[Samba] group problem on NT4 domain

Hi,
 
Installed latest Samba3.0.2a on NT4 domain, security = domain and net rpc
join successfully.
 
everything work great, but group permission failed, error message is
"user_in_winbind_group_list: nametogid for group NTGROUP failed".  
 
smb.conf on shares as below:
====================omitted base configurations...
 
[shareA]
path = /public/shareA
valid users =  <mailto:'@NT\Domain> '@NT\Domain Users'
write list = NT\steven
 
 
the conf is simple but error occured.  No one can access to shareA, a login
prompted out for user/pass.  BTW, it has no problem at all if only use user
rather than group.  Please kindly help or advise, thankyou.
 
 
Best Regards,
Steven Tse

Do you have winbindd running?
Is /etc/nsswitch.conf configured to use winbind?

[Samba] group problem on NT4 domain

Yes, winbindd is running and nsswitch.conf is configured as:

passwd: file winbind
shadow: file
group: file winbind

smb.conf
======[global]
	workgroup = NTDOM
	server string = Central File Server
	security = DOMAIN
	auth methods = winbind
	password server = bga peh pbe_filpn
	client lanman auth = No
	client plaintext auth = No
	log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log
	min protocol = LANMAN1
	local master = No
	wins server = 192.168.100.9, 192.168.100.55
	get quota command = /usr/bin/quota
	set quota command = /usr/sbin/setquota
	idmap uid = 10000-20000
	idmap gid = 10000-20000
	template homedir = /public/home/%U
	template shell = /bin/bash
	winbind cache time = 5

[finance]
	comment = Finance Dept
	path = /public/finance
	valid users = '@NTDOM\Domain Users'
	write list = PBE\steven_tse
	force group = ntgroup
	create mask = 0666
	directory mask = 0777

I cannot access to shared folder "finance", it always prompt for user
login.
Please help, thankyou

Steve

[Samba] group problem on NT4 domain

Thankyou for the reply,

"getent passwd, getent group, wbinfo -u and wbinfo -g" are also
successfully
retrieved NTDOM user or group list,

removed all the highlighted, now the smb.conf:
===========[global]
	workgroup = NTDOM
	server string = Central File Server
	security = DOMAIN
	log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log
	wins server = 192.168.100.9, 192.168.100.55
	get quota command = /usr/bin/quota
	set quota command = /usr/sbin/setquota
	idmap uid = 10000-20000
	idmap gid = 10000-20000
	template homedir = /public/home/%U
	template shell = /bin/bash
	winbind cache time = 5

[finance]
	comment = Finance Dept
	path = /public/finance
	valid users = @"NTDOM\Domain Users"
	write list = NTDOM\steven_tse
	force group = ntgroup
	create mask = 0666
	directory mask = 0777

I still no luck to make it work, all clients computer can not access to
"finance" but prompt for login.  

result of id "NTDOM\steven_tse"
uid=10204(NTDOM\steven_tse) gid=10000 groups=10000,10001,10004

I tried to use valid users = @10000, then it works!!

What is the output of:

	getent passwd
	getent group

	wbinfo -u
	wbinfo -g

Get rid of "auth methods"

Why is it necessary to set "password server"? If possible remote this
too.

Neither of these should be needed.

The above 2 should not be needed either.

Try:

What do you get if you run as root on this server:

	id "PBE\steven_tse"

[Samba] group problem on NT4 domain

even I can use gid to make it work, but is it possible to use group name
rather than gid?

Thankyou
