Hi, Further to the above I found that WINBIND Daemon is necessary for this type of operation as noted below in smb.conf file:
============================== winbind nested groups (G) If set to yes, this parameter activates the support for nested groups. Nested groups are also called local groups or aliases. They work like their counterparts in Windows: Nested groups are defined locally on any machine (they are shared between DC's through their SAM) and can contain users and global groups from any trusted SAM. To be able to use nested groups, you need to run nss_winbind. Default: winbind nested groups = yes =========================== I have not currently configured WINBIND Daemon. I wanted to know whether the WINBIND Daemon is must for this type of operation. Can any one help me in getting this clarified. If NO, what is the steps required to do this? Thanks in advance for any kind of information regarding this. regards Aravind -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
