Yeah...it's windows...that and my samba install is still
screwy -- just different screwy. I mean before, cygwin couldn't talk
to it at all, (that was the "local device has failed message" (or similar)),
now it contacts it, but it has inconsistent and incomplete information.
So now, it better and worse at the same time!...joy...

Nep.
Not in the domain. Both were != None in my listing.
Maybe not supposed to be that way, Dunno, but domain-law was
in correct group, (lawgroup), though domain-root was in a non-existent group
(but isn't that way on the the server!)... Actually everything
was coherent except cygwin coudln't talk to the server, but all the UID's
matched up in win, and w/file sharing/permissions/acl's, even setting
'priviledges' via the domain controller, and not by putting in a domain-admin
group... was all cool, then I upgraded (?) to 3.6, .. they rehashed the
ID number system again, so my unix uid-> nt-sid db is FUBAR'ed

It didn't.... there were actually '3',
Two that did merge, 'backup operators' -- both mapped to a well-known-SID,
but the one with the 'oddname' 'BUILTIN/backup operators' is still the odd
guy out.
I'm sure I need to fix or rebuild my uid db on the server. I'm
guessing it's pretty well hosed. I will probably drop back to 3.5.x, since,
there've been lots of problems with 3.6 in performance -- especially AV
performance. Before, explorer used 'share' the net connect more, but with
SMB2, it hogs it, and AV drops out horribly.
Tried all sorts of buffer reducing, and even turning on QOS..no
luck yet, but maybe all the authentication probs are causing excess
bandwidth probs...dunno.
Anyway Thanks VERY MUCH for the response -- it made it more clear about
how I should be using the program (for some reason I always thought I
had to merge them -- )... ;-)...
Thanks,
Linda
