Hi all, I just wondered if anyone here was particularly familiar with idmap's diagonal mapping? It looked like it could be quite handy for adding group permissions with static maps (eg. Windows Group is mapped to a single unix user), but I'm wondering if it is possible to use it like that. When testing with one user, it works brilliantly, if I add:
idmap add wingroup:tmp@themacplace.private unixuser:tmp then login with the first account, james, I can write (and then read) files/folders and it creates them as the unix user tmp. That all looked really promising, but in looking at something else I tested that with a different user (also a member of tmp@themacplace.private) and it is writing the file with an ephemeral ID: drwx------+ 2 angela@themacplace.private Domain Users@themacplace.private 2 Feb 24 12:36 Test Folder - angela drwx------+ 2 tmp other 2 Feb 24 12:36 Test Folder - james What is odd, is that idmap itself actually seems to be working, it looks like it should be mapping angela to the tmp user: # idmap list james@themacplace.private add wingroup:tmp@themacplace.private unixuser:tmp # idmap list angela@themacplace.private add wingroup:tmp@themacplace.private unixuser:tmp Does anyone know why that would be working like that?
