hi - i am trying to get a fedora core 3 box to authenticate to a w2k3 ad server. the linux box is using the stock 3.0.9-1.fc3 samba rpm. everything works well, including the home directory mounts (pam_mount) except that users cannot resolve their own names - when they log in, they get: id: cannot find name for group ID xxxxxxxx id: cannot find name for group ID xxxxxxxx (but with real uid/gid). wbinfo -n <uname> returns the sid wbinfo -s <sid> returns the name in the form: domain\username 1 (why is the "1" there - is that a problem?) wbinfo -r <username> returns a couple of gids wbinfo -U <uid> returns "Could not convert uid xxxxxxxx to sid" winbind.log does not show any problems as far as i can see (just stuff about not being able to resolve local credentials) chmod <fname> <username> works for domain accounts, but ls -l just shows the uid rather than the name anybody have any clue as to what may be wrong? thanks john
