Hello, I've started working with samba4-alpha6. I've been successful in setting up an AD with an openldap backend. I'm now shifting my focus to how I would go about migrating to a samba4 setup from a microsoft AD implementation.
To that end I've written a perl script that uses Net::LDAP
to create users in the samba4 LDAP backend. I can create
the user in such a way that samba4 is happy with it, but
I'm unable to set an initial password for the user.
I've tried using a template user that has a known password
and then duplicating that users nTSecurityDescriptor, but that
doesn't seem to work. I've tried creating a unicodePwd entry
with the following code:
my $charmap = Unicode::Map8->new('latin1') or die $!;
my $unipwd = $charmap->tou(qq{"$passwd"})->byteswap()->utf16();
But that doesn't seem to work either.
I was wondering if anyone working with samba4 could recommend
a way to create users programmatically. If a mechanism does not
exist, perhaps someone could point me in the right direction to
add the necessary hooks to samab4 to allow it.
