[Samba] winbind uid range missing or invalid

[Porta, Thomas E]

My apologies, I meant to include the smb.conf GLOBAL parms, and
nsswitch.conf parms. Here they are:
  (I X'd out some of the settings)

[global]
        workgroup = xxxxxxxxx
        netbios name = xxxxxxxx
        security = domain
        password server = xxxxxx xxxxxx
        wins server = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
        winbind uid = 10000 - 19999
        winbind gid = 10000 - 19999
        template homedir = /home/windows/%D/%U
        template shell = /bin/bash
        os level = 2
        unix extensions = yes
        encrypt passwords = yes
        log level = 1
        syslog = 0
        printing = CUPS
        printcap name = CUPS
        socket options = SO_KEEPALIVE IPTOS_LOWDELAY TCP_NODELAY
        wins support = no
        veto files = /*.eml/*.nws/riched20.dll/*.{*}/


Here is the nsswitch parms:


passwd: files winbind
group:  files winbind

hosts:          files dns
networks:       files dns

services:       files
protocols:      files
rpc:            files
ethers:         files
netmasks:       files
netgroup:       files
publickey:      files

bootparams:     files
automount:      files nis
aliases:        files

Did you set 'winbind uid =' and 'winbind gid =' in smb.conf?
