Hi, We have a samba member server for a fileserver that is running Ubuntu 8.04. We are using winbind and AD to do the authentication. When users save files from their Windows XP workstations to the samba share the files are created with owners/groups as the Linux UIDs instead of the AD usernames/groups. Is there anyway to change the behavious so it writes the AD usernames. We are using id map UID and GID. Thanks for the help.
