DFS , XP and user mapping

[Henrik Beckman]

Hi,

We have a small issue  with DFS in samba 3.5.11, our server is using ADS 
and likewise, AD is windows.
Users are mapped to unix user, our older dfs 3.0.28 based samba with 
security domain is ok with xp but works on ip only in win 7.
3.5.11 works ok with Win7 but not with XP,  however accessing on \\IP 
\dfsshare in XP works. 

So this point to auth problems. Samba seems to map user ok on win 7 users 
but win xp users get SID=NULL and is then mapped to root, this causes 
samba refuse dfs connections.
By now trying any more smb.conf switches will only lead to further 
insanity.

change_to_root_user: now uid=(0,0) gid=(0,0)
