There is so many strange things... Or misunderstanding whats going wrong

I respect that some may be experiencing difficulties with deployment of
Samba 3.6.0.

I have been using 3.6.0 in its various pre-release forms (and now the
stable release) for many months without a single problem.  I have
deployed it in some very complex as well as some simple configurations -
all without any issues.

The purpose of this response is to point out that Samba 3.6.0 is perhaps
not as "not really ready" for production use readers of this list may
interpret from these reports.

Cheers,
John T.

Yeah, I still have this error even after downgrading to 3.5.10 --
I think 3.6 corrupted my userdb or changed the format... I suppose
I need to allocate a new one and start from scratch to fix it...

But lots of problems related to looking up the domain, the
PDC and some users.

I did try to report it, but since I wasn't certain what was going on and
just had a bunch of random symptoms, I got ignored.

But I did warn them that other users would likely have problems and
should
be warned...  That was ignored too..








I had the same error until today. It works for me with base_rid = 0

TRY:

         idmap config MYDOMAIN : backend = rid
         idmap config MYDOMAIN : range = 60000-50000000
         idmap config MYDOMAIN : base_rid = 0

i have set
idmap config MYDOMAIN : backend = ad

Is there any difference using

idmap config MYDOMAIN : backend = rid

instead

idmap config MYDOMAIN : backend = ad

When using Active Directory ?





Check the man pages (man idmap_rid) and (man idmap_ad):

The RID method generates the uid/gid from the RID. As a result all users in Active Directory can access the Samba server.

The AD method requires the use of the RFC2307bis extensions to the Active Directory schema and that you populate the uid and gid in with valid values using the Active Directory Users and Group management tool. If you have not populated the RFC2307bis uid/gid values the user will not be able to access the Samba server.

Using the AD method the systems administrator has control over which users can and cannot access the Samba server/s.
