Hi,
I have a ClearOS 7.8 system which is running 
samba-4.10.4-11.el7_8.x86_64, and it upgraded to this just over a week 
ago (probably not relevant). A couple of days ago all the group shares 
failed. I discovered that if I switched them to the built-in group 
"allusers" the share worked fine. It fails for any user-defined group 
but it used to work. Samba is running as a PDC and the configs, 
including one share are:

    [root at server ~]# testparm -s
    Load smb config files from /etc/samba/smb.conf
    NOTE: Service profiles is flagged unavailable.
    Loaded services file OK.
    'winbind separator = +' might cause problems with group membership.

    Server role: ROLE_DOMAIN_PDC

If I try using smbclient I get:

    [root at server shares]# smbclient //localhost/test -c 'ls' -U clearcenter
    Enter SHA\clearcenter's password:

If I change the valid users to the "allusers" group and change the 
folder permissions, it works fine.

I get:

    [root at server ~]# wbinfo --group-info='staff'
    failed to call wbcGetgrnam: WBC_ERR_DOMAIN_NOT_FOUND
    Could not get info for group staff


    [root at server ~]# wbinfo --group-info='allusers'

One of the Samba logs goes:

    [2020/07/16 05:29:48.583319,  1]
    ../../source3/smbd/service.c:359(create_connection_session_info)
       create_connection_session_info: user 'clearcenter' (from session
    setup) not permitted to access this share (test)


I notice the messages log gives:

    Jul 16 04:34:28 server winbindd[21471]: [2020/07/16
    04:34:28.069299,  0]
    ../../source3/winbindd/idmap_ldap.c:85(get_credentials)
    Jul 16 04:34:28 server winbindd[21471]:  get_credentials: Unable to
    fetch auth credentials for cn=manager,ou=Internal,dc=sha,dc=lan in *


I have tried clearing the winbindd_cache.tdb and gencache.tdb but am 
wary of clearing anything else without instruction.

Please can you help me?

Thanks,

Nick
