Seems shody but cant you just add the user again to /etc/passwd. Then delete both.

Hi all,

        Looking for a solution to the following:-

# smbpasswd -x jh---
build_sam_account: smbpasswd database is corrupt! username jh--- with uid 1774 is not in unix passwd database!
Failed to initialise SAM_ACCOUNT for user jh---. Does this user exist in the UNIX password database ?
Failed to modify password entry for user jh---

Ths user has already been deleted from the /etc/passwd (in fact NIS passwd), so all we're trying to do is to remove them from smbpasswd too.

Seems an odd requirement that a user one is trying to delete has to
exist in UNIX passwd!


Any ideas?
