[Samba] going from bad to worse

[Greg Andrews]

Howdy People,

Since my last posting things have definitely taken a turn for the worse

The XP clients cannot now even find the domain controller !!

my smb.conf file is

[global]
log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
load printers = no
name resolve order = wins bcast lmhosts host
admin users = @admingrp
socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
obey pam restrictions = Yes
lm announce = True
domain master = True
username map = /etc/samba/user.map
encrypt passwords = yes
passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
wins support = true
dns proxy = No
netbios name = SAMBASERVER
server string = sambaserver
logon script = logon.bat
unix password sync = yes
workgroup = PINARC
os level = 255
security = user
preferred master = True
max log size = 50
domain logons = Yes
logon drive = h:
logon home =\\%N\%U
logon path = \\%N\profiles\%U
add user script = /usr/sbin/useradd -d /dev/null -g 400 -s /bin/false -M /%u

[Profiles]
comment = Profiles Directory
path = /SYS/profiles
read only = no
create mask = 0600
directory mask = 0700
profile acls = yes
writeable = yes

[netlogon]
comment = For Administration Use
path = /etc/samba/netlogon
valid users = %U
write list = @admingrp
read only = no
create mask = 0644


[homes]
comment = %U home directory
path = /SYS/home/%U
valid users = %S
read only = No
create mask = 0600
browseable = No
directory mask =0700
locking = no

[open]
comment = Pinarc Readable Share
path = /SYS/world/open
read only = No
create mask = 0664
directory mask = 0775
valid users = @mars


The logon script is being executed and the profiles are being written and
updated.

How do you fix/delete/change the net groupmap list  output.
I think this may the root cause of my problems , but I just dont know the
syntax to fix/delete/change it.
I have searched google  and the samba manual and they seem to tell you
everything except how to delete/fix etc.

I have tried  net delete groupmap ntgroup="Domain Admins" and whilst it
says it has deleted this group in actually has done nothing.

Below is the output of net groupmap list and net getlocalsid

SID for domain SAMBASERVER is: S-1-5-21-3314183342-3289294326-2282427927




Please help. Very desperate.
