Hi All,
I am currently in the middle of setting up a samba server to provide file
and print services within an NT Domain. I have samba 2.2.7 running on
redhat 8
I have a problem with the output of the getent command. The out put of this
command appears corrupted, and I am not sure if this is affecting the the
behaviour of how users connect.
wbinfo -u and wbinfo -g appear to be functioning ok.
Here is the the last few lines of output from getent passwd:
nfsnobody:x:65534:65534:Anonymous NFS User:/var/lib/nfs:/sbin/nologin
pcap:x:77:77::/var/arpwatch:/sbin/nologin
xfs:x:43:43:X Font Server:/etc/X11/fs:/sbin/nologin
named:x:25:25:Named:/var/named:/sbin/nologin
apache:x:48:48:Apache:/var/www:/sbin/nologin
zutenis:x:500:500::/home/zutenis:/bin/bash
?RESDOM\Administrator::0:1000:?::
::0:1001:?::
::0:1002:?::
::0:1003:?::
::0:1004:?::
::0:1005:?::
::0:1006:?::
As you can see the the unix entries are ok, but the NT Domain entries do
seem to be corrupted. getent group also seems to be similarily affected.
Output of wbinfo -u shows:
[root@vmlinux1 samba]# wbinfo -u
MASTERDOM\Administrator
MASTERDOM\Guest
MASTERDOM\master
RESDOM\Administrator
RESDOM\Guest
RESDOM\mnewman
RESDOM\test
RESDOM\zutenis
[root@vmlinux1 samba]#
This output seems correct.
winbind seems ok . I have changed /etc/nsswitch.conf to use winbind. s
Any ideas ?
Best Regards,
Peter Z
