OK, these steps are now in the latest e-smith-samba RPM. I can join domains as "admin" and no longer need "root" in the smpasswd file. # Upgrade e-smith-samba and e-smith-lib - the "root" user is no # longer required in /etc/smbpasswd FTP=ftp://ftp.e-smith.com/pub/e-smith/contrib/GordonRowell/RPMS/noarch rpm -Uvh $FTP/e-smith-samba-1.1.0-24.noarch.rpm \ $FTP/e-smith-lib-1.7.0-25.noarch.rpm # If you haven't already done so, upgrade to the "official" Samba 2.2.2 RPMs FTP=ftp://ftp.e-smith.com/pub/e-smith/contrib/CharlieBrady/RPMS/i386 rpm -Uvh $FTP/samba-2.2.2-6.i386.rpm \ $FTP/samba-common-2.2.2-6.i386.rpm \ $FTP/samba-client-2.2.2-6.i386.rpm # Remove the root user from /etc/smbpasswd - no longer required smbpasswd -x root # Reconfigure Samba and set permissions on /etc/smbpasswd /sbin/e-smith/events/actions/conf-samba /sbin/e-smith/events/actions/restart-samba Now try joining the domain by entering admin as the user and your system password. Try also to join the domain as "root", which should now fail.
