Here's the configuration:
OS: Solaris 10 11/08
OS Authentication: Sun Directory Server 5.x
Samba: v3.0.32 included with Solaris 10 11/08
Samba auth: Windows 2003R2 AD
Using a Windows XP client authenticated against AD mounting of home
directories works fine and I'm able to perform create/modify/delete
ops on files/directories in the home directory and files/directories
which are created have the proper uid/gid associated with the user.
If I try to modify the permissions for a file/directory from XP, samba
complains about not being able to map a SID to a uid/gid.
Windows 2003R2 AD has the RFC2307 schema preloaded. If I populate
user accounts with their respective uid/gid, will that resolve the
mapping error? Am I going to run into problems with winbind?
Are there other options?
Note that it is essential that LDAP and AD maintain consistent uid/gid
per user/group.
