With help from Doug VanLeuven I think we fixed the problem. The whole bit with the backslash was a dead-end. Doug sent over this script that puts the libnss_winbind.so and libnss_wins.so libraries where they belong and sets up working symlinks. The documentation for moving the libraries in section 22.5.3.1 of the Samba-HOWTO-Collection is wrong. Use Doug's script instead:
I think I still have some Kerberos work to do, but now I can open the shares on this system from a Windows box.

Try starting winbind with the options -i and -d <debug-level> like $ /usr/sbin/winbindd -i -d 3 This will show what winbind is doing behind the covers and possibly show what's wrong. 2. Are you able to authenticate using wbinfo -a username%password ? 3. I haven't used ADS and have only tried setting security=domain, so not sure about Kerberos auth. Have you joined your Samba server as a domain member of your Windows PDC? (Check your Active Directory setting in your windows PDC) 4. Also, make sure your /etc/resolv.conf contains entries to your nameserver, like "nameserver <pdc-ip-addr>" Murali -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
