Description ucchi@griffin.dyndns.org 2007-09-03 08:55:20 UTC 
I'm using FreeBSD-6.2 for samba PDC.
I'm using tdbsam for password backend.
I created some shell script to maintain unix users and groups.

My "add group script" prints a gid when a unix group was successfully created.
But the gid is not used by samba. 
So "net rpc vampire" could not map NT groups and Unix groups.

I think that following code should be fixed.
utils/net_rpc_samsync.c line 616

if ((grp = getgrnam(name)) == NULL){

is

if ((grp = getgrgid(gid)) == NULL){

I applied this to my samba, I think it works correctly.
