Userlevel security, Access Rights: User list inaccessable

[Mayers, P J]

The PDC functionality doesn't full work in 2.0.x, although the actual logon
stuff is feature complete for 9x IIRC. The user lists don't work well, and
won't be fixed. In theory TNG is what you need, *BUT* Luke hates 9x
(understandable) and doesn't own a copy, so TNG is frequently broken when
talking to 9x.

Others may be able to point you in the direction of a version of TNG that
works well, and with 9x. IIRC, version alpha2.5 is "known good".

Cheers,
Phil

Hi Folks, not sure if I'm in the right place, but from what I've read so
far
installing Samba TNG may get me there...

I have 3 w98 clients, 1 w95 client and a RH6.1 server currently running
Samba2.06 as a pseudo-PDC using encrypt passwds and security=user. My
smb shares
on the server and a simple login script to map them runs OK. I want the
server
to authenticate all share access & logins, so what do I have to do to
get Samba
to return a list of valid users?

The message below was posted to linux.samba for quite awhile & never got
any
response other than the usual usenet spam. Hope ya'll can point me in
right
direction... Do I really need Samba TNG? or just a better understanding
of how
to configure Samba 2.06 username mappings? Is there a RH rpm available
for Samba
TNG?

Hi guys, this is my first attempt to setup a PDC & can't find the cause
of this
one in my books or the docs.

I have successfully created a Samba 2.06 PDC and set sercurity = user.
Several shares exist on the samba server & I can logon from a w9x client
and
browse each. 

When I try to create a new printer or share on the w95 client, because
my Access
Rights point to Domain login to NT Server for validation I'm asked to
Add Users.

Error: You have created a share but not given anyone permission to use
it.
       Do you want to Add Users now? <yes>
Error: User list inaccessable at this time?

It looks like the client is attempting to get a list of Auth Users from
the PDC,
but I can't figure out where to config this list for new shares on other
client/servers.

My interpretation of these obvious perameters is for the Samba server
side only
or doesn't suit this application...
valid users =
username =
username map =

Please clarify. Thanks...
