This sounds more like an Windows problem, but it is an interaction with
Samba and I'm hoping someone has an idea of where to start looking.
3 times in the past week I've had a user (different user each time) come to
me saying their P: drive is inaccessible, access denied. The P: drive is set
in the user's Active Directory Profile as their home directory
\\sambaserver\home$\%username%
If I have them access their home directory using a UNC through explorer, it
works fine. I can either have them unmap and remap P: or logout and log back
in again, and everything is fine. So, clearly, the Samba server is accepting
their credentials. But something is happening between Windows 2000 and the
Samba server causing Windows to get confused. Up until 3 weeks ago, we were
using a Windows 2000 file server, so Samba is the only new introduction. I'm
dedicated to getting this Samba solution to work, despite the crappy support
by BackupExec that I'm finding with my backups, but this is something I'd
like to nip in the bud, if I can.
I'm running 3.0.20b on SuSE 10.0. I'm using the Suse rpms, except I rebuilt
them to include the idmap_rid support. Here's my smb.conf
[global]
unix charset = LOCALE
workgroup = MYDOM
realm = MYDOM.INT
server string = Production File Server 03

allow trusted domains = No
enable privileges = Yes

idmap backend = idmap_rid:MYDOM=10000-50000
idmap uid = 10000-50000
idmap gid = 10000-50000
template shell = /bin/bash
winbind separator = +

Thanks
