Hi, all -- I am trying to write a script in which I can add users and their samba passwords easily and quickly. It looks something like: useradd -c "User Name" -g groupname -p unixpassword accountname
echo -e "smbpassword\nsmbpassword\n" | pdbedit -a -t -u accountname If I type the lines from the keyboard, it works fine. However, when I try to execute the script, the pdbedit on the second line reports that there's no unix accountname to apply to samba. I assume that this is because the useradd process hasn't finished when the pdbedit is executed. Is there a way to insure that the useradd has completed its execution before the pdbedit starts? Alternatively is there a way to insert a delay between the two commands to allow the useradd to complete? Thanks. cheers, pete -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
