Dear All, I have successfully compiled MIT krb5 and samba 3.0.28a under Solaris8. Joining an AD domain works fine and also the commands wbinfo -t, -g and -u list all of the users. getent passwd and getent group are also working. The problem now is that when i run the "group user" command it just stays there and doesn't display any users. This works fine under Linux (SLES9, RHEL4) but not under Solaris8. I really have no clue, but that is just one problem. The other big problem is that now i get kicked out of the login shell or telnet/ssh after a few minutes and when I login as a domain user and start a command like ls it gets put in the background immediatley. Any suggestions?

[Samba] Domain Member Server /home/user creation - help needed
For almost 10 years our school has been using samba as a PDC to provide a
network drive for each of our students,. Now I need to install a domain
member server (DMS) to share the load. I am running samba 3.0.28 on
Fedora 7 using the tdbsam backend on the PDC. I have successfully brought
up a samba DMS using winbind and the idmap_rid backend.
I want to have all new students use the DMS for their roaming profiles and
for their network drive. Upon first logon of a new user, a directory is
automatically created for the user in the profile share on the DMS.
However, I don?t know how to cause the home directory to be created on the
DMS for the network drive. On XP Pro, the user home share shows up on the
DMS, but is not accessible because the directory does not exist.
If at this point, I copy the roaming profile directory for the user (which
is empty) to the home directory, then the home directory is now present
with the proper ownership and the home drive is now usable by the user.
e.g. on the DMS, with userid ?mark?
cp ?a /var/samba/profiles/mark /home
The [homes] share on the DMS is
[homes]
Path = /home/%U
comment = Home Directories
browseable = no
writable = yes
available = yes
public = no
So my question is how can I get the home directory for a user created with
the proper ownership the first time the user signs in? Is there any kind
of script that can be invoked on the DMS? Is there any way winbind can
create the home directory when it creates the UID/GID for the user?
