[Samba] chown/chgrp for winbind users doesn`t work

Hello,

I have two Samba Domains and each trust each other (PDCs run 3.0.22). Also
I have a samba member server (3.0.24) that runs winbind. When I use wbinfo
I can see the user and groups of both domains. I also can chown/chgrp
files with users of the domain the server is member of. But I can`t
chown/chgrp with accounts of the trusted domain. chown doesn`t work at
all. chgrp works, but then only the gid (from winbind) is shown:


# chown "TRUSTDOM+muehlfeld" file.txt
chown: `TRUSTDOM+muehlfeld': invalid user

# chgrp "TRUSTDOM+group" file.txt
# ls -la file.txt
-rw-r--r--  1 root 10051 0 Mar  8 12:32 file.txt


I also have a Win2003r2 Member Server. When I add rights to a file for a
user of the trusted domain, I see the name. But when I close the window
and then open it again, the name of the user/group changed into the SID.


So I guess it`s a problem or misconfiguration from the two PDCs, and not
of the member servers.


This are my winbind settings:

        idmap backend = ldap:ldap://192.168.29.4
        idmap uid = 10000-20000
        idmap gid = 10000-20000
        winbind separator = +
        winbind enum users = yes
        winbind enum groups = yes
        template homedir = /home/%U
        template shell = /bin/false
        winbind nested groups = yes
        winbind cache time = 300
        winbind nss info = template
        winbind use default domain = yes
        winbind trusted domains only = yes


Any idea what could be wrong?


Also one more question: Any plans, when winbind on a PDC could handle
local users and from the trusted domains?


Best regards
