[Samba] Windows 2003 Active Directory and Group Access

Hi Alex,

Yes I have already tried this settings:

"winbind use default domain = yes"

and


"valid users = @AMATEC.LOCAL+GG_Entwicklung"

But this only works for windows 2000 Clients and not for Windows XP Clients.
As you have written before everything works without "winbind use default
domain = yes" but then a user has to login e.g. for ssh with
AMATEC+username.

I don't think it's a good idea to hack the pam module too, perhaps is there
another possibility - perhaps any of the developer team has a workaround?

Kind regards
Franz

Hello Franz,

You can try to set "winbind use default domain = yes" again and use as valid
users: "valid users = @AMATEC.LOCAL+GG_Entwicklung"

I've found in a faq the following:

Q: I tried to set valid users = @Engineers, but it does not work. My Samba
server
is an Active Directory Domain Member server. Has this been fixed now?
A: The use of this parameter has always required the full specification of
the Domain
account, for example, valid users = @"MEGANET2\Domain Admins".

You can always try if this work, while hacking pam_winbind.so seems not to
be a good idea to me.

Best regards,
Alex.

Hi,

thanks for your help - now it works :-))))))) But there is a new problem. We
log on to the linux machine for email and ssh and so on. So the new problem
is that a user is now AMATEC+testuser instead simple testuser (for the pam
module). But I think we can make a hack to the pam_winbind.so file to add
"AMATEC+" to the entered username (so a user has not to enter
AMATEC+testuser but only testuser). Or is there a better way?

Kind regards
