I had setup a Samba 3 server as PDC with a passdb LDAP backend.

Server SID: S-1-5-21-3270... Domain: A

Every user has a SambaSID beginning with this Server SID. But now I try to setup a second server for some shares. This server should use the same LDAP backend because I don't want to have two LDAP backends. Otherwise I have to do modifcations (e.g. add users) twice.

Second Server SID: S-1-5-21-3797... Domain: B

But now when a user try to mount this new share I see this error in samba log: The primary group domain sid(S-1-5-21-3797....) does not match the domain sid(S-1-5-21-3270...) for xxx(S-1-5-21-3270...).

I understand the problem but what can I do to avoid to maintain two LDAP backends?

Regards, Simon
