[Pkg-samba-maint] Bug#535910: samba: Samba not checking /etc/group for secondary groups when determining filesystem access

[Stephan Seitz]

Hi!

Package: samba
Version: 2:3.2.5-4lenny7

I have a little newer version of samba but the same symptoms. I’m using 
winbind to map the ADS groups to Unix groups (LDAP access to the ADS).

The smb process for the share is running as the user who is logged in.  
But contrary to a shell access (here „id” shows all groups the user is 
a member of), the smb process doesn’t seem to know which other groups 
beside the primary group the user belongs to.

Shade and sweet water!
