Hi,
I am using Ubuntu 8.04 Server 64-bit Edition and i have installed
samba as a PDC. Samba version is 3.0.28a and all the required OS
updates are installed.
smb.conf
[global]
workgroup = abc
server string = Samba for abc
log level = 1
interfaces = eth0
bind interfaces only = True
log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
max log size = 1000
domain logons = yes
os level = 65
prefered master = yes
domain master = yes
local master = yes
add machine script = /usr/sbin/useradd -s /bin/false -d /home/nobody %u
dns proxy =No
hosts allow = 127. 10.10.10.
wins support = Yes
passdb backend = tdbsam
encrypt passwords = true
;smb passwd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd
security = user
netbios name = human
;username map = /etc/samba/smbusers
[homes]
comment = Home Dir
read only = NO
browseable = NO
valid users = %S
path = %H
directory mask = 0700
create mask = 0700
[share]
comment = Common Share
path = /export
create mask = 0765
read only = NO
I am not able to list the domain users using wbinfo command.
avi at human:~$ wbinfo -u
Error looking up domain users
avi at human:~$ wbinfo -g
Error looking up domain groups
avi at human:~$ wbinfo --ping
Ping to winbindd succeeded on fd 3
How do i make this work? Winbindd was installed when i installed samba
using the apt-get command and its running? Samba is working without
any problems, even if i stop winbindd process, samba works. What
exactly is the use of winbind and when do we use it?
Many Thanks
Avinash
