FYI... downgrading to samba 3.0.21b fixed the problem, upgrading again to 3.0.23a makes it break, and downgrading one last time to 3.0.21b fixes it.

Not sure if it's a problem with samba, or if Fedora's package is borked... I'm kinda assuming that the answer from the list is going to be "build 3.0.23b from source and call us in the morning." Perhaps I'll give that a try and report my results back here.

Greetings list,
I'm using samba 3.0.23a on a Fedora Core 5 system in a member server role in an Active Directory domain (security ads). My problem is that, although wbinfo -u and -g work great and can pull user and group lists respectively from AD, getent passwd and getent group do not. I've configured passwd: files winbind and group: files winbind in nsswitch.conf, and have configured idmap uid = 10000-20000 and idmap gid = 10000-20000 in the smb.conf file. testparm is clean, as is net ads testjoin. smbd and nmbd are running.

Running winbindd -i -d 10 & and trying a getent passwd results in a tiny amount of output from winbindd:
accepted socket 16
process_request: request fn INTERFACE_VERSION
[    0]: request interface version
process_request: request fn WINBINDD_PRIV_PIPE_DIR
[    0]: request location of privileged pipe
accepted socket 17
process_request: request fn SETPWENT
[    0]: setpwent
process_request: request fn ENDPWENT
[    0]: endpwent

... but no actual passwd data comes through.

I got this working several years ago with samba 3.0.10 on Fedora Core 1. What on earth could I be doing wrong?

Thanks in advance for any hints...
