The problem is that we have decided to change uid and gid mapping range, but changing smb.conf accordingly didn't help. We use ldap as backend. After deleting all idmap entries in ldap nothing changed. If we disable winbindd caching with -n switch we receive desired effect - users get mapped to new uids and gids. Restarting winbindd without -n reverts everything back - users are mapped to old id's. Stoping winbind, removing winbind_cache.tdb file and starting winbind doesn't solve the issue. Liutauras -------------------------------------------- Whenever I want a clean start I nuke the entire /var/lib/samba directory and restart samba, and let samba repopulate everything automatically. This was after many hours of scouring through the .tdb documentation which is outdated within a couple of months of being published, and just deciding to be inelegant about it. You may just need to remove all winbindd* files (like winbindd_idmap.tdb). Make a backup beforehand of course. -=Andrew -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba |
