All our users' home directories are on a second linux server, FS-01. It's been joined to the domain (command "sudo net join -U Administrator", which is the name of the "root" account). And here's a snippet from it's smb.conf:
bash-2.05$ testparm Processing section "[homes]" Loaded services file OK. Server role: ROLE_DOMAIN_MEMBER
# Global parameters [global] workgroup = CAMPUS netbios name = FS-01 security = DOMAIN client lanman auth = No client plaintext auth = No name resolve order = wins os level = 0 preferred master = No local master = No domain master = No wins server = wins.uwrf.edu
If I logon to the domain from an XP machine and pull up the properties|security on one of my files, it shows the following in the "Group or user names" box:
* Group icon for Everyone
* User? icon with a SID listed
* Group icon with the name of my group listed
Why do I get the User? icon with the SID showing? The SID appears to be the localsid for FS-01 (where the homes share is located).
From FS-01: bash-2.05$ sudo net getlocalsid CAMPUS SID for domain CAMPUS is: S-1-5-21-1347140671-2256076281-2964443892 bash-2.05$ sudo net getlocalsid SID for domain FS-01 is: S-1-5-21-3124996394-1784840607-3979961563
The User? SID is S-1-5-21-3124996394-1784840607-3979961563-10808
I was expecting the User icon with my login name since this is supposed to be a single domain with single users/groups. If I look at a file on \\DC-01\netlogon, I see my name and group. Is there some step I've missed in setting up the homes server?
