- <title>DESCRIPTION</title>
-
- <para>This tool is part of the <ulink url="samba.7.html">
- Samba</ulink> 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, modifing a user account, listing user
- accounts, importing users accounts.</para>

- <para>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.</para>
-
- <para>The original Samba man pages were written by Karl Auer.
- The man page sources were converted to YODL format (another
- excellent piece of Open Source software, available at
- <ulink url="ftp://ftp.icce.rug.nl/pub/unix/">
- ftp://ftp.icce.rug.nl/pub/unix/</ulink>) and updated for the Samba 2.0
- release by Jeremy Allison. The conversion to DocBook for
- Samba 2.2 was done by Gerald Carter</para>
