Hi, I'm having difficulty creating new user accounts.
Attempting to create a new user account using smbpasswd fails, as follows: #smbpasswd -a guest New SMB password: Retype new SMB password: Unable to modify TDB passwd: NT_STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL! Failed to add entry for user guest. Failed to modify password entry for user guest Attempting to create a new user account using pdbedit fails, as follows: # pdbedit -a -u guest new password: retype new password: Unable to modify TDB passwd: NT_STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL! Unable to add user! (does it already exist?) The user does not exist in the Samba database: # pdbedit -L -u guest Username not found! The unix account exists: # cat /etc/passwd | grep 'guest' guest:x:1059:1061::/var/empty:/bin/false # cat /etc/group | grep 'guest' guest:x:1061: Versions: # smbd -V Version 3.2.3 # uname -srmo Linux 2.6.27-7-server x86_64 GNU/Linux All commands are run as root on the Samba PDC. Any suggestions? Thanks! Daniel Kauffman -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
