I added that and restarted winbindd (and Samba just for good luck). It didn't seem to help; I could not log in via SSH as merely chris.palmer. I had to do the full GENEEDINC+chris.palmer as before. Also, I get this error: === params.c:Parameter() - Ignoring badly formed line in configuration file: winbind use default domain === So it looks like my version of winbind (from Samba 2.2.7) doesn't have support for this feature. > It's not supported by the samba team on 2.2.x, but it works quite well > for authentication via pam (there are apparently issues with samba, > specifically ACLs). Yeah; doesn't seem to work for me at all. Well, thanks for the tip. Will I just have to wait for Samba 3 for this feature? Its lack is hardly a deal-breaker, so I can wait. -- Chris Palmer Systems Programmer GeneEd -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
