I actually fixed this by doing the following steps: # service smbd stop # service winbind stop # cd /var/lib/samba # mv winbindd_cache.tdb winbindd_cache.tdb.backup # mv winbindd_idmap.tdb winbindd_idmap.tdb.backup # service smbd start # service winbind start
then # getent passwd and # getent group both worked!
