Hi all, Can anyone suggest some methods and tools to help troubleshoot a problem with SID's? I am using Samba 3.0.2a on RH9 joined to a W2K ADS "security = ads". I am trying to set NT ACL permissions on my shares, but after they are set and the Everyone group is removed, the users cannot connect to the share. With logging turned up, I can see access checks, but the user sid does not match the actual sid of the user so it fails and returns Access Denied. make_connection: connection to testdude denied due to security descriptor. The user's can connect via ip address, so I am thinking this is a kerberos problem, but I haven't had any luck fixing it after over 2 weeks of reading the HOWTO, searching the list, and testing. IE: se_access_check: requested access 0x00000001, for NT token with 7 entries and first sid S-1-5-21-3808495487-1692608230-4030097047-21036. The sid on the workstation is reported as: [User] "TESTLAB\testdude" S-1-5-21-1935655697-854245398-839522115-1133 Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for the great work!
