>has the user the sambasid attribute? Is it filled? did you use smbldap-tools?
Ah ha, just found myself a nice GUI LDAP browser... user 'andy' has no samba-related properties. The 'root' user *does* have samba properties and I found I could access ALPHA using these credentials. So my problem is the correct creation of user accounts. I've just gone back and re-read the document - turns out I was using: smbldap-useradd -m username to add users, but this only adds POSIX accounts, not samaba accounts. The correct command is: smbldap-useradd -a -m -c "User Name" username Now on to set up a slave LDAP directory and BDC... no doubt I'll be posting to this list again a little later ;-) Thanks for your guidance!
