Message-ID: <149389.200010011256@olib> Hi, Well, 18 hours to go until the students are back and I still haven't got the promised NT-Unix password sync. working. I'm running TNG on a Solaris 8 box. If an NT user changes their password, the Unix one is updated fine. But if a normal (non-root) user tries to run smbpasswd to change passwords from the Unix side, the following errors are given: > machine 127.0.0.1 rejected the password change: Error was : The specified password is invalid. as well as complaining of access with the 'secrets.tdb' and 'smbpasswd' files. This bit is obvious, they're not readable by users, but even if file permissions are temporarily relaxed, the above error still occurs. Running smbpasswd as root changes the password fine. Any ideas?

There is, of course, the downside that you then need client access licences for your Unix boxes and any other systems you use to connect to those Unix boxes. > Of course, I'm not recommending this. Just > pointing out possibilities. Quite. Back in the NT4 days, using Samba meant no requirement for client access licences, even if you had an NT4 PDC (i.e. if the PDC did the authentication and Samba did the file/print serving). This made Samba attractive. Now that MS have changed their licencing policy (so that it's the device that does the "authenticated access" that needs to be covered), Samba is no longer as attractive (since there's no financial saving on CALs, though it does save buying the Win2k server licences). I think Samba support for LDAP authentication and support for Samba managing Win2k domains will be our saviour in the long run. Sorry for the mini-rant, and I know it's at least partly off-topic. I think that MS has shown its true colours here with this change to their licencing policies, but it does prove that they have taken notice of Samba as a threat to their revenue stream. And that gives credit to all those who have worked on Samba over the past few years.

I've got a minor problem, but I just can't handle it on my own, so maybe you can... I'm running a Linux Server and a Win2000 Client is connected to it. When I try to browse the shares on the server I always see my user-folder dispayed twice: one time under /homes/username and a second time under /username/username. How could this happen, since I didn't add any options to the smb.conf which could influence the server in this way; under the [homes]-section I set the path accordingly to the system tree, but in no way twice! Another problem I encountered was bound to the cd-rom on my server: I can't access the files on the cds but I can at least see its capabilities. In the smb.conf ([cdrom]-section] I set the preexec option to mount /cdrom and the postexec option to umount /cdrom and both work in the shell of my server, but when I double-click the share using my client I don't see anything. It would be very nice if somebody could help me since I really tried hard but just didn't succeed. Thank you!

These are client side things. You can change as much as you like on the server, but if you don't configure each workstation, nothing will happen. If you want Group Policies, you will need to update any Windows 95 machines to properly support it. Any Windows 9x machine that is a pretending to be a member of a domain can make use of user level access control. I believe it's even possible as a non-domain member (NOTE: I use the term domain member loosely, as Windows 9x does not ever form a trust relationship with a PDC).

Currently I am using version 2.5 on FreeBSD 4.0 with the attached smb.conf file. All the daemons are started, and I have managed to get the w2k box to join the domain.

AFAIK most packages are installed as default to the /opt/samba location. If he had built from source the 2.0.7 install would have renamed the binary files to .old. Source-built installs are as default put in /usr/local/samba There might be several reasons for not showing the correct version:. - You have installed the package/source-install to another location which the PATH cannot reach first. - You are still running the old SWAT - You have not shutdown all the instanses of the old samba (smbd/nmbd). - you are using an old smb.conf file with version-option set to the old version To check if you really have the right binaries go to the location you installed you binaries (ie /opt/samba/bin, /usr/local/samba/bin) and do a "./smbd -V". Remember the puncation before the "/" or you might be overridden by the PATH setting. Check if your settings are correct in the /etc/inetd.conf or /etc/rc type files. If they are correct i reccomend a reboot of the server. (Fix the settings if not) That way you will be sure that none of the old processes are still running and you get a fresh start. SWAT are supposed to be able to kill all instanses of the nmbd and smbd, but I am not sure what will happen if you are running two samba versions at the same time.

For this to work you must 'tune' the line in 'passwd chat =' so that it is in agreement with how your passwd programme responds. Its a messy process that does not report errors accuratly.

The passwd chat takes place on the *nix side. It doesn't matter that you're using NT. In my limited newbie understanding of how this works, when you change your password on the client system (Win9x, WinNT), it hands off the *old* and *new* password info to Samba which then inserts it into the "passwd chat=" dialogue and gives it to *nix. > With as good as Oriely books are, > I cannot believe that the authors didn't include at least one good > example of > this. Does anyone have one they would care to share of changing a samba > password from a Windows NT Workstation? I'm 95% sure there's a solid example in the O'Reilly "Using Samba". They should also have documented the special strings used to create the chat, such as \n for line feed, %o for old password, %n for new password, etc... If it's not in the O'Reilly book, grab a copy of "SAMS - Teach Yourself Samba in 24 Hours", page 326. The example in O'Reilly may not work for your situation, since the login prompts can vary from *nix flavor to flavor and from version to version. Look carefully at the syntax (esp. spelling and capitalization) of your *nix system password prompts, and check to make sure that your "passwd chat =" in smb.conf matches it exactly. I have RedHat 6.0 and recall having to change a capitalized letter in the default "passwd chat =" entry to accomodate the dialogue.

In my organization we have 400 Win95 machines that tie to a WinNT domain. These Win95 machines are organized in different workgroups and operate at "user level mode" to share it?s resources with the other Win95 machines. By "user level mode" I mean they can grab the WinNT domain list of accounts to assign rights to the shared resource. I would like to replace our WinNT domain for a Samba domain. AFAIK this "list of accounts" is the only feature not implemented on Samba 2.0.7 working as a PDC for such Win9x machines. Will it be implemented? In which version of Samba? a) 2.2.x ? b) 3.0.x ? c) None of the above. Best regards, Fabr?cio PS: forgive me for my lame English. I am not a native speacking guy.

For this functionality you would need to get and install TNG 2.6, however, this branch is not undergoing development anymore and its features are soon to be integrated into the main version of Samba.

I first looked in the O'Reilly book "Using Samba" that came with the distribution. In section 6.2.3.1 "username map" it says: "You can also map NT groups to one or more specific Unix groups using the @ sign." In the HTML documentation, it says something completely different. In the section on "username map" it says: The list of usernames on the right may contain names of the form @group in which case they will match any UNIX username in that group".

Why is PDC support essential for serving files and printers ? winbind single sign on support will be added into the 2.2.x series also (for UNIXen that support nsswitch modules). > Nobody's asking for a do-or-die date. But that *IS* exactly what you're asking for. > We just want to know if you'll > deliver in 2000, 2001, 2002 .... 3.0 will probably be "later this year" or "early next year". It will ship when it *WORKS*. We don't want to ship buggy software. Now - does that help ? Software schedules are notoriously difficult to set. It's because we're professional programmers that we wont give you a date. Remember, NT5 was due to ship in 1997 ! What would have happened had you based an NT5 rollout strategy on that date ? Maybe we should just change the name to Samba/PDC-2001 (or whatever date we actually *do* ship). This does seem to work for marketing purposes.....

On the logon.bat, this is a login script that gets run off of the network NT PDC server, not my machine.

But it gives us some reasonable measure to determine if we must find another strategy, if Samba isn't even intending to _attempt_ to be where it needs to be within our timelines. To elaborate: If you say that it'll be available in March and we know that our drop dead is May, we can take a chance that you'll meet your deadline. We'll have a backup strategy naturally. But if you say that you can't possibly make it before September, then we start implementing another strategy NOW ... --BTW: I saw your notes on delivery dates, you don't need to reiterate them.

I'm only going to justify my statements ONCE to someone who clearly hasn't had to write a project plan, or meet deliverables within timeframes. (Otherwise you wouldn't ask the question) If you choose a bad vendor and implementation problems result, at the very least you have a know reason for failure. If you have a known timeline for delivery of X, you can't keep standing around hoping that some dependant resource Y will become available. For this purpose a schedule that isn't met is actually BETTER than no schedule at all! With a known schedule that slips, you can easily adjust your timeline based on the vendor's slip. Without any timeline at all, you can't possibly write your own timeline. Anyone who has even maintained a project plan based on Microsoft product release schedules knows quite well how to plan around them. They are scarily consistent in their product release slipage, their product instability period, etc. It's quite easy to write a project plan based around a Microsoft release date. NOW -- Review final features list, verify that it meets needs 01/01/01 -- Projected release **/**/** -- Redesign infrastructure for implementation 09/01/01 -- Estimated actual release **/**/** -- Play with product in test lab, verify required features 12/01/01 -- Estimated stability date **/**/** -- Move to a small subset of test users 03/01/02 -- Rollout to general population YES, I'M ESTATIC THAT WE DON'T HAVE TO DO THIS SAMBA CODE. However, the samba implementation plan looks like this: NOW -- Wait **/**/** -- Alpha release 1 **/**/** -- Verify functionality -- e-mail to find out that some is still coming **/**/** -- Alpha release X... **/**/** -- Verify functionality -- more e-mail to find out that more is coming [loop last 2] **/**/** -- Beta release 1 -- Verify functionality, implement in test lab -- Write up design plan for infrastructure changes **/**/** -- Production release + 1 day -- Verify functionality, implement in test lab + 30 days -- Rollout to a small user set in isolated environment + 60 days -- Start infrasture redesign.... Do you see the problem with this? No dates to work on anything with, and we rarely get a full confirmation of the intended feature set before the beta release.

That's not a question that has a meaningful answer. We *intend* to complete it "when it works" and that will be "as soon as possible". Does that help - no - of course not. Stop asking questions for which there are no meaningful answers.

I'm not making your decisions for you. *YOU* have to decide when it meets your needs. *YOU* need to monitor the development process, and watch the announcements - and test if it meets your needs. You are requesting standard vendor vapourware promises. I won't give them to you. Yes, it's easy to rely on these to pretend to have a strategy, most IS departments do so - "Sorry boss, we can't deploy this month, vendor X who promised they'd have product Y ready has slipped by 6 months - not *my* fault". Open Source development doesn't work this way.... This reminds me of the press coverage saying the Linux 2.4 kernel is "late" :-).

Jeremey, some of us work at companies with a few more than 2 systems. We have infrastructure to work around. We have hundreds of systems to update, and we need to develop plans to implement an upgrade of this magnitude. Do I really need to say this?

Those are two different orders of magnitude. And given the general crawl of Samba development, I would interpret "asap" to mean November, 2001. I'm used to interpret Sun & Microsoft's "release schedules", to interpret "asap" in terms of Samba is to assume 1-2 years unless you say otherwise. > > But if you say that you can't possibly make it before September, then we > > start implementing another strategy NOW ... > > I'm not making your decisions for you. *YOU* have to decide > when it meets your needs. *YOU* need to monitor the development > process, and watch the announcements - and test if it meets > your needs.

It's not pretend. Your arrogance doesn't change the fact that it takes roughly a year to deploy a whole new operating system worldwide in any decent-sized company. The project plan for Win2K deployment at Intel is volumes in size, for example. Having some sort of basis for a deployment plan is critical. Just because you've never had a strategy doesn't mean that the rest of the world can work that way. But then if you had a strategy, you'd have a timeline and we wouldn't have to do this. Jeremy, it's been 5 years since I got sick of your idiotic comments about real problems I was reporting and I'm flat out amazed that you haven't grown up the slightest in the intervening time period. Some of us have real projects, real jobs, real schedules. You've always ignored anything you didn't like or couldn't personally understand, and that's why everyone's contributions to Samba main were ignored for years and years. Samba would have had PDC support in 1997 if you hadn't ignored everything that those of us who work in real jobs were providing back to the team. Your attitude was certainly why I stopped sending in sniffer traces displaying how Samba differed and why certain errors were occuring. -- Joe Rhett Chief Technology Officer JRhett@ISite.Net ISite Services, Inc.

I used to sit and work with a sniffer long before NT's protocol toy was released. Yet when I reported and demonstrated problems in the implemention, Jeremy would make smart remarks about "who would need that"? and other randomness. I did end up chatting directly with another developer for some time, but sending things to the samba list (it was only one at the time) was useless. 2) I spent about 140 hours once updating the Samba docs. I sent the patches in and didn't get a single reply. When I sent in a comment about that, Jeremy responded that my notes were useless, it wasn't made for people who didn't know what they were doing. Over 80% of my changes were updates to bring the docs in line with recent code releases, and to fix errata or completely undocumented stuff. This was back in the says when Samba released often, sometimes back-to-back. 3) I was part of a group that suggested, then offered a plan for commercial support of Samba. We had Sun, HP & IBM ready to put cash into this for source code rights. Andrew had a really bad taste for this and wanted to keep it developed on personal time. His choice, but it means that we can't contribute money to aid development. So unlike your ignorant self, I have contributed roughly 800 hours of my time and even put my money where my mouth was. Can all those idiots who really think that we should just shut up and accept whatever is handed to us please redirect their replies to /dev/null ? Open source projects don't work without community input, regardless of what Jeremy may think. If the Samba team would ever lose the useless, irrelevant "who cares?" attitude of several members, they'd get a lot farther. And before you say that we can take the code and run with it, duh - I know that. But there isn't a better team out there with the time to do it that I've seen. Luke is damn good at protocol/implementation analysis, but his code isn't up to providing the backbone of the project. He knows this, or he would have take the split and run with it. I don't have the time to be a primary contributor (my strength is in testing and implementation issues). So, no, I don't have a team to do it better. Doesn't mean that it shouldn't be done better.

If it is then it will authenticate your login, not SAMBA, and your login script should run fine. Samba can't be a BDC (at least in 2.0.7). In the smb.conf you need to set domain logons = no (NT will authenticate) domain controller = nameofNTcontroller Now, even though you have a resource tied to a Win95 box, if you want Samba to administer it, it must be set up there. ie. for a shared printer, you must use printtool to create an entry in /etc/printcap for the printer, and create a printer share (you can simply uncomment the one that is in the default smb.conf, but you may have to tune the print command = for your specific printer.

My original comments weren't rude, just uncomfortable in the sense that any criticism is. Why aren't you talking to your own team member about the relevance of their replies? This was why I stopped bothering with Samba. The rude, irrelevant attacks from people who were supposed to be helping out. Those of us who wanted to resolve things couldn't do it for the noise created by people who didn't understand why 100% compatibility was useful, or why we needed X feature. Their world didn't require it, thus no one did. > I am personaly ignoring any other messages in this thread > as I have better things to do I see nothing to accomplish > here. > > [sigh....sometimes I really think this list should > be moderated....] I was trying to make a point about why the timeline and expected deliverables are useful for developing implementation plans. As always with the Samba team, it reduced quickly to irrelevant snipes and off-topic attacks about things irrelevant to the subject at hand. Since nothing has changed and the only useful development in Samba has stopped, I'll remove myself from the list and thus kill the topic. -- Joe Rhett Chief Technology Officer JRhett@ISite.Net ISite Services, Inc.

IMO (I'll be blunt): We need to finish that list of features/requirements that we've been assembling on the ML, then just guestimate, say "March 2001, contingent on developer availibility, the thing working right, and ." Then we have something we're consciously aiming for. If we miss, fine, but at least we'll be aware of it. I remember about a year ago the general impression being that the PDC functionality was more or less imminent. That's still the general impression, except people are finally starting to get restless now. There's kind of the feeling that we've missed something, but nobody's quite sure what it was. This is why Mozilla has milestones; they keep the project focused. They've slipped on a couple, but never really gotten bogged down because they've been able to perform triage and keep moving. We need some sort of concrete feature+timeframe goals, if not for the users' benefit, then for our own! I find the PDC requirements thread reassuring. Hopefully we'll really follow through with it and set down a list of concrete goals and a timeframe. If not... well, it has been said that those who are going nowhere in particular invariably get there.

I thought it was pretty clear that he was *not* asking you to wait until the very last minute to find another plan. You want him to speculate on delivery dates, and he won't do that. Why would you even consider waiting around at all? Samba is not the perfect solution for everyone (at least not yet). If you can't risk that Samba PDC support will be delayed, then you can still deploy a Microsoft solution now. Why get mad at the Samba team for that? The PDC code will be there when it's there. When it is, maybe re-evaluating your infrastructure wrt Samba will be worth doing. In the meantime, screaming at the Samba team for not telling you when they think PDC support will be done isn't going to help anybody. It could certainly be worse; at least this isn't vaporware. They aren't promising you something they can't deliver, because they're not promising you anything at all. All you have is their statement of intent to get PDC support into Samba ASAP. If you're unhappy with that, I'm sorry; but having this argument isn't going to get PDC support done any faster.

He's done no harm, and I think together with the other people complaining, some small amount of good (witness the PDC requirements thread). When you start labelling criticism (good or bad) as "subversion", you need to sit down, take a deep breath, and think VERY, VERY carefully about the implications of what you are saying.

Naw, that was ages ago. I had almost forgotten about it. We're talking around 1995. The point was that we could get sponsorship of development efforts, and I had been willing to put in time & effort on that.

For your information, I was a significant tester of early Samba, contributing many hours using a real sniffer to debug protocol issues. I've contributed to documentation on numerous occasions. I haven't had time to contribute in the last year, but that doesn't change the reality of both my viewpoint - the reality which most of us on the list face. We don't make this stuff up -- we have realtime, real-life deliverables.

To even think that is just a joke. I have been using Samba since 1.18 and have been overjoyed with it. It has been, by far, the most stable and flexible SMB server that I have ever used (and I have used many, and not just Windows). The tone of your messages is extremely arrogant. You mistakenly assume that you know the abilities of others and then proceed to publicily denigrate them. I find that that type of behavior offensive and unneccessary. If you can't be more civil the please leave this list. The use of Samba is up to you. The Samba Team is not beholden to you (or me) for any delivery dates and they make no bones about it. As an IT Manager, I have no problem with this. It is certainly more honest than most of the software that I have dealt with and has not caused me any problems with planning or scheduling or delivering necessary functions on time. You see, not only can I plan and schedule, but I can also do exactly what Jeremy says. I can evaluate the state of Samba by simply following these lists and downloading new code and testing it. If I get impatient for a particular feature to be added, I have the option to actually add it myself because I have the complete source at my disposal. I have been supporting NT under Samba (as a PDC) since 1.19. It's not perfect, but then neither is NT. I will happy when the official PDC stuff is released, but until then I can get by. The benefits of Samba outweigh the additional overhead of using the incomplete PDC functionality. I just can't see what all you're ranting about.

I'm sorry I feel compelled to point out that you didn't respond to the most important part of this email. Have the pizza voucher docs been updated? With most of y'all working for VA now does this mean we can send pizza to just one place. If a pizza guy showed up at va's hq's (wherever in CA you are) with say 10-20 pizzas would there be a way to find the "samba area" in va. Or would the pizzas be "confiscated" by one of the other groups. I am really quite disappointed in this attitude - if you can't help your supporters and users with simple questions then I'm afraid you'll get no pizza from me. :) -sv From gcarter at valinux.com Fri Oct 6 04:04:29 2000 From: gcarter at valinux.com (Gerald Carter) Date: Tue Dec 2 02:31:50 2003 Subject: Pizza vouchers?

The Fat32 support is managed by the operating system. If you can mount it on the Unix/samba machine, you can share it. If you can share it from a Windows machine, Samba can utilise it.

You don't have to touch the source. Just create an appropiate user (like samba; I use my on linux box user) and umask it in fstab (for example 777). And, you could try to use the Samba Web Administration Tool (SWAT) by connecting to the localhost:901. Use your machines root account... It works...

I've read through Lars Kneschke's HOWTO and FAQ pages, which have helped (thanks Lars!), but still I'm having some problems configuring my server properly. The NetBIOS name of my server is HAL. My domain/workgroup is PHYSIOL_TNG. I attach a copy of my smb.conf file at the bottom of this message. I have run samedit as root on the local machine ("samedit -S . -U root"), and successfully created some local user accounts and workstation trust accounts. I can connect to and use services on the machine if my workgroup/domain is set to HAL ("samedit -S HAL -U root -W HAL", "smbclient -L hal -U username -W HAL", connect to file shares from an NT client using "hal\username" as the username in the "connect as" dialogue). I've even manage do join NT and W2K machines to the domain, using "hal\root" as the username used in the joining process. My problem is that whenever I try to make any form of connection to the server using domain/workgroup PHYSIOL_TNG (domain login after successful joining, or samedit/smbclient with "-W PHYSIOL_TNG") then the server just spawns more and more netlogind processes until it runs out of virtual memory. I have a feeling that I've missed something important in configuring things, but after several days of messing about and reading and re-reading all the docs that I can find, I can't figure out what! If anyone has any ideas, or more documentation pointers, I'd really appreciate a push in the right direction ...

It really annoys me when some _______ (fill in adjective) whines about samba shortcomings and then bash people that have made great contribution to IT world = SAMBA. 1. SAMBA team CLEARLY states that samba is a working progress. And still it beats heck out of ANY MS products. 2. There is samba provides list of feature NOT YET implemented on x.x.x release and also what it can do. When have you seen micros**t advertising their products truthfully. 3. PRIORITIES !! I bet many Network admins would be satisfied with with server that provides only file & print services AND ACTUALLY WORKS !!!!!!!!!!! than server full of mickeymouse s**t like internet explorer & mp3player + webtv_client. 4. I have set up samba servers to two different companies to act as NT PDC (ok, maybe they do not provide all stupid gimmicks that ms has integrated into server, BUT ), in last 2 years there has been one problem that MIGHT have been samba related and #?#?%%#?# (a bad word) many problems with #%&#%&%& (oops, another) M$ winblows workstations. 5. "roaming profiles" , as I understand samba_TNG supports them, I haven't had time to try it myself, I HAVE BEEN TOO #%?&#?&% BUSY fixing constantly crashing winblows workstations. I have been too kind to users, but now I started using image cast. "Where are my files ? What happened to that program I installed ?" -"They are gone, gone forever, aah, hah hah, haa. You should have read the email, telling not to save anything on local disk." If I was offered a choise between getting NT Server Licence for free or downloading samba which one would would you think I'dd choose ? - I'dd take the NT license AND I would sell it to some poor sucker and continue using samba myself. To person calling samba team "dense" : -------------------------------------- "Therefore Samba (current) provides NOTHING that can assist me" -THAT I believe, have you tried medication ? ;) "Hundreds of MS windows workstations..." -hah, you deserve that. To Samba Team : --------------- I think SAMBA team is doing great work and do not need to listen whining of a _______. I love samba, and I'm in great debt of gratitude to samba team, keep up the good work. P.S. Oh BTW, how much did you pay for samba ? P.S.S. If you bitch this much for soft that you get for free, I wonder what you have to say when you spend 2000-3000 usd on NT server licence plus another 2000 for hardware that that do not choke under that that bloaded piece of ....

I'm afraid though that user/group mapping code has not been reworked for the next release (and not from lack of desire or awareness of the problem). Tim has made some progress in HEAD, but we need to re-evalute the entire design in order to have the necessary confidence in it. Stay tuned.

It's available from the usual ftp sites, in the alpha directory as : :/pub/samba/alpha/samba-2.2.0-alpha0.tar.gz If people could test this snapshot out and provide feedback about what is broken (probably lots at the moment :-) and let the lists know that would help. The Team will be monitoring the feedback and this will help for the next alpha. Please note that the documentation is not currently up to date, and the POSIX ACL mapping feature is currently missing, but most of the other improvements are all there, and this code has been running under memory overrun/leak detectors for weeks now without problems. Having said that - *please* don't use this on a production system :-) :-). There are several patches missing from this code that *will* be added in future alphas as we get nearer to release, so don't worry if your favourite patch isn't in there - just remember to complain :-). The release notes follow : Regards, Jeremy Allison, Samba Team. ------------------------------------------------------------ WHATS NEW IN Samba 2.2.0alpha0 ============================== This is the first alpha release of the new 2.2.0 codebase for Samba. This version must not be run in production. This code will almost certainly have some bugs and is intended to help the Samba Team prepare an official 2.2.0 release. The documentation in this alpha snapshot is not up to date, there are many new parameters since 2.0.7. This will be corrected in a later alpha release. The upcoming 2.2.0 Samba release will include the following new features: Support for native Windows NT4/2000 printing RPCs. This includes support for automatic printer driver download. Rewritten internal locking semantics for more robustness. This alpha supports full 64 bit locking semantics on all (even 32 bit) platforms. SMB locks are mapped onto POSIX locks (32 bit or 64 bit) as the underlying system allows. Conversion of various internal flat data structures to use database records for increased performance and flexibility. Support for acting as a MS-DFS server Compile time option for enabling a VFS layer Support for server supported Access Control Lists (ACLs). This support will require a specific pluggable backend to be written for each filesystem ACL implementation to be supported. The stable 2.2.0 release should contain support for the following filesystems: Solaris 2.6+ HPUX SGI Irix Linux Kernel 2.2 with German ACL patch Currently in this alpha snapshot (alpha0) this feature is not enabled - the VFS layer has been modified to allow it, but the code is still under development and should be in a later alpha snapshot. Other platforms will be supported as resources are available to test and implement the encessary modules. If you are interested in writing the support for a particular ACL filesystem, please join the samba-technical mailing list and coordinate your efforts. ===================================================================== If you think you have found a bug please email a report to : samba@samba.org As always, all bugs are our responsibility.

The major item from my perspective is that utmp-handling ("configure.in", "acconfig.h" and "smbd/connection.c") was at some pre-2.0.7 stage. Attached is a patch for "configure.in" and "acconfig.h". [ Note that it also includes a check for "AC_CHECK_HEADERS(sys/fs/vx_quota.h)" which is in close proximity in the file and also got missed somehow. ] But "smbd/connection.c" is proving more problematical. Did no-one see the message from the end of last week requesting advice on re-doing its functionality in the tdb-oriented world? > The Team will be monitoring the feedback and this will help > for the next alpha. > > Please note that the documentation is not currently up to > date, and the POSIX ACL mapping feature is currently missing, > but most of the other improvements are all there, and this code > has been running under memory overrun/leak detectors for weeks > now without problems. A question. On a Solaris system we run over 600 simultaneous smbd processes. Our total VM use is 2GB (1GB memory + 1GB swap). This is large: about 3MB per smbd process. Is there any feel for whether 2.2.0 has better (viz. smaller) memory footrpint? > There are several patches missing from this code that *will* > be added in future alphas as we get nearer to release, so > don't worry if your favourite patch isn't in there - just > remember to complain :-).

In "tdb/README" only two flags (TDB_INSERT and TDB_MODIFY) are documented for tdb_store() . Indeed, only those two explicitly occur in the code. But it seems that a third value, "TDB_REPLACE", is also possible (and the test programs use this).

In this moment my ISP is working fine but my workstations with Win NT4 can´t join the samba server. (I suspect my ISP did some changes to the name server). When I use nmblookup -B client_name '*' it doesn´t work. But when I use nmblookup -B clien_IP_address '*' it does. Also when I use smbclient -L server -R wins it doesn´t work, but if I use hosts or bcast it does.

What does this mean, and how do I correct it? 2) When I try to log onto the Samba server when I start my Windows 98 machine, no matter what username or password combination I try, I get "Incorrect parameter". I changed both the workgroup name and netbios name, but to no avail. If I fix my first problem, will this one go away? Or, if not, then how do I fix it?

Perhaps someone can direct me to one? Anyway, here's the issue: I have 5 NT workstation labs on campus each with about 30-50 machines on average in them. I use 5 sun netras with Solaris 2.7 on them. Each one authenicates one of the labs with a samba PDC running on them. The problem is that if students in the lab all happen to try to log in at the same time, the server doesn't seem to be able to handle it, the load average eclipses 250, and then I have to restart samba so that the machine can have any functionality at all. The authentication servers running Samba are on a different subnet then the labs, but people are still able to log in as long they are staggered. I'm running samba-2.1.0... can anyone please help me to figure out whats wrong here? It seems as if other people have been able to have workstation labs without this problem. I would appreciate any suggestions you would have... thank you in advance.

Message-ID: <85256973.006EDF45.00@ttcmta1-7.ttc.com> I am currently running samba 2.07 on Solaris X86 (5.7). Originally when I started Samba in my NT environment, I set "prefered master = yes" and set the browse election to 65. Eventually I ran into problems whereas my NT workstations would/could not authenticate to my PDC. Since then, smb.conf has been changed to read "prefered master = no" and ""os level = 0", but I am still having problems with many more of my machines accross our NT domain. Some of the oddities are... ...WINS database needs to be purged and rebuilt periodically. ...Our NetApp box loses its status as a NT server on the domain, rendering it unusable - this needed to be readded in server manager several times and eventually bounced. ...Two of our BDCs were randomly promoted to PDC. At one time we had 2 PDCs on the domain at once. Our PDC lost its status and was demoted. The funny thing about this is that at no time, other than the original master browser problem, did any of our NT servers point a finger at our Samba server as the source of the problem. ...Many of our workstations, accross the country, cannot authenticate against the domain (PDC).

Hm, why do you connect to a samba server with your logon script beeing on an NT box? You could try to mount the file structureof your NT box where the netlogon files reside (usually %SystemRoot%\system32\repl\import\, IIRC) with smbmount and point your samba netlogon share to this mounted directory..

Message-ID: Hi, we have a 2.1.0-prealpha samba install running on a sparc under solaris 2.7 acting as a PDC for around 200 users. This has worked fine since we installed it around April, however it has recently gone a bit crazy and we are experiencing massive cpu spikes on the system which results in lots of lost connections for our users. The machine has 640M of memory and multiple SCSI controllers with fairly fast disks and certainly has performed fine before. The symptoms are that a lot of samba processeses seem to try and become active at once and come out of swap into memory causing a bottleneck on the system. Anyone have any ideas? Also what are the PDC features of 2.7 as we think it might be an idea to move to this as TNG is no longer being developed...?

I chose this primarily because I needed to get driver for an HP Plotter (which unfortunately I had to pay for). All in all the solution has been pretty stable. I think the root of the problem may have to do with other devices printing to the LPD service on the Jetdirect card. I don't think the LPD code reacts well when it is not the sole source of print jobs submitted to the JetDirect card. (I don't know if this is actually a Red Hat issue or an LPD issue.) I also had some similar experience when some one stole the IP that was assigned to the printer and decided to use it for their PC. I used a sniffer to find out that the hardware address of the device that was receiving the requests was not the same as the printer's HW address. -----Original Message----- From: Greg [mailto:glawler@westmont.edu] Sent: Monday, October 09, 2000 4:18 PM To: samba-ntdom@samba.org Subject: printing woes redhat 6.2 ok, one last problem in my migration to samba from nt.... i added all the jet direct printers (by ip) and i was successfully able to print a test page to the first few i added and then, BAM, no more! now all the printers show up as "Paused" in windows. i have rebooted the server, restarted lpd countless times etc... the message i get from the linux box itself is lpr: connect: Connection refused jobs queued, but cannot start daemon. i have seen many posts on this but no solid or successful solution. thanks again greg -- ____________________________________ Greg Lawler Network Administrator grinch@westmont.edu 805.565.7249 http://zulu.westmont.edu/routers ____________________________________ From fischer at wytech.de Wed Oct 11 16:12:01 2000 From: fischer at wytech.de (Timo Fischer) Date: Tue Dec 2 02:31:55 2003 Subject: profiles don´t get saved properly Message-ID: <00101118204101.01602@server> Hi, I have a samba tng pdc controlling a windows nt domain. client domain login works fine, but if a user changes e.g. his desktop background color it is not restored the next login, folders on the desktop are restored as they should.

Message-ID: <39E57342.E487309D@web2cad.de> Hello guys! We have a novell-net with many win-nt clients (between 90 and 100). Our server machines runs with Suse-Linux. So it runs a Samba-File-Server (Samba 2.0.7) without problems and very stable. So it runs also a Win-Nt-Server as a PDC. Our problem is now, we ?ll quit the novell-net and use a Linux-machine with Samba-TNG as the PDC. Should we use Samba-TNG or LDAP to manage our user-accounts? Has anyone another idea to manage our network? Or is that the right way? Another problem did we have were to manage the rights from the user-accounts over the Samba-TNG-Machine(as a PDC) with the WIN NT Server-machine. It wasn?t possible to create and manage new users and rights from the WIN NT Server. But the Samba-machine (as a PDC) with Samba-TNG 2.6 runs alone in connection to the Win NT-clients stable. What can we do to resolve this problem? I have seen a user-account-manager in kde who looks like the Win NT user-account-manager. Where can i find that manager? So i hope anyone could help us to change our network-system!

The first issue is that anyone accessing the linux box via samba (except guests or on share-level authentication link win9x) or any other non anonymous/virtual service needs a unix account on the machine. If you only want then to access the box via Network Neighbourhood, they also need an smb account. Since you have a PDC, you can get them authenticated off the PDC, by joining the machine to the domain. At this stage, you will have to have a machine account made on the PDC, and then join using "smbpasswd -j DOMAIN -r PDC". If you want to authenticate users for other services (proxy, telnet/ssh) using the same password, you will need to look into things like pam_smb and auth_smb and the upcoming winbind. Alternatively they can maintain a unix password if they need real logins (ssh, telnet etc) On that note, does anybody have a quick description of winbind ? I have just set up our mail server, and would like to authenticate users off out samba pdc. Should I go the pam_smb route, or wait for winbind ?

I'm having trouble connecting to the domain from a remote location in the b namespace. I have no trouble connecting when I'm using an IP in the x namespace. The x namespace is local to the SAMBA server. I'm running Samba 2.1.0 as a PDC in the x namespace. The examples I have seen don't distinguish between whether the namespace designation ends with a dot or not. My client machine is an iBook running NT4 via Virtual PC.

They all seem to talk back and forth just fine until you try to open multiple images from the Samba share in Photoshop. We are a photo lab working with jpg images stored on the SUN server. It seems that some of the images are tied together, Photoshop thinks these two separate images are the same if you tell it to open the second image in a different window it will open the first. Once the first image is closed the second can be opened with no problem, and then you can't open the first image. Any help would be appreciated.

I'm still gathering data on everyone who's voulenteered so as to what needs to be tested and where I'm still figuring. I can give you some intital starting steps. #1) Get the TNG branch from CVS. (If you haven't done this before e-mail me and I'll get you started) #2) Compile it and get it running. Once you've got these two down you'll have good test bed for any testing you have to do.

After a long period of thinking and talking we finally decided to go ahead with it. We can be found at http://www.samba-tng.org. This is only an initial site, the full site is being worked on. We also have a set of working mailinglists at http://lists.samba-tng.org. tng-users resembles the function of samba-ntdom and tng-technical the function of samba-technical. However, I want to point out that the technical list is for technical discussions concerning development; any user/config/problem questions should be directed to tng-users. I would like to ask the public subscribed to these samba lists, because they have an interest in samba development or domain controller functionality, to also subscribe to our lists. The Samba TNG project needs your feedback just as the Samba project needs it. We are working on public cvs which will be announced on our mailinglists as soon as it is available. I've stated them before, but will do so again here: our goals for tng: - expanding the PDC functionality (we want (full) w2k support) - adding printing support - adding interopability features (like: an endpoint mapper) - rewriting portions of the rpc code to make use of our dce/rpc library (which is another project we are doing simultaneously). Subprojects (main goals for our dce/rpc toolkit): - writing an IDL compiler (makes life so much easier :-)) There are probably more, but we'll keep you updated on the lists and the website. Next, who is 'we' anyway? :-) We are: Luke Kenneth Casson Leighton, Elrond and me. David Allen Finch has joined months ago when we started to see the need for a dce/rpc toolkit/library, which is where his expertise lies. We are using tng to get this of the ground. Also tng will benefit a lot from this. Jonathan Graham has joined us as our project coordinator. He will try and manage our deadlines, roadmaps and human resources in the form of occasional volunteers and solid team members. For anyone happy to volunteer, contact us on our tng-technical mailinglist, or directly seek contact with our project coordinator at coordinator@samba-tng.org.

Well, the login works like a charm, I've even managed to map the share on the NT server to run the login script through SAMBA - that was a mind bender. All of my TCP/IP is working fine, and I can browse the network and access shares on other Win9x/NT machines on the network. What ISN'T working is other people trying to see me on the Network Neighborhood and accessing my shared printer and directories on my win98se machine. I'm not visible on the Network Neighborhood, and, the few times I've managed to BECOME visible, no shares show up. Now, form my SAMBA machine, if I run "smbclient -L localhost", I see the entire network AND my Win9x machine.

Richard, A pam config such as the following may do the trick (assuming Linux-PAM /etc/pam.d-style config; does FreeBSD use /etc/pam.conf?): auth sufficient pam_unix.so auth sufficient pam_smbpass.so use_first_pass password requisite pam_smbpass.so password required pam_unix.so md5 shadow use_authtok nullok use_first_pass The pam_unix module for FreeBSD may well have different options, but the module stack would look essentially the same -- if you add your users to the password file with null passwords, then auth will fall through to whichever module you use for checking the passwords in /etc/smbpasswd. When the user runs the 'passwd' command, they *must* enter the password which matches the one stored in /etc/smbpasswd, or the operation will fail. IFF they enter the correct password, both /etc/smbpasswd and /etc/shadow (/etc/master.passwd in your case) will be updated with the new value. The above config will fail if for some reason the UNIX password is set, but does not match the SAM password; it should succeed if the UNIX password is not yet set, or if it matches the SAM password.

The problem is in making it relatively transparent to the users. When you convert from your SAM to smbpasswd, Samba is going to map the user's unix uid's to different RIDs than they had on NT. This will make things rather un-transparent to users. I did a migration from an NT PDC to samba quite a while ago on my home network. I did manage to make it transparent to the users (all two of us :)), but it was somewhat painful, and involved a _really_ gross hack to make the RIDs turn out the way I wanted. I'm not sure it would work for a large number of users/machines. If you want, I could try to describe the process I went through, but it was over a year ago and I've probably forgotten some of it.

Granted, but since the network in question is behind Cisco firewalls of a very strong nature, and the only people that would want to have access to it are the people I'm trying to give access to in the first place, there is no issue. We're talking about a college network, and, God forbid someone hacks into my system and gets a copy of my course notes :) >Can you consider having the shares on the samba server ? Defeats the purpose: - the printer is plugged into the Win98se box, due to the Win98se box being the actual work box - the shares are on the Win98se box since that's also where the burner is, and no one but a select few know how to use a burner & software under Linux Don't get me wrong, I see your point - more so simply because I also teach security and such - but I need to make this work as is, not change it. To be blunt, I only put the Linux box in between the Win98se box and the NT network because it's easier to share a connection through Linux using 2 NIC's than to try and accomplish this effectively and with full access capabilities through Win98se connection sharing or a secondary proxy/routing software ...

Usually the called NetBIOS name is the name of the server in things like \\server\share. W2K probably only supports two things in the called name field: The NetBIOS name of the server or *SMBSERVER. Samba, OTOH, is happy to accept anything in the called name field, and will use it as the basis of Virtual servers if you set things up correctly.

Why not put the 98 box on the NT network directly? It is no easier to share 98 to the Linux box than it is to share 98 to NT.

How do you overcome the problems with UNIX groups / NT Groups, because I know it's quite essential to be able to use 'global' groups from your (Samba-)Domain to get the TS-Farm (multiple Terminal Servers) really going. 3. Is there anybody else who has experience with NT4-TS, W2KTS (with or without Citrix MF) in combination with SAMBA (v. 2.0.6?, 2.0.7?, 2.2?, TNG?)

The question is: how do I share the Win98 printer through Samba so it's visible - would prefer it being visible from the Win98 machine, but I'll settle for through SAMBA if need be. Not trying to share the burner itself, just hd space reserve for it so people can put their files on my system remotely then come over and burn the CD's.

However, with that value set to "yes", when you rebbot the PDC, it won't come up as a PDC. It may be that the original poster did just that (i.e., reboot the PDC sometime after SAMBA was running on the Linux box. That is certainly a bug since win95/98 domains have nothing to do with NT. In Microsoft's knowledge base you can find the problem described, and of course, they claim the bug is with SAMBA. And of course, since Microsoft is very secretive and is even prone to deliberately mislead, and the SAMBA team has to reverse engineer to figure stuff out, and if Microsoft does protocols like they do everything else, then the protocol handshaking is probably exceedingly sloppy, it may well be that the immediate bug is in SAMBA. -- Rob --On 10/16/00 10:24:09 AM -0700 "James W.

There's a better solution to allowing other people to write CDs than this convoluted method. Look at webCDwriter (http://www.uni-bielefeld.de/~jhaeger/webCDwriter/), which you put on your linux box, and people connect to via a netscape plug-in. It's in pre-release status, but works very well. If you don't get your browsing of the win98 machine right, you can always configure the printer in linux, and then have it loaded auto by samba, from where people will be able to print to the win98 box. My personal preference would actually be to put both the printer and the writer on the linux box. That's what we do here (P75 /w 32 MB ram sharing HP2100, HP DJ 970Cxi printers and an HP8100 writer). This machine has been running in this config for about 2 months, and has been rebooted once (the other admin is too used to windows!)

As far as I understand, the only reason you are using the linux box is to join 2 subnets. Surely, then, the best option would be to run a WINS server, make sure all your machines pn both subnets can see the WINS server, and do use it for lookups. Then you can log into the domain directly. As long as TCP/IP works between the subnets (ie you can ping the WINS server from any machine) WINS should help you with this.

Well, the login works like a charm, I've even managed to map the share on the NT server to run the login script through SAMBA - that was a mind bender. All of my TCP/IP is working fine, and I can browse the network and access shares on other Win9x/NT machines on the network. What ISN'T working is other people trying to see me on the Network Neighborhood and accessing my shared printer and directories on my win98se machine. I'm not visible on the Network Neighborhood, and, the few times I've managed to BECOME visible, no shares show up. Now, form my SAMBA machine, if I run "smbclient -L localhost", I see the entire network AND my Win9x machine. Running "smbclient -L ouellep" [ouellep = my win9x machine], I can see my shares no problems.

It's a hell of a lot easier to share the one 100 Mbit connection to the NT network properly across Linux than it is with Win98se, that's why. I've only got the ONE connection (wall socket) for 3 machines, and can't use a hub - not allowed in any way.

The Windows 2000 clients. ;-) Apparently (we don't use W2K here), Samba will act as a File server quite happily for W2K clients. Samba 2.2.0 alpha also supports domain logons. I know of a number of companies using Samba TNG as the PDC for the same. The only problem with Samba TNG, is that it is now becoming a set of DCE/RPC libs and probably won't be well supported as a standalone server.

Best advice is to trim you smbpasswd file as much as possible and hold on until we get a stable PDC out the door. If you are running NIS, try making the PDC a NIS slave (or copying the passwd map locally). PS: One of the main problems is that code calls getpwnam() for every line in smbpasswd when all you need to validate is the line fo rthe user once you have found it. Maybe search the samba-ntdom archives. Seems like someone may have posted a patch. You can search at http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/ Cheers, jerry Mike Kennedy wrote: > > The problem is that if students in the lab all happen to > try to log in at the same time, the server doesn't seem > to be able to handle it, the load average eclipses 250, > and then I have to restart samba so that the machine > can have any functionality at all. > > I'm running samba-2.1.0... can anyone please help me > to figure out whats wrong here?

Everything was fine, except that our NIS server was now idling at between 5-10%, instead of the prior 0.3-0.5%. Anyway, to cut a long story short, when Samba checks to see if a user is in a group (lib/username.c:user_in_group_list) it iterates through every group (think setgrent, getgrent, endgrent) looking for the group in question. When you have lots of users and 320+ groups, and regularly perform this _linear_ search and wrap each iteration up in RPC calls to NIS you are going to take a CPU hit. The solution to this problem is conveniently located in the old 2.0.5a code! Simply call getgrnam() once - one RPC call and the NIS server can search efficiently (think hashes), and suddenly the loading on ypserv drops fifteen fold. There are no hints in the release notes or source code about this change. I am puzzled as to why the change was made. Any ideas? Perhaps getgrnam() does not work on some platforms? Perhaps the developers might like to reinstate the old code unless they now of a good reason for keeping it. BTW I note that Samba 2.2 alpha 0 has the same user_in_group_list() code as 2.0.7 (ie. not very NIS friendly), with one exception! It is missing the setgrent() before the getgrent()s and endgrent(). This looks like a bug to me. Comments anyone. Hope this helps someone out there.

Have you setup pppd to pass server assigned address. Are you able to open a connection to the server by using the IP ie \\192.168.1.1 I think that you have not set the DNS and WINS address for pppd. It should be in the conf file for the pppd connection. Settings should be something like ... ;Your DNS Server Address ... ms-dns 10.0.0.1 ; Your WINS Server IP Address ms-wins 10.1.1.1 As you can see that my services are on different servers. The WINS server should be your SAMBA server, but you might have another computer acting as WINS server. There is also a setting in DUN settings for TCP to log onto the network ... sometimes that needs to be set so that you can see the SMB servers. I hope this helps.

For this to work, each person needs a unix account on the linux machine, but doesn't needto be able to log in. If you have an NT server running your domain, there's no reason to move it to your linux box. To authenticate for services on the linux box from the PDC, you will need to look into pam, pam_smb (logging in, mail), auth_smb (proxy), or wait for winbind in the upcoming samba 2.2.x.

If you mean a Linux server running Samba for file and print services to Windows clients, then see DOMAIN_MEMBER.txt in the samba distribution. If you mean a Linux desktop using a Windows NT DC for authentication of general services like sshd, etc...then see the winbind paper linked of the main samba web site.

The NT resource kit comes with a thing called timeserv which can be set up to run as a service, and sychronize machine clocks with a number of different "time providers". Not exactly free, but if you already have the resource kit, it's worth a shot. HTH Mike.

Can you ping things on your internal network? 2/ Assuming this is working, then what you're seeing is expected behaviour. Microsoft implemented browsing on a broadcast model in Windows, so it fails as soon as you stick a router in the picture. You need to provide your dial up machine with a functional method of resolving NetBIOS names. Your options are judicious use of lmhosts files, a WINS server, or various other networking tricks.

After this, you will probably have to threaten them with death if they save anywhere else! You could also have the drive mapped. If you are running samba as a PDC, this would normally be done anyway (/home/ mapped to Z:). You need to tell us more than this for us to be able to help you. 1)Is samba working (can you see the machine in network neighborhood)? (if not you have more serious problems) 2)Do you have a domain / PDC already (then you can use a log-in script to map a drive) 3)Is this samba machine your PDC (then you don't have to do 2, as it gets done) 4)DO all the users connecting have an account and home directory (will mean people don't have anywhere to save to).

The home directories are normal filesystems. If you want to mount a remote filesystems over SMB, you'll need to look at smbfs. Otherwise you can just create a local home directory and do a "chown 'DOMAIN\user' $HOME". See the winbind man page for smb.conf details. > 3)From what I have read, winbind replaces pam_smb, but > will it also support / replace auth_smb (for use in a > squid proxy for example).

If anyone wants to use or ask questions about SAMBA_TNG, you should post to the tng lists at http://lists.samba-tng.org/ I'm afraid the Samba team will not be able to offer much help. Also be aware that LDAP support was always experimental and is being reworked in the 2.2 release for general comsumption.

The RFC2307 schema is not really relavent to Windows client. We are planning on using the AD schema. Since you will need to validate a username upon lookup, Samba will need to do a getpwnam(). This of course could be piped to LDAP via nss_ldap. But Samba's LDAP backend will not replace the standard UNIX getpwxxx() calls.

Upon trying to add my Win2K pro machine to the new domain it tells me that my machine name was not found on the domain and to provide an account that has permission to add it. As I know of, this 'adding a machine on-the-fly' is currently not supported in any of the samba developments.

There is a official FAQ at samba.org/samba/docs/FAQ. I'm unaware of how often this FAQ is updated, etc. Now, the idea that came to my mind was that I could actively maintain such a FAQ, without creating another FAQ which just ends up making it all more complex. My idea is to: Create a simple xml file format (similar to the kernel Cousines) which each entry is added with. Each entry contains Question, Answer and a longer desctiption if neccesary, author, e-mail, updated date, rev. no, language and separate sections for samba-urls (url's to other doc. at samba.org pages), and external URL's. So instead of trying to redo Lars' and David Bannon's work on respectively samba TNG and samba 2.0.x it would simply reference it. Secondly, it would be posslible for anyone wishing to do so to translate this information into other languages, in order to make it easier to understand. Please, let me know if I'm stepping someone on their toes with this suggestion, otherwicse please count this as me volunteering for samba, and so that samba-technical@samba.org can once again be more technical related.

I'm particularly addressing Samba 2.2.0, ie not the various development streams. Its being written in yodl so it can be translated to other formats although this is currently under review (or at least I hope it under review). Have a look at http://bioserve.latrobe.edu.au/samba for a draft of both PDC HowTo and FAQ. Comments are very welcome. >Please, let me know if I'm stepping someone on their toes with this suggestion, Not at all, the current one is actually mis-leading because of the changes that are taking place all over that samba concept. I do like the kernel Cousin idea, there is a Samba one but there seems little Samba PDC interest. Hmm....

Jean Francois Micouleau is currently working on it, he has submitted some code but there are a couple of problems at present. He's pretty close so we won't have long to wait with any luck ... Problems are : 1. The script that makes accounts runs as the user you enter, not root. 2. The machine name is wrong, might just be a typo.

Here is my arguement / idea: By using xml, we can have each Q/A in one file, with misc. information even one per q/a per language. This enables us to have small vi-able files, which everyone can edit, and submit. Each entry (q/a) is linked to a section such as "printing", "ntdom", "general" etc. They also have author information (name, email), revision, date changed and language. The rev. gives us the possibility to warn someone that's reading the german language entry that he/she is reading rev. 3 while the english is rev. 4 [per definition every entry (and most updated) is available in english. ] BTW: section-sample in norwegian ("no") enclosed. see the "how-to-submit.xml" file as example of an entry and "sections.xml" as example of the sections / toc. The id allows us to alter sorting / order without changing all entries. The types of url's intended are "outside", for sites like www.linux.com, "samba" for pages within the /samba on all samba mirrors. That is, if the samba team are interrested to make such a FAQ part of their web-pages. and "lists" which should refer to the list-archive. This allows us to point people in the right direction for further information. Suggestions are welcome. also please note that the two .xml files are me playing with the idea, and the final content / structure can be very different, as long as tou all come with your ideas. I was hoping that someone of the samba-team would read this and comment on it. --Anders On Fri, Oct 20, 2000 at 12:30:57PM +1000, David Bannon wrote: >At 04:12 PM 19/10/2000 -0500, Anders C .

The samba server is not a PDC or BDC, doesn't run as a WINS server, and does plain fileserving to about 300 users. The users are on different locations, with about 100 of them connected through various WAN connections (leased lines, 64 - 256 Kbps connections). All off-site locations have a local BDC which they use to authenticate to, and get most of their data from. Occasionally users cannot connect to a specific share during logon (they've got a logon script that connects the share for them). A subsequent connect by hand works (most of the time). I see the following messages in the user's log-file around the time they try to connect: [2000/10/19 08:45:56, 3] lib/util_sock.c:(907) Connecting to 194.26.204.9 at port 139 [2000/10/19 08:45:56, 0] rpc_client/cli_netlogon.c:(159) cli_net_auth2: Error NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED [2000/10/19 08:45:56, 0] rpc_client/cli_login.c:(72) cli_nt_setup_creds: auth2 challenge failed [2000/10/19 08:45:56, 0] smbd/password.c:(1262) connect_to_domain_password_server: unable to setup the PDC credentials to machine 003_C00003.

Do you have several BDCs? Then it's not unusual if it takes 30-40 mins to replicate machine/user-accounts between DCs.

I can't remember how long, but 15 minutes should be a good guess. I know that in the Linux world, this is unacceptable, but that's the way it is. I would not suggest that you try to add and remove a machine name from the database twice in a row. This process has been known to cause a problem with the server database.

I have just obtained the HEAD branch thru CVS on my FreeBSD 4.1 machine. I created a domain with the samba, a machine account, and a user account. Upon trying to add my Win2K pro machine to the new domain it tells me that my machine name was not found on the domain and to provide an account that has permission to add it. As I know of, this 'adding a machine on-the-fly' is currently not supported in any of the samba developments.

What do you mean by between networks? NetBEUI does not support routing. If you can use IP but not name, maybe your nmbd server is broke? G.

NetBEUI is the easiest to dispense with. In a word, NO! The only reason you're able to access them at all is that they are using both NetBEUI and IP for networking. NetBEUI is a non-routable protocol designed for small, localized networks. It is not accessible across a router. At our site, NetBEUI is turned off completely (less junk in the segments) and we use IP exclusively. The Network Neighborhood issue is a browsing issue and not a NetBEUI issue. The Master Browser on a segment finds out what's out there because when a Wundows client machine comes up on line it broadcasts that information and the Master Browser hears the broadcast and records it. The WINS server likewise picks that up. Generic broadcasts, however, don't cross network boundaries (on some routers you can enable the forwarding of directed broadcasts, but that's a very different animal). In order for machines in network "B" to see network "A" in Network Neighborhood (and also for "A" to see "B"), the Master Browsers must share information with each other. We run across five different segments and everybody can pretty much see everybody. -- Rob --On 10/21/00 04:28:35 PM +0000 John Doe wrote: > > > > I am running a Samba 7.0 Server between two networks that use > NetBEUI.

I think it is fair to say that the new code to allow W2K (and NT) to create a machine account from the newly joining client is not quite working yet. I just rechecked out SAMBA_2_2 and did not see any fixes in the relevant areas. Jean Francois Micouleau is aware of the problem and working on it although he is under some pressure elsewhere. I suggest that people wanting to test these functions cool it until JFM (or someone else) announces that the problems have been fixed.

Use the sample one that comes with Samba to see if that will fix the problems. Just add the Workgroup, server string and comment options under the global option and add your shares to it. Restart the server (Kill the pids) and than see what happens. Only other thing that I can think of that my be the cause would be the that the Network card in your win2k box is not a 100Mb card or is not set up for it... let me know if any off this works. -----Original Message----- From: Brian Wilson [mailto:wilson@sentrisystems.com] Sent: Monday, October 23, 2000 11:34 AM To: dan@fullmotions.com Subject: Re: Win2k..... missing words Here's my smb.conf which I've been using for a few years.

Greetings to all the great Samba people out there, great reading all the discussion that start and roll on. I have just downloaded and read the PDF file reguarding winbind on the web page, but it seems not to be what I thought it might be, so I thought I would ask for a little bit of information from the people whom should know and could help. I am in administration of six LANs which are connected by slow WAN links. Each LAN has there own Linux server and user base with Samba running for file and print servering, same servers also used as local e-mail server and other internet basics. All users in my WAN have to access a NT Terminale Server at the center of the WAN. Currently I have had to re-create every user on the NT Terminale Server so that users have access to the NT Terminale Server, this make life a little bit problematic because the user details including passwords are not synced. What ideas do the greate Samba world have. The first I thought of was using openLDAP for all user details including mail routing and so ... then using a Master/Slave setup so that data could replicated to and from the Master openLDAP server, almost creating Domain like system, but after a little research, I don't think this might work ... so that is why I ask the community. Thanks for all help and sugguestion.

Is this correct? If you use "samedit -S . ", i.e. local machine, you don't need to give in any password. Just type enter. But I think the error message above has some other reasons ... Does a "createuser foo -p foo2" work ? What's in the logfiles ? Does the smbpassewd file exists ?

I've missed some of this discussion but can't help chiming in... Bart... it seems as if you're looking for someone to tell you if NT-TS (and Win2K Terminal Services) and Metaframe plays well with Samba PDC. To this I can say a definite yes! For about a year and a half I've had 3 NT4-TS/Metaframe servers that are supported by a Samba PDC with LDAP backend. I'm using old HEAD branch code from back then... there are a few kinks but in general it works very well. [In fact this message is typed in Netscape Communicator running in the TS environment, viewed via the Citrix ICA client running on my FreeBSD workstation. :-)] We're slowly gearing up for a migration to Terminal Services/Metaframe under Win2000 Server. I fully expect that this will work, to the extent Win2000 in general works with a Samba PDC (either Samba-TNG or the lastest HEAD branch stuff). Obviously either option is still very much a work in progress but that is a reality that I've lived with for over 1.5 years now and it hasn't kept me from getting the job done (thanks Samba developers!!). Other tidbits: We're currently supporting about 100 client stations... about half are heavily used. Once we're got Win2K in place we'll be quickly ramping this up to 300 users. ... Our primary server OS is FreeBSD. I'm interested to see some folks making use of NISGINA. It was one of the options that I considered before going with the Samba PDC. Has there been any recent development with NISGINA... such as support for Win2000 ? cno Bart Drijver wrote: > On 18 Oct 00, at 13:15, Sven Siems wrote: > > > Hello Bart, > > Hi Sven and/or Christian, thanks for your reply > > > > my colleque Christian Barth send you an answer, but I didn?t know if > > this is what you expected. > > > it's already more than I expected... > > > If you have further questions about linux/samba problems together with > > TS you should ask christian directly. > > > This mail is coming his way too. > > > What was/is your Problem?

I have set everything on the Windows 98 side (as far as I know). In the Windows 98 Network configuration I have "Workgroup" set in the Access Control tab. Now when I right click on a resource to share it (such as drive C:), then click on Add, I get a popup "Add users" window with two items. The Icon (which apears it's for a group) with the word "The World" as a user or group, and what appears to be an icon for a user with no words beside it. The text beside the Name field says, "Obtain List From", but it doesn't say from where. I don't get a list of users. Thanks in advance for anyone who can advise me of how to get a list of users in the Windows 98 popup. I'm using Samba 2.2.0.alpha0. -- L.

I've actually been trying to fix this problem remotely. I'll be able to check for flaky NIC cards and hubs on Friday. Latest results: After logging everyone off and doing a samba restart... One user logged in without any problems, logged out, logged in again without any problems, logged out and logged in one more time without any problems just to be sure. The other three users had to retry two-three times to get in. We double-checked our Win 95 network settings. They match. Is there any way this could be caused by too much traffic? We used to have 11 computers on the network and had to cascade two hubs. When we took 5 computers off of our network I left the hubs cascaded instead of filling one 6-port hub. Could that be a problem? The user who logged in without any problems tried it one more time and had an error. And one of the users who had problems previously tried again and got in without a hitch. The users are staging a mutiny due to the number of restarts so we'll have to continue testing tomorrow. We just added all the user entries to lmhosts (previously it just had the loopback and server ip). Will that help?

Does mean I don't have to join the > domain every time I reinstall samba ??? When your net manager created an account initially, the password for this machine account was known to Samba. When you joined the domain, this machine password was changed, and the new password and machine SID etc were stored on your system by Samba. The domain controller negotiates regular changes to the machine password with Samba on your machine. Now you've reinstalled RedHat, and tried to join the domain again. It failed, as this time, the machine account password was not known to Samba, as it's not a newly created account. The domain controller won't authenticate you, so everything else you do will now fail. To fix this, get the network manager to go into Server Manager on the Domain Controller, and delete your machine account, then recreate it. This will reset the machine password back to a known state. Then, join the domain again from your machine. All the other problems are related to you're being non-authenticated, so it should fix them as well. HTH, Mike.

I actually have about 150 users connecting to AIX servers using telnet sessions. All Workstations are set to use NT DHCP server and the only trace I have in the connection history are IP Addresses. 1) Is it possible using Samba to make AIX resolving IP addresses to hostnames ? I mean instead to have an IP address in the logs or an IP address when you run the who command, to have the correct hostname. 2) Is it possible using Samba to make AIX resolving hostnames to IP Addresses, when you run a ping command for example. If today I try to ping a workstation using is hostname, if I don't create a enrty in the AIX host file, the system will reply : ping - host name NOT FOUND. Christophe MAILHE.

Sincere apologies, I meant to say: "It [2.0.7] will happily serve Win2k clients but NOT within the domain" Samba TNG however DOES allow Win2k clients to log in to the domain. It's alpha code though, blah, blah, disclaimer, disclaimer.

TNG handles things very differently (in terms of the administrators experience anyway). You use samedit to manage user accounts, add machines to the domain etc. Samedit has a man8 page.

You can get the TNG version from samba-tng.org, and then can use samedit to 'enumuser' and 'enumgroup' to get the list. Check out . One can also use winbindd to automatically grab all the users and groups from the domain controller. These users would then be like normal Unix users. In another version (can't remeber), rpcclient could be used to enumerate the users and groups.

Sorry if I seemed to have said the wrong thing John. I did look at the KC site some weeks ago (and was sufficently impressed to add a link to it from my web site) but at the time it did not mention any PDC material. From memory there was only 3 or 4 threads mentioned at the time. I just looked now and there are 6 threads. Like I said, its a great idea and all praise to anyone who 'grabs a thread' but you have to agree the samba mailing lists have covered a lot more than six productive threads in the last couple of months. I would like to urge all subscribers to have a look at the concept and maybe support it. I used to belong to a DecUnix Admin list where anyone who posted a question was expected to summarise the answers and post the summary in a particular format.

Well, it really closer than that. 2.2 in its current pre-release version will accept W2K logons to the domain with a little bit of fiddling (less fiddling than we had to do in the past for NT).

Does the SID get copied with the users username and password. If not to other nt servers the user is considered a different user. I'm trying to move 3 NT domains to one Samba domain but I need to keep the sid so that all the users will be the same as their NT counter parts. One way I was going to try getting the sid is to make samba a BDC for each domain and save the sam on the samba server. Since I just compile and stalled TNG today I don't even know if the samba sam is in a human readable format. If it is I plan on keeping a copy of each domain I become a BDC of then I can add all three together to make one domain. Will this work?? Thank you for the post I can't wait to try it tomorrow.

Certainly in 2.2 pre-release and therefore possibly in 2.0.7 there is a bug in this part of the code where samba calls the add user script as the user who is connecting as domain admin, not as root. As this user will almost certainly not have write permission to passwd files etc it fails. Test by either adding root to the admin list and tring to do it as root or maybe have your script create a file somewhere (/tmp ?) where everyone can write and see who ownes the resulting file. ie #!/bin/sh echo $1 > /tmp/add_user.stuff david ------------------------------------------------------------ David Bannon D.Bannon@latrobe.edu.au School of Biochemistry Phone 61 03 9479 2197 La Trobe University, Plenty Rd, Fax 61 03 9479 2467 Bundoora, Vic, Australia, 3083 http://bioserve.latrobe.edu.au ------------------------------------------------------------ .....

The same way you get any unix machine to use DHCP. Install and configure a DHCP client on the machine. Samba has nothing to do with IP configuration of your Unix box at all. If you use DHCP, you will want to use a WINS server as well.

Do you mean that you want your samba 2.0.7 server to have its IP address assigned by a DHCP server? That would be handled by something like 'pump'. This linux box at home uses dhcp via SDSL either on boot, or by running pump. Then samba simply uses whatever IP the machine is using. Then my missus, or the kids can store their stuff on it just by browsing for the server. I can't imagine this would work for a domain based scenario though; I don't know the extreme details about SIDs, but I'm wondering if they'd be neutered by the IP address change. Can anyone confirm/deny my SID rambling?

I don't thinks that that is possible by default. From my experiences with DSL (sharing a connection via NAT) broadcast packets don't get routed. I had a scenario where my private network IP addresses were being provided via DHCP, but also the DSL side of the network was too (by the telco on the other end). Linux and Windows broadcasts were denied across the two subnets. If they allowed them then there'd be a dhcp nightmare. But, saying that, a more detailed description of what you are trying to achieve would be useful.

It works in HEAD, and the newly released alpha 2.2 has working support for it also. You could change your config. IP alias two IP addresses to your network card. Bind TNG to on IP address, and use it for domain control. Install a stable Samba, and bind it to the other IP Address, set security=DOMAIN, join it to your domain, and then serve your printers from that. It's a pain to set up, but you get the best domain control functionality and file/print from such a set up.

NetBios is the protocol layer that work over the others (NetBEUI, TCP/IP, IPX) Now, NetBEUI is not routable, but NetBios binded to TCP/IP will be routed all over. And more, if you have a samba server you should also use primarily TCP/IP because samba is not able to follow elections on other protocols (also Windows client have problems if some have a protocol and others not) and this may cause problems to see correct computer list in Network Neighbourhood. -- Simo Sorce - Integrazione Sistemi Unix/Windows - Politecnico di Milano E-mail: simo.sorce@polimi.it Tel.int: 02 2399 2425 - Fax.int. 02 2399 2451 ----------------------------------------------------------------- Be happy, use Linux!

The samba machine is member of the domain tflxxx and should authenticate users again the domain and not against the local users. The samba machine should expose the directory /data_share to a NT user group called ggsamba (which is defined as global group on the NT PDC). The username map attribute of the global section contains a mapping file, which I understoud, should map unix accounts against NT accounts. In my case the unix group unixgroup to ggsamba. In my case the authentication fails somehow. Does someone has a clue how to solve the problem or where I missed something? As far as I understodd the mapping should surround the need to setup the users twice?

It may either be stored locally, or on the server. If it is stored on the server, it is called a roaming profile. i.e. the user can log onto any machine in the network and get his/her specific desktop. This is just an area that specifies how the user profiles are stored. It will store all desktop items, internet temporary files, etc. The Homes section just specifies how the users home directory structure is setup. You might create a directory called /home and then underneath that directory you will have a subdirectory for each user. This could be an area for users to put their own files out on the network. I don't believe that you absolutely have to have this section in smb.conf unless you want the server to hold user files of any type they may put there. Samba gurus please correct me on this if I am wrong :) By drive parameter I think you mean the logon drive = parameter? Is this correct? If so, this specifies to a Windows NT machine what the location of the logon drive is and what drive letter to map it to. (I hope I don't have this backwards here - check man smb.conf to be sure) I don't think this parameter is used by win9x machines.

(I apologize in advance if this problem has been covered before) Well, I'm using Samba 2.0.6 (the RH6.2 package), and I'm having some quirky problems running an NT domain. On first boot every morning, 3 of the NT workstations fail to find the Linux box when someone initially logs in, giving errors like "Unable to find a PDC, I will use your local profile", etc. Logout, log back in, and they find the samba box and download their roaming profiles properly. The rather unhelpful error message in the NT workstation's event viewer is: No Windows NT Domain Controller is available for the domain XXXXX. ... The following error occurred: The RPC server is unavailable. Data: 0000: 17 00 02 c0 On the samba-side I get errors like this: [2000/10/27 08:30:06, 0] lib/util_sock.c:write_socket_data(537) write_socket_data: write failure.

This feature is necessary and I'm surprised it isn't there now. I know I'll have to write the patch if I want it. But I wonder how to go about it. See, I know lib/util.c:standard_sub_basic() (or standard_sub()?) is the place to add the new token expansion code, and I've figured out that the domain can be found in smbd/reply.c:reply_sesssetup_and_X(), but it isn't saved anywhere. Unlike the other connection calls in smbd/reply.c, reply_sesssetup_and_X() does not actually call make_connection() so I can't very easily add a new field to connection_struct and new argument to make_connection(). It seems that reply_sesssetup_and_X() saves necessary information in global variables, so I may just have to do that for the domain name. So, is it OK for me to add a new global variable for keeping the remote user's domain name? Why does reply_sesssetup_and_X() not call make_connection() as reply_tcon_and_X() and reply_tcon() do? I'm not interested in producing a large patch to fix this state of affairs, just a small one :^| Nico -- From ivy at icebergmedia.com Fri Oct 27 18:57:38 2000 From: ivy at icebergmedia.com (Ivy) Date: Tue Dec 2 02:32:07 2003 Subject: PDC In-Reply-To: <39F873BC.89530922@uchicago.edu> Message-ID: I read the page you mentioned below, and followed its steps. #samedit - S . -U root (enter passwd) [root.]$createuser user1 MYDOMIAN [-p passwd] I got positive answer, and when I check /usr/local/samba/private/smbpasswd, I saw a new line about user1.

We have been using Samba in a workgroup setting to allow NT users access to their UNIX directories and printers. It has been working great so far. The Win 2K Adv. Server is the only server that can not access the Samba servers in the workgroup. It accesses everything fine in the domain but not the workgroup where the samba servers reside. One of the samba servers is the master browser for the workgroup. We are running 2 different versions of samba. One is 1.9.18 and the other is 2.0.6. Any thoughts on why? Could it be because of the two different versions? I did bring up a Samba 2.0.7 server using a different workgroup and again the Win 2K advanced server could not even browse the workgroup. It does browse other NT domains and Windows controlled workgroups. My Win 2K Pro workstation was able to access all of our samba servers no matter what version of samba they are running.

Message-ID: <39FAA165.46A03F6B@home.com> Hi, friends Im running SAMBA_2_2 (updated Oct 28 4:00am EST ;-) Im having trouble getting a Windows 98 computer to use roaming profiles.. I understood that this was supported? This computer is configured to login to the SAMBA PDC and also for roaming profiles by setting the option to use profiles in Control Panel->Passwords->Profiles. I have the Windows 98 computer successfully logging into the SAMBA PDC, meaning: - it connects, and runs its login script (you see the DOS window) - it gets its [homes] drive mapped from said script At this point the Windows 98 computer knows its supposed to start copying its default profile from the local disk in the case of a new user, or copy the already local profile in the case of the already known user, to the server based location for it.. ie., i have ---- logon home = \\thisserver\profiles\%U [profiles] path=/home/profiles in my smb.conf, as well as other stuff which is all working properly including printing, etc.. Actually I haven't fully tested the printer driver uploads because I don't have an NT client to experiment with atm. But I digress.. So at this point, my Windows 98 computer finishes running its login script, the DOS window for it closes, and then the "Copying Files" dialog, or something to that effect, pops up. It clearly shows the clients profile files and sub directories (Cookies, user.dat, Desktop, Start Menu, etc, etc..) being copied to the server location: \\theserver\profiles\%U\[ insert current copy operation here ] A quick check of /home/profiles indeed shows that a nice %U sub directory now lives there! Oh, and its also owned by theuser.hisgroup so it would seem that the client created it with the proper permissions. For testing sake my /home/profiles was chmod 777. I tried using logon home = \\thisserver\profiles, and indeed you get the client profile sub directory rooted in /home/profiles. (ie. /home/profiles/user.dat, /home/profiles/Cookies, etc..). I tried using logon home = \\thisserver\profiles\%U, and this time pre made a /home/profiles/theuser directory, with the appropriate users permissions, and again the client computers profile sub directory structure gets copied successfully to the server, but erroneously rooted in /home/profiles/%U, literally! (whew, :-)) I hope this report is useful to those in the know here, and I haven't stated the obvious. It seems the %U isn't getting expanded, yes? Oh, and before I go, let me extend a very grateful thank you, to the SAMBA team and all the people who make this software so wonderful for the rest of us.

The reasons were all sorted out last Feb (2000) or there abouts. Please have a look at one of the document files, or go back over the archive or have a look at Special Edition, Using Samba. Basically, Win9X logons use a LanManager call to pick up information that is used to locate where the profiles are, and this call does not have a separate homes share and profiles share.

I have a freshly updated checkout of SAMBA_2_2 and am certain, that the 'logon home' smb.conf param is broken. The solution presented in the smb.conf distributed with SAMBA_2_2 does not work. It suggests to use: logon home = \\%L\%U\profile -> but this doesnt work. neither does this: logon home = \\%L\%U furthermore, not even this works: logon home = \\mynbname\%U In all of the above cases, an attempt by the Win9X client to do a: net use * /HOME results in an error 67 - the share name cannot be found. *BUT* if I use this: logon home = \\mynbname\profiles then the Win9X client can do a: net use * /HOME and this gets him a mapping to my [profiles] share, which is clearly not useful. This is because the Win9X computer creates the roaming profile for the user in /home/profiles.

And the icing on the cake is that again, as correctly referenced in the smb.conf, the Win9X client will use the \\server\share\%U part for the profile storage location, unfortunately the whole BUG to this story is that now you get the profile stored at another bogus spot.

I don't think this is posible with samba itself. You can get around this by using Samba as a WINS server for your private network and enable the WINS-to-broadcast proxy. Works for me. If you must have the broadcasts relayed, you could setup a port forwarder with an address something like xxx.xxx.xxx.255:12345 to xxx.xxx.xxx.255:12345. Can anyone tell me what port is used for SMB discovery broadcasts ? Obviously 12345 needs to be replaced with the appropriate SMB port number. I think you can do this using IPChains. If you don't mind extra traffic, you could forward everything (ie all ports). > > I don't thinks that that is possible by default.

I also know that Cisco routers can be configured so that they will forward broadcasts between subnets if need be.

Try setting up Samba on the Red Hat RAS server to proxy Broadcasts then setup pppd so that the ms-wins directive hands over the IP of the Red Hat RAS server. That should let it see all the other machines. If pinging works then you should be ready to go.

You mean the MultipleUsersOnConnection, DWORD 0? If you really want to use samba and the abovementioned reg-fix does not help you can try to set "nt smb support = no". You will not get any ACL support and so fort, but the shares will work fine. As the manual says: "This boolean parameter controls whether smbd will negotiate NT specific SMB support with Windows NT clients. Although this is a developer debugging option and should be left alone, benchmarking has discovered that Windows NT clients give faster performance with this option set to "no". This is still being investigated. If this option is set to "no" then Samba offers exactly the same SMB calls that versions prior to Samba2.0 offered. This information may be of use if any users are having problems with NT SMB support. Default: nt smb support = yes" It says: "exactly the same SMB calls that versions prior to Samba2.0 offered".

Best Regards. > > Blas Castro > Netgiro Spain > blas.castro@netgiro.com It's not difficult. You need: 2 IP address 2 Samba installations with different base path First you need 2 IP address, you my make an alias on your single Network Interface Card or have 2 separated NIC. get samba sources from sdamba.org, compile and install in 2 different trees, eg: ./configure --with-prefix=/usr/local/samba1 make make install make distclean ./configure --with-prefix=/usr/local/samba2 make make install Then make any configuration on the two smb.conf (/usr/local/samba1/lib/smb.conf and /usr/local/samba2/lib/smb.conf) In smb.conf set these parameters: bind interface only = True interfaces = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx for every smb.conf set one of the IP you have on your machine instead of xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx so if you have 2 IP 192.168.2.1 and 192.168.2.2 you may bind SAMBA1 and SAMBA2 to these IP respectively! hope this is all you need! Obviously more IP/more installation tree means more samba servers! -- Simo Sorce - Integrazione Sistemi Unix/Windows - Politecnico di Milano E-mail: simo.sorce@polimi.it Tel.int: 02 2399 2425 - Fax.int. 02 2399 2451 ----------------------------------------------------------------- Be happy, use Linux!

OK, I have found the problem. standard_sub_basic in lib/substitute.c does not substitute %U, which gets left in the string that is sent to the client.

Still just one samba-process for the terminalserver. First I have to correct myself. Its MultipleUsersOnConnection, DWORD 0x1. Okay, firstly you will have to use the MultipleUsersOnConnection, DWORD 0x1 fix. You will now have one connection for each user. Without it you would have one connection from the Terminal Server which all the user were connected. With enough user connected you would reach a max-limit for this connection and get wierd error messages. You will see in "swat" or "ps -ef | grep smb" that you now have one connection pr. user where you previously had one connection pr. client (Terminal Server). If you still have problems even though the number of connection problem is solved I would reccomend the "nt smb support = no" solution. There is a registry fix file with the samba distribution: ///docs/WindowsTerminalServer.reg You might find additional fixes in this location. Hope this helps alittle. I would like to hear if you are able to fix this problem.

You then uses ./smbd -n -s /usr/local/samba/lib/smb1.conf ./smbd -n -s /usr/local/samba/lib/smb2.conf and start them with one conf-file each.

I use this to have a HACMP configuration of my samba servers in a AIX cluster. I have the config files on a shared area and if one of the samba-servers dies for any reason, the other server just starts a new smbd and nmbd process for that instance.

This works, but having two different installation Paths isn't necessary. You only need two different config files. Telling smbd and nmbd which to use at startup: /usr/sbin/nmbd -s /etc/smb1.conf /usr/sbin/nmbd -s /etc/smb2.conf /usr/sbin/smbd -s /etc/smb1.conf /usr/sbin/smbd -s /etc/smb2.conf If the second nmbd or smbd doesnt start have a look at '/var/lock/samba'. Maybe you'll find something like nmbd.pid there. Copy it to nmbd1.pid, then start the second nmbd. Same applies for smbd. It's a bit a pitty: there is no configuration option to put these file somewhere else then '/var/lock/samba' thus you have to do it your own. Setting the debug level to 3 helps finding any errors.

Ummm, actually, according to MS's KB article Q190162, the required value is 0x0... and this matches my experience as well. This registry modification saved my butt with NT-TSE. (link: http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/q190/1/62.asp) ** The question at hand, though, is whether this registry modification has any affect with Windows2000 Server (under which we now wish to run Terminal Services). Ulf Norton has reported that the Q190162 registry fix does not seem to help... ie. after the fix is applied (and the system rebooted, I presuming) all smb traffic for all users logging in via Terminal Services for a given Win2K server gets handled on the *nix box by a single smbd daemon. I haven't had time to verify this myself but I am very nervous about it... this issue a complete showstopper for anyone trying to do Win2K Terminal Services with a Samba backend!

In the distribution- fix it claims: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE?SYSTEM?CurrentControlSet?Services?Rdr?Parameters] "MultipleUsersOnConnection"=dword:00000001 Which is wrong as you say.. > ** The question at hand, though, is whether this registry modification has any affect with > Windows2000 Server (under which we now wish to run Terminal Services). > Ulf Norton has reported that > the Q190162 registry fix does not seem to help... ie. after the fix is applied (and the system Okay, my mistake. I suspected that he ment the registry fix did not work, but I had to put it in to make sure he had tried it. My additional suggestion was the "nt smb support = no". W2K might have changed the required registry key to modify or maybe removed the feature? Ill see what I can find in the W2K related newsgroups/lists. How about looking into the 2048 open file limitation? Would it be possible to increase this value on a W2K server? This might required some changes in the max-values in the smb.conf file and also the unix/linux system parameters.

Option 2 is only valid if you have set every node to operate in "P" mode. This is not the default. An "M" node will broadcast before it tries the NBNS and an "H" node still does broadcast registration & refresh. There's also the broadcasting of the Browser service to consider. In other words, if you have a large single-segment LAN you have other problems, so you gain something from having an NBNS but not nearly enough. If you have the NBNS running, then set it up as a DMB as well (Samba can do this) and segment your LAN. That's where you will gain the most. Chris -)----- -- Christopher R.

Another possibly help is to use an lpr that supports using a symlink to the original file. This way you only deal with one copy instead of two. There are a few gotchas but maybe something to explore.

You need: 2 IP address 2 Samba installations with different base path First you need 2 IP address, you my make an alias on your single Network Interface Card or have 2 separated NIC. get samba sources from sdamba.org, compile and install in 2 different trees, eg: ./configure --with-prefix=/usr/local/samba1 make make install make distclean ./configure --with-prefix=/usr/local/samba2 make make install Then make any configuration on the two smb.conf (/usr/local/samba1/lib/smb.conf and /usr/local/samba2/lib/smb.conf) In smb.conf set these parameters: bind interface only = True interfaces = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx for every smb.conf set one of the IP you have on your machine instead of xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx so if you have 2 IP 192.168.2.1 and 192.168.2.2 you may bind SAMBA1 and SAMBA2 to these IP respectively! hope this is all you need!

My impression of this (I believe from a ntdom list discussion from last year) is that the 2048 limit (on open files per SMB connection) is a result of Microsoft's non-standard implementation of the SMB protocol... it was said that they've borrowed for other purposes some bits that are supposed to be used to track filehandles. If this is the case then I doubt that it is tunable on the Windows side. My recollection on this is hazy... What I do remember, though, is that the root of problem was definitely with Microsoft, not Samba. Samba itself (and I believe I got this frim Luke Leighton himself) will scale to something like 65,535 open files per SMB connection (ie. the file identifier is a 16-bit field). I'm curious as to how or if this limit comes into play in all-Microsoft implementations. Thanks for digging into this!

I studied your response and samba in more depth and found that I was not using TNG after all. Samba-2.2.0.alpha0 is not TNG. I went back to samba.org and grabbed samba-tng-alpha.2.6 and find this to be significantly different. Unfortunately I can't get this to work at all. I'm checking all the dialogue of the error messages I get from the various news groups and finding the my current errors are very common. I notice that smbpasswd isn't distributed with version 2.6. I'm currently studying to see how to use the samedit, which I believe replaces the smbpasswd program. At present I can't log into the domain because my passwords aren't authenticated. To quickly toggle between the two versions, I have both opened in /usr/local/ and when I'm trying to work with getting 2.6 to work I use link samba to samba-tng-alpha.2.6. Everything works using the sam smb.conf file that fails under samba-2.2.0.alpha0. I'm having so many problems with the 2.6, that I'm not ready to ask the best educated question, except maybe, does anyone have a very quick recipe that might get samba up, with it's most minimum configuration, to actually work. 2.2.0.alpha0 fails to provide a user list for Win98. However, I don't have any problems with any other part of it. TNG-2.6 doesn't work for the Win98 shares or the samba share for me. Thanks again for any suggestions or comments. -- L.

However, I'm not sure why winipcfg would be returning the user name instead of the machine name. He could be confused because in my office these are the same.

(gurus please correct me here). It seems as if you can get along fine by having the Win9x machines in the same workgroup. Samba still authenticates each user before they are allowed to view a share.

My linux box is a member of the PDC with DHCP ip address. I ran samba in the hope that usernames in my linuxbox can use the same password as the PDC password list on the password server(pdc). when samba ran it had become the pdc automatically . All i added was the password server address to the pdc intranet ip in smb.conf and ran a smbpasswd on my local users. My question is why did'nt the PDC on NT Server let my linux box take over as PDC especially when i didnt supply any network-admin username/password in my smb.conf Any Help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in Advance. Mallik -- Only two things are infinite. The universe and human stupidity. Although, I am unsure of the former.

Use the FreeBSD Utility 'vipw' to edit the passwords via a text editor, this will update the changes in the database when you exit giving you the ability to add a $ to a username. --Patrick From D.Bannon at latrobe.edu.au Tue Oct 31 23:10:46 2000 From: D.Bannon at latrobe.edu.au (David Bannon) Date: Tue Dec 2 02:32:11 2003 Subject: problems with smbpasswd -j In-Reply-To: <001701c0433d$13f4f2e0$0600a8c0@dworm00000001.internethelp. ru> Message-ID: <3.0.6.32.20001101101046.008b2780@bioserve.latrobe.edu.au> At 04:18 PM 31/10/2000 +0300, Nickolay Kritsky wrote: >Please help me!

Also logging on the server from w95, everything is ok. When running a novell-client (ipx-protocoll, novell 4.11) on the NTws then I get a blue screen with an error at logon.exe after logging on the domain. I've tried the newest novell client, but no solution. Sometimes I get a blue screen, sometimes I don't. I've tried NTws client service for netware, the result is that I get now no blue sreen, but is this the only way ?? (with NTws client service for netware I don't get all the rights for the NDS !!) Another question: It is right, that I'll get problems with logging on the samba server from NTws AND w95 according to the profiles?? Somebody told me to share these environment for working with the samba-domain ?? And he told me, the best way is to use only NTws and not a mix client environment?? Roland r.weid@rea-ingenieure.de
