[Samba] chown DOMAIN+mylogin /dir fails (Please help)

[David Shapiro]

When I tried to run the commands you suggested, I got the following:
 
 lsuser -R WINBIND ALL
Invalid -R option "WINBIND"
 

Usage: lsuser [-R load_module] [ -c | -f ] [ -a attr attr ... ] { "ALL"
| user1,user2 ... }

The WINBIND entry that I copied from the nsswitch directory after the
"make install" is in /usr/lib/security.  Why does it not think this is a
valid module?

Closest you're going to get is lsuser -R <load_module>
lsuser -R NIS ALL
lsuser -R LDAP ALL
lsuser -R WINBIND ALL

and of course lsgroup -R <load_module>

Authonly means it's not capable of supplying any user information.
I don't know that's true anymore.

Look in source/nsswitch/winbind_nss_aix.c
Available methods are at the end of the file.
Not all methods are implemented, and not all methods implemented
return a valid answere.
