Hello, I am trying to set up a Linux server (Linux 2.4.21-20.ELsmp) to authenticate Windows users on an Active Directory controller. I want to be able to authenticate users for Samba shares and to authenticate telnet ftp, and console logons without creating separate or shared accounts on the linux box. I followed the instructions at http://us2.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/winbind.html#winb indcfg Our ADS must be running in legacy mode because I used 'net rpc join' and not 'net ads join' to join the domain. Now I can enumerate the users using winbind -u, but I cannot connect to a Samba share, even if specify everyone can use the share. If I try to connect to the Samba share from my PC using an existing linux user (like root), I get a dialogbox that says "The credentials supplied conflict with an existing set of credentials". I get these messages on the console when I try to connect to the Samba share /export/kickstart: Feb 25 11:29:16 myserver winbindd[1833]: [2005/02/25 11:29:16, 0] nsswitch/winbindd_acct.c:winbindd_create_user(911) Feb 25 11:29:16 myserver winbindd[1833]: winbindd_create_user: idmap_allocate_id() failed!
