https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=444603 Summary: Make it possible to promote posixAccounts to sambaSamAccount in LDAP Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Factory Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: lurch@gmx.li QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: --- At the moment, it has to be decided if a user has an samba account can only be decided when the account is created. If an samba account shall be added later for a user, this is not possible with the Yast UsersPluginSamba, as this requires changing the password (or setting the same password again). IMHO, this restriction is to strict. The following should be possible: - Activate the samba account for the user : this should add the sambaSamAccount objectClass to the user, : at least set the user sid, optionally the group sid : leave the password empty - The user can then later on change/reset his password with "passwd" : The user has a valid posixAccount, which allows him to authenticate : himself against LDAP. : if there is an LDAP ACL "access to attrs=sambaNTPassword by self write", : the user is able to set his samba password even without an preexisting : samba password -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Unfortunately: 1. Or samba configuration as created by YaST by default disallows write access to the samba*Password attributes, IIRC. 2. The user might be a pure Windows User, so he can't set his initial samba password using his Linux/Unix Account Maybe we should move this as a feature request to Fate, though. And discuss with the samba team how things can be improved in the future. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
