i stumble into the following prob.. got 302 - mysql3 - rh9 i have aprox 1200 users, and 1190 are domain users.. i got like 5 users, who should be mapped into domain user mapped into domain admin ??? in the /etc/passwd and /etc/group files, the are mapped in to domain user group, and NOT in the domain admin group.. (so this would be fine..) in the mysql-db, the group sid- is set to the same sid of the domain users (checked with net group map) still when fireing up usermanager (nt4) and checking the domain admin group, the users apair as domain admin.. ??? as soon as i change the user-sid, the user dissapair from the domain admin group, and finaly sit's in the right group..? (the way it should be) annyone got a clue where it goes wrong ?? don't wanna check everytime i make a user, if he/she is in the right group or not.. l8r --------------------------------------------- Collen Blijenberg (Systeem/Netwerk Beheerder) Montessori Lyceum Herman Jordan Zeist
