|
| My first problem:
|
| After a while, wbinfo [-u|-g] returns
|
| server:/var/log/samba# wbinfo -g
| Error looking up domain groups
|
| After restarting winbindd, it works again for a while. What's the proper

I think this has already been fixed in our CVS tree. The bedian
packaging script should be fine for RC4 so you might just want to build
your own package from that tree and see if things work better for you.
| I created a directory /mnt/admin with this ACL:
|
| # file: .
| # owner: root
| # group: root
| user::rwx
| user:DOMAIN+username:rwx
| group::r-x
| mask::rwx
| other::r-x
|
| When I create the ACL with setfacl -m u:INTERNAL.DOMAIN.COM:username:rwx,
| only DOMAIN+username (the short NETBIOS name of the domain) is listed in
| the ACL.
Haven't we already talked about this one? I'm having serious
deja vu here. winbindd mostly operates on the short name of the do9main.
| [admin]
| browsable = no
| path = /mnt/admin
| public = no
| write list = DOMAIN+username
|
| This won't work. Windows domain user "username" gets "Access denied" when
| trying to create a file on the share.
|
| However, this works:
|
| write list = INTERNAL.DOMAIN.COM+username
|
| Is this a bug or a configuration problem on my side?
did you define the workgroup and realm in smb.conf?
cheers, jerry
