What did you post previously that generated that reply?
What is your current "passdb backend" statement?
I'm not sure how I determine my "passdb backend" statement. I don't see
anything like this in my global values. If I just add something like
"passdb backend = tdbsam" don't I have to have set something up to make
that work?
If it has more than one value, remove all but the first one (I'm assuming that
the first value is the one in use; usually the case but not guaranteed).

I just posted that samba 3.0.23c-1 broke my Mac connection that was
working with previous versions of samba, and the result of "testparm" on
my debian box, as follows:

Unknown parameter encountered: "character set"
Ignoring unknown parameter "character set"

Sorry, Chris, I'm a bit of a newbie with samba. I've always been able to
use the gui and get things to work, but I can't this time. Can you
clarify what I need to do to alter my smb.conf file? I can send the one
on my OSX machine as well if that will help.
