We have two domain controllers, one parent(DOMAIN.COM) and one child(
CHILD.DOMAIN.COM). When two domain controllers are up "getent group"
returns group names correctly. But when child domain controller is down
"getent group" returns empty. My samba version is "3.6.22". I have added my
smb.conf I couldn't find any parameters affecting this problem. Am I
missing something in smb.conf? Or is there a workaround to solve this
problem?
smb.conf
-------------------------------
[global]
netbios name = BUILD2
realm = DOMAIN.COM
workgroup = DOMAIN
security = ads

log file = /var/log/samba.log
ldap ssl = no
idmap uid = 10000-20000
idmap gid = 10000-20000
winbind separator = /
winbind enum users = yes
winbind enum groups = yes
winbind use default domain = yes
domain master = no
local master = no
preferred master = no
template shell = /sbin/nologin
getwd cache = yes
winbind cache time = 3000
ldap connection timeout = 10
