I don't get why 'winbind use default domain' did not cover the issue, since I have it set to yes. I assumed I could leave off the "DOMAIN\" portion and it would add it for me...but more specifically, even using DOMAIN\camera wouldn't work. I should clarify though that nowhere in my config am I actually typing "DOMAIN\"; I'm only swapping that in     on the mailing list as a redaction. When I tried the fully qualified user account in the IP camera's config the domain matched the one that this samba server is joined to.

Then, it wouldn't apply the the IP cameras at all. However even if that were the case I still can't explain the failure when I tried the user DOMAIN\camera.

>>> I recently upgraded an Ubuntu 8.04 LTS samba server to 10.04 LTS which took the installed version of samba from version 3.0.28a to version 3.4.7. The server is an AD member using idmap-rid. I have updated the idmap directives in the config and it mostly worked (winbind works, Windows users can get to their shares with their correct permissions, etc.). The only thing that got broken is the ability of our IP security cameras to store data directly to the server through samba. I believe this may have been caused by a change to a default setting, such as the  allowed authentication methods or possibly something like 'allow trusted domains', since these cameras are not capable of actually joining the domain. I've looked at some of the in-between release notes but no changes have jumped out at me.

>>> The cameras are configured to connect to the given smb/cifs server and share (which exists and can be mapped from Windows if you use the right user). The share ('camshare') has share-level permissions set such that DOMAIN\camera should have full access. I have winbind set to use the default domain so the cameras are configured to connect as 'camera' instead of 'DOMAIN\camera' (but I've tried both anyway, to no avail). I have checked the password on the 'camera' account repeatedly.
