The thing is: I'm using samba alpha22, installed from the binary rpm, as I'm using RedHat 7.3
I use samba as a Domain member of an AD Windows 2000. If I execute "wbinfo -u", I get the AD users. "wbinfo -g" gets me the AD groups. If I execute "getent passwd" I see all users (there are only two user accounts on the linux machine). If I execute "getent group" I see both linux groups and AD groups. So far so good. If I share a dir so that it can be reached only to the members of @"Domain Admins", no problem. Neither there is with @"Domain Users". But if I create a Global Group (e.g. Group1) in Windows 2000 AD and use it in smb.conf: [ruisdir] comment = Rui's Directory path = /tmp/apagar valid users = @"Domain Admins", @"Group1" read only = No guest ok = Yes and try to access the share as a "Group1" member, I get no luck. If I do: "id rclaro", which is a Group1's member, I get the following uid=10004(rclaro) gid=10000(Domain Users) groups=10000(Domain Users),10010(Group1) In short: If I use a "custom" AD group, I cannot have access to a share that uses it. In previous version (alpha21) the command "id rclaro" only showed the primary group. Here is a piece of my smb.conf: [global] workgroup = PORTO realm = PORTO.ICBAS.UP.PT ADS server = 192.168.1.150 netbios aliases = aulas server string = Servidor para aulas security = ADS password server = 192.168.1.150 socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192 winbind uid = 10000-20000 winbind gid = 10000-20000 winbind separator = ~ winbind use default domain = Yes Any help would be apreciated! ------------------- Rui Claro
