I'm running Samba 3.0.4 (using a tdb backend) as the PDC for several windows 2000 clients. I would like to enable an account lockout policy. I set the number of bad password attempts using pdbedit by issuing,
# pdbedit -P "bad lockout attempt" -C 3 and recieved confirmation that this was correct. I then tried to enable locking by issuing # pdbedit -u username -c "[L]" However pdbedit -Lv does not show any change to the account flags. I have been able to set other flags like "Password does not expire", "account disabled", etc. When setting these I receive confirmation that the flag has been set but go not receive any confirmation when trying to set the lockout. Any suggestions? Is there something else I need to turn on for this to work?
