This is the error I am getting. I am using an ldap passdb backend. I have the attributes in ldap that I need i.e. objectClass=sambaSamAccount and the others sambaLmPassword etc. But I continually get this message in my logs: User **** in passdb, but getpwnam() fails! Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Spencer
