I have am hitting a wall with pdbedit, as shown below.
Any workarounds would be greatly appreciated.
I am encountering the inability to change any users (profile) SID on Samba
3.x for Linux and BSD, which causes the accounts to no longer recognize
their local Samba 2 profiles once they join Samba 3 domain. If I add a new
user and pdbedit -a user -U SID it ignores the -U.
The old profiles appear on the Windows clients as "unknown profile".
The problem is that the profiles are inaccessible.
If I man pdbedit, it clearly states the ability to;
smbsvr# man pdbedit
...
-G SID|rid
This option can be used while adding or modifying a user
ac-
count. It will specify the users' new primary group SID
(Securi-
ty Identifier) or rid.
Example: -G S-1-5-21-2447931902-1787058256-3961074038-1201
-U SID|rid
This option can be used while adding or modifying a user
ac-
count. It will specify the users' new SID (Security
Identifier)
or rid.
Example: -U S-1-5-21-2447931902-1787058256-3961074038-5004
