If a machine is joined to a samba3 domain, winbind offline logon is enabled and
a domain user logs to the machine I expect than, using nautilus, the user can
access network shares without inserting the password again.

In samba 3.6.x the user can't access windows shares (I've tried shares hosted
on windows xp and windows 2000 shares). When the user access a windows share
nautilus ask for username and password and the authentication using the
credential of the current domain user fails even if the credentials are correct
(so authentication fails both using cached credentials or manual credentials).
Using different domain user credentials all seems to works.

I found no workaround for this bug :((

Furthermore I have opened the same bug report in ubuntu launchpad:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/1009419

Have a great day

Sorry, but this is completely useless. If you insist in reporting such
bugs in distros rather than upstream but report it in each distro
using samba, then do you expect each distro maintainer to report it
upstream?

I Christian, be patient but I can't understand the English very well and
I've not a lot of experience in reporting bugs. In other words are you
tell me that I have to install samba from experimental before reporting
this bug? Have you some link to help me to install samba from experimental?

No this is not my point, though it is possible that samba in
experimental fixes your problem (but I doubt it). My suggestion is to
avoid reporting this issue in Debian and Ubuntu at the same
time-->this is just adding extra work to package maitnainers.

Moreover, this bug clearly is an upstream bug and it's probably better
to report it in the Samba bug tracker itself. The most important point
is knowing whether this is a regression or not. Was this working with
earlier version?

OK, thanks. I mark it as "forwarded" upstream, then.

Hi Christian, I'm very sorry for the inconvenience but I have reported the bug twice because I've not received any feedback in three months and I've thought that none have read it in ubunru launchpad! Any way debian squeeze has not the bug and if You need some more infos about it I'll be very happy to help you.

Have a great day
