I can't make it work although both sign&seal and restrictanonymous are set to 
0.  

My setup is: w2k sp2 as PDC, w2k sp3 as client, samba 3.0a21 joined into the 
PDC domain as an ADS member.  The scenario is, from the w2k sp3 client, 
connect to a share hosted by samba, create a file, then use 
property->security->add tab to add an ACE, then the browsing user/group 
windows appears and only the samba box itself appears (and greyed out), no 
domain info is available.  Using a w2k sp2 client works just fine.

Last Friday's HEAD code won't let the sp3 client to connect.  Today's HEAD 
code got this error and winbindd dies.
[2003/04/28 14:54:07, 0] sam/idmap_tdb.c:db_idmap_init(280)
  idmap_init: Unable to open idmap database
[2003/04/28 14:54:07, 0] sam/idmap.c:idmap_init(70)
  idmap_init: could not load or create local backend!

I will try older HEAD code in the mean time.

I would like to know if anybody had success of using w2k sp3 or win 2003, as 
PDC or client.  Any hints of how to make this work?


Thanks in advance!

Chere
