Unable to convert first SID ... in user token to a UID

Hi all,

(especially @scheinig and @DirkS ;))

I am unsure if I have an issue here. At least one Windows-program has issues when installed on server instead of local disk. When installed on server it always complains of not having access or not finding a file. Even though, when using explorer I find the file and I have full access (as the same user). So I did some logwatching and found this in log.smbd:

[2021/07/28 12:45:13.944540,  0, pid=18750] ../../source4
/auth/unix_token.c:97(security_token_to_unix_token)
  Unable to convert first SID (S-1-5-21-963731466-2093488295-4049041747-1120) in user token to a UID.  Conversion was returned as type 0, full token:

    SID[  2]: S-1-1-0
    SID[  3]: S-1-5-2

   Rights (0x             400):
    Right[  0]: SeRemoteInteractiveLogonRight

Strange enough. So I tried (with the help of this great Community forum ;)) wbinfo:

root@praxis:/srv/praxis# wbinfo -S S-1-5-21-963731466-2093488295-4049041747-1120
failed to call wbcSidToUid: WBC_ERR_DOMAIN_NOT_FOUND
Could not convert sid S-1-5-21-963731466-2093488295-4049041747-1120 to uid

Hmmmm… ok, there is an error. Now I was looking for the SID with univention-ldapsearch:

So it appears it is the computer account for the computer ANM. Ok, fine. Yes, this can obviously not converted to a USER-ID. But why is Samba then complaining about this?
(BTW: I alread did a re-join of the Windows-PC with no change).

Any ideas?

Hey Knebb,
I’m not sure if I’m the right one to answer a samba question. My first thought as I read the wbinfo error was the complete wbinfo loop described in scheinig’s help article and the net cache flush in the end.

Do you find the SID in s4search?

Hi,

thanks and greetings to Reiherwald :wink:

I was just wondering about this entry. As I was unsure what it meant. In the end I simply re-joined the PC and since then everything is fine.wbinfo does not report any errors. Shame one me, I did not do s4search, I should have known this.
[EDIT] The issue with the Windows program was “fixed” by disabling virusscan for this particular folder. :exploding_head: Did I mention I “love” Windoes?

Thanks anyways and greetings!
