Novell Doc: OES2 SP3: Samba Administration Guide - “Could Not Samba Enable the User” Errors in iManager

9.9 “Could Not Samba Enable the User” Errors in iManager

If you see username: Could not Samba enable the user for group SERVERNAME-W-SambaUserGroup errors when using the Samba management plug-in for iManager to add users, check the following:

Samba user objects.

Make sure that iManager is installed on a server running a currently supported operating system (OES 1 Linux, OES 2, or NetWare 6.5 - not NetWare 6.0, NetWare 5.0, or NetWare 4.x).
Add a local replica of the partition containing the Samba user objects to the server that is running the Novell Samba software.
If you have servers running unsupported versions of NetWare in your tree, make sure those servers do not hold a replica of the partition containing the Samba user objects.
