I had a similar problem. For me was the problem, that the root (/home/samba/shares/) folder didn't have the correct group rights.

So to solve the problem I checked the right from the user eg.

Code: [Select]
id user1
# uid=65541(MYDOMAIN\user1) gid=3109(MYDOMAIN\domain users) groups=3109(MYDOMAIN\domain users),3000009(BUILTIN\users)

Then I moved the profiles folder and checked the right of itself as well as the shared folder eg.

Code: [Select]
cd /home/samba/shares/
getfacl ./
getfacl ./Sharefolder
# They should both have something like:
# group: MYDOMAIN\134domain\040users

If both have correct rights you can check if you get access if you change the console user eg.

Code: [Select]
cd /home/samba/shares/
su user1
ls -lah
# Should show you all shared folders
ls -lah Sharesfolder
# Should show you the content of that shared folder

If the folder has not the correct rights you can set them using eg.

Code: [Select]
setfacl -m g:"MYDOMAIN\Domain Users":rwx ./
setfacl -m g:"MYDOMAIN\Domain Users":rwx ./Sharesfolder

Hoped that helps...

Directory and Authentication / Re: Unable to log into domain
« on: February 27, 2017, 02:11:19 pm »
Did you deactivate the IPv6 protocol?

Check if the domain gets resolved correctly. Open cmd.exe and use the following command:

Code: [Select]
nslookup domain.local
Pls replace "domain.local" with your domain name.

Hi there,

I stumbled over an old problem on a old Zentyal machine. It seams like there are serval problems with the LDAP:

  • In the "User and Computers" and "Mange" I can't see anymore the setup of Users nor change anything there (s. post)

     
  • If I try to add a new user I get the message:
       
    Quote
    An internal error has occurred. This is most probably a bug, relevant information can be found in the logs. Please look for the details in the /var/log/zentyal/zentyal.log file and take a minute to submit a bug report so we can fix the issue as soon as possible.

  • The two LDAP (Port 390 and Port 389) seams not synchronized, or is that okay?

       

       there is no Users on the LDAP with the Port 390?

  • If I try to access via "dsa.msc" to the active directory it returns:
    Quote
    Active Directory server is not functional
    I had to deactivat IPv6 as it did't resolve the domain correct.

Everything seams a little strange, any idea where to start digging?

Installation and Upgrades / Re: [FIXED] Zentyal 5.0 not booting
« on: February 09, 2017, 11:44:29 am »
Same problem here. As soon I chose LVM finished the installation and reboot the system I got problems. Seems to be something about grub or grub2.

Same LVM setup based on Ubuntu 16.04.1 desktop amd64 iso runs without problems.

Does anybody has an idea why?

ps: not sure if it is a good solution not to used LVM... the advantages of an LVM are to big.

I think I found the solution... lets see...

I added the group __USERS__:

Code: [Select]
groupadd __USERS__
Now it seams to restart the samba server correctly.

Code: [Select]
2016/06/28 14:43:10 INFO> Samba.pm:259 EBox::Samba::_postServiceHook - Setting roaming profiles...
2016/06/28 14:43:11 INFO> Samba.pm:319 EBox::Samba::_postServiceHook - Applying new permissions to the share 'Folder'...
2016/06/28 14:43:12 INFO> Samba.pm:403 EBox::Samba::_postServiceHook - Applying ACLs for top-level share Folder

Well it still takes a while to apply the ACLs... I'll update if there is any problems.

UPDATE:
Okay after that zentyal coudn't restart the network module... there were some lock file blocking something. I had to restart the machine twice until everything was work again.

Hi trysomething,

thx for your replay. You were right I can't start the the samba server as zentyal module.

Code: [Select]
service zentyal samba restart
 * Restarting Zentyal module: samba                                      [fail]

As far as I can see there was no problem with updating any packages. The following samba packages are installed:
Code: [Select]
dpkg -l | grep -i samba
ii  libsamba-perl                        0.11                                    Perl bindings for samba 4.0
ii  samba4                               4.1.5-zentyal1                          SMB/CIFS file, NT domain and active directory server (version 4)
ii  slapd-smbk5pwd                       2.4.28+51~precise1                      Keeps Samba and Kerberos passwords in sync within slapd.
ii  zentyal-samba                        3.3.5                                   Zentyal - File Sharing and Domain Services

By any chance that the problem is resulted by wrong or missing users and right?

As far as I understand the zentyal.log which is created when I try to restart the zentyal samba module there are some invalid groups and users:

Sorry but I didn't upgrade anything! Just install the regular updates of the packages.

Either you didn't read my post correctly or you didn't  understand it.

Did you see the attached log file? All modules restart proper just the samba module I have to restart manually.

8
With one of the last updates (at least I think that's error source as I didn't change any configuration) the zentyal users disappear:



When I restart zentyal manually, I failes on restarting samba, I have to start it manually:

Code: [Select]
/etc/init.d/zentyal restart
/etc/init.d/samba4 start

As far as I can see the samba users exists. The command pdbedit -L shows me the correct list and also in the Active Directory Users and Computers lists the users correctly. But Ubuntu doesn't know anymore the users. The command: cut -d: -f1 /etc/passwd shows just the standard users as well as the "user1" from zentyal.

When the samba restarts it shows the following information in the zentyal.log:

Code: [Select]

Any idea what went wrong?

The full log of the restart process, I added as attachment.

Seems like it is the normal event notification...

It's changable over the Events -> Configure Dispatchers -> Mail

10
Just a quick question. I get every 10 minutes a mail saying:

Quote
info : Zentyal UI is up and running

Does that mean the Zentyal UI just restarted or that is is "still" running?

Regards Valentin

ps: Where can I configure the intervals of that info log?

Okay I solved the situation. First I had to tell the system via the LiveUSB that it boot from the raid. Beside the update-grup command I had missed the update-initramfs command. So the system was booting again but got still stuck with the zentyal loading image.

I had to log in via ssh and my local zentyal user. A quick scan of the system showed my that almost all the services didn't run. With the

Code: [Select]
sudo services zentyal restart
I could solve these problem. After another reboot of the system everything was working fine again.

Hi there,

I have the problem that my zentyal machine, it doesn't start anymore after we had a power failure in our area. After a manual reboot the system stayed with the loading picture of zentyal for a while. Neither to switch to console 1 nor to anything else give a clue that the machine was doing. So I run the system from LiveUSB and could see that one of the raid disk had to resync (it took like 3 hours).

After another reboot of the system, now not even the grub2 loader appeared... So I started again with my LiveUSB-System, installed the mdadm library mounted the LVM partitions and run grub-install as well as update-grub. But still the same problem, after showing the BIOS logo the screen stays black... for me it looks like the system can't run the grub2 loader from the boot partition... Any ideas to solve or to narrow the problem down?

Hope you guy can help,
regards Valentin

Thx again for your opinion christian.

Just to finish the thread and to sum it up. At the end I setup the local server independent of the live server. Of cause it would have been nice for the coworkers to have the same account for their emails as for the local workstations but anyways.

Best regards,
Valentin

Zentyal doesn't bring any phone number management interface in account management

Well, I just figured out that it's possible to use LDAP Account Manager to do that. And one's the setup is done in the right way it works pretty smooth.

I just don't understand why these further contact information are not share between the two LDAP.

Hi there,

I'm just trying to make up my mind, but after a lot of reading I'm still not sure what is the better approach.

I have set up a zentyal environment in our small office and using it currently as File Sharing System as well as local DC. As I have to renew mail server anyway the question is if I sould not use zentyal as well for it. At the moment I had for testing a Debian Squeeze machine with Froxlor as administration interface.

So now I've two option, either I use my already installed debian server as mail server or I install the ubuntu server edition on the machine in combination with zentyal to try to link it with the local server.

Here are my personal pros and cons about it, though the second scenario is full of question marks...

___
local zenyal and live froxlor administration
PRO
  • main argument, I know already how to set up everything, no complications suspected
  • IMAP accounts are from everywhere available
  • ...
CON
  • setup manually, no synchronization to the local user accounts
  • two independent administration
  • ...
___
local zenyal and live zentyal administration
PRO
  • user accounts could by sync
  • mail could be send over vpn directly from the external mail server (no problem with others people spam filter)
  • feature modules like owncloud could be implemented
  • Zarafa...
  • etc. pp.
CON
  • I never did such a implementation, not sure if there will be too many obstacles
  • ...
So my question is basically, are there impotent augments/problems I have forgot? What is your guys suggestion for me?

Regards
Valentin
