Hello Lars,
Fantastic work - thanks. My Suse 9.3 x64 now works with your RPMs!
I wonder if your expertise might help with my 'nemesis'. I have been
compiling Samba-3-14 and Samba-3.21 for the last couple of weeks and
have everything working nicely with the Samba commands but for the life
of me I cannot get nsswitch to be called when I use 'getent passwd' or
'getent passwd username'.
I compile with:
./configure --with-smbmount --enable-cups --with-ads
--with-shared-modules=idmap_rid --with-pam --with-pam_smbpass
I copy libnss_winbind.so to /lib and made a link to libnss_winbind.so.2
followed by 'ldconfig'.
My nsswitch.conf reads 'passwd: files winbind' and group: files
winbind'.
I join the domain and all the wbinfo commands (-t -u -g -a) work
perfectly and I watch the workings of winbind running in the foreground
as 'winbind -n -i -d 4'.
I have removed the nscd and libnscd RPMs from the system.
However as soon as I try 'getent passwd' or 'getent passwd nkelly' or
'getent group' I see no response from winbind whatsoever.
Clearly nsswitch is not finding or calling libnss_winbind.so - but I
cannot see why. An indentical server running 3.0.14a works better - it
responds to 'getent passwd nkelly' correctly but not to 'getent passwd'.
Any ideas would be much appreciated as atlhough it is nice to have your
RPMs, I would like to know where I went wrong.
Many thanks
Noel

at ftp://ftp.SuSE.com/pub/projects/samba/3.0/ or
http://ftp.SuSE.com/pub/projects/samba/3.0/
Currently there are packages for SuSE Linux (x86 and x86_64) 9.1, 9.2,
9.3, 10.0, UnitedLinux 1/ SuSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) 8, SLES 9,
and factory (= the currently developed product).
Packages for ppc are only available for 10.0, SLES 8, SLES 9, and
factory as there are no other SuSE Linux product of this architecture.
Please inform us if you have different architectures (ia64, s390) and
like to see Samba RPM packages for these too.
The same packages are also available at
http://download.Samba.org/samba/ftp/Binary_Packages/SuSE/3.0/
Please use a mirror close to your site. A list of Samba.org mirrors is
available at http://Samba.org/ There choose a mirror at the right top
of the page.
There are also a bunch of SuSE mirrors. A list of international mirror
sites is at
http://www.novell.com/products/suselinux/downloads/ftp/int_mirrors.html
A list of mirrors in Germany is at
http://www.novell.com/products/suselinux/downloads/ftp/germ_mirrors.html
If you encounter any problem with these packages please don't blame the
Samba Team. Instead file a bug to https://bugzilla.Samba.org/, pick
product Samba 3.0, then select 'component' Packaging and set 'assign to'
to lmuelle at suse dot de. Or use http://bugzilla.Novell.com instead.
Our customers, our products, our responsibility.
Have a lot of fun...
Lars
