Hello,

OS: FreeBSD 4.11-RELEASE
Samba: Update from 2.2.5 to 3.0.20 (PDC)
Clients: WindowsXP SP2

I'm going to change the password backend. What I did is:

npy# pdbedit -i smbpasswd -e tdbsam

smb.conf:
-----------------------snip----------------------------------------------------
[global]
   smb passwd file = /usr/local/lib/samba/private/smbpasswd
;		(I also tried "passdb.tdb" instead of "smbpasswd")

   passdb backend = tdbsam:/usr/local/lib/samba/private/passdb.tdb, smbpasswd
-----------------------snip----------------------------------------------------

npy# pdbedit -a nholz
npy# grep -iac nholz /usr/local/lib/samba/private/passdb.tdb
2

Problem: new added users can not login to PDC
Error message (WinXP) : ... Please check user name or domain ...

Thanks in advance
Niels
