I am setting up a Samba PDC which uses LDAP for account information.

It is a debian installation with samba 3.0.14a and slapd 2.2.23 (I'm also using ldap-account-manager, but I don't think that has anything to do with this).
Jan,

I also ran into maybe similar problems, which i couldnt solve on ubuntu(debian). The problem for me is that when the script is executed on the command line/ '/usr/sbin/smbldap-useradd -w //"eduard-laptop$"'/ the following enviourment varaibles are set:


Eduard,
I don't think I have your problem, because it is smbd that is reporting this. Furthermore I don't have smbldap-useradd on this system (I use ldap-accound-manager for this).

To be sure: I do not have a problem creating the user account for the machine. I have problems joining the machine itself to the domain.

As far as I understand, the machine will set a password for itself and I think that is what is failing.

I think I understand the reason now, but I'm not sure what to do next. Apparently, when I attempt to join the machine to the domain, an smbd instance is started with as the user that I gave (which is part of the Domain Admins group). And of course this user is not root, so that apparently is why it fails.

So... any suggestions what to do?

Thanks,
Jan Evert
