How are you adding users?
adding users to the box with 'useradd' and now I also have to add users
who want samba access with smbpasswd -a username as well.
You don't seem to have an add user script!
erm, no, must have missed that! Is there an example one in the samba dir?
Look at the sample smb.conf files in the HowTo collection or the Samba
by Example - both at www.samba.org. Also, you almost certainly want
to encrypt passwords.
I probably should do but haven't up till now
I recommend installing SWAT if you haven't done so already and use its
wizard to set your box up as a domain controller (since that seems to
be how you want to use it).
yes, I really should do, but didn't think i'd need to if I just copied
over my previous smb.conf.
thanks

Hi when using samba version Version 2.0.5a (I didn't compile) I never
had to explicitly set up samba users with smbpasswd -a.
Since upgrading to version 3.0.22 I now have to add each user
otherwise I get the following in the logs
[2006/06/15 14:20:46, 2] auth/auth.c:check_ntlm_password(317)
check_ntlm_password: Authentication for user [richard] -> [richard]
FAILED with error NT_STATUS_NO_SUCH_USER
When setting up I simply copied over the old version of smb.conf that
I used to use.
