As you say, I see 'root = administrator' in smbuser, but I am still unable to authenticate as administrator. During the authentication attempt the following log entry is recorded-
check_ntlm_password: Authentication for user [administrator] -> [administrator] FAILED with error NT_STATUS_NO_SUCH_USER I believe that I need to use make an entry with pdbedit linking the domain admin sid to root. However, trying that produces- smbldap_search_domain_info: Searching for:[(&(objectClass=sambaDomain)(sambaDomainName=MYDOMAIN))] smbldap_open_connection: connection opened Username not found! So what more do I need to add?
