Todays question - Getting winbind working

[ChrisH]

Ok I am trying to get winbind working. I have succesfully joined the domain and a wbinfo -t to test the trust secret succeeds but I cant get a list of usernames it just says

error looking up domain users

also challenge/response password authentication succeeds.

I have tried setting the auth user for winbind as well with no luck.

So now im not sure if this is a windows server security issue or my Linux config?

 

Any ideas?

 

Ps I was following the official HowTo on the Samba site.

 

PPS im almost tempted to change over to gentoo as the wiki is a lot better if nothing else !!!!

[ChrisH]

I managed to get it working using the setup in the gentoo wiki

I'm guessing it was kerberos. Clock skew perhaps?

[ChrisH]

I did have clock skew yes but with my original setup it didnt tell me so I was none the wiser. With this setup it told me so I promptly sorted that out .

Btw the way you tried the newer versions of DG with authentication yet?

[Geoff]

No, I'm using the ntlm_auth wrappper directly with Squid.
