Yes, so it seems , I used smbldap-groupadd -a -g 512 -o -r 512 -s
S-1-5-21-4269728302-1655870493-3894479995-512 -t builtin "Domain Admins"
and now it is nicely added, slapcat:
---------------
dn: cn=Domain Admins,ou=Groups,dc=ahm,dc=nl
objectClass: posixGroup
objectClass: sambaGroupMapping
cn: Domain Admins
gidNumber: 512
structuralObjectClass: posixGroup
entryUUID: da450b08-2002-1028-9366-cd900415d4ac
creatorsName: cn=Manager,dc=ahm,dc=nl
createTimestamp: 20040411125236Z
sambaSID: S-1-5-21-4269728302-1655870493-3894479995-512
sambaGroupType: 5
entryCSN: 2004041112:52:36Z#0x0002#0#0000

still don't know what sambaGroupType is though.
From the samba-howto on http://www.unav.es/cti/ldap-smb/smb-ldap-3-howto.html:
SID_NAME_USE_NONE = 0,/* NOTUSED */
SID_NAME_USER = 1, /* user */
SID_NAME_DOM_GRP = 2, /* domain group */
SID_NAME_DOMAIN = 3, /* domain: don't know what this is */
SID_NAME_ALIAS = 4, /* local group */
SID_NAME_WKN_GRP = 5, /* well-known group */
SID_NAME_DELETED = 6, /* deleted account: needed for c2 rating */
SID_NAME_INVALID = 7, /* invalid account */
SID_NAME_UNKNOWN = 8 /* oops. */
is the number 5 for the sambaGroupType the SID_NAME_WKN_GRP?
so translates the samba type "builtin" to "SID_NAME_WKN_GRP"?
deleted the group and added again with:
smbldap-groupadd -a -g 512 -o -r 512 -s
S-1-5-21-4269728302-1655870493-3894479995-512 -t domain "Domain Admins"
slapcat:
dn: cn=Domain Admins,ou=Groups,dc=ahm,dc=nl
objectClass: posixGroup
objectClass: sambaGroupMapping
cn: Domain Admins
gidNumber: 512
structuralObjectClass: posixGroup
entryUUID: ec233b38-2007-1028-936b-cd900415d4ac
creatorsName: cn=Manager,dc=ahm,dc=nl
createTimestamp: 20040411132854Z
sambaSID: S-1-5-21-4269728302-1655870493-3894479995-512
sambaGroupType: 2
entryCSN: 2004041113:28:54Z#0x0002#0#0000

looks like it. But from that same site I see:
ntSid: S-1-5-21-298858960-1863792627-3661451959-512
ntGroupType: 2
is ntSid the same as sambaSID and ntGroup the same as sambaGroupType?
Next , it is impossible to add users to this group:
#smbldap-groupmod.pl -m gerrit "Domain Admins"
#/usr/local/bin/smbldap-groupmod.pl: group Domain Admins not found!
but :
# smbldap-groupshow.pl "Domain Admins"
dn: cn=Domain Admins,ou=Groups,dc=ahm,dc=nl
objectClass: posixGroup,sambaGroupMapping
cn: Domain Admins
gidNumber: 512
sambaSID: S-1-5-21-4269728302-1655870493-3894479995-512
sambaGroupType: 2
returns the group info, how's that?
and if I add the group wheel to ldap:
#smbldap-groupadd.pl -a -g 512 -o -t local "wheel"
and
#smbldap-groupmod.pl -m gerrit wheel
slapcat:
dn: cn=wheel,ou=Groups,dc=ahm,dc=nl
objectClass: posixGroup
objectClass: sambaGroupMapping
cn: wheel
gidNumber: 512
structuralObjectClass: posixGroup
entryUUID: 2ad34a12-2003-1028-9367-cd900415d4ac
creatorsName: cn=Manager,dc=ahm,dc=nl
createTimestamp: 20040411125451Z
sambaSID: S-1-5-21-4269728302-1655870493-3894479995-2025
sambaGroupType: 4
memberUid: gerrit

The user gerrit has been added , now why wheel yes, but "Domain Admins" no?
Allso "net groupmap list" doesn't show anything. Is the net command anywhere
usable with a samba + ldap setup? If I want a groupmapping from
ntgroup "Domain Admins" to unixgroup wheel , how do I do that than.
I gave the group "Domain Admins" the gid 512, get's that translated to the
unixgroup 512 , being wheel? Do I have to add the group wheel at all to ldap,
as wheel allready exists as a local group? Yes I do because the user gerrit
exists only in ldap. Is the type "local" from the various samba types
referring to a "local unix group" or to a "local windows group on a machine"?
Apparently not because the type local gets sambaGroupType 4 , and I assume
that means SID_NAME_ALIAS, being a local group on a windows ws. So where
happens the groupmapping?
TIA
