Ah. Thanks. That probably explains how I got a different SID in that one instance. I had an older version of Samba running, then when I went to upgrade to 3.0.20a I move the old /usr/local/samba aside (along with secrets.tdb) and then installed the new version. On starting the new Samba, it probably generated a new SID for me. I figured it was a PEBKAC. Thanks for the help. /dwight -- Dwight N.
