Hi,

I'm trying to get some Ubuntu8.04 clients to authenticate to an Ubuntu8.04 Samba domain controller.  Everyone is running Samba 3.0.28a.

Side question: should I upgrade to 3.2?  Keep in mind that means finding binaries for ubuntu or compiling from source for a server and 20 clients.  

Basically wbinfo -u and -g work, getent passwd works, getent group DOES NOT WORK.

My domain is called ORA and I've set up some test users,etc.  See the output of wbinfo and getent below.  Following the output of wbinfo is my smb.conf's for the server and client.

When my domain users login everything works except that there's no group name, only a gid.
in the log.winbind I get this:

[2008/08/01 22:11:26, 1] nsswitch/winbindd_group.c:fill_grent_mem(365)
  could not lookup membership for group sid S-1-5-21-2023487214-2483299788-1506694197-1009 in domain ORA (error: NT_STATUS_NO_SUCH_GROUP)
[2008/08/01 22:11:26, 0] nsswitch/winbindd_group.c:winbindd_getgrent(1110)
  could not lookup domain group ORA\bob3
