So I've got my Samba test environment working great. PDC and BDC are both up with a LDAP backends. I have the LDAP servers replicating. The only issue is when I create a new user account on the master with the smbldap_useradd command, it does not create a system level account on the BDC. I don't really care about unix logons, but I wanted to know if this will have any effect on the Samba environment? -- David Sonenberg Systems / Network Administrator Stroz Friedberg, LLC 15 Maiden Lane, Suite 1208 New York, NY 10038 212.981.6527 (o) | 917.495.4918 (c)
