Hi all, I just installed a Suse Linux 9.2 with Samba 3.0.0923 I would like to make this new server a member server of my active directory domain I think I configured almost anything correctly: I succesfully joined the domain via LDAP with net ads join, I can browse user and groups via wbinfo -u and wbinfo -g I can browse user and groups via getent passwd and getent group I can also give file permissions whith chown FRAMEWEB+MyName . -R What I Cannot do is to use chgrp with domain name. I always got chgrp: invalid group name `frameweb+mygroup' If I run the winbindd demon with -i (interactive ) switch, I see group mygroup in domain FRAMEWEB does not exist moreover, after a little time I issued the succesfully command chown ... if I perform ls -la in that directory I am no more able to se the username, but only the associated sid (generated internally in the UID range) I did all the check recommended (net ads info) ( net ads status -UAdministrator) and everithing seems ok Could it be a bug in these release of samba boundled with Suse Linux 9.2 ? Coul be an idea to uninstall everything and download last stable version 3.0.14 source code and install that ? I read the book http://samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-Guide/unixclients.html and it speak a lot about suse linux... thanks in advance for any help Andrea Chi ricevesse questa mail per errore e' gentilmente pregato di cancellarla.
