[Bug 240353] [NEW] Can not add user/macine accounts to Samba PDC if the "ldap idmap alloc" backend is used

[Heiko]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: winbind

The winbind Package (3.0.28a) that Ubuntu 8.04 uses has a Bug,
so the LDAP idmap alloc Backend (ldapsam:trusted = yes, ldapsam:editposix = yes) is unusable.
I configured Samba as it is described on
http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Ldapsam_Editposix
With 3.0.28a you get the Error "NT_STATUS_INVALID_PRIMARY_GROUP" if you try to add an User or Machine Account.
In the winbind log files you can see, that winbind fails to get the UID or GID of a SID. With the same configuration and Samba 3.0.30 all is fine
(I tried it with the Debian Lenny Packages). Karolin Seeger from Sernet GmbH confirmed that this was a Bug in 3.0.28a.

I think that should be fixed in Ubuntu 8.04 especially that this Version is a LTS-Version.
With this Bug it is only possible to set up a PDC when the old smbldap-tools method is used.
