I have been trying to figure out what this error is:

Jan 29 18:23:07 dc2 smbd[20729]: [2004/01/29 18:23:07, 0]
rpc_server/srv_util.c:get_domain_user_groups(371)
Jan 29 18:23:07 dc2 smbd[20729]:   get_domain_user_groups: primary gid of
user [barbara] is not a Domain group !
Jan 29 18:23:07 dc2 smbd[20729]:   get_domain_user_groups: You should fix
it, NT doesn't like that
Jan 29 18:23:08 dc2 smbd[20729]: [2004/01/29 18:23:08, 0]
rpc_server/srv_util.c:get_alias_user_groups(219)
Jan 29 18:23:08 dc2 smbd[20729]:   get_alias_user_groups: gid of user
barbara doesn't exist. Check your /etc/passwd and /etc/group files

I thought I fixed the error but it keeps coming back.  My only concern is
that it is slowing network access down.  Is this an error I should be
worried about?  I'm using LDAP as my backend so why Samba is checking the
/etc/passwd and /etc/group files is strange.  I have the nsswitch setup to
check "files ldap winbind".

Is this error due to the fact that Samba checks the files first, can't kind
the users, then goes onto ldap?

It's kind of annoying cuz I don't know if the error is a problem or not.

Any help would be appreciated.

Jason
