Title: Epoptes does not use samba/winbind groups Status in Epoptes: Fix Committed Bug description: Thanks for Epoptes ! We are using Edubuntu 12.04 with the Epoptes installed by defualt. While there was no issue in using Epoptes as any user declared in the /etc/group file within the epoptes group, we have experienced issues in using alternative group and in particular groups obtained though a samba server. The following describe the context : The /etc/default/epoptes file has been modified to include the statement SOCKET_GROUP=net_remoteview The net_remoteview group does not exist on the local machine but is coming from a samba server on the newtork mounted as a PDC. The group can be seen by the getent groups command. A user which belongs to the group net_remoteview is looged on the Edubuntu station and launch epoptes either from the GUI or from a command line. epoptes does not launch and comes out with the following error : 'An error occured while connecting: 13: Permission non accordée.' In order to test if it was not only a samba issue, a local group called epoptes_test has been created and the /etc/default/epoptes file has been modified to include the statement SOCKET_GROUP=epoptes_test. After logging again a user belonging to that new group, launching epoptes leads to 'An error occured while connecting: 13: Permission non accordée.' We would be very grateful if you could help us to locate and solve the issue.
