I think I answer more questions than I ask here, but now it's my turn - I
can't seem to figure out what I should change here, and it don't make no
sense to me .
I have a samba fileserver. I am not using winbind. I am using NIS for
UID/GID lookup. I am using AD via Kerberos for authentication. Also I used
"net join" so it's all very well integrated with AD. Normal
(non-root)
users can simply browse to \\filer <file:///\\filer> and they're
automatically authenticated, and all the umasks and UID/GID are handled
correctly. However -
If Administrator tries to browse to \\filer <file:///\\filer> , then it
prompts for username and pass. I enter any combination of "root" or
"administrator" or "DOMAIN\username" or
"username@domain" and it will never
authenticate as administrator - only normal users can connect. While trying
to figure it out, I went as far as assigning a new UID (not zero) to the
"administrator" user, to make the administrator really remarkably
similar to
a normal user, and still no luck.
I also checked . I have not set anything for "invalid users" or
"valid
users"
Can't think of anything else to try .
Any suggestions?
