Public bug reported: After an unattended upgrade to samba 2:4.7.6+dfsg~ubuntu-0ubuntu2.26 on our fileserver, clients are not able to establish a connection to samba- shares. The fileserver serves as a domain member server with an ldap on a different machine (see output of testparm below).
Given the correct login credentials, the client responds with: tree connect failed: NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED and the client specific samba-logfile on the fileserver will show: [2021/12/09 15:04:29.783978, 0] ../source3/auth/auth_util.c:1259(check_account) check_account: Failed to convert SID S-1-2-34-5678910-11121314-15161718-192021 to a UID (dom_user[MYDOMAIN\myusername]) A wrong password in a client throws: session setup failed: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE The config was working fine until the unattended upgrade from samba 2:4.7.6+dfsg~ubuntu-0ubuntu2.23 to 2:4.7.6+dfsg~ubuntu-0ubuntu2.26 I have tried to reproduce the behaviour on an Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS with samba 4.13.14 and ran into the same error.
