I am confused on the various account creation methods in samba. I am running Fedora Core 8 and Samba 3.0.26a-6.
1.) I can create a user with pdbedit -a I can create a user with smbpasswd -a I can list the users with the pdbedit -L command Where is the file with the users that the above commands create and pdbedit -L lists? 2.) In SWAT under "server password management" I created a use root with a password. This created a smbpasswd file in /etc/samba/ directory. This user is not listed when I run pdbedit -L. When do you use the user that is created in SWAT? 3.) When I run smbclient -L localhost to list the shares I am prompted for a password, but my root password does not work. What account and password is smbclient looking for?
