The latter. The operation that will always work is to return
the groups a user is in when logging in as that user.

Thanks, I already knew that getent group wouldn't work (on the original 
post ;)).


Thanks for the quick answer anyway.  So, according to AD ACL's, it's 
possible that a machine in a domain which needs to check group access 
(i.e. a samba box) may not get accurate information about whether a user 
is a member of a group? Or just that the ACL's may forbid the 
enumeration of group members for particular groups?


Thanks

getent group 

should give you what you want. But we do not give *any*
guarantees about the correctness of the result. There's a
number of reasons for not filling in the members correctly,
a number of them being out of our control (AD ACLs).

[Samba] Enumerate group members

2006-06-12 Thread Diego Rivera

Hello all!

Is it possible, using winbind (wbinfo, nss_winbind, etc) to enumare the 
members of an ADS group, with something other than the "id" command for 
each user, or "getent group"?  The "id" works but then I'd have to 
enumerate ALL users and build the meber list from there (too slow), 
whereas "getent group" will only list those members of a group for which 
the group is not the primary one.


Thanks

Diego
