I'm having some odd problems with USRMGR and Samba group accounts. USRMGR seems to work fine for user accounts, and it also correctly displays the list of group objects (these are all stored in LDAP btw). This can be seen in http://www.ehsco.com/misc/samba/umgr-main.gif
Two of the groups can be managed while the other two cannot. For example, http://www.ehsco.com/misc/samba/umgr-admins.gif shows that the "Admins" group can be opened but http://www.ehsco.com/misc/samba/umgr-users.gif shows that the "Users" group cannot ("The group name could not be found"). Similarly, the "LM Hosts" group can be opened but the "Nobody" group cannot. All of these groups DO show up in various places (like security dialogs, and in the USRMGR list obviously) but they can't be viewed for editing in USRMGR. Separately, some groups don't show up in the user settings. For example, http://www.ehsco.com/misc/samba/umgr-root.gif shows the group options for the "root" account. Note that the "LM Hosts" and "Nobody" groups show in the candidate groups, but the "Admins" and "Users" groups do not (despite the fact that "Admins" is one of the groups that can be opened for editing as described above). The groups appear to be properly defined in LDAP. I've recreated them just to be sure ("LM Hosts" is a new group I created for initial testing and it shows up fine so I thought I'd recreate the others but that didn't help), and have also manually rebuilt my LDAP indexes. "net groupmap list" shows all of them and their correct mappings. This really has me flummoxed. Any ideas? What am I missing? -- Eric A.
