- <title>DESCRIPTION</title>
-
- <para>This tool is part of the <citerefentry><refentrytitle>samba</refentrytitle>
- <manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry> suite.</para>
-
- <para>The pdbedit program is used to manage the users accounts
- stored in the sam database and can only be run by root.</para>
-
- <para>The pdbedit tool uses the passdb modular interface and is
- independent from the kind of users database used (currently there
- are smbpasswd, ldap, nis+ and tdb based and more can be added
- without changing the tool).</para>
-
- <para>There are five main ways to use pdbedit: adding a user account,
- removing a user account, modifying a user account, listing user
- accounts, importing users accounts.</para>
