RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Marc Muehlfeld 2017-09-29 10:57:28 UTC
Problem description:
If you run an smbcacls command without specifying the password in the -U parameter, the command fails and prints:
> cli_full_connection failed! (NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE)
instead of asking for the password such as other tool do (e. g. "net" or "samba-tool").



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
samba-client-4.6.2-11.el7_4.x86_64



Steps to reproduce:
1. Run:
   # smbcacls //server/share / -Uadministrator
   cli_full_connection failed! (NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE)



Further details:
* The command works if you add the password to the -U parameter. For example:
  # smbcacls //server/share / -Uadministrator%password
  But this should not be the recommended way.
* Connections also work if you have a valid Kerberos ticket and pass the
  -k option to the command

Comment 3 Andrej Dzilský 2017-10-27 17:02:26 UTC
Verified. Smbcacls now prompts user for password if no password was used.
