[Samba] Problem with winbind in Win2k domain

[Matt Butt]

D'OH!

Found the problem - I forgot to put "writable = Yes" on the share
config!!!

Typical administrator issue - get all the tricky stuff done but forget
about the easy stuff!!!


Forgive me if I'm asking this in the wrong place, but when trying to get
all this working I've found several things that might be worth putting
in the Winbind documentation.  Where should I send this info?

Thanks for the reply.

I thought the whole idea of WinBind is that you don't have to manually
add any domain entries into your local passwd files.

If I look at the results on "getent passwd" and "getent group" I can see
my domain username & domain group, but Samba will still not let me write
any files on the share.

Any other ideas?

check your passwd and smbpasswd. Make sure you have
the account.
