Description Irek Piasecki 2006-07-25 16:35:50 UTC 
Hi.

I just upgraded from samba 3.0.23 to 3.0.23a on my RH 7.3 box.

I can't any more adding winXP SP2 client to my samba 3.0.23a PDC.

I try adding WinXP box to samba PDC, give admin username and password, some seconds later i see: uncorectt username ! when i try agan add, i see: device falure (or similar, these messages are in polish version of XP).

I checked may samba logs and /etc/samba/smbpasswd and i have notioced: machine account were added but in UPPERCASE in smbpasswd but in unix password file machine account were added in lower case, so samba think: there isn't the same account in unix database !

There is my samba log: 

lip 25 18:31:04 serwerbiblo smbd[11450]: [2006/07/25 18:31:04, 0] passdb/pdb_smbpasswd.c:build_sam_account(1201)
lip 25 18:31:04 serwerbiblo smbd[11450]:   build_sam_account: smbpasswd database is corrupt!  username CZYTDLADOR$ with uid 532 is not in unix passwd database!
lip 25 18:31:04 serwerbiblo smbd[11450]: [2006/07/25 18:31:04, 0] passdb/pdb_smbpasswd.c:add_smbfilepwd_entry(617)
lip 25 18:31:04 serwerbiblo smbd[11450]:   add_smbfilepwd_entry: entry with name CZYTDLADOR$ already exists

I have missed some things about uppercase with samba 3.0.23a release or that is bug ?

I reverted to 3.0.23 an i could add my winXP to domain.

See ya !

This patch should fix it.  tdbsam and ldapsamba were updated but not smbpasswd.

Ok, i can't test it right now. I can wait for samba 3.0.23b to rebuild source RPMS.

Thanks Jerry for a quick reply.

Cheers.

If you don't test it, we won't know whether it is 
fixed for a future release.
