Hey guys,

I've gotten my samba + openldap running quite well, minus one problem (that I know about). I've read over plenty of documentation, the official and other wiki's and such. I believe I have winbind working correctly, so I assume I won't have to use external scripts to add groups/users/etc..

But isn't there something one must do in order for their OS (in my case FreeBSD 6.2) to use my ldap server instead of /etc/passwd and /etc/group files? I'm unable to change the Administrator users password because I have no Unix account for it, and I assume it's looking for that in /etc/passwd. On the same token, I can add another user who already exists in my /etc/password (the local user I added during the installation of FreeBSD). And it shows up sucsessfully in my ldap server.

At first I was thinking that the ...

ldapsam:trusted= yes
ldapsam:editposix= yes

..handled this issue, via winbind. But that might be a misunderstanding on my part. Anyone have any ideas?
