samba - Sep 2002 - Error: "account name and security id mapping was not done" workaround I found

Hello, 

its my first time to post here. 

Currently working on 2.2.5 w/spoolss patch from ftp. It runs as PDC with
LDAP on eDir8.6.2.

Recently had a problem with the "account name and security id mapping
was not done" while joining w2k. After going through archives etc, could
not find resolution. Spent 2 weeks full and reached a point were I
accidentally found a fix. At least it worked for me.

I had "hide local user = yes" to hide the Unix local users.. I
commented
this out and bingo it worked. I had done several other changes, which i
cannot recall all of them.. 

Just wanted to share my experience.

thanks
mjn

This would make sense to me.  Good catch :-)
