Hi there, i got a problem trying configuring an Interdomain trust, this is my scenario (very simple one): domain domA (windows 2000 mixed mode) trusting domB (samba 3.0.23a-1) and vice-versa. some wbinfo: ale:~# wbinfo -m RGM5 ale:~# wbinfo --sequence RGM5 : DISCONNECTED BUILTIN : 1157982872 SYS2 : 1157982872 ale:~# wbinfo -t checking the trust secret via RPC calls succeeded ale:~# wbinfo -u Error looking up domain users ale:~# wbinfo -g BUILTIN\administrators BUILTIN\users ale:~# wbinfo -a RGM5\\publinetrgm%******* plaintext password authentication succeeded challenge/response password authentication succeeded (this seems to authorise a user of the trusted domain...) I joined the samba pdc to his domain (SYS2) and made the trust with net rpc trustdom establish SYS2 everything seems working fine since i can smbclien with a user of the trusted domain, the only thing that's not working is winbind, i can't map the trusted dom users to the unix users. I noticed that samba creates a unix account everytime i log into it with a user of the trusted dom, but how i can get winbind work?? this is my smb.conf #======================= Global Settings ====================== [global] netbios name = ALE workgroup = SYS2 os level = 64 preferred master = yes domain master = yes local master = yes domain logons = yes nt acl support = yes logon path logon drive = H: logon home = \\ale\%U logon script = logon.bat ##### Add/Remove user scripts ##### add user script = /usr/sbin/useradd -m %u delete user script = /usr/sbin/userdel -r %u add group script = /usr/sbin/groupadd %g delete group script = /usr/sbin/groupdel %g add user to group script = /usr/sbin/groupmod -A %u %g delete user from group script = /usr/sbin/groupmod -R %u %g add machine script = /usr/sbin/useradd -s /bin/false -d /var/lib/nobody %u #### WINBINDD configuration ##### idmap uid = 10000-20000 idmap gid = 10000-20000 winbind enum users = yes winbind enum groups = yes winbind cache time = 30 winbind use default domain = Yes winbind trusted domains only = Yes winbind nested groups = Yes ## Browsing/Identification ### # Change this to the workgroup/NT-domain name your Samba server will part of # server string is the equivalent of the NT Description field server string = PDC Sys2 # Windows Internet Name Serving Support Section: # WINS Support - Tells the NMBD component of Samba to enable its WINS Server ; wins support = yes # WINS Server - Tells the NMBD components of Samba to be a WINS Client # Note: Samba can be either a WINS Server, or a WINS Client, but NOT both wins server = 192.168.92.205 192.168.92.206 # This will prevent nmbd to search for NetBIOS names through DNS. dns proxy = yes # What naming service and in what order should we use to resolve host names # to IP addresses ; name resolve order = lmhosts host wins bcast remote announce = 192.168.92.205 remote browse sync = 192.168.92.205 wins proxy = yes #### Debugging/Accounting #### # This tells Samba to use a separate log file for each machine # that connects log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m #log level = 3 # Put a capping on the size of the log files (in Kb). max log size = 1000 # If you want Samba to only log through syslog then set the following # parameter to 'yes'. ; syslog only = no # We want Samba to log a minimum amount of information to syslog.
