BAD: kerberos and samba issues
Last modified: 2007-11-30 17:07:03 EST
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4.3) Gecko/20040803 Description of problem: It would appear that with the latest samba and kerberos libraries released that there is an issue with accessing samba shares. The issue is that you must use the FQDN instead of the short name for the service to work correctly. Apparently, this has to do with the version of kerberos samba was built against. I apologize for posting the bug relating it to kerberos, but I thought it was the appropriate place to start. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): samba-3.0.6-2.3E krb5-libs-1.2.7-28 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. install latest samba and kerberos 2. configure samba to use ADS 3. attempt to map a share using something other than FQDN Actual Results: failed Expected Results: should connect just fine Additional info:
I've posted to a similar bug report on bugzilla.samba.org here: https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1717 Having exact same problem as person who created the ticket @ samba.org. Redhat AS 3.0, samba quit working after recent upgrade from 3.0.4 to 3.0.6. Log entries are on their website. Went as far as uninstalling samba and krb5 from the box and manually compiled krb5 1.3.5 from MIT and Samba 3.0.5, 3.0.6, and latest CVS. Same problem all the way around. Samba started misbehaving for me after the large "quarterly update". Upgraded a bunch of packages, could be any one of the other packages that were upgraded that created this problem, but I'm not technical enough to determine which one.
