Hi mark, Thanks for your reply. I think /opt/IDEALX/sbin/smbldap-useradd is used to add users in ldap directory. But we are using samba as PDC without ldap support. When we try to join machine it should create machine account using the following [global] option
add user script = /usr/sbin/useradd -d /dev/null -g 10000 -s /bin/false -M %u Regards, Saravanan --- Mark Sarria <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Check that your user scripts are in that path, that > looks like the default, > you may need to adjust the path to match yours.
