Hello world, I'm currently experimenting with a new Samba server that is to be integrated in an existing ADS domain.
System is Debian Woody, plus samba 3.0.0beta2+3.0.0rc2-1 and necessary dependencies. Kernel is 2.4.21 + Debian patches + XFS ii libc6 2.3.2-5 GNU C Library: Shared libraries and Linux bigberta 2.4.21-4-686-xfs #1 Mon Aug 25 15:44:37 CEST 2003 i686 smbd, nmbd and winbindd are working fine, I could joint the AD Domain in native mode, created partitions using XFS (with ACL support), and wbinfo -u bzw. wbinfo -g list the domain users and groups correctly. My first problem: After a while, wbinfo [-u|-g] returns server:/var/log/samba# wbinfo -g Error looking up domain groups After restarting winbindd, it works again for a while. What's the proper way to produce useful debugging information for the developers? My second problem: I created a directory /mnt/admin with this ACL: # file: . # owner: root # group: root user::rwx user:DOMAIN+username:rwx group::r-x mask::rwx other::r-x When I create the ACL with setfacl -m u:INTERNAL.DOMAIN.COM:username:rwx, only DOMAIN+username (the short NETBIOS name of the domain) is listed in the ACL. I created the following Samba share: [admin] browsable = no path = /mnt/admin public = no write list = DOMAIN+username This won't work. Windows domain user "username" gets "Access denied" when trying to create a file on the share. However, this works: write list = INTERNAL.DOMAIN.COM+username Is this a bug or a configuration problem on my side? Another thing I found in the winbindd log file: [2003/09/07 16:36:26, 1] nsswitch/winbindd_user.c:winbindd_getpwnam(147) user 'MACHINE$' does not exist MACHINE$ is the Windows client I'm using to access the share. Thanks for any hints! Alex -- "UNLESS someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better.
