Hello All, I need some information about winbind, because I'm planning a migration of a Netware 5 (with your users) and a W2K Domain (with another users, separed of Netware) to SAMBA+LDAP. In a first moment, I'm planning to make the SAMBA (which is a substitute to the Netware) a W2K Domain member server, and use Winbind to allow W2K users to use the Linux machine. My question: if I use the winbind, I don't need to have local users. When I migrate it to LDAP, I will need to keep the filesystem permissions. Is there a way to copy the UID's that are mapped by winbind? The mapping is a constant? Case I remove a W2K user, your UID will be re-used, or is a RID variant? Regards, Fabiano Felix
