I have an existing PDC which I am attempting to move across to a new server. On the new server, I'm having trouble with idmap (using an LDAP backend) and trusted domains. The smb.conf file is the same on both servers. My idmap & winbind parameters are as follows: ldap idmap suffix = ou=idmap idmap backend = ldap:ldap://127.0.0.1 idmap uid = 10000-29000 idmap gid = 10000-29000 winbind use default domain = yes winbind enum users = yes winbind enum groups = yes On the new box, 'wbinfo -t' suceeds and I can list users and groups on the foreign domain using 'wbinfo -u' and 'wbinfo -g'. 'net rpc trustdom list' lists the trusted domain. Comparing the winbind debug logs of the existing and new PDC, I have discovered that the cruical difference appears to be the following line (which is missing on the new PDC) "SID S-1-5-21-15318837-110984162-118601546-6958 is being handled by default domain" On the new server I get: ------------------------ [ 3008]: lookupsid S-1-5-21-15318837-110984162-118601546-6958 refresh_sequence_number: IIST time ok refresh_sequence_number: IIST seq number is now 60700 centry_expired: Key U/S-1-5-21-15318837-110984162-118601546-6958 for domain IIST is good. wcache_fetch: returning entry U/S-1-5-21-15318837-110984162-118601546-6958 for domain IIST query_user: [Cached] - cached info for domain IIST status: NT_STATUS_OK Storing response for pid 3030, len 3240 Destroying timed event 99b8b28 "async_request_timeout" Retrieving response for pid 3030 timed_events_timeout: 215/946559 Added timed event "async_request_timeout": 99b8b28 timed_events_timeout: 215/946536 child daemon request 48 process_request: request fn DUAL_SID2UID [ 3008]: sid to uid S-1-5-21-15318837-110984162-118601546-6958 idmap_sid_to_uid: sid = [S-1-5-21-15318837-110984162-118601546-6958] Query backends to map sids->ids Could not find idmap backend for SID S-1-5-21-15318837-110984162-118601546-6958Adding cache entry with key IDMAP/SID/S-1-5-21-15318837-110984162-118601546-6958; value 1198915597/IDMAP/NEGATIVE and timeout = Sat Dec 29 21:06:37 2007 (120 seconds ahead) sid [S-1-5-21-15318837-110984162-118601546-6958] not mapped to an uid [2,1,2683630] Storing response for pid 3021, len 3240 Destroying timed event 99b8b28 "async_request_timeout" Retrieving response for pid 3021 sid2uid returned an error Could not query uid for user IIST\prynhart On the existing (working) server I get: --------------------------------------- idmap_sid_to_uid: sid = [S-1-5-21-15318837-110984162-118601546-6958] Cache entry with key IDMAP/SID/S-1-5-21-15318837-110984162-118601546-6958 couldn't be found Query backends to map sids->ids SID S-1-5-21-15318837-110984162-118601546-6958 is being handled by default domain Query ids from domain default domain Filter: [(&(objectClass=sambaIdmapEntry)(sambaSID=S-1-5-21-15318837-110984162-118601546-6958))] smbldap_search_ext: base => [ou=idmap,dc=ist,dc=massey,dc=ac,dc=nz], filter => [(&(objectClass=sambaIdmapEntry)(sambaSID=S-1-5-21-15318837-110984162-118601546-6958))], scope => [2] NO SIDs found Search of the id pool (filter: (objectClass=sambaUnixIdPool)) smbldap_search_ext: base => [ou=idmap,dc=ist,dc=massey,dc=ac,dc=nz], filter => [(objectClass=sambaUnixIdPool)], scope => [2] Try to atomically increment the id (10734 -> 10735) smbldap_modify: dn => [ou=idmap,dc=ist,dc=massey,dc=ac,dc=nz] Setting mapping: S-1-5-21-15318837-110984162-118601546-6958 <-> UID 10734 smbldap_make_mod: adding attribute |uidNumber| value |10734| smbldap_make_mod: adding attribute |sambaSID| value |S-1-5-21-15318837-110984162-118601546-6958| Set DN sambaSID=S-1-5-21-15318837-110984162-118601546-6958,ou=idmap,dc=ist,dc=massey,dc=ac,dc=nz (S-1-5-21-15318837-110984162-118601546-6958 -> 10734) smbldap_add: dn => [sambaSID=S-1-5-21-15318837-110984162-118601546-6958,ou=idmap,dc=ist,dc=massey,dc=ac,dc=nz] ldap_set_mapping: Successfully created mapping from S-1-5-21-15318837-110984162-118601546-6958 to 10734 [uidNumber] Adding cache entry with key IDMAP/SID/S-1-5-21-15318837-110984162-118601546-6958; value 1199090322/IDMAP/UID/10734 and timeout = Mon Dec 31 21:38:42 2007 (900 seconds ahead) And the authentication suceeds. net getlocalsid gives the correct SID on the new server. Could anyone please advise/assist ? Thank you, Patrick
