Hi,
We've been trying to set up a Samba 3 installation using a Postgresql
backend with the passdb pgsql module. We compiled our own version of
Samba 3.05 on Debian 3.0r1 after realizing the packages don't build the
experimental backends by default. The Postgresql database is set up and
working, but when attempting to add a new user using pdbedit, we keep
getting this errors regarding "No Identifier specified." Looking
through
the pgsql module source code, it looks like the location variable is not
set correctly. Any help regarding how to get the pgsql backend working
correctly would be much appreciated. I have enclosed the output from
running the pdbedit command below.
Thanks,
Rohit
