samba - May 2002 - samba 2.2.4 / winbind: UNIX user id of NT users has changed after system reboot

Dear Sirs.

I have here running samba 2.2.4 compiled on Redhat 7.2 with kernel 2.4.17 
with ACL support on EXT3 (http://acl.bestbits.at) and winbindd.

Winbind works. I can ssh as a NT4 user and use samba network shares as a NT 
user without username mapping. (no German special characters, no spaces in 
user name).


When I create new users winbindd uses the next free user id. When deleting 
a user that user is also deleted in winbindd (after updating BDCs).

But after system reboot the Windows NT users have other UNIX user ids than 
before the reboot.

When sorting the NT user names in alphabetical order the UNIX id of the NT 
users is also ascendig. It seems that winbind assigns the UNIX user id 
ascending when the NT user names are in alphatical order . So when you 
create new users i.e. "a.test", then after reboot the NT users that
come in
the alphabeth after the user "a.test" have different UNIX user ids.

Before reboot
# getent passwd
..
PULSAAR+a.test:x:10035:10000:testuser:/fileserver/homes/PULSAAR/a.test:/  
bin/bash
PULSAAR+Administrator:x:10001:10000::/fileserver/homes/PULSAAR/administr  
ator:/bin/bash
..

After grereboot
# getent passwd
..
PULSAAR+a.test:x:10000:10000:testuser:/fileserver/homes/PULSAAR/a.test:/  
bin/bash
PULSAAR+a.test12:x:10001:10000::/fileserver/homes/PULSAAR/a.test12:/bin/  
bash
PULSAAR+Administrator:x:10002:10000::/fileserver/homes/PULSAAR/administr  
ator:/bin/bash



This problems seem not to exist in winbind groups.
# getent group
PULSAAR+Admin:x:10003:
PULSAAR+Backup:x:10004:PULSAAR+Administrator
PULSAAR+Controlling:x:10005:PULSAAR+Administrator
PULSAAR+Domaenen-Benutzer:x:10002:PULSAAR+Administrator


Yours sincerely.
