Installation and Patch Requirements for HP CIFS Server A.02.03.06 Operating System Requirements HP CIFS Server A.02.03.
The patches are required to be installed to change a user password using passwd when the winbind entry is configured in /etc/nsswitch.conf. Kerberos Product and Patch Requirements Kerberos v5 Client version C.1.3.5.06 is required to support HP CIFS Server integration with Windows 2003 or later ADS Domain Controller (DC) on HP-UX 11i v1 systems. Kerberos v5 Client version D 1.6.
Known Problems and Workarounds The following is a list of known problems and, where possible, the appropriate workarounds for the HP CIFS Server A.02.03.06: Problem The net rpc trustdom establish command fails while attempting to establish a trust relationship with a Windows 2008 domain, and the following error message is displayed: NetServerEnum2 error: Couldn't find primary domain controller for domain 2K8DOMAIN. Workaround There is no known workaround.
Workaround The current version of smbstatus disallows a normal user to initialize tdb files. A normal user must preform smbstatus after HP CIFS Server is started by root, or tdb files have been initialized. Problem Changing the password stored in the smbpasswd file from a Windows XP machine without the sign and seal patch will fail and corrupt the password for the user. Workaround The password must then be reset by the administrator if this occurs.
Problem Because of increased Windows security requirements, profile storing may fail if adequate authority has not been configured for roaming profiles. Workaround Set profile acls = yes for the profile share used for the user profile files. Do not set profile acls = yes on normal shares as this will result in incorrect ownership of the files created on those shares. Problem 64 bit Windows XP clients cannot connect to the CIFS Server when it is configured with smb.conf parameter "security=server".
The user will be added correctly and the misleading messages will only be displayed with the first occurrence of adding a new Samba user. Workaround Verify that the user has been added correctly and ignore the misleading messages. Problem 64 bit Windows XP clients are unable to add a new ACE.
Problem The delete operation on a large number of files from a directory takes a long time to complete. Workaround One workaround is to close the Windows Explorer after the delete process is started. Beginning with A.02.03.01, another workaround is to set the "change notify timeout" smb.conf parameter to zero. When set to zero, change notification messages will not be sent and the long delays will not occur.
