I?ve setup a brand new Samba server ? 3.0.33 on RHEL 5. The access to shares is a bit erratic, specifically users who belong to a group which is different from their primary group. Using LDAP, Kerberos, AD. The /etc/nsswitch.conf is set to files ldap. Not using winbind at all. The below two users cant map the shares (GID is not primary GID) [root at samba]# getent passwd jane jane:*:3057:1108:jane:/home/jane:/bin/bash [root at samba]# getent passwd jim jim:*:3426:1108:jim:/home/jim:/bin/bash This user can map the share (the GID is the primary GID) [root at samba]# getent passwd danny danny:*:3041:3041:danny:/home/danny:/bin/bash [gusreedh at samba]# getent group 3041 danny:*:3041: [gusreedh at samba]# getent group 1108 core_dev::1108:jane,jim,eric,steven,core_dev2,core_dev3,elias,chip,douglas Also saving the files especially MS-office ones such as xls/doc are taking really long time > 30-40 seconds. Appreciate any ideas. Thanks, Ravi ?
