<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Hi, </font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Just downloaded the
latest SAMBA, and (after a couple of "learning experiences"
:-) it is sorta working on my home network. A laptop with win95, and a
server with RedHat 7.1 (Intel).</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">But there's this
one little problem, the GID for a recognised user is being set to an
unknown group. It looks like the GID is being set to be equal to the
UID, or it is being set to the user's *original* GID (which samba has cached
away somewhere). </font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">My user (pbabern) tries
to access a share on the samba server- pbabern can read/write OK in a directory
which is owned by pbabern, but cannot write in a directory that is *not* owned
by pbabern, even though UNIX group permissions let pbabern write when I try the
same write operation from the UNIX shell.</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">This is the
situation:</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">
- directory /mnt/d is owned by uid=indulis, gid=user, has rwxrwxr-x
permissions</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">
- user pbabern has primary group=user, but as a samba user cannot
create anything in directory /mnt/d (permissions error), but *can* create a file
in a directory owned by pbabern (but the file has the wrong gid).</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">
- user pbabern originally had a primary gid=501, but I deleted the
group and made a new group 502 (user), and made this pbabern's primary
group</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">
- when samba client pbabern creates a file in a directory where
pbabern is the owner, the gid is set to 501 (=uid=original primary
group)</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">I have smbd and nmbd
both started from xinetd.conf, and refreshed xinetd after each change (just to
be sure).</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Is this a bug, or am I
missing something? Does samba look anywhere outside of /etc/passwd and
/etc/group to figure out what GID should be set for a specific UID?
Was GID=501 stored away somewhere inside samba the first time user
pbabern accessed the share?</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">I have enclosed the
relevant bits of traces etc below, where the trace shows smbd setting the gid to
an invalid value of 501. Other configuration stuff too...</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Thanks!<br>
