I'm atttempting to setup samba 3 as a primary domain controller which authenticates users from a windows 2k/xp prof workstation and maps their respective home folders as well as their respective shared folders on the gentoo server. For example, I have the following groups with their designated shares:
Group Shared Dir ------------ ------------------ water /home/water tms /home/tms accounting /home/accounting and I have the users and groups User Group ------------ ------------------- bill tms , water, accounting jill water I am unable to get a client to join a domain unless I login and join as root. The workstation display errors with username or password as incorrect. However, when I go to network neighborhood, I can still see the domain and see the shares on the server. please advise? thanks in advance I do however add the machines to the tdbsam database by issuing the command: Code: # smbpasswd -a -m <machine name> and add the following line to the /etc/passwd file Code: <machine name>$:x:410:400:workstation:/dev/null:/bin/false Here is some other relavant information > net groupmap list # net groupmap list System Operators (S-1-5-32-549) -> -1 Replicators (S-1-5-32-552) -> -1 Guests (S-1-5-32-546) -> -1 TMS (S-1-5-21-2557073695-1402744893-439265927-1821) -> tms Power Users (S-1-5-32-547) -> -1 Accounting (S-1-5-21-2557073695-1402744893-439265927-1817) -> accounting Print Operators (S-1-5-32-550) -> -1 Administrators (S-1-5-32-544) -> -1 Waterlogic (S-1-5-21-2557073695-1402744893-439265927-1819) -> water Domain Users (S-1-5-21-2557073695-1402744893-439265927-513) -> users > cat smb.conf [global] workgroup = TMSWATER netbios name = TMSserver01 passdb backend = tdbsam os level = 33 preferred master = yes domain master = yes local master = yes security = user domain logons = yes logon drive = H: logon script = logon.cmd logon path = \\%N\profiles\%u add machine script = /usr/sbin/useradd -d /dev/null -g 100 -s /bin/false -M %u [homes] comment = Home Directories valid users = %S read only = No browseable = No [netlogon] path = /var/lib/samba/netlogon read only = yes admin users = root write list = ntadmin [profiles] comment = Roaming Profile Share path = /var/lib/samba/profiles read only = no [Misc] path = /home/Misc read only = No create mask = 0774 directory mask = 0775 [TMS] path = /home/TMS valid users = @tms read only = no create mask = 0774 directory mask = 0775 [Accounting] path = /home/Accounting valid users = @accounting read only = No create mask = 0774 directory mask = 0775 [Water] path = /home/Water valid users = @water read only = No create mask = 0774 directory mask = 0775 -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
