Well, I had a look at the python bindings and the error handling was in shambles. I fixed libgpo/pygpo.c and I now get: gpos = ads.get_gpo_list(creds.get_username()) SystemError: Failed to get machine token for 'DC01$' (CN=DC01,OU=Domain Controllers,DC=rvx,DC=is) (the failing call is status = gp_get_machine_token(self->ads_ptr, frame, dn,

...nalyzed this and found that the cause is a call to getpwuid(uid) with the uid being that of the domain controller. "wbinfo --uid-info=3000074" works and returns information, but this library function fails. This is then propagated upwards as a memory error, because it is being called from getpwuid_alloc() which is a talloc variant. the api doesn't allow us to distinguish either form of error. Later, there is this code (in libgpo) new_token = create_local_nt_token(mem_ctx, &object_sid, false, num_token_sids, token_sids); ADS_ERROR_HAVE_NO_MEMORY(new_token); where the failure of create_loc...
