Group mappings should be persistent in either the local TDB file or the LDAP backend, depending on how you are configuring your machine. There are some group mappings that you must have. I have found that I can copy a TBD file for group mapping between machines BUT your group mapping requirements may be a little different for a domain controller vs a member server. It is probably safer to reenter the commands on the other machines. The member server may need the local "Administrators" and "Users" groups defined (see below) that I don't think you need on the domain controllers. The rid values for these well known groups is defined by Microsoft and available in the Samba docn. e.g net groupmap add ntgroup="Domain Admins" unixgroup=10512 rid=512 net groupmap add ntgroup="Domain Users" unixgroup=10513 rid=513 net groupmap add ntgroup="Domain Guests" unixgroup=10514 rid=514 net groupmap add ntgroup="Domain Controllers" unixgroup=10516 rid=516 net groupmap add ntgroup="Domain Computers" unixgroup=10515 rid=515 net groupmap add ntgroup="Administrators" unixgroup=10544 rid=544 type=local net groupmap add ntgroup="Users" unixgroup=10545 rid=545 type=local net groupmap add ntgroup="Guests" unixgroup=nobody rid=546 type=local -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba

Still there are some confusion: Do I need to specify the uid of the Unix user? I think name should also work. Let "Domain Admins" SID 512 is mapped with unix group gid 10234. If, I change group permission on a file to "Domain Admins", what gid value will be assigned to that file? Will it be 10512 or 10234? -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba

You must use the predefined RID (e.g. 512) - your local unix GID can be whatever. (10512, 9223, smb_dom_admins, FunGroup1 etc.) I think you will make fewer errors it the unix GID is either the same as the RID (e.g. if RID's are 512 and 513 the GID's are 512 and 513) or at lease there is some obvious pattern (e.g. RID's 512 and 513 map to GID's 10512 and 10513, if you already the the 500 block of Unix GID's used for something else) On the unix level, the group perms shown will be that of the GID not the RID. So if RID 512 maps to GID 10234, the unix level will show 10234. I have an LDAP backend for everything. That seems OK with using "Domain Admins" as a unix group, despite the space in the names. I don't know if you can do this if you are using NIS or /etc/passwd for the unix accounts. I found that with samba 3.4.x it was easier if the unix group names were the same as the windows group names. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba |
