Greetings list, Have a situation that doesn't fail but with inconsistent results: With a Samba 3.5.4 running as AD member, and map an AD user into a local user on Samba server, configurations are like below: smb.conf: username map = /usermap.txt usermap.txt: foo = MYDOM\bar Then try to access AD user bar's home directory via 1) smbclient //localhost/bar -U bar%<passwd> 2) smbclient //localhost/foo -U bar%<passwd> 3) smbclient //localhost/homes -U bar%<passwd> Guess what? 1) and 2) work well, I can get into home directory and mkdir and everything. Against 3) however, I could still log in, but when I try 'ls' I get these: do_list: [\*] NT_STATUS_OBJECT_PATH_NOT_FOUND Error in dskattr: NT_STATUS_OBJECT_PATH_NOT_FOUND Bacially I can't do nothing via 3), only 'pwd' shows "Current directory is \\localhost\homes\", seems Samba succeeded to authenticate user but failed to resolve into the correct home directory. So what's big deal you might say, 1) and 2) still work fine. True, but this bothers me because, hmm quite frankly, it bothers my boss and my customer. So, could someone help me out here? And a quick question #2, can I map a local user into another local user? Both users are created on the Samba server. How? Thanks -David
