[Samba] Making unix system accounts invisible in USRMGR.EXE
I have a Samba (3.0.22) server (working on Ubuntu 6.06.1) acting as NT PDC. My passdb backend is tdbsam. I'm using USRMGR.EXE from Microsoft for user account administration. In USRMGR.EXE I see all accounts, unfortunately also Ubuntu's system accounts (like proxy, sync, sshd etc.). Is there any way to make them invisible for USRMGR.EXE? Cheers B.

Do they show up when you run 'pdbedit -L -w' ? jerry -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.4 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFFAdL+IR7qMdg1EfYRAq8RAKDLD7Dg4Hf8BY50TVwYbclcfLPjwACgxYyo w7Rg2wFb97SyR/XTYKCuJ+Y=oMdE -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
