[Samba] adding computer in domain with user other than root
Hello I tried to add a computer to a Samba domain using another account (testuser) than root. I use LDAP for authentication and added the account (testuser) with uid=0 in ldap. If I use this account to add an computer to the domain I get the error: "Access is denied". And in the samba log: [2003/10/31 14:49:57, 0] libsmb/smbencrypt.c:decode_pw_buffer(260) decode_pw_buffer: incorrect password length (-1763543070). I know from previous posts that it's necessary to have an uid=0. But are there any other requirements. I also added this testuser to the domain admin group directive in samba. I use samba 2.2.8a. Thanks Werner

The user MUST be root, if you want to use another user map it to root in smbusers. regards. thiago.> I tried to add a computer to a Samba domain using another account > (testuser) than root. > I use LDAP for authentication and added the account > (testuser) with uid=0 > in ldap.
