Hello.
I've setup a FreeBSD 4.x machine with Samba 2.x and and OpenLDAP backend.
I recently upgraded to Samba 3.0.10 and put "passdb backend=ldapsam_compat" in smb.conf.


Now, everythings seems to work all right, but I see a lot of this entries in the logs:

Feb 17 19:42:27 xxxxx smbd[44170]: get_alias_user_groups: gid of user yyyyyyy
doesn't exist. Check your /etc/passwd and /etc/group files


This happens always with yyyyyy ever changing and being either an user or machine account.

I can't get to understand the reasons of this: /etc/passwd and /etc/group are correct.

In OpenLDAP I only have user/machine accounts, not groups.
                                                 ^^^^^^^^^^

it is suspected that samba ldap code has an assumption that user/group information should be in LDAP, I also saw something very strange with
similar situation, but (LDAP but no ldap_nss at all), unfortunately I didn't have enough time to make investigations.



I tried "net group [add]" but it does nothing. Also "net groupmap list" shows no entries, which I don't think is correct.


I've read all the howto and googled a lot, but found no answer.
Any hint?

bye & Thanks
        av.
