[Samba] Samba 3 member server connected to Samba 4 DC (using nslcd)

[Chris Alavoine]

Hi Marc,

I've had many many problems with Winbind and after a few weeks of dead-ends
I decided to switch to nslcd and everything started working very nicely, so
I haven't looked back.

I've just had a major success on getting getent passwd to work by adding
this to my nslcd.conf:

# users
map passwd uid sAMAccountName
map passwd gidNumber primaryGroupID
map passwd homeDirectory unixHomeDirectory

# groups
map group cn sAMAccountName
map    group  uniqueMember     member

This now lets me see all users and groups via getent. Just doing some more
testing now, but I think this may be fixed.

Typical, you spend all day on something, finally decided to post on samba
lists and then fix it 5 mins later :)

Thanks for the swift reply though!

Cheers,
c:)
