I'm confused about how ldap authentication is expected to work. Right now I'm seeing linux authentication work, apparently, but no samba users.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] samba]# pdbedit -Lv [EMAIL PROTECTED] samba]# smbpasswd -a rpixley New SMB password: Retype new SMB password: ldapsam_search_one_group: Problem during the LDAP search: LDAP error: (No such object)ldapsam_modify_entry: Failed to add user dn= uid=rpixley,ou=People,dc=isw1,dc=symbol,dc=com with: Already exists ldapsam_add_sam_account: failed to modify/add user with uid = rpixley (dn = uid=rpixley,ou=People,dc=isw1,dc=symbol,dc=com) Failed to add entry for user rpixley.

Or can anyone point me toward clarifying doc? (most of this comes from the howto).
