Hi,

does Samba-3.0.0beta3 still requires the posixAccount object for machine accounts?



Unless you use winbind, yes (Which doesn't make much sense when you're already using LDAP & nss-ldap).



If so does Samba or any program called by Samba change the userPassword attribute for machine accounts?



Samba has an option 'ldap passwd sync', when set samba will update userPassword whenever the two samba hashes are updated, too.

http://de.samba.org/samba/devel/docs/html/smb.conf.5.html#LDAPPASSWDSYNC states that this option applies only to user accounts. The reason I asked on the mailing list was that I had no clear yes or no on this issue.
I checked my ldap replication logs about changes to the userPassword attribute. There was none. Therefore I come to the conclusion that Samba 3.0.0beta3 is not making changes to it.


Thanks for the help
