Hey all,
I have posted this question before but never seem to get a response:
I was wondering if anyone can help me with the question of groups and
trusted domains.
We have the setup of 2 AD Domains running in native 2003
(I don't know the specific trust setup as I am not the Admin for the windows
side)
Dom1
Dom2
I have the following working:
Log in to solaris, linux etc using dom1\username or dom2\username
Getent passwd shows both dom1\usernames and dom2\usernames
Getent group shows both dom1\groups and dom2\groups
However in dom2\gorup I have both dom1\user AND dom2\user
The getent group will only show the dom2\user
If I do a getent group dom1\group I see the groups and the dom1\users with
no problem (There are only dom1 users in all the groups)
What needs to be done to be able to ensure I can do getent group dom2\group
and see BOTH dom1\user and dom2\user
I don't believe the OS is important as I have the same on different version
of linux, solaris etc. And I have a variety of samba versions with the same
issue. I have updated one of the servers to 3.0.14a and still have no luck
understanding what the issue is.
I will be happy to give whatever log information is needed (although I am
not seeing
Currently my workaround to this issue is
Create a /etc/netgroup entry and add the dom1\user to the group then in
smb.conf I reference the netgroup group. This seems like double work since
I already have the dom1\users in the dom2\group and on the windows boxes
this works fine.
Thanks for any and all help that you can provide on this issue:
