One runs NT (Maybe 2K and AD in a few months) and is our PDC. The other is running Linux+Samba, and is a file server using Winbind and "security=domain". Last year, I created the users account with a crappy DOS + NtResKit batch script on the PDC (From a text file containing names), then exported the text file to the Samba file server to process it with a bash script to create the homedirs, setting permissions, etc... Thank the winbind bringing NT account into Linux. Fine. Now, this year, i'm trying to create these accounts ONLY from the Samba file server, using net rpc commands. I managed to create accounts on the NT domain, as I said, but they are a little... Empty ;-) -> No password set, no HomeDrive, no HomePath, no ProfilePath,... So, maybe I can "fill the fields" of the NT accounts remotely, using some samba commands ? And, definitely, my PDC is the NT one, not the Samba server (That would have been easier, huh ? ;-)). > If the former, you probably want pdbedit with an option like so: > > -h homedir > > This option can be used while adding or modifing a user account.

No, don't worry, it isn't the case ;-) And I guess that pdbedit only woks on the local Samba machine when it is the PDC... ?
