Can you please file a bug on the Debian bug tracking system, pointing to
bug 10604 upstream and requesting that the fix should be backported to
Debian jessie?

That might speed up things...

There is a bug report since this email was exchanged.

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=803001

It suggests a magic idmap config as a workaround.  This does not work and you can't

just throw range values in there which overlap with Unix UID range.

This is known issue for awhile now and the fix from samba upstream is still

not in Debian stable.

We have one server seeing the second auth always required, and another server

where the session always fails to connect with the getpwuid() failed error.  I'm dead

in the water with development of the second server - I'll need to look at

installing from testing or trying a build from http://downloads.van-belle.nl/samba4
