Hi,
since I was bitten badly by this today, I take the additional time to
report this issue here.
After upgrading from samba 3.5.8 to 3.6.0rc3, Administrator on the xp
clients (yes, still xp sp3, no vista, no win7 clients here) lost its
admin privileges.
My Samba PDC setup evolved over about a decade now,
Ditto.
but since it still
needs to support a small environment only (20 xp, 30 users), I kept
the "security = user" approach,

(only need to support 1-2 users ! ... + my many personalities!
Users and admin can "domain" login just fine, but with 3.6.0rc3, the
admin lost his privileges, simply downgrading samba to 3.5.8 fixed
this.

I didn't catch my problem soon enough and it corrupted my DB,
so after going back to 3.5.10, I'm slowing working on ironing out the
problems again.
Here's my samba build:
https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=samba&project=home%3Afrispete%3Asamba%3ASTABLE
That's linked to project network:samba:STABLE. If somebody from this
project there is reading here: Doesn't the term "STABLE" and the
project description imply stable released packages? IMHO, a release
candidate doesn't match this criteria, but others might disagree.

I saw the joke on the suse servers...but these are the same guys jumping
to every new tech for 'stable' User releases (still haven't recovered from
an 11.2->11.4 server upgrade done last april...keep finding "gotcha's" and
collateral damage.

FWIW, I reported 3.6 problems in the user database area on the samba tech
list back a month ago...never got any feedback.

My prob, is everytime I get my config 'correct', they change the
definition of
correct in a newer version...(sigh...what else is new...)...
