[Samba] Winbind seems to have hosed my roaming profiles
Winbind seems to have broke my roaming profiles. I have a 3.0.1Pre1 DC on RH AS 3.0 running with Win2000 SP4 clients logging in. Remote profiles worked well and then I added: winbind separator = + idmap uid = 10000-20000 winbind gid = 10000-20000 winbind enum users = yes winbind enum groups = yes template homedir = /home/win2000/%D/%U template shell = /bin/bash Added it to nsswitch.conf and started winbindd The next time I logged in on a client, I got the message that it couldn't create my profile on the DC. I remove the existing profile from /home/profiles/<username> expecting it would recreate it but got the same message. As soon as I commented out the above entries everything went back to normal. I'd heard that winbind usually makes things better. What's happening here??? Should I have made my samba and Linux users AFTER adding winbind? I'm still not sure winbine is applicable in my situation because I have NO other real MS Domain Controllers. Please advise... Thanks DSP (Reading up more on winbind)
