I added in [global]  "username map", but it do not work.


[global]
     workgroup=WORKGROUP
     security=share
     username map = /etc/samba/users.map

     [bilder]
     path=/var/lib/export
#    force user=tommy
#    force group=users
     valid users=tommy
     write list=tommy

with "tommy = dih" in file "/etc/samba/users.map" (dih is user on linux 
client).

What can I do to map uid and gid to client?

With regards
Dietrich
