I've a little problem starting winbindd. using It on a redhat 9 linux, compiled from source.
I've configured nsswitch.conf with winbind and kerberos. Naturally joined my ADS realm with the following command: net ads join -U administrator successfully. now the problem is that smbd and nmbd work correclty but I can't start winbindd due the following error and I can't manage why, from the log.winbindd: [2003/10/15 10:54:24, 2] lib/interface.c:add_interface(79) added interface ip=192.168.5.13 bcast=192.168.5.255 nmask=255.255.254.0 [2003/10/15 10:54:24, 5] lib/util.c:init_names(270) Netbios name list:- my_netbios_names[0]="NORAD" [2003/10/15 10:54:24, 2] lib/interface.c:add_interface(79) added interface ip=192.168.5.13 bcast=192.168.5.255 nmask=255.255.254.0 [2003/10/15 10:54:24, 5] lib/gencache.c:gencache_init(59) Opening cache file at /usr/samba/var/locks/gencache.tdb [2003/10/15 10:54:24, 5] libsmb/namecache.c:namecache_enable(58) namecache_enable: enabling netbios namecache, timeout 660 seconds [2003/10/15 10:54:24, 0] nsswitch/winbindd_util.c:winbindd_param_init(445) winbindd: idmap uid range missing or invalid [2003/10/15 10:54:24, 0] nsswitch/winbindd_util.c:winbindd_param_init(446) winbindd: cannot continue, exiting.
