Winbind had to checksum stuff to derive ids if you didn't have the POSIX schema set up, IIRC. Random changes of id were somewhat inevitable. (Also if it was an old enough version, it didn't even try to use the POSIX schema because at the time almost nobody had it installed and things tended to be weird on the AD end if you set it up. These days it's both fixed and installed into AD by default.) -- brandon s allbery kf8nh sine nomine associates allber...@gmail.com ballb...@sinenomine.net unix, openafs, kerberos, infrastructure, xmonad http://sinenomine.net
