[Samba] Joining Samba 3.24 to 2003 ADS

Sounds like you have not setup your /etc/nsswitch.conf correctly.

Check and make sure you have something similar to this:

Passwd:	files winbind
shadow:	files winbind
Group:	files winbind

Usually if not setup users will not resolve through "getent passwd" getent
group"

Cheers,

Adrian Sender.

Hi,
Check that libnss is linked correctly.

cp ../samba/source/nsswitch/libnss_winbind.so /lib
ln -s /lib/libnss_winbind.so /lib/libnss_winbind.so.2
/sbin/ldconfig -v | grep winbind

Cheers,
Henrik
