[opensuse-support] samba password fail after upgrade
Hi All-- I upgraded my file server from leap 42.2 to leap 15.0 and had samba problems like: "There are currently no logon servers available to service the logon request." So, I upgraded to tumbleweed and now my samba password fails every time even after I remove me as user, add me back with new password or even with no password. What has changed? My host is openSUSE tumbleweed, kernel 4.18.5-1-default My client is Windows Server 2016 and remote machines on Windows 10 The clients are running in vmware workstation or player 14.1.3 Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
So, I upgraded to tumbleweed and now my samba password fails every time even after I remove me as user, add me back with new password or even with no password.
what do you mean: samba_user or opensuse_user? you should do as root: smbpasswd -a [user] then enter password. its a good idea if this user (before doing this) also exists as opensuse user. (use same password will maybe avoid problems) i am not familar with your windows versions, for really old windows eg: 98/xp to connect to samba, you have to set some special (unsave) options inside the smb.conf: security = user lanman auth = Yes client lanman auth = Yes client plaintext auth = Yes (every time you play with this three options this will kill your samba password - so maybe this has happend when updating????) and for samba 4.8 and newer (to konnect to windows xp): ntlm auth = Yes but as mentioned, these are settings for connecting down to windows 98 and therefore its really unsave - do this only behind a big firewall - - and i do not think that this is your problem, except you have told your windows machines using such old settings. simoN -- www.becherer.de -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-support+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-support+owner@opensuse.org

These are long time established users this has been working for years.

Threre some big changes (mentionned into the release notes) Samba in Leap 15.0 can now be AD and also if you were using ldap openldap has been replaced by 389ds. The upgrade path will certainly not as easy as it was with previous version.
