Hi, first I like to thank the samba team for making it possible to keep the UID's consistant across multiple machine. I've just got a quick question about my winbind implementation. I'm running 3.0.9 on fedora core 2, using my AD for authentication via winbind. When I run 'getent passwd' or 'wbinfo -u' I get the computer names from AD as well as the usernames. (now the usernames are lowercased, I think that was a good idea BTW) But when I run 'getent group' or 'wbinfo -g' all I get is the groups from AD (as well as locally). Is this supposed to happen or have I set it up wrong? thanks, -tom

[Samba] getent passwd and wbinfo -u returns machine names too

Sounds right to me. Is the question whether or not the machine accounts should show up in the user list ? cheers, jerry - --------------------------------------------------------------------- Alleviating the pain of Windows(tm) ------- http://www.samba.org GnuPG Key ----- http://www.plainjoe.org/gpg_public.asc "If we're adding to the noise, turn off this song"--Switchfoot (2003) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFBreOzIR7qMdg1EfYRAnyxAKCIa/C704plzXO9tXXUImDmjzvBkACg13ZA HCLxnd807fdqGu1B3YFHqCw=yrnj -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
Apparently Analagous Threads
- wbinfo -u lists ADS users without domain, getent passwd returns only local users
- getent passwd & wbinfo -u not working
- the winbind problem, 'wbinfo -u' have the user but 'getent passwd' haven't the user
- wbinfo -u works, getent passwd doesn't (samba 3.0.22 and 3.0.23rc1)
- Can only connect after running 'wbinfo -u' or 'getent passwd', and then only for a few minutes
