-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi all, I managed to write a smb.conf so that the User Manager for Domains (NT Tool) can add users to the domain without any errors, but I don't know how the full name field (that is obtained from /etc/passwd) can be used . %$(ENVVAR) sounds to me like the right way to go, but I'm not an expert. I haven't found anything in that direction in the manpages or on Google, so your help would be very appreciated.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi again, I've solved my problem: I was using smbpasswd, because I just migrated to Samba 3.0. After I converted my password databse to tdbsam, the full name and the description field in usrmgr are handled correctly. Even if the GECOS field is still a dummy entry, I could change it with a script that parses the output of pdbedit -L. But this is not needed at the moment.

Hi, I Have a PDC running Samba 3.0.4 with OpenLDAP (posix and sambaSAM). I have more than 1500 users and almost 200 machines in the domain. At 7 PM, when the students start to login in the win98, win2000 and winXP machine, it's impossible to change a password even with smbpasswd the linux console. When the server is idle, it takes me 1 minute to open the MS User Manager and see the property of a user. What should be the minimum hardware to this PDC? Is it normal to have 36 slapd process, each using 33 MB? Another thing that may be slowing the ldap is that I need to use scope =sub in my ldap.conf to find users and computers: dc=homelan,dc=com,dc=br Users students Teachers employees Groups Computers the relevant part of my smb.conf: passdb backend = ldapsam:ldap://localhost ldap suffix = dc=homelan,dc=com,dc=br ldap admin dn = cn=admin,dc=homelan,dc=com,dc=br ldap filter = (uid=%u) ldap user suffix = ou=users ldap machine suffix = ou=computers ldap group suffix = ou=groups ldap port = 389 ldap server = localhost ldap ssl = no ldap delete dn = yes ldap passwd sync = yes admin users = administrator ---- What I can do to make it work faster? TIA. Bruno Pereti
