Hello List

I'm running Samba 3.0.24,1 on a freebsd 6 server

I've joined the unix server to an active directory domain and set up PAM

I've shared directories and users can access them (provided they belong to
the correct group)

the problem is :
if I list the shared directory

mail# /usr/local/lib > ls -al /usr/local/www/www.dmsware.it/
total 6
drwxr-xr-x   3 root  wheel  512 Apr 27 16:04 .
drwxr-xr-x  10 root  wheel  512 May  6 18:44 ..
drwxrwxr-x   3 1002  1513   512 May  6 17:27 downloads

I would like to see 1513 as "domain users" group. WIth samba 3.0.14 I get
drwxr-xr-x   3 root  wheel  512 Apr 27 16:04 .
drwxr-xr-x  10 root  wheel  512 May  6 18:44 ..
drwxrwxr-x   3 user1  Domain Users   512 May  6 17:27 downloads

I've traced the problem back to a possibile misconfiguration of NSSWitch
with nss_winbind.so wich should be copied orlinked somewhere.... but faq and
tutorials are somewhat... vague !

I've a freebsd server and i've found four files
mail# /usr/local/lib > ls -al nss*
-r-xr-xr-x  2 root  wheel   18232 May  4 17:34 nss_winbind.so
-r-xr-xr-x  2 root  wheel   18232 May  4 17:34 nss_winbind.so.1
-r-xr-xr-x  2 root  wheel  744628 May  4 17:34 nss_wins.so
-r-xr-xr-x  2 root  wheel  744628 May  4 17:34 nss_wins.so.1

but NO libnss_winbind... which I found cited in many tutorials...

Does anybody knows about this problem/configuration ?

Thanks
Gianluca
