[Samba] Re: Groups with Samba domain controler or domain member
Update again: glibc-2.3.1-46 _did_ break alot of things. I downgraded back to the one that came on the RedHat 8.0 CD. You could downgrade to RedHat 7.3 (run up2date!) to fix this problem, or work around it as I described. I hadn't tested that workaround, so your only option could be going back to 7.3. Well, I tried to change the ownership to the numeric gid, it worked, but afterwards it doesn't show the group name, only the gid. So I'm not sure it is actually working. However, it is not so important for me by now, I will leave it as is by now; it would be more pain to mess wth glibc, than create some additional groups:) __ Do You Yahoo!?

Update: The bug has been fixed in RedHat Rawhide (8.1 beta). I downloaded glibc-2.3.1-46 and it worked for me, but it might not work for you, or worse, crash hard.

[Samba] Re: Groups with Samba domain controler or domain member
Are you using RedHat 8.0? It's also broken on my RedHat 8.0 workstation; I think it's because there are so many members of that group and some broken library in 8.0 can't handle long group memberships. It's working perfectly on all of my 7.3 servers. A _possible_ workaround is: getent group | grep 'Domain Users' (find out what the group id is. On my system, it's 1). chgrp 1 -R some_directory I can't test it, it's just a thought. I'm waiting anxiously for RedHat 8.1, but I'm also considering moving my workstation to Debian. Well it is Redhat 8.0. So may be it is specific Redhat problem, but not so important for me by now; however it is good if you know everithing works as it should work. __ Do You Yahoo!?

Re: [Samba] Re: Groups with Samba domain controler or domain member
Besides how to overcome the issue with permissions using group names with spaces, what other kind of information do you need to know about groups? Well, is it possible to map some NT group to Unix (except Domain Admins and Guests)? I need at least the Domain Users group, since I had set up a lot of permissions on users workstations using that group to make some programs work as ordinary user (One example is Word 97 on Windows 2000 - it behaves quite badly if you don't play with some regystry permissions). Should I wait for the next release of Samba or there is some workaround to make this working with the current stable release? __ Do You Yahoo!?

chgrp 'Domain Admins' some_file.txt I tried that; it works with Domain Admins and every custom created group, but not with the built-in groups like Domain Users.
