I have Samba version 3.0.2a-3mdk with an LDAP backend. Works great but I can't seem to get user manager for domains to work with it.

Hi, I have setup samba 3.0.7 with LDAP and NetApps Filers as our file store.

Does the domain administrator SID always end with -1000? I.e., if the SID for the domain is: S-1-2-33-4444444444-555555555-6666666666 does this mean that the domain administrator's SID would be: S-1-2-33-4444444444-555555555-6666666666-1000 ?

Hello, I have 3 hdd (120 GB, 120 GB and 80 GB) mounted on /data1 , /data2 and /data3. All these drives must be shared via a public access with Samba.

It works perfectly for me and in many sites that

I confirm that Malte M?ller says.
