UPDATE: I now finally have Samba Shares working on AIX 7.1.... However this was only after using a smbmap user list (To map individual Windows user to the root account on my AIX box)
For the Windows to Unix Mapping I added this to samba.conf
Inside smbmap we have this:
Quote:
root = ROBOT\joe.bloggs
The root user is then defined in the file share in smb.conf as follows:
Now when joe.bloggs opens the AIX file share from Windows he is mapped to the local root user and has access to the file share.
Now the only issue I have is that I don't want to have to add 10 + separate Windows users manually into the smbmap file. Currently I have tested with one account joe.bloggs.
Is there a way to configure samba so that if a Windows user is part of a specific windows group such as "domain admins" that they will automatically be mapped to the local AIX root user?
I'm sure there is an easier way than manually adding 10 + Windows AD usernames to the smbmap file manually.......
I also have an issue with wbinfo. I can run wbinfo -u and wbinfo -g commands fine and they return a list of all windows domain users and groups.
But if I try and query a list of users in a specific Windows group using wbinfo --group-info="domain users" this fails.
