  • [Samba] Updating to Samba-4.6.0 testparm ERROR: Invalid idmap range for

    From spindles7 via samba@21:1/5 to All on Thu Mar 16 19:20:01 2017
    After updating my test AD DC from samba version 4.5.5 to 4.6.0 and running testparm as asvised, I get the error

    idmap range not specified for domain '*'
    ERROR: Invalid idmap range for domain *!

    After I get trhe dump of the service definitions, I notice that there is a line in the [global] section:

    idmap config * : backend - tdb

    However, my smb.conf doesn't contain any such line (as recommended by the Wiki documentation) so where is this coming from, and what
    to do about it?

    Thanks,

    Roy

    This is an artefact of the latest changes and you do have the line ;-)
    try running 'testparm -v'

    There is a bug report about the problem here:
