAC generated by my script with prefix 
d1:fa:28.

One day I have a phone talk with my user, he make complaints against slow speed 
in Internet. When I have checked his IP I feel a terrible :)

tcpdump: listening on rl0

While user is blocked by _our_ generated MAC! Btw, could anyone advice me how 
to block user IP block without touching ipfw (I think to use route + 
``-blackhole' to that user that have no his MAC in my ARP table), any ideas?

As I think all traffic must transmit to d1:fa:28:ec:87:98, NOT to 
00:00:f0:87:4b:ca and user's NIC must ignore that packet unless his interface 
in PROMISC mode. Or I'm wrong?

Re: Sendmail & relaying from network

Hi,

  I have three computers networked together - one Freebsd 5.4 and two
  WinXP boxes.

  I cannot get Sendmail to relay messages from the two WinXP boxes. I
  continue to receive an error message that relaying is not allowed. The
  only way I can get it to work is to use the "FEATURE(`promiscuous_relay')"
  directive. That is risky, and therefore I do not want to use it.

  The two WinXP boxes are 192.168.0.3 and 192.168.0.2 respectively. The
  FreeBSD box is names 'ges.seibercom.net' and the main WinXP box is
  'gerard.seibercom.net'. What sort of directive should I be using to
  allow the WinXP box to send mail through Sendmail and still have a
  secure system?   



  Add the IP addresses of the WinXP boxes to /etc/mail/relay-domains

xorg crashing with kde

[RW]

Since the kde update went into ports about a week ago, I've been having a 
problem with xorg crashing.

The problem occurs when a kde session is left in the "background" by a switch 
to either another x-server or to a virtual terminal, and it's left there long 
enough for the monitor standby timer to expire. The crash actually happens on 
switching back to the kde session.

According to the system console the crash follows a stray irq13, and the xorg 
log indicates it died with signal 8. I cant find any other relevent logging. 
I installed xscreensaver  to see if it could be reproduced under xfce, and it 
couldn't. I can work around the problem  by turning off display power 
management in kde.

Well, I think there are enough people around with nnn days uptime (for
nnn > 500).
I myself can think of a handfull of internal machines with such an uptime.

Depends on what you mean.
FreeBSD is no rtos, but has rtprio(1).
It allows to have fixed process priorities
in contrast to the usual 'varying' unix priorites.
But it is still possible for a high priority process
to be blocked by a lower priority process entering a
system call for a non-deterministic amount of time.
This is at least so for 4.X, but may be less true
for 6.X whith the kernel becoming more and more
preemptable.

If you have a problem with a graphical login-manager, all you need do is hit 
control +alt+ Fn  (Fn being any function key up to 8), and login.

There is no need for single-user mode or the fixit disk.

1. Copy over /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xinit/xinitrc to ~/.xinitrc and make
   sure it's executable by at least you, the owner of the file.

2. Replace the final commands (that spawn "a few useful programs") with:

exec gnome-session

3. Done

It's GBDE, not GEOM. GEOM is the system of abstracting disk access, and
GBDE is a GEOM class (as is GELI).

Sendmail & relaying from network

[Gerard Seibert]

I have three computers networked together - one Freebsd 5.4 and two
WinXP boxes.

I cannot get Sendmail to relay messages from the two WinXP boxes. I
continue to receive an error message that relaying is not allowed. The
only way I can get it to work is to use the "FEATURE(`promiscuous_relay')"
directive. That is risky, and therefore I do not want to use it.

The two WinXP boxes are 192.168.0.3 and 192.168.0.2 respectively. The
FreeBSD box is names 'ges.seibercom.net' and the main WinXP box is
'gerard.seibercom.net'. What sort of directive should I be using to
allow the WinXP box to send mail through Sendmail and still have a
secure system?

Single user mode. You can get to it at the boot menu, think it's
option 6, or you can exsacpe to the boot loader and type in "boot -s"
and hit enter. Once your in single user mode you will need to mount
your partitions, "mount /dev/ad0s1f /usr", if your disk is dirty you
will need to run fsck and then remount the root partition in
read/write mode before you can edit your config files. I'm not sure
how XDM etc. is started but I would try in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/ first.
if a xdm startup script is in there rename to something like
xdm.sh-disabled. then type exit to boot into multi user mode and login
as root.

Re: Encrypted filesystem cgd

[Svein Halvor Halvorsen]

>  Is there anything similar in FreeBSD?

As far as I know, there is no encrypted filesystem support in FreeBSD. 
However, there are a couple of disk encryption systems in FreeBSD, GEOM 
and GELI. Both act between the disk and the filesystem layer, translating 
a disk into a (slightly smaller, but encrypted) disk, ontop of which you 
could put any supported filesystem.

And by disk, I actually mean disk, partition, file or anything else you 
could put a filesystem on.

GELI is quite new, and I'm not sure if it's in any releases yet. GEOM 
should be there though. Search the archives and the internet and manpages 
for more info.

xdm,gdm,kdm,wdm do not use your .xinitrc (but they can use your
.Xsession or .xsession file), .xinitrc is only used with the command
startx

you could instead boot from harddisc in "single mode" (sp?), then remove
xdm or configure xdm properly or use gdm or use gnome-session in your
.xinitrc

I have a FreeBSD 6.0-BETA2 machine that's using a WD Raptor 36 GB using
the on-board controller (VIA 8237) of the Asus A7V880 motherboard and it
works perfectly. The most taxing thing it runs is the occasional
buildworld or (re)build of KDE3 though...

samba 3 and local wheel group membership

[T. Kornack]

Hello Tom,


just came across your message when trying to find a solution for another
problem... 

As far as I know 'net groupmap' never makes group members to show up in
/etc/group. It just does a group mapping from UNIX world to SMB world. And
this is what is mainly covered in the Samba docs.

What you need imho is the other way around - somehow mapping SMB-groups into
UNIX-groups. Here is my suggestion:

1. Map the group 'wheel' to a _local_ SMB-group using 'net groupmap ...' as
you already tried.

2. Create a _global_ group in your NT domain containing your intended
'wheel' members.

3. Make the global group from step 2.) become a member of the local group
from step in 1.) using 'net group ADD ...'. Don't worry what old Samba docs
say, from a certain version on (tested it with v3.0.13) encapsulated group
membership works.

4. Make sure winbindd is running on your Samba machine. This daemon is
responsible for the group mapping.

Explanation: The users also don't show up in /etc/group but the group
membership is solved on the fly by winbindd. I found the details in the
recent Samba-3-Howto on samba.org.

Kind regards

Thomas
