Sorry, the "I" before the [Global] section in my previous comment is of course a typo, it should not be there. To futher get a bit of context here: I had this server running without problems on ubuntu server 12.04 and upgraded to 14.04.1 LTS using do-release-upgrade. This is when getent group stopped working. So I guess something has changed in winbindd_idmap.tdb?
I also switched from he old idmap syntax which is now deprecated: idmap uid = 10000-20000 idmap gid = 10000-20000 to the new syntax: idmap config * : backend = tdb idmap config * : range = 16777216-33554431 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1307778 Title: getent group on trusty returns only local groups To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/1307778/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
