I am unable to get a user into the -512 primary group SID. The user
originally went into -513, though I don't know why. Now I cannot get it
moved. I am able to add a different user to -512, so that part works.
1. pdbedit -r -G <SID>-512 -u <username> does not seem to change
anything, at least not as reported by pdbedit -Lv.
2. I did a complete uninstall of all the samba and ntfs packages,
deleted /etc/samba, /var/log/samba, and /usr/bin/tdbbackup, then
reinstalled.
3. net goupmap list was then empty.
4. After a net groupmap add rid=512 ntgroup="Domain Admins"
unixgroup=<unix group>, net groupmap list showed only the -512 group.
5. pdbedit getlocalsid returned the new SID
6. Entered pdbedit -a -U <SID>-500 -G <SID>-512 -u <user>
7. pdbedit -Lv shows the user in -513 still, even though I have not
even recreated that group....
So, there is clearly a cache issue here, but I can't find the file that
needs to get deleted. If anyone has some suggestions, I'd be appreciative.
