To sum up my experience, in case it helps anyone... This is with 3.0.3.
Changing to the tdbsam password backend is utterly painless. (Thank you samba developers.) Apart from the fact that the smbpasswd file password backend is deprecated, tdbsam is better in that it allows you to set a user's primary group with pdbedit. You can set your group to "domain admin" and you'll be an administrator when you log into Windows - no messing with "net groupmap" or unix groups required. When I do this however, samba still logs the message shown above! I know my group setting is working because otherwise I wouldn't be an administrator when I log in. So I think producing the message in this case is a bug. I had one other problem due to a mismatch between the pdbedit man page and the behavior of the program. The man page says the -r flag is not needed but I found I could not change my group without it. Finally, for what it's worth, I've been running for over a month with "NT doesn't like that" with w2k clients and I'm not aware of any problems. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
