[Samba] Failed to create Administrators, Failed to create Users

Hi,

I have the same config as you. And the same problem. I'm trying to fix 
it since days now, without success. It seems linked to winbind and the 
IDMAP RID backend. It's working successfully, but I hate those messages 
in the log files.
I have 2 samba servers running the same versions (samba 3.0.24 running 
on Debian 4.0r1). One samba was installed 2 years ago and it is working, 
and the 2nd one has been installed this year and I've got these error 
messages.
I have seen differences in the GROUP MAPPING.
Have a look at this command :

tdbdump /var/lib/samba/group_mapping.tdb

and as well :

net groupmap list verbose

The differences between my 2 servers are linked to group memberships, 
and now I'm trying to figure out if I can fix things with this command :

net groupmap memberships

But it seems that the BUILTIN\ groups can't be created on systems 
running Winbind only (as ROLE_DOMAIN_MEMBER)

I'm going back to this ...

regards
Yvan Broccard
