Dear Everyone,
I am trying to use an OpenSuse 10.2 computer on a Windows 2000 domain
using winbind authentication (join to domain). I added a few lines to
the smb.conf for extracting sfu attributes, and my smb.conf looks like
this:
[global]
idmap backend = ad
idmap gid = 1000-100000
idmap uid = 1000-100000
winbind uid = 16777216-33554431
winbind gid = 16777216-33554431
password server = dell.umn.org.np
realm = UMN.ORG.NP
workgroup = HQ
security = ADS
template homedir = /home/%D/%U
template shell = /bin/bash
usershare allow guests = No
winbind refresh tickets = yes
winbind cache time = 3600
workgroup = HQ
winbind use default domain = yes
winbind enum users = Yes
winbind enum groups = Yes
winbind nested groups = Yes
winbind nss info = sfu
winbind offline logon = Yes
winbind use default domain = yes
debuglevel = 4
log level = 4
I was able to easily view users and groups on the domain, and the group
info would be extracted easily.
I recently applied available patches to the computer, because there were
some issues with cdrom access for domain users, and Ximian evolution
connection to Microsoft exchange that went away only on updating.
However, now I can see uids for users, but the gids are not getting
resolved. I am attaching sample output below:
opensuse:~ # id prajjwal
uid=10000(prajjwal) gid=10000
groups=10000,10032,10133,10002,10117
opensuse:~ # groups prajjwal
id: cannot find name for group ID 10000
10000 id: cannot find name for group ID 10032
10032 id: cannot find name for group ID 10133
10133 id: cannot find name for group ID 10002
10002 id: cannot find name for group ID 10117
10117
As samba-client and samba-winbind on the server were 3.0.23 even on
updating, I even tried manually downloading the latest rpms from the
opensuse ftp site and installing them. However, my problem still
remains. My installed samba packages are listed below:
opensuse:~ # rpm -qa|grep samba
kdebase3-samba-3.5.5-78
yast2-samba-client-2.14.4-3
yast2-samba-server-2.14.3-10
samba-client-3.0.24-12.1.55
samba-winbind-3.0.24-12.1.55
Extra information:
wbinfo -u and wbinfo -g both return proper domain user and group
listings. wbinfo -p also returns a successful result.
After doing getent group for a particular group, then that group can get
resolved. For example, continuing on the information provided above:
opensuse:~ # getent group 'Domain Users'
domain users:x:10000:guest
opensuse:~ # groups prajjwal
id prdomain users id: cannot find name for group ID 10032
10032 id: cannot find name for group ID 10133
10133 id: cannot find name for group ID 10002
10002 id: cannot find name for group ID 10117
10117
opensuse:~ # id prajjwal
uid=10000(prajjwal) gid=10000(domain users) groups=10000(domain
users),10032,10133,10002,10117
As you can see, now the uid 10000 is resolved as Domain users, while
other groups are still not resolved.
All the other linux computers on my domain are running fine: I have got
centos 4, fedora core 5, and opensuse 10.2 running.
Can anyone help me get this problem sorted out?
Thanks a lot,
Prajjwal
