Hi All: I followed all the instructions for activating winbind and it went thru but my getent etc are only showing users on the linux box. The only thing i'm not sure if i did correctly was to create the symbolic link for libnss_winbind.so.2 Anyone got winbind working on RH7.1?

It works on Redhat 7.1 against my NT4 server, you should have something that looks like this for the nsswitch module: $ ls -l /lib/libnss_winbind* /lib/libnss_winbind.so /lib/libnss_winbind.so.2 -> libnss_winbind.so If the symlink isn't there, you can create it with $ cd /lib $ ln -s libnss_winbind.so libnss_winbind.so.2 then just make sure that /etc/nsswitch.conf is configured correctly, for me it looks like: passwd: files winbind group: files winbind Winston Nimchan wrote:> > Hi All: > > I followed all the instructions for activating winbind and it went thru > but my getent etc are only showing users on the linux box.

Thanks. The problem was the symbolic link.
