Hi! Background: We have a normal NT 4.0 Domain called AIRPORT and a Windows 2000 Domain (server is in mixed mode) called MAIL. Connected to the AIRPORT Domain is a Samba 2.0.6 Server with security = domain. Both domains are trusting each other.
I've a little problem understanding the user authentification with the trusted MAIL domain. I'll it explain with a little example: We have a user called "testuser" on both domains (AIRPORT\testuser and MAIL\testuser). If I create a share on the AIRPORT PDC (WINDOWS NT 4.0) for the user "testuser", I can access it from AIRPORT. If I logon to MAIL, I'm not allowed to access it. If I expnad the user rights to MAIL\testuser I can access again. So far no problem. BUT: If I make a samba share (rember: the samba server is using domain security and it's connected to AIRPORT) for our testuser there is no difference which domain I use for login. If I logon to MAIL I also have access to the Samba Share. It looks like samba makes no difference between MAIL\testuser and AIRPORT\testuser. Now my questions: Is it right, that samba doesn't consider the "Domain-Part" of the username if the domains are trusted? Is it a missing feature or "should it be as it is"? Or I am just too stupid to understand the whole trusted-thing? Thanks for your help! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ronald Hitzler -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
