I'm new to samba.
I use SWAT to administer samba on a Mac OS X server.
I was able to add a couple of users, but now when a click on the Add User
button I get the following message back.
"User new-name does not exist in system password file (usually /etc/passwd).
Cannot add account without a valid local system user. " how to I get around
this?
