Hi guys,

(sorry for my typos, i'm dutch :-) )

First I would like to congratulate you all for a job wel done, the 
samba 3.0 looks and works great.

I have got a question neverteless,

I want to use the user manager for winnt for my users and group admin.
but i also want to stay off the linux accounts since i don't want 
everyone to be able to login to various programs

i am using the tdbsam backend with the idmap, but i cannot create 
users with the user manager, nor can i create groups.

i know i will have to user net group and pdbedit to make these
but i cannot figure out the right syntaxes with the add user, add 
group scripts in smb.conf

also I cannot use more then 1 group per user, and would like te be 
able to change this.

Could you give me some pointers, or possible the commands for
add user, add group, delete user from, add user to, etc. ?
this is my current smb.conf :

[global]
        workgroup = RJPCNET
        netbios name = RJPC-srv1
        server string = Samba3
        passdb backend = tdbsam, guest
        password level = 8
        username level = 8
        syslog = 0
        log file = /var/log/samba/%m
        name resolve order = wins bcast hosts
        time server = Yes
        socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_KEEPALIVE SO_SNDBUF=8192 
O_RCVBUF=8192
        disable spoolss = Yes
        domain logons = Yes
        os level = 35
        preferred master = Yes
        domain master = Yes
        wins support = Yes
        utmp = Yes
        idmap uid = 15000-20000
        idmap gid = 15000-20000
        comment = Samba 3.0.0
        printing = cups

[homes]
        comment = Home Directories
        valid users = %S
        read only = No
        browseable = No
[netlogon]
        comment = Network Logon Service
        path = /var/lib/samba/netlogon
        admin users = root
        guest ok = Yes
        nt acl support = No
        browseable = No
        blocking locks = No
        csc policy = disable
        locking = No
        oplocks = No
        level2 oplocks = No
        posix locking = No
        strict locking = No
        share modes = No
[simple]
        comment = simple share
        path = /tmp
        read only = No

I would suggest you to look at [EMAIL PROTECTED] 's smb.conf sent to the 
list two days ago , you will find it attached to this mail

Good Luck

[...]

I already used that one to create mine, but as I understand the 
useradd/userdel command, this creates linux accounts that samba creates, 
and that is exactly what I don't want to do

I want users to be created only for samba, without a linux account.

But thanks for the thinking.
