probably because smbpasswd is trying to create the entry just using
the sambaAccount objectclass which is AUXILIARY.  we fixed smbd to add the 
object "account" as the STRUCTURAL class in if the entry did not 
previsouly exist.  but I don't remember when we added this fix.  
Up the debug level in smbpasswd to look for details.

[Samba] SAMBA and root entry

[Richard Canada]

hi all,

I am trying to add an entry for root using samba-2.2.7 and Directory 
Server for LDAP.

I use the command "smbpasswd -a root" and I get this error:

[root@sysad2 root]# smbpasswd -a root
New SMB password:
Retype new SMB password:
LDAP search "(&(uid=root)(objectclass=sambaAccount))" returned 0 entries.
failed to modify user with uid = root with: Object class violation
	
Failed to add entry for user root.
Failed to modify password entry for user root
[root@sysad2 root]#


I have verified that I have a good connection to the LDAP server.  Any 
ideas?
