Hi Dale

that worked, thanks.

Just to clarify the "*" means everything else, right?
That's how I understand it. On the sites I visited while gathering this information, no one seemed to know why it is required, only that everything started working after it was added.
Cause now I am getting (only once)

    [2013/02/04 07:50:48.519114,  1] 
winbindd/idmap.c:288(idmap_init_named_domain) no backend defined for idmap 
config BUILTIN
I have that line, too and also a lot of other lines regarding BUILTIN. Everything is working, so I haven't put any effort into finding out why. If you run "cat" against your Samba logs and grep for BUILTIN, you'll see what I mean.



One strange side effect ... I have never had to reboot a machine because of a 
change to the samba daemon(s), a restart always worked. For a couple of days 
after the change I still was getting the message until I rebooted ... now I do 
not get the messages, weird.
On rare occasions, I've had to do the same thing. It's something I would try when all else failed.

Sorry that I don't have any concrete reasons as to the "why" of any of these things.

Jobst,

The following works for me in 3.6.x.  Modify to match your criteria.

        idmap config * : backend        = tdb
        idmap config * : range          = <low> - <high>
        idmap config DOMAIN : default   = Yes
        idmap config DOMAIN : backend   = <idmap backend>
        idmap config DOMAIN : range     = <different low> - <different high>

Hi.

I am getting loads of errors "no backend defined for idmap config MYDOMAIN" after 
I upgraded from 3.5 -> 3.6 a couple of days ago.

I read

   http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba_3.6_Features_added/changed

and did what
   man smb.conf

suggested:

   idmap config MYDOMAIN : backend  = tdb
   idmap config MYDOMAIN : range = 500-1999999


yet I still receive those errors. I used to have

   idmap uid = 500-10000000
   idmap gid = 500-10000000

and I had no errors while running 3.5.10.

I am not sure what I am doing wrong, help please.
