Hi, i've encountered a problem configuring the smb.conf... i must grant access i a share dir on a hp-ux server (11.11 with official HP samba 3.0.7 depot... maybe patch level to 3.0.14) i've write valid user = @group_name in [share_name] session of smb.conf We have just implemented the integration with the windows 2003 active directory domain for the validation using kerberos protocol... all work fine, but a group name (due to policy) is over 32 char... and, i've noticed that if i specify a group name length more than 32 char, samba don't grant access to the share... the group, of course, is present in /etc/group and smb.conf... we have try to cut off char and we have noticed this behavior... Exemple: valid user = @123456789012345678901234567890123 KO valid user = @12345678901234567890123456789012 OK This 'limitation' was resolved in some new release? Existe another way or workaround to solve the problem? thanks a lot Pierpaolo =======================================================CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE This message and its attachments (if any) may contain confidential, proprietary or legally privileged information and it is intended only for the use of the addressee named above.

This would be an HP-UX limitation. There's nothing in Samba that would truncate a group name or fail to lookup a name at 32 characters.
