If the gidNumber for the gid is stored in AD (as the 2008 and samba4

The AD schema is still 2003. And who manages it thinks the world is
Win-only :( It's easier to talk a mountain into moving itself than

Hi Diego

I think the schema we use (Samba4) is m$ supplied. Our devs fought to get it out of them a few months ago. It is 2008 and/or 2008r2. It certainly has all the rfc2307 stuff that Linux needs out of the box. It has objectClasses posixGroup and posixAccount and all the attributes that go with them.

We tried winbind, but the mappings uid:gid just don't work for us. It seems a pity to have this all available in the schema but still recommend external winbind mappings. But we are very novice in all this.
Cheers,
Steve
