Yes, therefore, did you run these commands: http://us2.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-Guide/happy.html#id2557728 No. 12 In the above listing, you can see that the user root has been given UID=998. This means that operations conducted from a Windows client using tools such as the Domain User Manager fails under UNIX because the management of user and group accounts requires that the UID=0. You decide to rectify this immediately as demonstrated here: root# cd /opt/IDEALX/sbin root# ./smbldap-usermod -u 0 -d /root -s /bin/bash root Verify that the changes just made to the root account were accepted by executing: root# getent passwd | grep root root:x:0:0:root:/root:/bin/bash root:x:0:512:Netbios Domain Administrator:/root:/bin/bash Thanks. -- Kind Regards, Gavin Henry.
