Hello all,
I have never had the need to use the "add user script" functionality but now I do. However, it does not seem to be working. My
smb.conf entry is like so:
add user script = /remote/configure_scripts/addusers.sh
where addusers.sh is a bash script that reads in a text file of usernames, groups, and passwords and adds the users to /etc/passwd,
/etc/group/ and /etc/samba/smbpasswd. The addusers.sh works fine from the command line but samba doesn't appear to call it.
I see that checks for "add user script" and "add machine script" are in the source code, so did I miss an option when I compiled
samba or what else is it that I am missing to get the script to trigger?
Also while I am on the subject of the "add user script," would it be possible to pass the username and password from samba to a
shell script? In other words, could I have something like
add user script = /remote/configure_scripts/addusers.sh %u %p
where %p is whatever samba holds the password variable in?
But first things first, how can I get the "add user script" functionality to
work?
Thanks,
Murrah Boswell
