Hi Mike,
Means just what it says - the uid field in your /etc/passwd file (or in your
nis database) for the user walliske
is DIFFERENT than the uid field  in your /usr/local/samba/private/smbpasswd
file entry for user walliske.
do a grep walliske /usr/local/samba/private/smbpasswd
and a grep walliske /etc/passwd  (or ypcat passwd|grep walliske)  and make
the uid fields in both files
match.
Hope this helps,
Don

I am getting this error in the client log file.  Why. 
  Error : UNIX and SMB uids in password files do not match for user
'walliske'! 
[2002/03/22 07:03:48, 0] smbd/password.c:(513) 
I am running samba on HP-UX 11.00 and the client is a standalone w2k laptop.

Here is a copy of my smb.config file 
  [global] 
           workgroup = UNIX 
           netbios name = AMBER 
           security = SERVER 
           encrypt passwords = Yes 
           map to guest = Bad Password 
           username map = /etc/opt/samba/user.map 
           log file = /usr/local/samba/log.%m 
           preferred master = Yes 
           domain master = Yes 

   [data] 
           path = /data 
           writeable = Yes 

   [printers] 
           path = /tmp/spool 
           printable = Yes 
I have created a map file and used smbpasswd to change users password to
match unix and w2k.
