Hey All,
RedHat 9.0

I was attempting to allow several domain users the ability to log into
my domain controller with their logins. Because the server had no
local group set up for the users, I created them with the groupadd
utility. About 10 minutes later I got a call from my users telling me
they couldn't access their network shares because the drives hadn't
been mapped. I checked some things out, and sure enough the GID of
one of the new local users conflicted with the domain group 'nobody'.
I'm watching the logs and i am seeing the following errors for all of
our shares that people are trying to access on the domain controller:
Jul 1 11:05:36 lp-pdc1 smbd[1998]: [2008/07/01 11:05:36, 0]
smbd/service.c:make_connection_snum(620)
Jul 1 11:05:36 lp-pdc1 smbd[1998]: '/home/public' does not exist or
is not a directory, when connecting to [public]
I have since removed the local groups that I added, thinking that this
would fix the problem. It did not.
The directory exists and the permissions are as such:
drwxrwxrwx 4 root nobody 4.0K Oct 22 2007 public
Any advice as to what I can do to salvage this? I have restarted
samba, and the server but this has not fixed it.
I know my OS and samba are extremely out of date. They are like the
because I do not want to wreck anything, like I just did...
Thanks,
Adam
Also,
This error just showed up in /var/log/messages

Jul 1 11:31:51 lp-pdc1 smbd[2305]: get_alias_user_groups: gid of user
nobody doesn't exist. Check your /etc/passwd and /etc/group files
The user does exist
# grep nobody /etc/passwd
nobody:x:99:99:Nobody:/:/sbin/nologin
# grep nobody /etc/group
nobody:x:99:
The GID of the domain account is 2004. Should the local GID match the
domain account? I don't think that it has ever matched before and it
was working fine
