Hi,

I have recently installed samba 3.0.14a on an AIX 5.2.0.6 server. I have joined the AIX server to a NT4 domain called ESC. When I do a wbinfo -u I get the users of the domain. I then setup a share "psoft" that I want to be "read only" to everybody but 5 users. Those 5 users I've added to the "write list" of that share. I also setup the "force user" and "force group" of the share to be psoft and psoft respectively. These 5 users do not know how to login to the psoft unix user due other things that unix user does.

This share is basically a read only share of the application files which are on the server. Only 5 people apply patches to the software. The read only is working. The users can be authenticated and work _only_ if I add a matching unix user in /etc/passwd. Due to recent audit problems, I do not want to make unix users at all (Besides, I'm force user/group'ing anyways).

Is it not possible to have an NT4 PDC authenticate a user and that user _not_ exist as a unix user?
