Hi,

These changes would fix this bug:

The command "net rpc rights grant ..." and the sentence before it should
be moved from step 3 to step 7 (offtopic note: I think that the note "if
you wish to not use roaming profiles ..." should be moved up within step
3).

The option -U must be inserted (e.g. net -U user rpc rights grant ...)
with "user" replaced with a username with sufficient rights (and a samba
password already set).

Step 1 should note that libpam-smbpass will transfer a unix password to
samba only when that user logs in to linux the first time (at least
that's the info that I found somewhere). If your users don't log in to
linux, only to samba, then you must set the samba passwords manually
with smbpasswd -a. This includes the user specified in the command "net
user rpc rights grant" and the user used to join client machines into
the domain.

The note in step 7 should include a reminder to make sure that the user
has a samba password, either by logging in to linux once or by entering
it with smbpasswd -a.

best regards,
Klaus
