Description Jóhann B. Guðmundsson 2007-03-12 09:23:46 UTC

Description of problem:

Came incorrect with samba-3.0.10-1.4E.11 packages
RHEL 4

Error log showed

nsswitch/winbindd_pam.c:winbindd_pam_auth_crap(429)  winbindd_pam_auth_crap:
non-privileged access denied.  !  winbindd_pam_auth_crap: Ensure permissions on
/var/cache/samba/winbindd_privileged are set correctly.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
User authenticating through Freeradius got denied 
When they were authenticating with Freeradius + Samba setup that involved winbind 

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Trying to authenticate 
2.
3.
  
Actual results:
File permission on /var/cache/samba/winbind was 0750

Expected results:
Should have been 0755

Additional info:

This setup was pptp + freeradius + samba ( pptp vpn setup )
Ensure next time that user rights on samba work for varios samba deployments
( Cups + Point 'N'Print, Freeradius + Samba + AD, Freeradius + samba + Winbind etc.)

Users of other service need to have access to samba.

Sorry jonathan, but the winbindd_privileged pipe is not supposed to be readable
by everyone. To let a daemon use it you must add the user it runs with to the
group owner of the privileged pipe.
Winbindd will not let you use the pipe if it is readable by everyone.
