Slackware :: Where Is Samba Password File - Need To List Its Users
Apr 5, 2011I need to see who all the Samba users are. Some other distros keep that in /etc/samba/smbpassword file but I don't have that file here.

I want to use samba in ubuntu.For samba users i make a user in my linux box like
# useradd smith
# useradd jone
These users can also login into my ubuntu system if they want. For samba I want to know that, is there any way to create separate valid list of samba users so that they may access files from windows xp.
I want to create a webpage where users can change their samba password and before I jump to PHP code i want to write perl code that can be called in php code.I have created two file 1. main.pl - this script actually switch user and call passwd.pl2. passwd.pl - this is actually changes the password {main.pl}
#!/usr/bin/perl
my $username = $ARGV[0];
my $oldpass = $ARGV[1];
[code]....
I need to create a script that returns a list of the users who have never changed their password from /etc/shadow. As I know on linux there is a command "chage" used for find last password change.

I want to use samba for file sharing like on a Windows home network. Actually they are all Linux machines but nfs is too complicated. On my host machine I installed samba and system-config-samba. I created a new share for /home, check marked writable and visible and put access to everybody. For preferences-->server settings--> security the "authentication mode" is set to user, encrypt passwords is no, and guest account is no guest account. Under preferences-->samba users I added myself as a user with the same windows user name as my Linux user name and the same password.
My client is a virtualbox fedora (used for testing purposes but actual clients will be real computers on my home network). I entered the address smb://192.168.1.184. When asked for the user name and password I put my regular user name and password since that was what I set in samba users. However, the password dialog keeps coming up and won't let met into my own computer. If I quit it says something like access is denied. How can I get my home network back? I liked this feature when my home computers ran XP but I switched them to Fedora 12.
I installed SLES 10.2 with SAMBA 3.5.5.43 to retire our old Microsoft Windows 2000 Server and save some money. All was fine until last week when our chief asked to me to set password expiration for all clients. This morning, all users cannot logon because, when they logon, windows asks to change password and then it gives error error "Access Denied".

I'm working in a school and we have a Apple server, we have many problem with it. So, I would install a linux server instead.
Anyway, there is just one big problem (or I miss a simple tip to do it )
We have 1300 students. If I must create them one by one, that will take a lot of time. Actually with the apple server, we can go on a web interface & import an excel list with theses columns :
"Name", "Login", "Password", "Class", "Group", "HDD Space", "Print quota", "Internet access or not", etc ...
Due to this tool, I can upload an excel files with my 1300 students & a couple hours after, they have an account with a personal space & a shared space with their class.
My question is : This tool exist on Debian/Linux world ?
I've published a samba share on a Ubuntu 8.10 server, and mounted the share on a windows box. For some strange reason the files are not sorted by file name (nor by any other sorting type) if I list them from the Windows command line (dir). I could always use the "dir /on" parameter, but I hope there's a way to make samba sort the files for me

My principal dude is:
how look in the /etc/passwd file a user and passwd?
The problem is the password is encrypted and i need compare with the data I read.
Only I can use BASH because it is school homework.
I run:
Linux 2.6.27.48-0.3-pae i686
openSUSE 11.1
KDE 3.5.10
When I attempt to determine who's in the samba database or enter a new member in the file I get the following: No builtin nor plugin backend for tbdsam found PANIC (pid 8201): pdb_get_methods_reload: failed to get pdb methods for backend tbdsam

I attempted to upgrade from the software.opensuse.org website with samba-3.60-10.1.i586.rpm. I get a message: Nothing provides cifs-utils needed by samba-client-3.60-10.1.i586.rpm. So I could not upgrade. There are other upgrades on the site but they are not available for some reason. What is an appropriate upgrade? Is upgrading the solution? If not then what?
How would I list 4 users ID numbered 10, 11, 12 and 13 from my users list and output them to a file busers where their names are numbered by ascending order? How would I accomplish that on a one line command?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI remember that some time ago I found a guide on the Ubuntu website about adding samba shares to mount at boot via /etc/fstab. The guide also mentioned using a credentials file to store the username and password.
However, the password was encrypted (in md5 I think) and it could not be read directly, but it still worked with fstab mount. If I remember correctly, the file contents were similar to this:
Code:
useraname = user
password = --md5
where was replaced by the encoded password. All was done in terminal. Recently I changed computers, and re-installed Ubuntu, but I forgot to save that file so I am not sure about the contents. I would like to know how to do this again, but I can't find the guide anymore. Does anyone know how to do this? Storing the password in plain text in file readable only by root is not acceptable because it can be read by someone mounting the drive from other operating system, and the share cannot be mounted/unmounted by regular users (which is possible with the md5 encrypted password).
I work as an system administrator for AIX and Linux servers. We have an FTP server running in Linux which has shared folders to Windows domain using Samba. The new requirement is to map users created to Linux machine to Windows users in such a way that, when a user logins into Windows machine with an ID say "X123" in domain "TEST", his access control to the samba shares should reflect based on the same user ID created in Linux machine.(FYI. Both the Windows and LINUX machines are in same network and domain). Please let me know the step by step procedure to configure Linux machine (smb.conf entries or any new file to be created for user mapping) to identify Windows user Login and provide access restrictions accordingly.

I am sharing a NTFS formated hard drive where the mount point is in my home directory, as well as a printer connected via USB. I am to the point where printing works (using it as an ipp print share, samba is configured for it, but I don't know if it works or not), and I can access the shared folder from Windows, but I can't access the shared folder from any Ubuntu machine.

If I want to add Windows & Mac users as Samba users, must I first add them all as Ubuntu users? If so, since none of the other users will actually be working on the Ubuntu Server, how do I disable the other non-admin users on the Ubuntu Server login screen. I am using Webmin to administer some server settings, and command line for others.

I have NIS setup to manage all my users, and I have samba set up to share out a directory to the users windows computers - which are part of a corporate domain. I have a requirement to synchronise the NIS password to the Samba password so that when a user changes their password in the Linux environment it automatically updates the Samba password so that the user can simply update the password stored by Windows Explorer.

I have a Samba server running in my Lan (mainly for file and print service). This server will act as a PDC (don't ask why...). I have a question: Under a share I can use the "read list" and "write list" options with groups (eg @users). Is that group a Linux or Samba group? If it's the later, am I forced to use the net groupmap command, or it is sufficient to have a group name in the /etc/group file? Should I add samba/linux users to that group (with net rpc) or is sufficient to have the group membership set in the linux?

The reason for this is that I created a system user with a specific UID, and I forgot it. The 'user' command only lists the nonsystem users.

My system is SUSE 11.1 I want to see who is connected via SSH. For instance, I have users connected using FileZilla. I can see in th e/etc/var/messages that they authenticated/connected, but I can't see if they have since disconnected or not.
Also, about 3 years ago I used to use Fedora for my SSH and in the sshd_config I'd make custom logs for each account, specify which user accounts were possible, port number, etc, etc. Is this possible to do using the SUSE linux? Any links on how to do this on suse? I haven't used linux in 3 years and can't find my old sshd_config files to take a glance...I did look at the sshd_config on SUSE, but it looks very different.
I would like to know a command which will tell us,
