look at smbadduser and smbpasswd
There is also an option in smb.conf to sync with Unix passwords
and you shouldn't use plain text passwords
Security can be set to security=domain
But you need to create a computer account name manually on the NT/2000
server.

Subject: [SLUG] Samba...


I'm really sorry because was late to read these email(s)
 
Without harming everyone else, yes, most of the time, for us -newbies- is a
bit difficult to find a good doc, even sometime can't think the proper
question to post it here (I did it a few times...)
 

I was trying to set up samba with NIS and create local user in the box as
the authentication to the window$ (for a start before I really have to deal
with pam)
 
This is how I create the user:
 
[1] useradd -g 100 -d /dev/null -c mywidow -m -s /bin/false widowbox
 
[2] smbpasswd -a -m widowbox
 
On the widow machine, I try to join the domain, It give me an error saying
that no user name or bad password.
Anyone have a -bit- clue?
 
One more thing, I have a suggestion for the next SLUG-meeting
 
Why don't SLUG discuss about winbind? the real implementation, examples and
the explanation?
 
That will be great isn't? I think that will make more newbies (including me
for sure...) come on the next SLUG-meeting
 
Just an Idea.
Thanks in Advance
