Solaris users: any way to join a samba domain?

Hi there.

I installed OpenSolaris 10 on a test machine, and I'm trying to make
it join my samba domain.

Unfortunately, the only references I can find about joining a domain
on Solaris are related to joining an AD domain.

I just want to join a samba domain (Windows NT/2000 style)

smbadm -u name DOMAIN
always fail with:
failed to find any domain controllers for DOMAIN

I wanted to experiment with the CIFS kernel ...

Thanks in advance
Jean-Yves

Trust Relation between win2k3 and samba 3.3.x Printers doubts?

Hi people.

Well I have finally migrate my NT4 db to samba 3.3.x running on Centos 5.5.

My doubt is this, I have 2 domains, 1 running NT4 2nd win2k3 AD, I
have a trust relation between NT4 and win2k3, the printers are on my
2k3 server, samba replace my NT4 domain.

Before if someone from NT4 need it to use a printer they need to
access and connect the printer they need from win2k3. I didn't had(if
I remember) to setup any rights in the printer sharing settings to be
available for the users that are part of the NT4 domain.

Now, I was testing this with samba3.3, what I see is that, if someone
from the samba domain need to use the printers from the win2k3 domain,
I need to add the user to the "Permissions" and "security" settings,
other way they cannot use those printers.

This is the normal behaviour or there is something I didn't  setup right?

Thanks all for your time happy new year!!!

Samba4 with freeradius


Hi,

I have been attempting to get freeradius to play nice with samba4. It seems however, that freeradius to
utilise mschap expects the ntlm_auth command to support "--request-nt-key" as an option, yet the
ntlm_auth in samba4 does not contain this flag. What do i use instead, or is this support that will be added
in the future.

Sincerely.

Accessing files via symlink, does client see a difference?

I have an ancient device, several actually, called an Audiotron that I 
use Samba for to access media files.

Now, I realize these are old and finicky devices.

For ease of management, I keep my media files separated into 4.5GB 
directories (easy to burn to DVD) and then
I have a script that goes into each of those directories and creates one 
big directory full of symlinks pointing into each individual directory.

I'm sure my configuration is correct (follow symlinks = yes, wide links 
= yes in my services) as modern programs such as WinAmp and VLC have no 
problems accessing the directory full of symlinks (about 2500 links).

However, the Audiotron has issues.  If I try and play a file, sometimes 
it play, sometimes it won't.  If I try and play it again immediately, 
sometimes it will go, sometimes I'll have to select play several times 
before it'll play.

If I create individual services for each of my media directories and 
have the Audiotron catalog them individually, they all work fine.

So, my question is, does the client see any difference in accessing a 
file via SAMBA (3.5.6) if it's a symlink vs a real file?  I wouldn't 
think it would be able to, but the Audiotron certainly doesn't like them 
very well, yet Winamp has no issues.

Thanks for any thoughts.

You'd better not use the ntlm_auth of samba4 but more the one of samba3 
that is to say either you manage to install both on a server or you put 
your freeradius on another server.

Need some other info?

I've seen in the Internet many times asked this question so it seems a
recurring problem but with generic answers (check all your conf
data/permission/so on...) or no answer at all...

Maybe it is a generic-catch-all error message a la Windows so it could

Yes, I know, you are right but...

...but that question I mailed is because I want to understand what is
going on. I do not want just to turn around the problem.

I want to understand...I was asking if someone has encountered a similar
problem just to have a hint on where start fiddling to understand & fix
the problem.

Sorry for the noise...(returning to study some Samba+LDAP howtos...)

Yep, that seems to be my plan for the moment. What are the plans for this in the future to make it work?

No you are fine. You should probably post a few details of your setup.
samba version, windows version, samba config. More context from the
samba log you posted. Possibly an expert can help with this. I myself
probably can not help much on this one.
