Hello. This my first go at 3.0.5 samba. I am going off of chapter four in the examples. I have set it all up and go to my System properties to join a domain when I am asked for a user. In 2.2.x I was instructed to create a root user to be able to join a domain. Is this who I use for 3.0? If it is... When I go to create the root user ( pdbedit -a -u root) I get the following error: [root@localhost] # pdbedit -a -u root new password: retype new password: tdb_update_sam: Failing to store a SAM_ACCOUNT for [root] without a primary group RID Unable to add user! (does it already exist?) How do I join the domain? And is there better documentation on the pdbedit command? It seems so mysterious in both SAMBA guides. I am running - samba 3.0.5 - from srpm (rpmbuild -bb samba.spec) Fedora Core 2 with yum updates Thanks. Karl Banasky Email kbanasky@heatcon.com
