getent passwd only pulls local info - getent group works?
 

I have two brand new boxes loaded up with RHEL4AS (2.6.9-67.ELsmp) and Samba 3.0.28a. I am trying to configure them to authenticate via Active Directory.

(I've marked out some info to not expose client info.)

My [smb.conf]

===========================

Now, wbinfo -u and wbinfo -g prints out active directory users and groups as it should. getent group shows me active directory groups. But getent passwd only returns local users. And unfortunately, the port for samba isn't opened on the firewall yet, so I can't test to see how samba is working. Did I make a typo somewhere? Can you see something I've done wrong?

This might help you, my students had to join samba to AD in a project last year. This is one of my top student's documentation:

You will also note that any delay in time will give you issues, ensure that the time's are not out of a sync by more than 4.59 seconds.

Cheers,

Brent.

Thank you. The time may be an issue. Everything else appears to be working properly and the users are able to log into the box with their AD credentials. I am going to try and find out today if the AD DCs are using the time servers.
