Im getting basically to "bugs" into my samba ... im using samba-3.0.2a (planning to upgrade soon, but atm i cant stop the service) im using log level = 10
my basic problem is: May 10 09:42:13 smb smbd[850]: [2004/05/10 09:42:13, 0] groupdb/mapping.c:init_group_mapping(139) May 10 09:42:13 smb smbd[850]: Failed to open group mapping database May 10 09:42:13 smb smbd[850]: [2004/05/10 09:42:13, 0] groupdb/mapping.c:get_group_from_gid(655) May 10 09:42:13 smb smbd[850]: failed to initialize group mappingget_alias_user_groups: gid 10012. not found May 10 09:42:13 smb smbd[850]: [2004/05/10 09:42:13, 0] groupdb/mapping.c:init_group_mapping(139) May 10 09:42:13 smb smbd[850]: Failed to open group mapping database May 10 09:42:13 smb smbd[850]: [2004/05/10 09:42:13, 0] groupdb/mapping.c:get_group_from_gid(655) May 10 09:42:13 smb smbd[850]: failed to initialize group mappingget_alias_user_groups: gid of user flavio.ribeiro doesn't exist. Check your /etc/passwd and /etc/group files i have looked into mapping.c and found this: tdb = tdb_open_log(lock_path("group_mapping.tdb"), 0, TDB_DEFAULT, O_RDWR|O_CREAT, 0600); if (!tdb) { DEBUG(0,("Failed to open group mapping database\n")); return False; tdb = tdb_open_log(lock_path("group_mapping.tdb"), 0, TDB_DEFAULT, O_RDWR|O_CREAT, 0600); if (!tdb) { DEBUG(0,("Failed to open group mapping database\n")); return False; as far as i can see its uses mode 0600 and i dont know why it starts bugging me, i have tried the following steps to see it could solve the problem, but it didnt. smb:/usr/local/samba/var/locks# ls -l group_mapping.tdb -rw-r--r-- 1 root staff 8192 May 10 05:47 group_mapping.tdb everyone can read, and i still get those problems, as far as i can see thats the file. smb:/usr/local/samba/var/locks# find / -name group_mapping.tdb -print /usr/local/samba/var/locks/group_mapping.tdb and because of this problem i think it aint executing the netlogon most of the times that happens (if i logon again with the user, the problem is solved) since i use my netlogon based on groups and many of my shares are based too, if samba cant map it, i will get troubles. this samba server is already in production so i cant "play" with it unless i warn first. hope i can get this problem solved. --- and this one which aint too bad: for no reason i get sometimes those lines: May 10 09:37:06 smb smbd[823]: [2004/05/10 09:37:06, 0] smbd/service.c:make_connection(857) May 10 09:37:06 smb smbd[823]: 3814 (192.168.2.44) couldn't find service May 10 09:37:06 smb smbd[823]: [2004/05/10 09:37:06, 0] printing/pcap.c:pcap_printername_ok(253) May 10 09:37:06 smb smbd[823]: Attempt to locate null printername!
