The problem is when I start addind users using the 'smbpasswd' command.
I get an objectclass violation which says it cannot modify the
'userPassword' attribute.
After some searching, I noticed the 'userPassword' attribute was only
defined in the 'PosixAccount' objectclass. If I use a LDAP browser to
look what's in my directory, I see the user account, but he only has the
'SambaSamAccount' objectclass.
So it seems completly correct : if the 'PosixAccount' objectclass is not
added, then how could the 'userPassword' attribute be used in that
object ...
Then why the command does not add that objectclass ?


I'm not sure, but I think smbpasswd is not useable for ldap backend and you
must use some more sofisticated program for it (e.g. IDEALX smbldap-tools
http://samba.idealx.org/).



No, smbpasswd will handle all of the Samba backends.


Yes, I configured the users and groups management scripts in the smb.conf. That why smbpasswd is using smbldap-useradd in fact. Am I right ?

The issue here is that the 'ldap password sync' option is being used (hint - always post your smb.conf), and the user entries do not permit the setting of an LDAP password.

(The exact requirements differ between directory servers, but for
OpenLDAP, your uses must have a posixAccount or simpleSecurityObject
objectclass, to allow userPassword to be set).

ok, I knew I could it this way (that suppose I already have users in the directory), but what if I want to have separate entries for users and samba account in the directory ?
something like :
dn: uid=jpramondon,ou=samba,dc=alicante,dc=fr
objectclass: account
objectclass: posixaccount
objectclass: sambSamAccount
uid: jpramondon
userpassword: ...
...


and

dn: cn=j�r�me pramondon,ou=users,dc=alicante,dc=fr
objectclass: top
objectclass: person
objectclass: organizationalPerson
objectclass: inetOrgPerson
cn: j�r�me pramondon
...

I saw something like that somewhere ...
Here's why I want to have it this way : this could prevent me to have too much administrative tasks by having only one command to add a user. (smbpasswd -a user)
Is smbpasswd able to add that kind of entry (the samba account one, not the user) with both sambaSamAccount and PosixAccount (in order to prevent from getting that objectclass violation error) ?


Could you help ?

Thanx so much
