samba - Jun 2004 - testparm -s

When I check my smb.conf file using the testparm -s command I get these
messages
 
Unknown parameter encountered: "passdb backend"

Mark:

	I'm assuming since it's in the smb.conf file that you need it. If
you don't obviously take it out. What section is that parameter in? A share
section or your globals section? It should be in the globals.

Was this a typo in the email or is this exactly what you have in the smb.conf 
file? There should be an equal sign between the words.

No this is the message I received after running testparm -w

Gary,

	"passdb backend" is the name of the parameter, not the parameter and
value.
