I don't know how many times I've setup samba shares, but... It's been a while since the last time. The SID UID maps used to always seem random. I.E. if I had to move the data to another box, I'd have to note all of the SID / UID relations and write scripts to convert them on the new box.
This last time I used the rid method (first time I'd seen it). All went well for a while. Users authenticated from the domain with no issue, etc... After about a week of operation, the mappings started to drop off. When this happens the only way to fix it is use wbinfo -R UID and get the user name, then find the files with the UID+offset and chown them. I've written a scipt file to do this, but that's not the point.
Attached is my smb config file. What am I missing here.
Hello
I have multiple accounts that running application that uses unique port number
I want to generate this port from some sid number that stays constant for every user account , is there any place in the system
that generate number that is unique to the account ?
thanks (0 Replies)

idmap_tdb2 - Samba's idmap_tdb2 Backend for Winbind
DESCRIPTION
The idmap_tdb2 plugin is a substitute for the default idmap_tdb backend used by winbindd for storing SID/uid/gid mapping tables in
clustered environments with Samba and CTDB.
In contrast to read only backends like idmap_rid, it is an allocating backend: This means that it needs to allocate new user and group IDs
in order to create new mappings.
IDMAP OPTIONS
range = low - high
Defines the available matching uid and gid range for which the backend is authoritative.
script
This option can be used to configure an external program for performing id mappings instead of using the tdb counter. The mappings are
then stored int tdb2 idmap database. For details see the section on IDMAP SCRIPT below.
IDMAP SCRIPT
The tdb2 idmap backend supports an external program for performing id mappings through the smb.conf option idmap config * : script or its
deprecated legacy form idmap : script.
The mappings obtained by the script are then stored in the idmap tdb2 database instead of mappings created by the incrementing id counters.
It is therefore important that the script covers the complete range of SIDs that can be passed in for SID to Unix ID mapping, since
otherwise SIDs unmapped by the script might get mapped to IDs that had previously been mapped by the script.
The script should accept the following command line options.
SIDTOID S-1-xxxx
IDTOSID UID xxxx
IDTOSID GID xxxx
And it should return one of the following responses as a single line of text.
UID:yyyy
GID:yyyy
SID:yyyy
ERR:yyyy
EXAMPLES
This example shows how tdb2 is used as a the default idmap backend.
[global]
idmap config * : backend = tdb2
idmap config * : range = 1000000-2000000
This example shows how tdb2 is used as a the default idmap backend using an external program via the script parameter:
[global]

idmap config * : range = 1000000-2000000
idmap config * : script = /usr/local/samba/bin/idmap_script.sh
