 Is any of the bug reporters still affected by this bug?
 
 I deeply suspect that this bug is over for a while and was probably
 fixed during the various fixes that happened for 3.0.23d.
 
 I really consider closing the bug.
 

If not running winbindd, this is normal.  The debug message
in later Samba releases was increased so as not to cause
undue concern.

 nmbd is not always necessary; for instance in a non-Windows environment
 with working name resolution.  It would be nice if the samba init script
 supported only starting the smbd daemon.
 
 If you have a non-Windows environment, use a better protocol. :)
 
 I consider this a wontfix.

Steve,  Many distribtions will not start nmbd if
disable netbios = yes in smb.conf for those AD environments
that have disabled the legacy protocol.  Something to consider.

Bug#424629: [Samba] force group to Unix group in 3.0.25

 Guys, I want to double check the patch to 3.0.24 
 (thanks, Jerry, for it) but I need a test case...
 Given that I have to coordinate that update
 with Debian's security team, I better have
 to be triple secured..:-)
 
 However, I still haven't understood what *exactly* 
 is the bug..:-)
 
 David, do you have a smb.conf excerpt which 
 I could use for testing this ?

Christian,  The issue that setting force group on a share
was causing all additional supplementary gids to be dropped
from the user's token.

So setup a share that has force group = foo and then
create a directory or file that the user should be able
to access based on supplementary groups other than
foo.

You can verify the fix by looking at the NT and UNIX user
token debug output in smbd's level 10 debug logs.

Sorry for all the hassle and the regression.  Jeremy
and I have both looked over the code and haven't seen
any other code paths than would be problematic so
I think this one patch is enough.

 Our bug.  I fixed it last night for next week's 3.0.25a release
 (http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Release_Planning_for_Samba_3.0).

 You can either retest against the SAMBA_3_0_25 svn tree or I
 can send you a patch.
 
 
 Jerry, apparently this bug hits Debian's version in etch as it
 appeared after the security fix for CVE-2007-2444. See
 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=424629
 
 As you certainly know, upgrading the version in etch 
 to 3.0.25a is out of question, so we need to patch the
 3.0.24 version to fix this.

 So, if you have the patch handy, we'd be deeply interested.

Ah yeah.  I didn't think about that.  Attached.

 Is there a bug report for this issue in Samba's BTS? I can't 
 find one.

Note sure.  We went back and forth with David Rankin on it
getting the necessary information.

 Jerry, this is bug #2973 in bugzilla...
 
 Is the relevant patch available somewhere so that we can see whether
 it may be fixed in Debian's 3.0.14 (aka backport the patch)? The case
 seems to fall among fixes that are acceptable for the Debian stable
 distribution, assuming we backport the fix (as having 3.0.2x in Debian
 stable is out of question for well known Debian policy reasons).
 

My guess is that you need to look at svn revisions
7696, 7708,  7385.  It's mostly changes to source/rpc_parse/parse_rpc.c
I think.

It was removed with the 'winbind enable local accounts' as

accounts.
