This is the right list. I'm having similar problems with getent not working properly. Wbinfo -u / -g / -a work, but getent stopped showing anything but local users, though it USED to work. I wonder if it has anything to do with the upgrade to the errata glibc which provides getent? Or it could be any number of things, like in my situation the PDC was moved to a different server, and I'd done a few upgrades of samba along the way. The fact that you are having getent problems too is a good sign for me, maybe an answer will come.
As far as your "user not known to any authentication module" problem, despite my getent problems I have no problems logging in to samba for file/print services. Maybe posting the changes you made to pam.d/login and pam.d/system-auth will help some to fix that problem, or maybe logging into those services won't work until your getent starts behaving? Sorry I couldn't be of more help, but hopefully it's a start. ~ Daniel George Lenzer wrote: I'm running a RedHat 8.0 system. Pretty much stock. But I uninstalled the version of samba, samba-common and samba-client that came with it. Instead I downloaded a tarball from samba.org. I have just finished compiling and installing samba 2.2.7 using the --with-pam --with-smbmount --with-winbind options during configure. I also made the necessary changes to smb.conf, /etc/pam.d/login, /etc/pam.d/system-auth. The system has been added to my NT 4 domain with the smbpasswd command. If I test using the following commands: wbinfo -u wbinfo -g I get lists of the NT domain users and groups, respectively. Also, if I do: wbinfo -a DOMAIN+username%password I get the following message: plaintext password authentication succeeded So... it looks like my system is communicating with the NT PDC. But... if I try these commands: getent passwd getent group I only see the local users and groups listed, respectively. Also, when I try to log into the console with DOMAIN+username and then the password I get the following message briefly, then I am thrown back to the login prompt: user not known to any authentication module Anyone else here have winbind working?
