+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+
+.PP
+This tool is part of the \fBSamba\fR(7) suite\&.
+
+.PP
+The pdbedit program is used to manage the users accounts stored in the sam database and can only be run by root\&.
+
+.PP
+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)\&.
+
+.PP
+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\&.
+
+.SH "OPTIONS"
+
+.TP
+-L
+This option lists all the user accounts present in the users database\&. This option prints a list of user/uid pairs separated by the ':' character\&.
+
+
+Example: \fBpdbedit -L\fR
+
+
+.nf
+
+sorce:500:Simo Sorce
+samba:45:Test User
+.fi
+
+
+.TP
+-v
+This option enables the verbose listing format\&. It causes pdbedit to list the users in the database, printing out the account fields in a descriptive format\&.
+
+
+Example: \fBpdbedit -L -v\fR
+
+
+.nf
+
+---------------
+username:       sorce
+user ID/Group:  500/500
+user RID/GRID:  2000/2001
+Full Name:      Simo Sorce
+Home Directory: \\\\BERSERKER\\sorce
+HomeDir Drive:  H:
+Logon Script:   \\\\BERSERKER\\netlogon\\sorce\&.bat
+Profile Path:   \\\\BERSERKER\\profile
+---------------
+username:       samba
+user ID/Group:  45/45
+user RID/GRID:  1090/1091
+Full Name:      Test User
+Home Directory: \\\\BERSERKER\\samba
+HomeDir Drive:  
+Logon Script:   
+Profile Path:   \\\\BERSERKER\\profile
+.fi
+
+
+.TP
+-w
+This option sets the "smbpasswd" listing format\&. It will make pdbedit list the users in the database, printing out the account fields in a format compatible with the \fIsmbpasswd\fR file format\&. (see the \fBsmbpasswd\fR(5) for details)
+
+
+Example: \fBpdbedit -L -w\fR
+
+
+sorce:500:508818B733CE64BEAAD3B435B51404EE:D2A2418EFC466A8A0F6B1DBB5C3DB80C:[UX         ]:LCT-00000000:
+samba:45:0F2B255F7B67A7A9AAD3B435B51404EE:BC281CE3F53B6A5146629CD4751D3490:[UX         ]:LCT-3BFA1E8D:
+
+.TP
+-u username
+This option specifies the username to be used for the operation requested (listing, adding, removing)\&. It is \fBrequired\fR in add, remove and modify operations and \fBoptional\fR in list operations\&.
+
+
+.TP
+-f fullname
+This option can be used while adding or modifing a user account\&. It will specify the user's full name\&.
+
+
+Example: \fB-f "Simo Sorce"\fR
+
+
+.TP
+-h homedir
+This option can be used while adding or modifing a user account\&. It will specify the user's home directory network path\&.
+
+
+Example: \fB-h "\\\\BERSERKER\\sorce"\fR
+
+
+.TP
+-D drive
+This option can be used while adding or modifing a user account\&. It will specify the windows drive letter to be used to map the home directory\&.
+
+
+Example: \fB-d "H:"\fR
+
+
+.TP
+-S script
+This option can be used while adding or modifing a user account\&. It will specify the user's logon script path\&.
+
+
+Example: \fB-s "\\\\BERSERKER\\netlogon\\sorce.bat"\fR
+
+
+.TP

+
+
+Example: \fB-p "\\\\BERSERKER\\netlogon"\fR
+
+
+.TP
+-G SID|rid
+This option can be used while adding or modifying a user account\&. It will specify the users' new primary group SID (Security Identifier) or rid\&.
+
+
+Example: \fB-G S-1-5-21-2447931902-1787058256-3961074038-1201\fR
+
+
+.TP
+-U SID|rid
+This option can be used while adding or modifying a user account\&. It will specify the users' new SID (Security Identifier) or rid\&.
+
+
+Example: \fB-U S-1-5-21-2447931902-1787058256-3961074038-5004\fR
+
+
+.TP
+-c account-control
+This option can be used while adding or modifying a user account\&. It will specify the users' account control property\&. Possible flags that can be set are: N, D, H, L, X\&.
+
+
+Example: \fB-c "[X ]"\fR
+
+
+.TP
+-a
+This option is used to add a user into the database\&. This command needs a user name specified with the -u switch\&. When adding a new user, pdbedit will also ask for the password to be used\&.
+
+
+Example: \fBpdbedit -a -u sorce\fR
+.nf
+new password:
+retype new password
+.fi
+
+
+
+.TP
+-r
+This option is used to modify an existing user in the database\&. This command needs a user name specified with the -u switch\&. Other options can be specified to modify the properties of the specified user\&. This flag is kept for backwards compatibility, but it is no longer necessary to specify it\&.
+
+
+.TP
+-m
+This option may only be used in conjunction with the \fI-a\fR option\&. It will make pdbedit to add a machine trust account instead of a user account (-u username will provide the machine name)\&.
+
+
+Example: \fBpdbedit -a -m -u w2k-wks\fR
+
+
+.TP
+-x
+This option causes pdbedit to delete an account from the database\&. It needs a username specified with the -u switch\&.
+
+
+Example: \fBpdbedit -x -u bob\fR
+
+
+.TP
+-i passdb-backend
+Use a different passdb backend to retrieve users than the one specified in smb\&.conf\&. Can be used to import data into your local user database\&.
+
+
+This option will ease migration from one passdb backend to another\&.
+
+
+Example: \fBpdbedit -i smbpasswd:/etc/smbpasswd.old \fR
+
+
+.TP
+-e passdb-backend
+Exports all currently available users to the specified password database backend\&.
+
+
+This option will ease migration from one passdb backend to another and will ease backing up\&.
+
+
+Example: \fBpdbedit -e smbpasswd:/root/samba-users.backup\fR
+
+
+.TP
+-g
+If you specify \fI-g\fR, then \fI-i in-backend -e out-backend\fR applies to the group mapping instead of the user database\&.
+
+
+This option will ease migration from one passdb backend to another and will ease backing up\&.
+
+
+.TP
+-b passdb-backend
+Use a different default passdb backend\&.
+
+
+Example: \fBpdbedit -b xml:/root/pdb-backup.xml -l\fR
+
+
+.TP
+-P account-policy
+Display an account policy
+
+
+Valid policies are: minimum password age, reset count minutes, disconnect time, user must logon to change password, password history, lockout duration, min password length, maximum password age and bad lockout attempt\&.
+
+
+Example: \fBpdbedit -P "bad lockout attempt"\fR
+
+
+.nf
+
+account policy value for bad lockout attempt is 0
+.fi
+
+
+.TP
+-C account-policy-value
+Sets an account policy to a specified value\&. This option may only be used in conjunction with the \fI-P\fR option\&.
+
+
+Example: \fBpdbedit -P "bad lockout attempt" -C 3\fR
+
+
+.nf
+
+account policy value for bad lockout attempt was 0
+account policy value for bad lockout attempt is now 3
+.fi
+
+
+.TP
+-h|--help
+Print a summary of command line options\&.
+
+
+.TP
+-V
+Prints the program version number\&.
+
+
+.TP
+-s <configuration file>
+The file specified contains the configuration details required by the server\&. The information in this file includes server-specific information such as what printcap file to use, as well as descriptions of all the services that the server is to provide\&. See \fIsmb\&.conf\fR for more information\&. The default configuration file name is determined at compile time\&.
+
+
+.TP
+-d|--debug=debuglevel
+\fIdebuglevel\fR is an integer from 0 to 10\&. The default value if this parameter is not specified is zero\&.
+
+
+The higher this value, the more detail will be logged to the log files about the activities of the server\&. At level 0, only critical errors and serious warnings will be logged\&. Level 1 is a reasonable level for day-to-day running - it generates a small amount of information about operations carried out\&.
+
+
+Levels above 1 will generate considerable amounts of log data, and should only be used when investigating a problem\&. Levels above 3 are designed for use only by developers and generate HUGE amounts of log data, most of which is extremely cryptic\&.
+
+
+Note that specifying this parameter here will override the \fIlog level\fR parameter in the \fIsmb\&.conf\fR file\&.
+
+
+.TP
+-l|--logfile=logbasename
+File name for log/debug files\&. The extension \fB"\&.client"\fR will be appended\&. The log file is never removed by the client\&.
+
+
+.SH "NOTES"
+
+.PP
+This command may be used only by root\&.
+
+.SH "VERSION"
+
+.PP
+This man page is correct for version 3\&.0 of the Samba suite\&.
+
+.SH "SEE ALSO"
+
+.PP

+
+.SH "AUTHOR"
+
+.PP
+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\&.
