[Samba] Couldn't find group @XXXX although group exists 3.01014

[Stefan Sabolowitsch]

Hi List,

Have here an interesting problem which i do not understand.

OS = RHEL 4 Clone
Samba = 3.01014

Although there are the groups, Samba announces the following error message.

Couldn't find group @XXXX

That happens with all later generated groups.
Are there here possibly problems with GID?

Does someone have an idea?

Thanks for each assistance

Stefan

Administrator works, however starting from smbusers group gives it these
problems.
