Greetings,
We are having some rights issues on Samba 3.6.18 running on Slackware64
14.0 (the official Slackware Package). One of our users is having
access issues and I believe I have traced the problem to the following
entry in the log.smbd:
Primary group is 0 and contains 0 supplementary groups
Issuing the groups command for this user returns the 8 Linux groups in
which the user has membership.
In researching this, I found another reference to this log entry for
which the solution had to do with Windows groups and their relationship
to local groups.
Since we are using Samba stand-alone, we do not create any Windows
groups and use local Linux groups for privileges. (I'm assuming Samba
can still be used this way.)
My question is: How does Samba calculate these group memberships?
I'll look through the source code and see what I can see, but I am no
programming wizard, so I doubt I'll find what I need there.
Thanks!
Stu...
