Hi all,
This afternoon my Samba server started rejecting everyone's passwords,
with the error "pdb_init_sam failed!" What does that mean? I've never
seen the error before. It seems that the password is being checked
correctly with Active Directory, as an incorrect password yields a
different error message, but the pdb_init_sam seems to cause Samba to
reject even a correct password!
Any ideas what this message is for?
Thanks,
Adam.
