Hello, I'm running samba 2.0.7 in a little nt-domain with security = domain. This works fine, but I don't want to manually put my nt-domain-users to local users of my linux server. So I put in my smb.conf quick and dirthy: add user script = /usr/sbin/useradd -m -s /bin/false %u This works, smbrun called useradd and the account would be successful createt and return is 0, but Samba asks the user for account and password again. When I now restart the Samba-Services or kill the session to the user-machine, then in the next session the former created account can be used. What's the matter ? I think, after create a user, Samba must again have a lock to /etc/passwd and I think, that this yet iss'n so. Can annyone tell me, if this is a bug from me or from Samba ?
