[Samba] RE: Incorrect handling of group permissions

[Peter Trifonov]

Hello everyone,

I have raised this question some time ago, but the solution still was not
found.
 
The FreeBSD 6.1 server is a member of ADS domain. There is a 
directory named test with write permissions granted to user 
bill and group DOMAINNAME/algocod: 
 
 #ls -al /tmp
drwxrwx---   2 bill    DOMAINNAME/algocod     512 Jul 24 14:16 test
 
 
 bill is a user registered in domain DOMAINNAME, but not a 
 member of algocod group. He is able to read and write to and 
 from directory test. But the user jim, who is a member of 
 DOMAINNAME/algocod, cannot get access to it. 
 
 log.winbindd contains a lot of messages like
 [2006/07/24 15:12:19, 0] nsswitch/winbindd.c:request_len_recv(517)
   request_len_recv: Invalid request size received: 1836
 
 
 This problem appeared after upgrading from samba-3.0.22 to 
samba-3.0.23_1 (from FreeBSD ports collection) and 3.0.23a. 
 
Please let me know if anyone has any idea on how to solve 
this problem.

 
 
With best regards,
P. Trifonov
