Run the following command- and make sure that that the guest account is
mapping to a real unix account.
#testparm -v | grep "guest account"

You do *not* need this is the you are not using explicit idmap alloc, just
the default idmap range. idmap alloc is apparently not working.
I _am_ specifying ranges via 'idmap uid' and 'idmap gid'. I assume
that's different than what you meant by 'default idmap range'.
In any case, I tried the above, and got the same error for both command :
"The only currently supported backend is LDAP"
My smb.conf has a line expressly saying "idmap backend =
ldap:ldap://localhost";. Does smbd have to be running before running
the 'net idmap' commands? If so, I'm screwed, cuz now that I fixed
the 'out=IDmap' typo, smbd dies immediately after trying to start it.
You should leave the config as is.
smbd really should not die. Are you sure smbd is not still running? Did you
join your own domain on the PDC (eg net rpc join -S localhost)?
yes, I'm sure. 'ps -ef | grep mbd' shows just the nmbd process, not
any smbd process. Also, the log.smbd ends with 'ERROR: failed to
setup guest info.'.
No, I did not join my own domain. Should I have?
I think you need to use the smbldap-tools. Once configured correctly they
will prepopulate your LDAP tree for for you. There should be packages in the
repos for most distros.
I'll look into that. Centos doesn't have smbldap-tools in it's
official repos. I imagine that someone has made rpms, though, for
centos.
Thanks,
Jon
