Hello, I am new to the list and this is my first posting to the list.
I have an ADS running on Win2k3 in Native Mode. I have a user created in ADS. While creating the user I have specified the "Win2K name of user" as testbug and "Pre-Win2k Name of user" is bugtest. Essentially they are not same and do differ. I have a samba 3.0.25d running on Fedora Core 7 which has joined this ADS domain. I also have a share whose definition goes as [myshare] comment = Mary's and Fred's stuff path = /music valid users = "DOMAIN\testbug" "DOMAIN\foobar" public = no writable = yes printable = no create mask = 0765 Security is setup to ADS and Realm is specified correctly. Now when I try to map this share through samba as //10.52.10.20/myshare using username DOMAIN\testbug fails authentication. NTLMSSP authentication mechanism is tried ( I have seen wireshark logs ) and ADS returns back an error NT_STATUS_USER_NOT_FOUND. When I provide the user "DOMAIN\bugtest" - the pre-win2k user I can see in the logs that authentication is successful. Basically in winbindd logs I see PAM returning 0. But further more after authentication winbindd gets the valid users list and tries to verify that "DOMAIN\bugtest" is indeed in the valid users list. As you can see in the share definition that user is not there. Hence winbindd does not allow access to the share in spite of successful authentication. If I specify the user as "DOMAIN\foobar" for the authentication from Windows everything is hunky dory and user foobar is able to mount the share. So in essense "When win2k and pre-win2k names of user differ I am not able to mount the share using win2k name of the user" Has anyone ever faced this issue? Or aware of any solution?
