Re: [Samba] Adduser failing to accept 'username$'
If you are using Redhat AS/ES then this is probably the same problem we had. RedHat have been making changes to packages to be POSIX compliant. The problem you have is not SAMBA as such but programs it uses. In your case it is useradd. There now exists a fix for RedHat ES/AS v4. We reported this problem to RedHat about three or so months ago and they reacted with impressive speed. If you can't find the fix mail me off list and I'll hunt around on our systems for the RPM.

I've now tried to add the machine to my linux box without the $ in the end of the name - and then adding the $ to my /etc/passwd file as well as adding my machine and my windows user to my Samba pass db, and it gets me a little further. (I think ..) While trying to add my windows xp machine to the domain, I now get an "access denied" instead of "user not found" error. Looking through the logs have given me no clue whatsoever.

[Samba] Adduser failing to accept 'username$'
Hi group, For some odd reason - most likely my current level of n00bness - my useradd refuses to accept the $ in the machine name, when adding a Windows machine to my Samba 3 installation. I'm running Red Hat linux with a newly compiled version of Samba 3.0.14a. Any ideas?
