Thx for your reply,
I recently (only 5 minutes ago :-) solved the problem with the connection
to the third NT-Server,
the -S <Server-Name> Parameter did not work, so I gave the IP-Adress
instead of the Name.
This only works for setting the password with the ntpass command, but
createuser and samuserset did not work ..
So I added the Server-Name to the /etc/hosts, mybe the "name resolution
order" - directive in the smb.conf would help
too in addition to a WINS-Server.
I have already read the FAQ and Howto from the kneschke site, here are the
ACB-Bits, which are described:
1 Enable / Disable Toggle
2 Home directory required
4 Password not required
8 Template Duplicate account
16 Normal User Account
32 MNS Logon User Account
64 Domain Trust Account
128 Workstation Trust Account
256 Server Trust Account (BDC)
512 Password Never Expires
1024 Account is Autolocked
2048 Password is locked
I can't find the Bit for the "User must change Password at Next
Logon"-Setting, am I blind??
The samedit-man-page does not say anything about the
samuserset/samuserset2-commands, except
mentioning their existence ..
I could solve this with setting 512, then the must-change-setting is
cleared automatically, but
this is only a cripple, because I plan to use password-aging for my servers
soon ..
Best Regards and many thx
Tom
