I'm having problems using smbldap-tools 0.8.2 from idealix,
I'm using the following entry in my smb.conf file:
add machine script = smbldap-useradd.pl -w -g 553 %u
Then, while I try to add a workstation to my domain, the script
adds a posixAccount, and then I get this error:
------
[2004/01/14 18:15:49, 1] passdb/pdb_ldap.c:ldapsam_modify_entry(1173)
ldapsam_modify_entry: Failed to add user
dn=uid=nodo03$,ou=Computers,dc=guaydil,dc=prv with: Already exists
[2004/01/14 18:15:49, 0] passdb/pdb_ldap.c:ldapsam_add_sam_account(1575)
ldapsam_add_sam_account: failed to modify/add user with uid = nodo03$
(dn = uid=nodo03$,ou=Computers,dc=guaydil,dc=prv)
[2004/01/14 18:15:49, 0] pc_server/srv_samr_nt.c:_samr_create_user(2330)
could not add user/computer nodo03$ to passdb. Check permissions?
------
This is the problematic (I think) piece of smbldap-useradd.pl
###### Here the posixAccount is added ########
if (!add_posix_machine ($userName, $userUidNumber, $userGidNumber)) {
die "$0: error while adding posix account\n";
}
if (!$with_smbpasswd) {
### The script "executes" this branch, so nothing is done. It expects
### Samba to add the sambaSAMAccount, but I think that Samba fails to
### do it because already exists the posixAccount (with the same uid)
# (jtournier)
# Objectclass sambaSAMAccount is now added directly by samba when
joigning the domain (for samba3)
#if (!add_samba_machine_mkntpwd($userName, $userUidNumber)) {
# die "$0: error while adding samba account\n";
#}
} else {
##### The script never executes this branch
if (!add_samba_machine($userName)) {
die "$0: error while adding samba account\n";
}
After the error, I have this (pretty useless) object in my LDAP tree
(NODO03 is the machine name):
dn: uid=nodo03$,ou=Computers,dc=guaydil,dc=prv
objectClass: top
objectClass: inetOrgPerson
objectClass: posixAccount
cn: nodo03$
sn: nodo03$
uid: nodo03$
uidNumber: 1002

If I try to manually add the account "as Samba would do it", I get
the same error that can be read in the Samba logs:
servidor:~# smbpasswd -a -m nodo03$
ldapsam_modify_entry: Failed to add user dn=
uid=nodo03$,ou=Computers,dc=guaydil,dc=prv with: Already exists
ldapsam_add_sam_account: failed to modify/add user with uid = nodo03$ (dn =
uid=nodo03$,ou=Computers,dc=guaydil,dc=prv)
Failed to add entry for user nodo03$.
Failed to modify password entry for user nodo03$
Any idea?
