I have a samba PDC with LDAP backend running on CentOs 4. Everything is
working fine, but my log watch report showed two users with the same
SID. I checked it out and it appears that ROOT and the samba machine
ASTER$ both have the same SID.
If I do a pdbedit -Lv I get this:
---------------
Unix username: aster$
NT username: aster$
Account Flags: [W ]
User SID: S-1-5-21-1194936901-2368177035-684874509-1000
Primary Group SID: S-1-5-21-1194936901-2368177035-684874509-515
<snip>
---------------
Unix username: root
NT username: root
Account Flags: [U ]
User SID: S-1-5-21-1194936901-2368177035-684874509-1000
Primary Group SID: S-1-5-21-1194936901-2368177035-684874509-513
<snip>
I'm know enough to change the SID, but should I change the ROOT SID to
S-1-5-21-1194936901-2368177035-684874509-0? The UNIX UID # for Root is
0. Could this also explain why I cannot join a machine to the domain
using the client workstation?
