hi list,

How do you calculate a machine SID and primarygroupSID?

On a user you would do 2*uidNumber+1000 and 2*uidNumber+1001

But machines accounts dont have a uidNumber so how is the SID genrated??



Machines do and must have a uidNumber, and a full posixAccount. From there they are just like other users.

hmmm, "smbpasswd -a -m netbios" only adds "account,top,sambaSamAccount" object classes, it doesnt add posixAccount!
