Description barthek 2004-09-12 13:35:56 UTC
ive upgraded to samba 3.0.6 (from 3.0.5) and it seems that it has some issues with  username map. i use username map = /etc/samba/smbusers which maps NT domain users to local users in form:
zbych = PWDNT\zbyszek

with samba 3.0.5 everything works as expected, domain user zbyszek gets access to samba as zbych.
with samba 3.0.6 though, it looks as if smbusers were simply ignored. domain user zbyszek gets connected as PWDNT\zbyszek and in turn does not get zbych's permission to access shares.

downgrade to 3.0.5 resolves the issue.
Comment 1 Christian Andreetta (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-09-13 06:40:31 UTC
from samba 3.0.6 Changelog: "Dont always uppercase 'username map'"
maybe uppercase/lowercase misspell?
Comment 2 barthek 2004-09-13 09:55:16 UTC
hmm i tried these combinations:
zbych = pwdnt/zbyszek
zbych = PWDNT/zbyszek
zbych = "PWDNT\zbyszek"
zbych = PWDNT\zbyszek

what else would you suggest to try ?
Comment 3 Christian Andreetta (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-09-14 02:35:14 UTC
grunf! :-)
in samba-3.0.6-r4, we included a pre-3.0.7 winbind patch. So, your issue is not a bug, but a feature ;-)
what is your winbind conf? with a 'testparm -v -s' you obtain then _full_ samba conf: search for a parameter called 'winbind separator': this will be the separator between domain and user part in smbuser.
Anyway (since I don't use it myself): are you sure you need the domain part also? this should be taken from smb.conf...
Comment 4 barthek 2004-09-14 09:49:59 UTC
hmm
ive upgraded to latest ebuild od samba (3.0.7), the problem is still there.
i tried '/' instead of '\' just for test. with samba 3.0.5 the entries with '\' work like a charm.
i also tried changing 'winbind enable local accounts' from 'No' to 'Yes' but it didnt help neither.
as usual downgrade to 3.0.5 resolves the issue :\
awh and domain name must be in smbusers since i also have local users whose logins are exactly the same as in domain.
Comment 5 Christian Andreetta (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-09-15 07:43:14 UTC
if it's nothing that can be solved with some conf tweak like the use of '+' for the separator, seems like it's an upstream change in standard behaviour.
Maybe you should open a bug in https://bugzilla.samba.org, since 3.0.5 has some open flaws (in security also) that suggest to upgrade to latest stable
Comment 6 Christian Andreetta (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-09-16 01:01:01 UTC
new notice: maybe it's a linker issue. I'm writing down 3.0.7-r1, which should allow better libraries behaviour. It should be released in an our via rsync.
Let me know if this resolves your case
Comment 7 Christian Andreetta (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-09-18 01:19:32 UTC
just tried. samba-3.0.7-r1 should resolve this. Reopen if needed
Comment 8 barthek 2004-09-18 05:25:39 UTC
nope it did not help at all :\
i 'just' emerged samba 3.0.7-r1,
is there anything i'd have to do to properly upgrade it ?
Comment 9 Christian Andreetta (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-09-20 04:21:43 UTC
could you post your 'emerge info'?
Anyway, could you give me a couple of examples of the reason you have to specify the domain part?

there is no reason to specify domain. i just showed example entries that work with samba 3.0.5 and dont with 3.0.6 and up.
i tried using zbych = zbyszek or doli=doli but in samba logfile:
- there are errors about not finding home directory of user PWDNT\user for [home] share
- domain user is being connected to samba as domain user and not being mapped to local user

i just want it to work but it just wont...
Comment 11 barthek 2004-09-20 08:25:07 UTC
additional note:
after tweaking samba conf files am at a point where
i can map domain users to local users - without using domainname in smbusers:
dolec = doli (doli is a PWDNT\doli user)

i can not map domain user to local user with same login name though.

using doli = doli does not work (log: connect to service samba initially as user PWDNT\doli). neither does doli = PWDNT\doli (as it used to work in samba 3.0.5)
Comment 12 barthek 2004-10-21 07:38:01 UTC
do you guys have any ideas how to make it work?
i fear of being hacked through samba ;P
Comment 13 Christian Andreetta (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-10-22 01:44:27 UTC
All tests I made were successful. I'm using winbind for this, and username map is followed.
From samba upstream Release Info, username map behaviour changed: for example, I read 'BUG 1297: Prevent map_username() from being called twice during logon'. _If_ this was the reason in 3.0.5 all was ok, now this is deprecated.
Another thing to notice: samba auth is strictly tied to pam conf (just a reminder :-) )
Can you post your samba conf?
Comment 14 barthek 2004-10-23 03:54:28 UTC
hmm but were you successful in mapping domain user x to local user x (i mean exact  login name) ? i am able to map domain users to local users but with different login names :\

here's my samba.conf:
[global]
        unix charset = ISO8859-2
        display charset = ISO8859-2
        workgroup = PWDNT
        security = DOMAIN
        map to guest = Bad User
        password server = PWDNTPRIMARY
        username map = /etc/samba/smbusers
        client NTLMv2 auth = Yes
        client lanman auth = No
        client plaintext auth = No
        log level = 2
        log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
        max log size = 500
        max open files = 1000
        socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
        load printers = No
        preferred master = No
        local master = No
        domain master = No
        ldap ssl = no
        idmap uid = 45000-60000
        idmap gid = 45000-60000
        winbind enable local accounts = No
        hosts allow = xxx
[samba]
        comment = samba mia
        path = /lvm/samba
        admin users = doli
        read only = No
        guest ok = Yes

... and other shares ;)

my samba PAM config:
auth       required     pam_smbpass.so nodelay
account    required     /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth
session    required     /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth
password   required     pam_smbpass.so nodelay smbconf=/etc/samba/smb.conf

please help :\
