Server :: Samba And OpenLDAP Does Not Change UserPassword?
May 6, 2010
I have OpenLDAP 2.4.12 and Samba 3.5.1 installed. When I try to change the password with smbpasswd, it changes the Windows password fine. But userPassword is not updated in LDAP. The error message is: "smbldap_check_root_dse: Expected one rootDSE, got 0" when I run smbpasswd -D 10 <username>.
I added the following to slapd.conf:
access to dn.base=""
by * read
password-hash {md5}
in hopes of allowing samba to read the root DSE, even though Samba is configured with the root DN.
how to make samba find what it needs in the root DSE of my LDAP server?
I finished setup Samba PDC with Openldap backend. I can joint Winxp client to domain but can not change pass by press Ctrl + Alt + Delete and choose Change password button
This is my conf. I used samba3x-3.3.8 openldap 2.3.43 slapd.access.conf
Code: access to attrs=userPassword,shadowLastChange,sambaNTPassword,sambaLMPassword by dn="cn=Manager,dc=microhdesk,dc=net" write by anonymous auth by self write by * none
i have configured samba as file server in fedora 11,it works fine for both windows and linux machines .but i want to configure ldap and samba as domain controller. Googled a lot on internet every thing is confusing me .
I am trying to setup my opensue 11.3 server as a pdc using openldap and samba I am continuously getting a network path not found error message on my windows xp box. I already verified that the network settings are good.
# smb.conf is the main Samba configuration file. You find a full commented # version at /usr/share/doc/packages/samba/examples/smb.conf.SUSE if the # samba-doc package is installed. # Date: 2010-07-05 [global]
Trying to setup a Kerberos + OpenLDAP server to manage users for our Samba shares (was going to use just OpenLDAP, but apparently it is less secure than using Kerberos with it). (Distro: CentOS 5.5) Haven't even gotten to the point of connecting either to Samba yet. I have set up a Kerberos server, and configured it as necessary. I am happy that it is working as intended, as I can login and manage principals from both the local terminal and remotely on other clients.
I have setup a server (sv1.myhost.net), and configured it to talk to Kerberos (auth.myhost.net). I have created both a [URL] principal, and a testuser principal. I have set the password on the testuser but not on the host/sv1.myhost.net. I have added the keys for both users to the keytab file on the sv1.myhost.net. I am at a Windows 7 machine (on the same internal network), and have installed the Network Identity Manager. It is able to request a ticket successfully for the testuser account.
When I use putty w/GSSAPI (0.58) to remote login to the system, it says using 'testuser' and then just hangs there. Eventually putty connection times out. The fact that both machines can connect to the auth server to communicate with kerberos correctly suggests firewalls are correct. The relevant entries in sshd_config have been uncommented to tell srv1 to use Kerberos authentication.
I have to rename a group of machines in my little samba domain (tbd backend) but there is an ugly bug that makes this impossible. have set 'rename user script' variable corectly, also checked all configurations.When i change computer name in my windows box, it shows an error saying something like "Error calling remote procedure"Looking on server side, username for the machine gets correctly changed in /usr/passwd, and also in samba database.But samba log says:
=============================================================== [2009/10/08 11:10:32, 0] lib/fault.c:fault_report(42) INTERNAL ERROR: Signal 11 in pid 11052 (3.0.33-3.7.el5_3.1)
I have setuped OpenLDAP+Samba PDC. When I create user and group -> Errors. smbldap-group -a admin No such object at /usr/sbin/smbldap_tools.pm line 457 smbldap-useradd -am -g admin admin Could not find base dn, to get next uidNumber at /usr/sbin/smbldap_tools.pm line 1192
A time ago I've been trying to implement a PDC linux server with Samba and Openldap for centralized authentication for windows and linux clients, but I can NOT get it. So I read somewhere that there is another option called Directory Server and maybe that is possible to do. According to your experience do you recommend any 'how to' or 'tutorial' that will permit implement a PDC server for authenticating and sharing files and printers for windows and linux clients?
I need to allow my Windows users to be able to check off "Read-Only" or "Hidden" attributes on our Samba share. Currently its not allowing me to do so.
After searching online, I set the map readonly, hidden and archive option to "yes". Then my entire files were hidden.
I'm having a hard time understanding the concept of the "map" option in smb.conf
I want to replace Windows AD with SAMBA I want to know what policies restrictions I can get in SAMBA as compared to windows AD - whether it is possible to restrict clients not to change IP, access cdrom or control panel.
I have installed centos 5.4 with samba 3.0.33-3.15. Now this server is PDC for a domain with 20 xp client. I want to set the "password must change" option in the samba user detail.Now I have this configurationmaximum password age = 68256000maximum password age = 0with pdbedit -Lv pippo
I want to set samba to act as domain controller PDC.Is it possible to create user profil in samba with rights to change network settings but not install software, create users.Something like network admin that is like normal user but he is able change network settings.
Code: $ su -c 'yum install wine' this forum won't let me put all the text in Transaction Check Error: package openldap-2.4.21-6.fc13.x86_64 (which is newer than openldap-2.4.21-4.fc13.i686) is already installed package nss-softokn-freebl-3.12.4-19.fc13.x86_64 (which is newer than nss-softokn-freebl-3.12.4-17.fc13.i686) is already installed
I have a RHEL 5.4 server installed in a server farm. The server is administered under a central AD, which means that administrators are registered in the AD.
However, I have to deploy an application on the linux server, that will use it's own OpenLDAP server. This means that this application will be the client to the LDAP server installed on the same RHEL server.
I tried installing OpenLDAP using yum and it resulted in a very fatal issue. Somehow the configuration files used for finding the Linux server from the AD was overwritten and the Linux server was not reachable anymore.
After some investigations, and possibly, rebuild, the server has been handed over to me.
The problem is how should I install OpenLDAP so that the existing connection to AD is not lost.
On the Linux server I see a /etc/openldap directory but only contains ldap.conf and cacerts directory.
I am having some trouble with Cyrus SASL and OpenLDAP. I tried to configure OpenLDAP using SASL for all conection but I cannot map the SASL-DN to OpenLDAP's DN. Below is my configuration file, slapd.conf
[code]...
After I finished the configuration, I try to use ldapsearch tool to verify, but I cannot:
Just installed openldap server on a VM CentOS called 'ldapsrv', it works fine, ldapsearch returns all ldap information.
Installed openldap client on another VM CentOS called 'ldapclient1', configured it with most basic configuration, no ssl/tls etc. but ldapsearch returns error:
I've configured OPENLDAP server on the CentOs 5.3. Well everything is working fine .All the uses have been added to the database.database is bdb in ldap configuration.Now client machine is on windows xp. how to integrate Windows Xp with the LDAP server for authentication.
I currently have an OpenLDAP server where everytime I add a new user their DN looks like this: DN: cn=username,ou=people,dc=domainname,dc=com Is their anyway I can change there dn to be in the following format? username@domainname.com
I'm having much problems trying to configure openldap on Ubuntu 10.0.4 LTS I have tried many tutorials, many configuration but still without results, I made the following script (for not repeating the same work, again & again)
I need to know is there any way to record or tracking or make logging if when user samba delete files or folders i can know that, cause sometimeon samba server some users complain they lost files, though i have daily backup and i can restore their files, i just want to know if or maybe some other users in one group accidentally move or delete the files.
I am planning to deploy an OpenLDAP server in my LAN for basic authentication, but I have no idea how to do it. I would like to know how to configure an OpenLDAP Server, and I would also like to know about knowledge resources, if any.
I am systems administator of the university CS lab. I have a Mac here and I'm trying to extend the directory to our OpenLDAP server. We use NFS as well. I know nothing of Macs in this respect except for the fact that they already have LDAP on them, which seems to be convenient.
I have no ACLs in place yet but want to use a user called ldap-auth-user to bind to the ldap servers directory from the client servers. However I keep on getting ldap_bind: Invalid credentials (49). Error. I know the UserPassword is correct because I can log into a server using that id and password through the LDAP directory. I am guessing it has something to do with the way I created the account.
