Hi all,

Another idmap issue!  Just trying a new VM for some troubleshooting and I can't seem to get the name_cache_timeout and id_cache_timeout settings to work on here.  I've run:

svccfg -s svc:/system/idmap setprop config/name_cache_timeout=count: 31536000
svccfg -s svc:/system/idmap setprop config/id_cache_timeout=count: 31536000

but I'm still seeing UIDs changing every 10 minutes (cron job here running an id to a file every minute):

13:05:00   uid=2147491845 gid=2147483650(Domain Users at themacplace.private)
13:06:00   uid=2147491845 gid=2147483650(Domain Users at themacplace.private)
13:07:00   uid=2147491845 gid=2147483650(Domain Users at themacplace.private)
13:08:00   uid=2147491845 gid=2147483650(Domain Users at themacplace.private)
13:09:00   uid=2147491845 gid=2147483650(Domain Users at themacplace.private)
13:10:00   uid=2147491845 gid=2147483650(Domain Users at themacplace.private)
13:11:00   uid=2147491846(james at themacplace.private) gid=2147483650(Domain Users at themacplace.private)

13:14:00   uid=2147491846 gid=2147483650(Domain Users at themacplace.private)
13:15:00   uid=2147491846 gid=2147483650(Domain Users at themacplace.private)
13:16:00   uid=2147491846 gid=2147483650(Domain Users at themacplace.private)
13:17:00   uid=2147491846 gid=2147483650(Domain Users at themacplace.private)

Does anyone know if this is a bug, or expected behaviour?  Obviously doesn't affect CIFS at all, but I'm trying to do some troubleshooting against another service.  What also seems a bit weird is the output format of id changes when the id ticks over (adds the username into brackets)?

Thanks,

James.
