The following will reset the flags to the default setting clearing the lock:

pdbedit -r -c "[]" administrator

I recently am migrating my PDC from NT4 to Samba 3.025.  Apparently due to a
mismatch between the capitalization of the Windows account and the Unix
account (Administrator vs administrator) I managed to lock the account
before catching the discrepenacy.

# pdbedit -v administrator
Unix username:        Administrator
NT username:          Administrator
Account Flags: [ULX Bad password count : 5

I reset the bad password count" field with the following command pdbedit -z -u administrator

However, the account is still locked and I can not clear the lock (X) flag.

# pdbedit -v administrator
Unix username:        Administrator
NT username:          Administrator
Account Flags: [ULX Bad password count : 5
# pdbedit -z -u administrator
pdb_update_autolock_flag: Account Administrator administratively locked out
with
 no bad password time. Leaving locked out.

# pdbedit -c [UX administrator
pdb_update_autolock_flag: Account Administrator administratively locked out
with
 no bad password time. Leaving locked out.
Can only set [NDHLX] flags


Resetting the lockout duration doesn't help either

# pdbedit -P "lockout duration" -C 5
account policy "lockout duration" description: Lockout duration in minutes
(defa
ult: 30, -1 => forever)
account policy "lockout duration" value was: 30
account policy "lockout duration" value is now: 5


Any ideas?

I added a 2nd account to the unix "DomainAdmins" group (which is mapped to
the windows group) but that doesn't seem to give automatically add it to the
NT "Domain Admins" group .  This group had been in the Domain Admins group
on the NT4 machine.

Thanks
