Hi,

~    I am doing a test install for Samba 3.0.0 with ldap sam backend,
when I try to delete a user, I get this output

# smbpasswd -x administrator
ldapsam_delete_entry: Could not delete attributes for
uid=administrator,ou=Users,dc=my-domain,dc=com, error: Object class
violation (object class 'account' requires attribute 'uid')
Failed to delete entry for user administrator.
Failed to modify password entry for user administrator

I am also unable to add any user other than administrator, if I try this

# smbpasswd -D 255  -a user
