Correct. There is no nsswitch.conf. You edit /etc/security/user default stanza with: SYSTEM=WINBIND registry=WINBIND NEVER change the root entry. You'll always want root to be local in case winbindd is non-responsive or have network problems. >I changed the idmap uid range in my smb.conf and if I now remove the >winbindd_cache.tdb and winbindd_idmap.tdb (+ restart winbind & samba) >it says "sid2uid returned an error" in the winbind logfile... "wbinfo >-i username" does also not work anymore... any idea? > The uid ranges should be set before you go production. These mappings are local to your AIX machine and represent local uid /gid mappings to remote SID values. Therefore, whenever you create objects on the local server via WINBIND based ids, they will have the uid/gid values assinged and stored in the winbind_idmap.tdb. These values are used to map back to SIDs on the remote host to determine access rights and such. When you deleted your tdb, you deleted your map. Once in place and in production, guard this file as if it were your child. It's contents are precious and should be carried forward when performing upgrades.
