R: [Samba] Fwd: SAMBA on AIX --> nsswitch.conf?

[Urs Golla]

nsswitch.conf does not exist on AIX! It works after changing
/etc/security/user and copying WINBIND etc...

I changed the idmap uid range in my smb.conf and if I now remove the
winbindd_cache.tdb and winbindd_idmap.tdb (+ restart winbind & samba)
it says "sid2uid returned an error" in the winbind logfile... "wbinfo
-i username" does also not work anymore... any idea?

thanks a lot!
