I add users to Samba by editing the smb.conf file, normally located in /usr/local/samba/lib/smb.conf. This file (configured properly) and proper UNIX accounts will take care of Samba access. I've never used the smbusers command, so I can't comment.

Perhaps my 'crude' way works only because our server has
a limited number of Samba users. The smbusers file seems like something useful for larger user populations. Sorry, I only run Samba for a very small office, me Smilie

TDBDUMP(1M)						    System Administration tools 					       TDBDUMP(1M)

NAME
tdbdump - tool for printing the contents of a TDB file SYNOPSIS
tdbdump {filename} DESCRIPTION
This tool is part of the samba(1) suite. tdbdump is a very simple utility that 'dumps' the contents of a TDB (Trivial DataBase) file to standard output in a human-readable format. This tool can be used when debugging problems with TDB files. It is intended for those who are somewhat familiar with Samba internals. VERSION
This man page is correct for version 3.0 of the Samba suite. AUTHOR
The original Samba software and related utilities were created by Andrew Tridgell. Samba is now developed by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar to the way the Linux kernel is developed. The tdbdump man page was written by Jelmer Vernooij. ATTRIBUTES
See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes: +--------------------+----------------------+ | ATTRIBUTE TYPE | ATTRIBUTE VALUE | +--------------------+----------------------+ |Availability | SUNWsmbar, SUNWsmbau | +--------------------+----------------------+ |Interface Stability | External | +--------------------+----------------------+ NOTES
Source for Samba is available on http://opensolaris.org. Samba(7) delivers the set of four SMF(5) services as can be seen from the following example: $ svcs samba wins winbind swat STATE STIME FMRI disabled Apr_21 svc:/network/samba:default disabled Apr_21 svc:/network/winbind:default disabled Apr_21 svc:/network/wins:default disabled Apr_21 svc:/network/swat:default where the services are: "samba" runs the smbd daemon managing the CIFS sessions "wins" runs the nmbd daemon enabling the browsing (WINS) "winbind" runs the winbindd daemon making the domain idmap "swat" Samba Web Administration Tool is a service providing access to browser-based Samba administration interface and on-line documentation. The service runs on software loopback network interface on port 901/tcp, i.e. opening "http://localhost:901/" in browser will access the SWAT service on local machine. Please note: SWAT uses HTTP Basic Authentication scheme where user name and passwords are sent over the network in clear text. In the SWAT case the user name is root. Transferring such sensitive data is advisable only on the software loopback network interface or over secure networks. Samba 3.0 01/19/2009 TDBDUMP(1M)
