Hi, when I run pdbedit I get the following... Error loading module '/usr/local/samba/lib/pdb/mysql.so': /usr/local/samba/lib/pdb/mysql.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory No builtin nor plugin backend for mysql found Loading mysql:mysamba failed! There is indeed no mysql.so in this directory. I compiled samba with confg options --with-mysql-prefix=/usr/local/mysql --with-mysql-exec-prefix=/usr/local/mysql which is the same as the similar parameters supplied during the (working) MySql installation. Not sure what to do next... Any offers? Thanks... Howard
