Putting machine accounts into ou=Computers works just fine provided: - smb.conf is configured to look into that branch - nss_ldap is also configured to go into that branch Regarding nss_ldap, you can point it either at the top of your tree, so that it can reach both ou=Computers and ou=People using a subtree search, or specify nss_base_passwd twice: once for ou=Computers and once for ou=People. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
