[Samba] idmap GID range became full without reason
in [Samba]

From: Andrew Hotlab on 10 Jun 2010 09:40 Please excuse my ignorance: I have been running Samba for a little time, and I've very little experience with it. I'm running Samba 3.0.37 on FreeBSD 7.2/amd64, configured as member server of a domain whose PDC is a Samba 3.0.25b-apple (the default Samba instance running on a Mac OS X 10.5.8). The member server is sharing a couple of folders for 5 users (most of whom are using Mac OS 10.5.8 on their clients). Here is the smb.conf (Mac Server has the IP 192.168.167.12, FreeBSD has IP 192.168.167.6): [global] workgroup = XXXX netbios name = BSD-SERVER server string = interfaces = 192.168.167.6/24 security = DOMAIN auth methods = winbind passdb backend = tdbsam load printers = No printcap name = /etc/printcap disable spoolss = Yes show add printer wizard = No preferred master = No local master = No domain master = No wins server = 192.168.167.12 idmap uid = 15000-20000 idmap gid = 15000-20000 winbind use default domain = Yes hide dot files = No template homedir = /usr/local/samba/Users/%U template shell = /bin/csh [Users] comment = Home Directories path = /usr/local/samba/Users read only = No [Groups] comment = Group Folders path = /usr/local/samba/Groups read only = No force security mode = 0666 force directory security mode = 0775 Every two-three months, all users are unable to access shared folders because the idmap GID range became full!! What I noticed is that each time a user mounts a shared folder, his/her GID is incremented, and when it reaches the upper limit, the file log.winbindd-idmap became full of these errors: "nsswitch/idmap_tdb.c:idmap_tdb_allocate_id(470) Fatal Error: GID range full!! (max: 20000)" Can anyone kindly suggest me what is causing this behavior, or at least put me in the right direction? Can I activate some debug to obtain more info about this? Any help will be greatly appreciated: I convinced the customer to use Mac/BSD/Samba instead of going to Windows because I was confident it would have been a valid alternative, and it's hard to justify these errors thank you all in advance!!
