This is what I did useing lastest smbldap-tools (0.8.4) edit /etc/samba/smbusers and comment out root = administrator admin ie # Unix_name = SMB_name1 SMB_name2 ... #root = administrator admin nobody = guest pcguest smbguest run smbldap-populate then 'smbpasswd Administrator' The smbldap-tools create an Account in the LDAP database named Administrator with a uid=0 and a gid=512 (Domain Admins). Once this account has a valid password you can use it to administer the Samba network and join machines to the network.
