What version of Samba are you using? The information I gave you is correct for 3.0.14a (current stable). In explanation of the syntax: net rpc group addmem = add a group membership "Administrators" = The local group "Administrators" on the target machine "Domain Users" = The domain global group on the Samba domain -S crappyxpbox = The target Windows client -Uadministrator%secret = The administrator account and it's password on the target Windows client > > What is this for -Uadministrator%secret Is that to supply a local admin > password. Nope. It's the admin account and its password on the Windows client. - John T. > or does that to relate having already done this and I am not sure what > this is doing either. > > > net rpc user add 'user_name' -Uroot%secret > > net rpc password 'username' 'new_secret' -Uroot%not24get > > On May 16, 2005 03:13 PM, John H Terpstra <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > On Monday 16 May 2005 12:43, Vincent Yonemitsu wrote: > > > I have setup samba 3 as a PDC for a set of computers that previously > > > had > > > Domain Users setup to run as local admins under XP, so that anyone > > > that > > > has logged into the domain has local admin access.
