Hi everyone, I have an ubuntu server 9.10 as server and fedora 11 as client and I have installed and configured samba 3.4.0 on ubuntu and samba 3.4.7-0.50.fc11 on fedora, and openldap smbldap-tools and ldapscript. My problems are related to UID numbers ( at least I think so). muratcan, muratcan2, muratcan3 has been created by ldapscript and on server side there is written UID numbers but on client side, names are written instead. The other users like murat murat2 murat3 and so has been created by smbldap-useradd , on server side as owner there is written names of the users but on client side vice-versa. I can log in with those users but I don't have any write access. Only muratcan2 and muratcan3 work exactly like I want. I could create all my users with ldapadduser command but I want to find out what is going wrong.
