TDBSAM version too old (0), trying to convert it. TDBSAM converted successfully. account_policy_get: tdb_fetch_uint32 failed for field 1 (min password length), returning 0 ... but i don't understand this message too. I haven't done any configuration of the installed system at this point, so why says the package installation that it trys to convert an non-existant tdbsam. In addition to that, i strongly guess the version string appeared in the first line above ( '(0)' ) isn't valid. To besure that there really is NOT any type of inconsistent passdb which provokes this error, i listed /var/lib/samba and /etc/samba exactly before the errornous installation and there is nothing but a core /etc/samba/smb.conf and a directory /var/lib/samba/printers/ (for automatic printer installation purpose), but no *.tdb or smbpasswd files! > The question is, where is it trying to retrieve accounting information from > in this case, and why is it not finding it? The first question is exactly what i don't understand too, the second can i answer: there is no account, no password, no user info at all, so nothing can be found. (this is exactly what i want because i configure the ldap admin account manually afterwards and save its passwd in tdbsam). -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- EKF Elektronik GmbH Industrial Computers & Information Technology Jan Jansen mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.ekf.de Philipp Reis Str. 4 fax: +49 (0)2381-6890-90 D-59065 Hamm (Germany) phone: +49 (0)2381-6890-0 ----------------------------------------------------------------- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
