Hi, All
I was wondering if any one else is having issues with supplementary groups
not being recognized. It seems as if Samba is ignoring the sup.groups. I'm
using RH9.0 on Intel with samba-3.0.0-2_rh9 and OpenLDAP 2.0.27. When I do
a "id -a username" the user is in all the necessary groups but when
accessing shares the users' primary GID is used only.
I have the same problem using samba 3.0.2a SUN Solaris-9 SUN One Directory Server 5.2
Supplementary groups are recognized quite correct under unix shell environment, but samba can recognize them only from /etc/group file ignoring content of /etc/nsswithch.conf
Is it bug or samba-3.* feature?
What are the clients you use ? If Win9X, there was a bug in Samba3 before 3.0.1rc? where groups where compared in uppercase to the posix ones (mostly lowercase). It has been corrected in latests Samba 3.0.2 and 3.0.2a.
Also, remember that all the secondary groups you need to see in Samba have to be defined in LDAP, and groupmapped.
Regards,
Jérôme
