No, can't do it. So, here it is: It seems that the most basic 1-2-3 functionality does not work in samba. How did this shit job go into final version? The most basic functionality being: 1. Adding one user 2. Starting the frigging server Point number two does not work!! Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 0. Start with installing samba. Do not touch the smb.conf file 1. Add user silviu_marin-caea (the unix user exists) getent passwd | grep silviu silviu_marin-caea:x:1000:100:Silviu Marin-Caea:/home/silviu_marin-caea:/bin/bash smbpasswd -a silviu_marin-caea New SMB password: Retype new SMB password: tdbsam_open: Converting version 0.0 database to version 4.0. tdbsam_convert_backup: updated /etc/samba/passdb.tdb file. Added user silviu_marin-caea. 2. start the server: rcsmb start Starting Samba SMB daemon startproc: exit status of parent of /usr/sbin/smbd: 1 done 3. look in log.smbd smbd version 3.5.7-1.17.1-2505-SUSE-SL11.4-x86_64 started.
