[Samba] Problems resolving most users with winbind and AD/SFU (Resolved?)
Problem solved. Sort-of. I just don't know why the solution works. Here's what I found... First, I tried updating SFU 3.5 with the following hotfixes: 913030, 886655, 887531, 932143, 883520, 894186, 931930, 892561, 896428, 888993, 932143, and 939778. No change. Second, I used ADSI Edit from the Win2k support tools to compare side-by-side a working account with a "Could not get info for user ..." account. All AD fields were identical, with the exception of fields expected to be different like name, UID, etc. ADSI Edit also showed nothing out of ordinary in the Schema, groups, etc. Third, I checked the NIS server settings on the SFU side using "ypcat -k -d MYDOM passwd" & group. All accounts were visible with nothing of serious note. Last, I checked various groups for membership. I found that the accounts that resolved belonged to various BUILTIN groups on the AD server. I added a test account to the BUILTIN\Administrators and BUILTIN\Backup Users groups, and in a few minutes the test account started working in winbind. I added another account, and within an hour it was also accessible from winbind. I removed these tests from both BUILTIN groups and they remained functional in winbind. I added all accounts to these BUILTIN groups, and in an hour every account was functional in winbind. I went back in and removed all accounts that shouldn't belong to those groups and they still remained usable by winbind. What the heck? I have no clue what hidden flag got enabled on these accounts to make them work just by temporarily passing them through the BUILTIN groups. On one of the Samba fileservers I had not even performed the createbuiltingroups step to make these groups accesible. The BUILTIN\Users group was already populated with the "Domain Users" security group, of which all accounts were already members of. I've seen a few other posts from folks having problems AD user accounts from winbind. I'm wondering if this same band-aid fix might also work in their situations.
