Re: [Samba] samba(3.6.4), with LDAP backend and sambapasswordhistory issue

2012-05-08 Thread Kevin Taylor
Ok, here's an update. I recreated a user account and started changing the password on it, and now I'm seeing passwords stored in the sambapasswordhistory field. Each time I change it another one is stored. Then, suddenly, the entire sambapasswordhistory entry is wiped clean and it's only stor

I'm still trying to track this down, to see if I can offer any further info. Increasing the log level shows that all of the history requests are happening in pdb_ldap.c, but I don't know that I saw where it was setting the history during a password change. I'm also seeing a lot of 'Failed to

We would like to have password history working in our setup which is samba with Sun Directory Services 7.0 on the backend. Everything else seems to be working ok, but I notice that the sambapasswordhistory entry for any particular user is filled with 0's. If I set the password for the account

We have a RAID set up as our main fileserver (running samba 3.0.33 on linux, CentOS 5). The main disk area is an XFS partition of about 8TB. I'm using iostat to monitor disk I/O since we've gotten complaints about speed and I'm noticing that when I write something to the samba share, the write

Is there a way that we can increment the samba bad password count, when a user fails a password on a linux system? I'm looking for ways to get both Windows and Linux to simultaneously lock out accounts if they fail so many times. We're using an LDAP backend.
