Hi The user lrodrigh exist in the /etc/passwd ? If the user exist in the domain, the user must be exist in unix password DB. I think that is the source of your problem. ----------------------------------- St?phane PURNELLE stephane.purnelle@corman.be Service Informatique Corman S.A. Tel : 00 32 087/342467 Hi List, I have a problem authenticanting some of the users into a Windows 2000 PDC with Samba 2.2.5. The thing is that I can add some of the users in the PDC as Samba users but with some of them I can't, I run the following command and I get this: # smbadduser lrodrigu:lrodrigu ERROR: lrodrigu Not in passwd database SKIPPING... # But the user 'lrodrigu' is in the passwd database (/etc/passwd) so I don't get it. However, some of the users aren't in that file and I can add them as Samba users... It's weird, isn't it? Well, Here you are the users in the DOMAIN: # wbinfo -u Administrator db2admin Guest guigonza IUSR_HAL IWAM_HAL krbtgt leosamba lrodrigu NetShowServices nuevo pruebasamba samba smbusr sysadm TsInternetUser usrsamba # If anybody knows how to fix this problem or has any clue about it, please let it me know...
