I'm pretty sure this /was/ working, which is why I'm posting it here rather than to [EMAIL PROTECTED] I'm doing a net rpc vampire, using ldap as a backend, and I have a simple add group script which creates a group in LDAP and prints out the GID of the group it's created for samba to hoover up. However, the primaryGroupID appears to be set to some completely random number instead of the correct GID - for example, this account should have a primaryGroupID of Domain Users:
dn: uid=waider,ou=People,dc=company,dc=ie objectClass: posixAccount objectClass: account objectClass: sambaAccount uidNumber: 1126 gidNumber: 1000 homeDirectory: /home/waider uid: waider rid: 1181 primaryGroupID: 513 displayName: Ronan Waide cn: Ronan Waide description: yadda smbHome: \\srv1\waider homeDrive: H: profilePath: \\pdc\profiles\waider logonTime: 1046707306 logoffTime: 1040143165 kickoffTime: 2147483647 pwdLastSet: 1044452015 acctFlags: [U ] But the Domain Users group entry looks like this: dn: gid=Domain Users,ou=Group,dc=company,dc=ie objectClass: posixGroup cn: Domain Users gidNumber: 1002 getent group Domain Users returns this: Domain Users:x:1002: So why is Samba setting the primaryGroupID to 513?
