similar to: Duplicate entries in winbindd_idmap.tdb

Hello list, I want to migrate from samba 3.0.14a to 3.0.2* . Now my question ; is it possible to keep the winbindd_idmap.tdb with new installation, because keeping that relations is a __MUST__ , otherwise i would have to run some unix scripts over the user directories to fix uids and gids of them. Thanks in advance for your hints. kind regards martin schreiber

Is there a tool to edit the idmap to cleanup old entries? I have entries in there that aren't needed anymore and wanted to delete the files and cleanup the user info. Thanks, Dan -- =========================== Daniel Wittenberg Senior Unix Admin University of Iowa - ITS

hi i recently deleted the idmap file winbindd_idmap.tdb (i have a backup ;) ), because it contained invalid mapping credentials my question: how can i create a new mapping_db, where new mappings are stored? which daemon creates this mapping_db, if it's not present? is it possible at all? thx&greez -- "Matrix - more than a vision"

We're using s. 2.2.8a in conjunction with a win2k dc. For uid/gid-mapping we use winbindd. Now we plan the migration to samba 3. We have about 100 Users and i don't want to rebuild the idmaps by hand. Is it possible to move the winbindd_idmap.tdb to the ldap idmap backend? -- +++ GMX - die erste Adresse f?r Mail, Message, More +++ Neu: Preissenkung f?r MMS und FreeMMS!

Hi, All >From the winbindd man page, there should be winbindd_idmap.tdb to store the sid/uid/gid mapping. But in my setup, i can't find it. I can only see winbindd_cache.tdb. Can you tell me how to generate winbindd_idmap.tdb? --smb.conf-- [global] idmap uid = 10000-1000000 idmap gid = 10000-1000000 idmap backend = rid winbind enum users = no winbind enum groups = no winbind

Hello all, right now I am using Samba 3.0.33 on Centos 5.6. The users need to access the files from Linux and from Windows so I maintain the Linux users in nis and the Windows users in AD. Samba is AD integrated. I am using an custom python script that collects some data from nis and from winbindd_idmap.tdb, creates a new file and imports it into winbindd_idmap.tdb. This works remarkably well.

Hello list, Is there a possibility to add entries to the winbindd_idmap.tdb manually? I know I can use tdbdump to see the entries, but is there a chance to modify? My problem is I have to map some uid to some Windows SID without using LDAP. On the other hand new user not having any uid in linux should map to the range of uid I defind by using idmap uid = 10000-20000 2nd Question: Is it

Hi Folks, I am experiencing some problems with samba 3.0.20 which I can not solve on my own. We have updated from samba 3.0.10 to samba 3.0.20, but I am not sure when the problems started. We had a problem with idmap - I had hoped to solve - before. Whenever we rebooted the server, all of the ACLs got jumbled up. I thought that our winbindd_idmap.tdb somehow got broken. I re-created it, but
