[Samba] sudden change GID number on DC

[L.P.H. van Belle]

Hai, 

 

I just noticed something strange with my group GID assignments. 

 

This happens on my  DC. 

 

I have my “Domain Admins”  “Domain Users” etc given a GID. 

(im using  ad backend )

 

Running 

getent group "domain admins" gives back. 

 

domain admins:x:3000008:administrator,admin

 

But this is fault..  that GID should be 10001 

 

Anyone noticed this also ? 

 

After installing the latest 4.2.8 sernet samba? 

I installed 4.2.8 on  5 Feb, before this didnt happen. 

 

On my member server its still ok.

 

getent group "Domain Admins"

domain admins:x:10001:admin,administrator

 

so something changed. 

Anyway, this is for me not a problem, but i what know what happend here or what changed in samba.

But it can explain why more people have problems with the groups and GIDs on the DC. 

 

 

Greetz,
