Description aboubacar 2014-09-21 21:15:35 UTC 
OS: Ubuntu Linux 14.04 - 64 bits


when running the command "samba-tool user setpassword Administrator"

I get a prompt for the administrator password; as soon as I type it I get the following error message 


ldb: unable to stat module /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/samba/ldb : No such file or directory
ERROR: Failed to set password for user 'Administrator': (34, "ldb_search: invalid basedn '(null)'")



the command 
kinit administrator@MYDOMAIN.LOCAL

give the error below:
kinit: Preauthentication failed while getting initial credentials

This happening on a new fresh install of samba from source with the follwing commands

a) git clone git://git.samba.org/samba.git /usr/src/samba4/
b) cd /usr/src/samba4/
./configure --enable-debug --enable-selftest
make 
make install

You must be mixing up the samba-tool from your source install in /usr/local/samba with the samba-tool from your system binaries.
