Is this possible without a mount of the users (those I want on machineB)
home directories on machineA.



What is your backend? Have you tried using/manning the pdbedit command?


Sorry, I was gone for a while.

I did not specify anything as a backend, so I assume it is using smbpasswd for a backend. I have just read the manpage for pdbedit and a command like:

        pdbedit -a -u testuser

Results in: could not create account to add new user testuser

This was done as root.

Any other commands to modify i.e the home with the -h flag did not change anything either.

What am I missing.

Thanks for your help.
