Folks, Fixed it, looks like 'make install' doesn't move pam_winbind.so over to /lib/security either so I was using an old version. The libnss* libs not going over correctly really should've given me a hint given that the resulting error (request size 2088, expected 2096) is the same.
Create a link from /lib/security/pam_winbind.so to /usr/lib/security/pam_winbind.so and suddenly all my problems vanished. I can now: map network drives to the samba box and create files with the correct Active Directory user/group names smbclient onto the samba box ssh onto the samba box as an AD user, pick up the correct home directory and use the correct user/group names. -- -- adrian/witchy Owner of Binary Dinosaurs, the UK's biggest home computer collection? www.binarydinosaurs.co.uk -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
