What errors do you get in the Directory Service Debug log located
in /Library/Logs/DirectoryService/DirectoryServicedebug.log when
an AD user tries to log in?
I did have an issue the other week where the "winbind separator=+"
was causing a very similar issue, but let's check the log to see if
it's the same problem....
Hi David
Thanks for trying to help me. Meanwhile, I restarted the server,
unbound and rebound to AD twice, and all of a sudden, it's working
again. Don't ask me why, I haven't got any clue...
and it even works WITHOUT uncommenting "auth methods" in smb.conf,
which was ABSOLUTELY necessary before. Maybe they really changed
something with 10.4.9?
Well, I'll keep my fingers crossed that it stays that way.
