Thanks for your feedback Dan. I started noticing issue after completing the steps from that Howto. First problem I encountered was smbadduser -a didn't work. smbpasswd -a testuser New SMB password: Retype new SMB password: Failed to modify password entry for user testuser Then, out of curiosity I added a testuser account in local unix account(non ldap) and smbpasswd -a testuser worked after than change. I really don't want to follow this path. Why would there be a need to add local users in unix? Isn't there any other simpler way? I wonder. After doing smbpasswd -a, I checked ldap database for user account. ldapsearch -x -Z '(uid=testuser)' # extended LDIF # # LDAPv3 # base <> with scope subtree # filter: (uid=testuser) # requesting: ALL # # testuser, People, dn: uid=testuser,ou=People,dc=abc,dc=def,dc=ghi uid: testuser sambaSID: S-1-5-21-21252568-3149985612-3984985731-2004 sambaLMPassword: 19DA5A9CC97F169BAAD3B435B51404EE sambaNTPassword: 0B6549421B2E7333E0E281F3BA5EEA94 sambaPasswordHistory: 00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 00000000 sambaPwdLastSet: 1352429483 sambaAcctFlags: [U ] objectClass: sambaSamAccount objectClass: account objectClass: top I don't see uidnumber and gidnumber. Not sure what went wrong. Thanks. -- 389 users mailing list [email protected] https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/389-users
