[SAMBA] Winbind - working for telnet but not the browser

[m.o.tigchelaar at kpn.com]

Hi there Sue,

I see you are using valid users = "@CIVIC\IT". I think your problem is right
there ! As you know, the "\" character has a special meaning on various
systems... Maybe you should start using the "+" character instead of "\" as
the "winbind separator". It works for me...

Good luck!

Martijn.

I've been through the documentation step by step, I can see the shares
through the browser but can't get into them so it's only the authentication
that's not working.  The fact that the problem is limited to the browser
makes me wonder if it's something small, perhaps one of the files in
/etc/pam.d  or the smb.conf (valid users = @CIVIC\IT).  If someone has set
up winbind sucessfully, how do I use a group from the NT pdc in smb.conf

Thanks

Sue

Hi,

You should start looking in the "samba appliance" documentation that comes
with Samba. It somewhere states howto fix Winbindd into the PAM system. My
guess is you forgot something there...


God luck.

Sincerely,

Martijn Tigchelaar.

Hi

I'm setting up a server here with RH7.1 and Samba 2.2.  I've set it up to
use winbind which works for telnet beautifully.  Unfortunately I can't get
it to authenticate users trying to reach their shares on the box.  I'm
certain I've done something dim and missed a point somewhere. Can anyone
suggest where I should start looking.

Many Thanks

Sue Davies
