Hi,

I've followed the Howto:Samba to install fds/samba on a centos5.0 box.

I keep coming across an error when I get to the pdbedit line of the howto:

pdbedit -U $( net getlocalsid | sed 's/SID for domain skysedge.co.uk is: //' )-500 -u Administrator -r

Username not found!

what does "pdbedit -Lv username"  shows

I'm not sure what I've done wrong and going through the howtow I can't see where I've messed up.  Wherever it is I've done it consistently because this is the second time I've tried.

ldapsearch shows Administrator does exist:

# extended LDIF

# LDAPv3

# base <> with scope subtree

# filter: (uid=Administrator)

# requesting: ALL

#

# Administrator, People, skysedge.co.uk

dn: uid=Administrator,ou=People,dc=skysedge,dc=co,dc=uk

uid: Administrator

cn: Samba Admin

givenName: Samba

sn: Admin

I don't see any samba object classes included,   If you have configured samba with LDAP backend (FDS), Your user's LDAP information would typically look like

dn: uid=tom,ou=Users,dc=syroidmanor,dc=com
objectClass: top
objectClass: account
objectClass: posixAccount
objectClass: sambaAccount
cn: tom
uid: tom
uidNumber: 500
gidNumber: 100
homeDirectory: /hometom
loginShell: /bin/bash
gecos: User

Any ideas?

Thanks,
