Hi,
I was having problem with the tdbsam backend in which a particular user got
listed twice with pdbedit.
(http://www.mail-archive.com/samba@lists.samba.org/msg109110.html)
Without much hope in fixing it, I am planning to re-generating passdb.tdb on
my PDC by:
(1)exporting tdbsam to smbpasswd backend
(2)delete passdb.tdb
(3)re-import smbpasswd to tdbsam backend
With the command ` pdbedit -i tdbsam -e smbpasswd`, I got a few errors for
~10 users:
build_sam_pass: Failing attempt to store user with non-uid based user
RID.
Importing account for some_user...failed
pdbedit -L -v does not really give me any information on "user RID", so I am
confused how it can be fixed.
Does the procedure make sense, or is there anything I am missing? Thanks,
Abe
