here is the problem i am having with setting up a samba user
i added and entry to the smbusers for aabragan manually because smbsh gave me the following:

Code:
ERROR: can't get smbw shared lock (Invalid argument)


so now that i have an entry in the smbusers file i tried to run smbpasswd and i got the following error once i had typed the passwd in twice

Code:

# smbpasswd -a aabragan
New SMB password:
Retype new SMB password:
LDAPS option set...!
fetch_ldap_pw: no ldap secret retrieved!
ldap_connect_system: Failed to retrieve password for  from secrets.tdb
LDAPS option set...!
fetch_ldap_pw: no ldap secret retrieved!
ldap_connect_system: Failed to retrieve password for  from secrets.tdb
Failed to add entry for user aabragan.
Failed to modify password entry for user aabragan


anyone have any ideas??

Here goes my wild guess: you installed your samba with LDAP support? Do you have ldap in your USE flags? remove it and remerge samba, let's see if that will help :)
