Hi all, I've scoured the net looking for a solution but to no avail. net groupmap list returns Domain Admins (S-############........) -> Domain Admins I would rather map Domain Admins to my root unix group. net groupmap modify ntgroup="Domain Admins" unixgroupreturns type=d returns an error; Could not update group database. If I delete via; net groupmap delete "Domain Admins" and then net groupmap add ntgroup="Domain Admins unixgroup=root rid=512 type=d I get; adding entry for group Domain Admins failed! Any and I mean any feedback is greatly appreciated. - Brian

[Samba] net groupmap woes - solved + root in domain admins solved
Hi all, So I read in the Samba docs where in order to map a unix group with a windows group (when using LDAP backend), that unixgroup must exist in the LDAP db even though it already exists in /etc/group. So I added the unix group of root to my LDAP db via ldapadd and using an ldif file with the desired values. I removed the group mapping via net groupmap delete "Domain Admins" as net groupmap modify didn't work and added the mapping of Domain Admins to root and all is well. I had to unjoin/rejoin the domain so that the root login worked as an Administrator on the XP box but all is well. - Brian On May 27, 2009, at 7:06 PM, Brian Krusic wrote:> Hi all, > > I've scoured the net looking for a solution but to no avail. > > net groupmap list returns > > Domain Admins (S-############........) -> Domain Admins > > I would rather map Domain Admins to my root unix group. > > net groupmap modify ntgroup="Domain Admins" unixgroupreturns type=d > > returns an error; > > Could not update group database. > > If I delete via; > > net groupmap delete "Domain Admins" and then > > net groupmap add ntgroup="Domain Admins unixgroup=root rid=512 type=d > > I get; > > adding entry for group Domain Admins failed! > > Any and I mean any feedback is greatly appreciated. > > > - Brian > > -- > To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the > instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
