Hello all! Can someone please help? I have a question that is bugging me. I am running a production RedHat EL3 machine for about a year now with Samba version 3.0.9-1.3E.2 My personal user account stopped working two days ago. I initially thought my password expired, so I reset it in AD. But I can log onto my win2k box without issue, but not into my linux file server. I checked to see if my machine had been cracked and no all is ok. In summary: My active directory account was not deleted, moved, or edited at any point around the time of this incident. Winbind no longer recognizes my linux UID to my SID. Tests - assuming user is jdoe and AD Domain is AD_DOM: wbinfo -a jdoe%password completes with success. wbinfo -n jdoe completes with success and reports "S-1-5-21-1708537768-776561741-1177238915-1127 User (1)" wbinfo -s S-1-5-21-1708537768-776561741-1177238915-1127 completes with success and reports "AD_DOM+JDoe 1" wbinfo -S S-1-5-21-1708537768-776561741-1177238915-1127 fails and reports "Could not convert sid S-1-5-21-1708537768-776561741-1177238915-1127 to uid" wbinfo -u|grep jdoe reports nothing and confirms my suspicions. So I have lost the database entry for my userid to sid. I attempted to recreate the user using wbinfo -c jdoe, but while the command line reported "Generated user with RID 3000" I am still not able to be seen as a valid account on the system. I am assuming that I would need to reenter my uid -> sid mapping into the database. How can I go about this? I know my old uid was 1001. So I am at a loss to my next steps. Could you please advise. Thank you ever so much. Cheers, Peter.
