I am trying to use Samba
2.2.3a on a Solaris 8 system for dynamic view storage from W2K machines. I have
hit a wall though in that the view storage area on the Samba server refuses to
have the right permission even if I open it all the way to 777, set my UNIX
group to have administrative privileges or even if I log in as an
administrative user in the domain.
Have a look at the output
below. "CASCM1" is the name of my Samba server and
"rail-chq" is the name of the PDC for the RAILINC domain. The CASCM1
machine which is the Samba server and belongs to the RAILINC domain, does not
seem to be passing the information to the PDC for password and user authentication.
Can anyone help me out here?

So, my W2K machine and the
PDC can get the correct SID and UID information. However, the Samba machine,
"cascm1" cannot. It reports the SID of the machine "cascm1"
that was created when I added the "cascm1" machine to the Windows
Domain. In other words, the SID noted here is the SID in the
"MACHINE.SID" file on the "cascm1" Samba machine.
This seems to not be the
correct behaviour for Samba in the mode that I have it in, yet, I can set, get
and use UNIX user ids for the Windows IDs that I have without a problem on the
same share but not using the ClearCase commands. If I try to use any ClearCase
command that creates view or VOB directory structures, the root directory of
the VOB or view is created, the Samba machine just craps out when trying to
create the additional files or structures underneath it. What gives?!?!
