Thank you A-bomb.

I have moved a little bit further and I am the seeing the same errors seen by you.
Same status.

Quoting your email
**********
I ran this again but the output was simply “\00” for the password:
sudo tdbdump /var/db/samba/secrets.tdb

Rebooted but the password stayed as “\00”

*************

Let us hope for more suggestions.

Hello all,

Thanks for the tips and script.
I am trying to install a new X server and this is the
output of tdbdump.

{
key = “SECRETS/SID/GARNET”
data = “\01\04\00\00\00\00\00\05\15\00\00\00\CA\F1\D9\A9Kf\BB\FB\A9\D3\1D\E6\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00”
}

When I run the script this is the error I get. Has anyone seen this?
Will appreciate any suggestions or advice.
