[Samba] Re: Re: Samba/LDAP/PDC Questions

Hello Paul,

Thank you for the help. Now I am back to my original question: I cannot add
NT4 machine to the samba domain!

I tried to use the "Identification changes" from NT4 system to sign into the
domain, it said "The machine account for this computer does not exist or is
anaccessible.

The log file said:

[2004/07/20 21:46:47, 0] passdb/pdb_ldap.c:ldapsam_update_sam_account(1512)

ldapsam_update_sam_account: failed to modify user with uid = king$, error:
modify/delete: sambaPrimaryGroupSID: no such value (Success)

[2004/07/20 21:46:49, 0] passdb/pdb_ldap.c:ldapsam_delete_entry(271)

ldapsam_delete_entry: Entry must exist exactly once!



I tried  'smbldap-useradd -w King$'.  It does not seem to add  the
SambaSID.

# smbldap-useradd -w king$
# smbldap-usershow king$
dn: uid=king$,ou=Computers,dc=sunix,dc=com
objectClass: top,inetOrgPerson,posixAccount
cn: king$
sn: king$
uid: king$
uidNumber: 1023
gidNumber: 515
homeDirectory: /dev/null
loginShell: /bin/false

Forcing creating a Samba account with option -a give me an error:
# smbldap-useradd -a -w king$
Can't call method "get_value" on an undefined value at
/usr/sbin/smbldap-useradd line 152, <DATA> line 283.

Using pdbedit also has problems:
# pdbedit -a -m  -u king
ldapsam_add_sam_account: failed to modify/add user with uid = king$ (dn =
uid=king$,ou=Computers,dc=sunix,dc=com)
Unable to add machine! (does it already exist?)

I started to think the add machine script must be wrong or something.
