If 'ls -l' shows you that some files are from "DOMAIN\user" and other are from "user", it seems to me that these are two different users. Most probable possibility: you have one user 'user' in local system and one with the same name in your system. could you please verify it? run as root: getent passwd and see whether you'll get 'user' and 'DOMAIN\user' Best regards, -- Lukas Lipavsky, QA Developer Key fingerprint = 5BEB 6AF2 9653 638E EC0E 7E73 9A11 2BC5 FF55 774A --------------------------------------------------- SUSE LINUX, s.r.o. e-mail: llipavsky@suse.cz Lihovarska 1060/12 tel: +420 284 028 969 190 00 Prague 9 Czech Republic --------------------------------------------------- On po 5. března 2007 Hans van der Merwe wrote:
I just got our IT guy to add my openSUSE box to the ActiveDirectory. Before I used user security in Samba and had to add users to my database to provide user auth to shares. I have a Win machine next to me, I use the same username and password (identity) on this machine as on SUSE. Before I could access my home share from the Win machine and read/write accordingly (user access for Win was seen as same as from local). Since changing to AD all the files created by the Windows machine in my SUSE shares are "user = DOMAIN/user" and "group = DOMAIN/domain users"; this is great - except that my SUSE login still writes the files as plain user no domain suffix?
Is there any way to change DOMAIN/user accesses to just plain user? Or other way around, get my SUSE login to use DOMAIN suffix?
ps, the SUSE manual says that I should get a different "domain" login page at restart after AD membership - I dont get it in gdm or kdm.
