Hi,
I'm using Unix now for the last 2 years, so I'm learning everyday new
things. Now I'm trying to configure Samba 2.2.5 (on Freebsd 4.4) so that
w2k machines can logon to the domain.
I added several users to smbpasswd (which are real users on the server. I
would like to have "virtual users" which don't have a real account but
that's an other problem)
In several howto's I was told to add trusted w2k machines with the
following instruction:
useradd --g smbuser --d /dev/null --s /dev/null ntclient$
Now add it to the password database
smbpasswd -a -m ntclient (the $ at the end is not required)
Freebsd can not add an account with a "$" nevertheless I made the account
and tried smbpasswd -a -m ntclient
I did get the following error (also when I changed the name in my passwd
with a $)
User ntclient$ does not exist in system password file (usually
/etc/passwd). Cannot add account without a valid local system user.
Failed to modify password entry for user ntclient$
But the user exist!!
Does anyone has experiance with logon to a domain with w2k-clients?
