samba - Oct 2002 - tdb Format

Hello All,

I think I touched on this subject on another thread when I was having
problems joining a WIN2k SP3 machine to the domain.

Anyway, does anyone know of a way to modify machine accounts in the new
format .tdb.  The old way was pretty simple as it only required one to
modify a text file like smbpasswd.  

I'd like to know what machine accounts I have listed in this file and
simply clean out what I don't want.  I may be able to track down my
problem if I could edit this file.

Anyone have a good solution?

Thanks!
IRV

Use pdbedit.  I'm assuming you are using HEAD/3.0.

I built pdbedit and tried it,  and I realized that pdb must be passwd
database... I had hoped I could use it to look at/edit the contents of my
winbind_idmap.tdb file.   Are there any recommendations about how to look
at/modify these other .tdb files?  

	Thanks,
