Hi,
I am wondering the rationale behind this design
decision. I am working on a small network using samba
as the PDC/BDC with most workstation being Windows
machine.
With samba and the User Manager for domain, I can
easily manage the user database from Windows.
In addition to samba, I also run
I have already tried to put smb.conf to /tmp which is
mounted to tmpfs but the disk access continues. I have
no idea why.

Hi,
does samba server access the disk periodically even it
is not serving any client ? I am trying to setup a
home server which is not frequently used and set the
HD to spin down after 60s inactivity. But it get kicks
up again apparently by samba(stoping samba and the
disk won't spin up anymore).
Hi,
The 'add machine script' and 'add user script' is very
handy in creating samba user accounts and joining
machines to domain.
However, the 'add machine script' needs to first
create a 'unix account' in order for samba to proceed
and create the necessary SID entry. This unix account
is no
Hi,
I have reported this(and seen similar problems by
others) before. I took the plunge today and trace into
the source to see what happened. The result seems to
be that winbind(or the nsswitch part) would never work
in a PDC/BDC situation, only for other trusted
domain(probably). Below is my
I am wondering if there is some code which prevents
libnss_winbind to query the samba database when it is
running on a PDC(that is what I am doing and
experience the same problem as you) in this way.
I have even temperarily remove ldap(which is needed
for the unix uid/gid mapping for samba
I have seen the same thing in my two installation of
beta2 and rc4. Some how, I forgot what I have played
around in beta2 and was later been able to do a
'getent passwd DOMAIN\\username' but can't repeat that
again. in my latest installation of RC4. I am
wondering if it has anything to do with the
Haven't looked at the code so I am not sure if this is
the same thing. My experience is that pam_winbind.so
works as expected but linss_winbind.so doesn't. Or
more precisely, it is the getpwent calls failed(but
not completely as if I do an adduser, it barks with

Hi,
I have setup Samba 3.0(as PDC) with LDAP as the

However, the libnss_windbind doesn't work which I have
no clue where should I look into trouble.
Hi,
I have successfully setup a Samba PDC using a local
LAP as the password backend. After I have added the
first user 'testing' through pdbedit, some entries is
added to the LDAP server too.
However, when I tried to execute the 'net'
commands(any) or smbmount or testing out the
winbind(pam),
Hi,
I am trying to setup a Samba3 server as PDC with
OpenLDAP as the backend. To enable a smaba based SSO,
I also install winbind. However, I saw this error
message in winbind log :

Thanks, just found that out that 'pdbedit -a' would
create this entry when I add the first user.
However, I have another problem. I have setup the
machine as a PDC with as :
workgroup = example
netbios name = woody
security = user
domain master = yes
So the domain I believe should be 'example'
People said one minor difference in smb.conf can
result in completely different result and now I
believe it. The reason that it is wrong is that I
don't have 'domain logons = yes' which continue to
make samba thinks it is a stand alone server, not a
PDC/BDC. After that entry, things is getting
Hi,
I read the howto but didn't find much information
about how Samba 3 and Kerberos works together. It
seems that there needs to be an AD server in order to
take advantage of Kerberos.
What I like to know is if it is possible to do
something like the following(all from a linux client)
