Hi,

I am using Samba 3.0.10 PDC with LDAP as password DB. Before we use smbpasswd as passwd DB and every time I need to add a machine account into /etc/passwd so that the mahcine can join the domain. My understanding for LDAP is, this step is not needed any more since we will put all machine account into "ou=Computers". But I am proved to be wrong.

Is this the way Samba works? I mean, samba has to make sure a machine account exist in the /etc/passwd file of Samba PDC, doesn't it?
